Hello, I’m Kimberly Wilson.

I'm so happy to meet you!

I’m a psychotherapist in private practice, president of the Pigs & Pugs Project, and host of the Tranquility Coterie. When I’m not here on Substack, you’ll find me sipping matcha, dreaming of Paris, buying more books than I could possibly read (you, too?!), cuddling rescue pugs, or in ballet class (even after a hip replacement!).

For over two decades, I’ve devoted myself to the art of tranquility. Through my books, podcast, online courses, and virtual events, I support midlife women in finding more balance, beauty, and meaning in their everyday lives.

With master’s degrees in women’s studies and social work, I’ve been featured in The Washington Post, Cosmopolitan, Yoga Journal, Huffington Post, Bella Grace, and more. I live in Washington, DC—and always keep a suitcase ready for Paris.
