Boundaries, Burnout, and Building a PPC Agency: Kim Wright’s Story of Reinvention
After years in high-pressure agency roles, working in male-dominated industries and managing multimillion-dollar ad budgets, Kim Wright reached a breaking point. She knew the burnout wasn’t sustainable — and she knew she wanted more control, more integrity, and more freedom in her work.
Today, she’s the founder of Big Pecan PPC, a boutique Google Ads agency where she helps clients across the U.S. and internationally — all from her home in Texas (complete with a few cows on her ranch).
In this candid conversation, Kim shares how she overcame self-doubt, found her voice, and built a business around her values. If you’ve ever questioned whether you’re “qualified enough” to go out on your own, this episode is for you.
1️⃣ How Kim navigated burnout and a toxic work culture in the automotive space
2️⃣ The mentors who helped her rebuild her confidence
3️⃣ Her decision to leave a director-level agency role and go freelance
4️⃣ Why boundaries and mutual respect are now non-negotiable in her business
5️⃣ The mindset shift that helped her finally believe she was ready
6️⃣ Her take on the future of Google Ads, AI search updates, and PPC trends

Squarespace — The all-in-one platform I recommend for building your first business website. Easy to customize, beautifully designed, and no coding required.
Airtable — My go-to tool for organizing client projects, content calendars, and podcast production. If spreadsheets and Dropbox had a baby, it would be Airtable.
