Break the rules that never belonged to you-
and build what’s next.
Lead from clarity- and unleash the full force of who you are.
Kim Bolourtchi steps onto a stage and something shifts — clarity rises, truth gets louder, and leaders remember who they are.
Here’s what happens when people stop leading from expectation-
and start leading from truth:
They speak with more conviction.
They stand with more presence.
They choose with more certainty.
They move through the room with all of themselves available.
The energy shifts.
Possibility expands.
Connection deepens.
What was stuck begins to move.
What felt heavy becomes clear.
What once felt out of reach comes within grasp.
And it doesn’t happen through effort —
it happens because the rules that once constrained them no longer define them.
This is the shift Kim creates — in the room, and long after.

Meet Kim
Kim Bolourtchi built a life by following all the rules — the professional ones, the cultural ones, the unspoken ones.
By day, she was a lawyer leading high-growth organizations.
By night, she was a competitive Latin dancer, living in the part of herself she kept hidden to succeed.
On paper, she was impressive.
In reality, she was constricted — performing a version of herself the rules required, while her full brilliance waited offstage.
Everything changed the day those two worlds collided in front of the Missouri Supreme Court.
In that moment, Kim discovered the truth underlying all extraordinary leadership:
The parts of you that don’t fit the rules are the ones that set you free.
Since then, Kim has made it her life’s work to help others break the rules they never chose, reclaim the clarity they’ve been trained to suppress, and lead with the power and presence that only come from truth.
Whether she’s on a keynote stage, in the studio as a dancer, or teaching leaders to access more of themselves, her message is the same:
When you stop shrinking to meet expectations, you unlock everything you’ve been capable of all along.

What Leadership Looks Like when you
Strategically Break the Rules
When people stop contorting themselves to fit expectations and start leading from truth, everything changes.
They communicate with more clarity.
They decide with more conviction.
They show up with more presence.
They access ideas and capacities they’ve been sitting on for years.
Teams move differently.
Conversations deepen.
Momentum returns.
Innovation actually has room to breathe.
Not because they were taught more strategies —
but because they reclaimed the parts of themselves that strategy alone can’t touch.
This is what happens when leaders get Strategically Unruly™.
The work gets sharper.
The impact gets bigger.
The next level becomes possible.
