Today’s episode welcomes Kimberly Akers, Owner and CEO of Amada Senior Care in Mesa, Arizona.
In 2015, Kimberly opened up the 38th Amada Senior Care franchise with her business partner and longtime friend Kris Patmos. When asked about her thoughts back when she began her Amada journey, Kimberly recalls feeling like a maverick - taking on a new challenge that hasn’t been established to the point where success is a guarantee. While the idea of franchising into a newer business model is scary to some, Kimberly saw the potential in the business model and welcomed the challenge ahead.
Before moving into Healthcare, Kimberly had a long and esteemed career in the education space. She taught math for 18 years before moving on to Pearson to sell math textbooks. During that time she went through an unfortunate and life changing divorce and had to make a ton of sacrifices to make ends meet. She was a single mother of 3, which made shopping for discounts and scrupulous spending a part of everyday life. Kimberly knew that something had to change and opportunities to recover wouldn’t appear out of thin air. She took it upon herself to make a huge life change and regain control of her own destiny.
