Hi, I'm Kim Carnegie — a Wholistic Neurogrowth Learning Success and Life Coach, passionate about helping students unlock their full potential and thrive in every area of life.
After 30 years in public education as a special education teacher, reading specialist, and administrator, I saw firsthand how many children were slipping through the cracks. Despite the best efforts of teachers and parents, the traditional system simply isn't set up to meet every student's unique learning and emotional needs.
As a parent myself, I had to find different strategies to help my own children thrive — and now, I'm honored to bring those strategies, backed by neuroscience, to the families I serve today.
Through my certification in Wholistic Neurogrowth Coaching (Success Codes and ICF accredited) and my background in sociology, special education, reading, and educational administration, I've combined decades of expertise with innovative, brain-based methods to create real, lasting change.

What Makes My Approach Different
At Guiding Minds Learning Solutions, we go beyond academics. Wholistic coaching means nurturing every part of your child — their intellect, their emotions, their creativity, and their social growth. I create personalized learning experiences that honor your child's individuality — their strengths, their challenges, and their incredible potential. Instead of "one-size-fits-all" solutions, I use tools like brain-based exercises, the MetaLearning DeStress Method, emotional regulation strategies, mindset work, and goal setting — all designed to meet your child exactly where they are.
This means your child will not only learn better — they'll feel better.
You'll start to see:
✔ Reduced emotional and behavioral blocks
✔ Increased flow, focus, and motivation
✔ Better decision-making and critical thinking skills
✔ Stronger relationships and emotional resilience
✔ Real academic success rooted in confidence and independence
