What does it really take to build an eight-figure brand through video content? In this episode, the Uncensored Entrepreneurs sat down with powerhouse Dr. Kimberly Olson—TEDx speaker, bestselling author, and founder of the Goal Digger Girl brand—to talk about the real story behind her success. From struggling with postpartum depression and alcohol abuse to building a multimillion-dollar business and celebrating seven years of sobriety, Kimberly shares the mindset shifts, strategies, and consistency that fueled her transformation.
They covered how she built her brand from scratch, what it means to “go live before you’re ready,” and why short-form video content is still one of the most powerful ways to grow your audience and income. This conversation goes far beyond marketing—it’s about resilience, service, and the courage to show up fully, flaws and all.
Key Takeaways:
Success starts with inner work, not just strategy: Kimberly’s journey shifted when she addressed the real obstacle—her self-worth.
Consistency trumps perfection every time: A weekly live with one viewer (sometimes her husband’s coworker!) laid the foundation for an eight-figure brand.
Your brand clarity is your growth engine: Know who you are, who you help, and how—everything else gets easier from there.
Don’t stop at the six-week mark: Most people quit before the magic happens. The breakthrough usually hits around week eight.
Serving builds trust; selling comes naturally: Give freely, offer real value, and your audience will lean in before you ever pitch.
