ABOUT
This platform isn’t about doing business as usual; it’s about doing business on purpose, for profit, with POWER.
It’s the home for solo consultants, strategists, specialists, service professionals, and bold thinkers who are ready to stop blending in and start stepping up as leaders.
At its core, Notes on Power is my unofficial, unauthorised, unaccredited, “no cap” PhD on power theories in advisory-based business.
It's where I try things, mess up spectacularly, and figure out what actually works—so you can take the insights, skip the screw-ups, and move faster toward becoming the go-to name in your industry.
Why Does Notes on Power Exist?
Because power isn’t something you’re born with—it’s something you accumulate as you build a business that works beautifully with who you are.
One thing I do know for sure is that power isn’t binary. It’s not “you’ve got it or you don’t.” Real, legitimate power develops gradually—step by intentional step. You gain it through your actions, your positioning, and by showing up so consistently that everyone around you begins to see you as the Player who leads the charge (whether you choose to do so from the front, the back or somewhere in the middle).
Notes on Power exists to help you shortcut that process by giving you actionable insights rooted in one huge belief: power isn’t something to fear—it’s something to hone and wield responsibly to shape your industry, serve your clients, and leave your space better than you found it. And yes, sometimes I go rogue while testing my theories, and make a glorious mess…but every experiment brings clarity and wins that we can ALL learn from.
If you’re ready to ride with me as we rewrite the rules, break the boundaries of business, and start shaking things up in your industry so you can be seen as the one to watch, Notes on Power is where it begins.
Who’s Behind Notes on Power?
That’ll be me. I’m Coach Kym—aka Chief Troublemaker, unapologetic rule-breaker and your guide to going against the tide. My role is part kingmaker and part chaos agent as I build the solo business titans of tomorrow.
I’ve spent the last 20+ years navigating power dynamics across industries: as an ex-Nike athlete, corporate consultant, brand strategist, and now as the creator of Project Power Player. At every step, one thing has been clear:
Power isn’t a weapon. It’s a tool.
My mission? To build Players who respect ethical boundaries use power positively to create deeper impact—for their clients, their communities, and their industries.
I’m here to challenge what you think you know, help you reframe your brilliance, and give you the play by play on how to turn your expertise into the undeniable authority you deserve.
What is Project Power Player?
Glad you asked. Project Power Player is the end of being overlooked.
It’s where you set the tone, rewrite expectations, quit apologising for your expertise, and make damn sure your industry remembers your name.
Project Power Player is a bit like an accelerator…if accelerators were a private, invitation-only rebellion for soloists who are tired of being the industry’s best-kept secret.
Here, we take you from “decent at what you do” to “the one they can’t shut up about” using my signature Six Stages of Power pathway.
For twelve months, it’s you, me, and absolute focus—tearing up the “blend in” blueprint you’ve been inadvertently following and building your industry authority one on-purpose power move at a time.
This is bigger than “personal branding.”
This is where you start commanding the room, naming your price, and stacking the real, industry respect you deserve.
We’re not waiting for recognition any more. We’re building a reputation that has your perfect-fit people lining up for YOU.
Project Power Player is the jump from “getting what you’re given” to “getting what you want” and you get to choose whether you do that with stealth or a steamroller.
Either way, you’ll have me right by your side making sure you keep racking up the results with receipts while setting a new standard for your industry.
