Today on The Joy Curator Podcast I’m delighted to have my dear friend, Gary Kilmer on the show. Originally from a small town in the Midwest, Gary is an author, designer, creative consultant, teacher, speaker, and performer. Throughout his three-decade career in the classroom, onstage, inspiring creativity, and connecting with people from around the world, he has dedicated himself to the art of storytelling, helping others discover beauty in the everyday. Gary’s writing is filled with warmth, humor, and a gentle rhythm that invites reflection. Now based in Las Vegas, he continues to design, create, and inspire through his consulting work and creative life. His book, The Comforting Theory of Time, reflects his belief in kindness, resilience, and the quiet strength of embracing change. He believes we are all works in progress, moving forward, growing stronger, and evolving with each passing moment. He finds inspiration in simple moments, quiet wonder, and the endless possibility of what comes next, holding onto the belief that the next story is just around the corner.
Tune in as we chat about the unique way we met and became instant friends and how even in life’s most complicated and difficult times we can all be comforted in knowing that this too shall pass.

Curating a life of JOY that is authentic, bold and purposeful takes courage and confidence. Welcome to The Joy Curator Podcast. I'm your host, Kimberly Joy Evans, owner of JOY Consulting + Experiences, girl mama and cocktail connoisseur. With over 20 years in the event planning industry, I inspire individuals, companies and organizations to infuse joy into the details by helping them plan purpose filled events. Join me for happy hour as I bring you conversations with entrepreneurs, professionals, tastemakers and extraordinary world changers who have gotten where they are through their authenticity, truth telling and a commitment to showing up. I'm here to show you how to expand your confidence, and your life and business as I navigate it alongside you, even when it's hard. No matter who you are, where you are from or what you do for a living, my hope is that you will feel challenged to look within yourself, feel inspired, exchange your fears for courage and know that you have a choice on how you show up every single day, so let's curate some JOY!
