Welcome to another episode of #RealLife! It was a true honour to sit down with Kim Parker, sculptor and writer based in the Midlands of KwaZulu-Natal. A self-made creative entrepreneur, Kim has transformed her passion into a meaningful and sustainable career — a journey defined by vision, perseverance, and belief in her craft.
In this conversation, she shares insights into her creative process, sources of inspiration, the art of building a business, and the importance of impact and legacy. One of the most powerful moments for me was her advice to her younger self:
“If you believe it, you can do it. Your mind dictates your limits. Do not limit yourself.”
When asked what success means to her today, Kim reflected that true success lies in being able to support others — emotionally, physically, or financially.
That our greatest sense of worth comes not from the “white picket fence,” but from connection and giving. If you’re a creative entrepreneur — or aspiring to be one — this story is for you.
