Host on Uncomfortable Conversations
Kim Bode has been called “too much,” aggressive, abrasive – the usual labels for loud women. She’d rather say the uncomfortable truth, own her ADHD, and help people stop calling soft skills soft and start stepping into their Big Deal Energy™.
She founded 8THIRTYFOUR nearly 20 years ago and built Big Deal Energy™ – personal branding with a shot of tequila. She’s earned honors like Forbes Top 200 PR Firm, Michigan Woman-Owned Small Business of the Year, and 100+ industry awards along the way. She’s spoken at the Women in Defense National Conference, ChallengeHER, and Failure Lab; serves on the boards of the Small Business Association of Michigan and Women in Defense National Council; and has been featured in Fast Company, Inc., Entrepreneur, and more.
Bode has been called a force, weird, a wrecking ball – one guy called her real, raw, and relatable. However you describe her – she’s unforgettable.
