Kim Fawcett is the President and Founder of Awaken, a spiritual wellness practice offering spiritually grounding wellness retreats, workshops and coaching. Kim loves Jesus and the very deep spiritual truths that are found in His teachings. She also knows and respects other well-known spiritual teachers and guides and finds beauty in the diversity of teachings found in most of the world’s spiritual practices and religions.

Kim guides and speaks about her experiences with spiritual truths through the lens of a professionally diverse career, and life as a wife, mother, daughter, and friend. Kim’s career has spanned 30 years and taken her through seasons in both government and non-profit leadership. As a state representative in Connecticut, Kim was known to be, “Your Voice for Change”. Elected at just 35 years old and one of the only women serving in the legislature with school aged children, Kim’s career has always involved navigating challenges and finding balance.

Most recently, as a non-profit executive Kim’s team coined the term “spirit lead professionals” in an effort to align daily with their professional “callings”. Leading her organization through COVID, leadership changes and a $14 million capital campaign, Kim grew through the trials and learned to rely on her faith and spiritual practices to inspire clarity and confidence.

Kim has master’s degree in Legislative Affairs from The George Washington University and at 52 years returned to school to receive a second masters in Transformative Spirituality from the Asian School of Development and Cross Cultural Studies. She is certified a Guided Meditation specialist and Immersive Experience Leader and utilizes her training in Integrated Somatic Trauma Therapy and Integrative Energy Therapy.

Kim’s journey into the mystery of spiritual teachings began at the age of 16 when, through the sudden death of her mother, she began to experience spiritual encounters and become intuitively aware that there was something more than just the physical life we live. Kim’s life mission is to be a source of positive energy and enthusiasm while helping every person carve out their own spiritual path that awakens their soul and aligns them with their life purpose.

She is a practitioner of daily prayer and meditation as she seeks to tap into His wisdom through silence, solitude and nature. Kim is the proud mother of three amazing adult children. One who recently returned from serving with the United States Peace Corps in Africa. Kim lives in Connecticut, travels extensively and seeks the water and nature where ever she goes. Her favorite spiritual practice always includes a long ocean walk and the deep peace and healing it provides.
