If your value was obvious… would you still explain it this much?

I’m recording this from a conference where I felt out of my element—and it exposed something I see in high-achievers all the time: we don’t over-explain because we’re unclear. We over-explain because we’re trying to protect ourselves.

In this episode, I walk you through the exact questions I asked myself in real time—questions that separate clarity from justification, and confidence from performance. We’re talking about why silence can feel risky, how childhood and culture train us to “earn your place,” and what it looks like to trust your value before anyone validates it.

If you’ve ever left a conversation thinking, “Why did I say all that?” this one’s for you.

What if manifestation worked the same way ordering your favorite sandwich does?

In this episode of The Positive Voice, Kimberly Houston breaks down why vague desires create vague results—and how specificity is the missing link between intention and alignment.

Using a simple (and surprisingly powerful) sandwich-order analogy, Kimberly walks you through how to define what you actually want in your business, your life, and your identity as a founder—without guilt, justification, or discounting yourself in the process.

You’ll hear why:

• “I just want success” isn’t a strategy
• Clarity creates emotional safety—for you and your audience
• Discounting yourself is often a worthiness issue, not a pricing one
• Growth requires imagination, not just effort
• Your business can be successful without hijacking your nervous system

This episode also introduces mirror work as a practical, grounded tool for building self-trust, expanding your vision, and becoming the loudest, most supportive voice in your own head.

If your business hasn’t grown lately, this conversation asks the deeper question: have you?

🎯 Listen if you’re ready to stop manifesting in generalities and start placing clear, aligned orders with your life and business.

What if everything you’ve been working toward isn’t about doing more—but about becoming more aligned?

In this episode of Kitchen Table Dreams: Founder’s Journal, Chef Kimberly I. Houston invites you into a heartfelt car conversation about growth, alignment, and access.

Listen in as she shares:
• Why alignment—not hustle—is the key to your next level.
• How to audit who has access to you (and who you have access to).
• The real reason doing more isn’t always the answer.
• How to turn what you’re great at into a sustainable solution for others.
• Why the company you keep determines the opportunities you attract.

If you’re a creative, a culinary entrepreneur, or someone navigating what’s next—this episode is a reminder that you don’t have to rush the process. You are already on the path to your highest good.
