Kim is an Earth Angel and a Light being. Such a kind and warm person, always finding the right answer to any question I have and solution to any trouble I am dealing with in my life. Openupwide offers so much more than any other web site I have encountered, There are wise teachings and messages for each and every one of us. In addition to her mediumship, she is also a shamanic healer and that was the most amazing experience in my life. Thank you Kim for revealing the mysteries of life and the universe to me through your mediumship and wisdom. My life has not been the same since you came onto my path and I am so grateful for that. I feel blessed. Of course there is also her husband Gorazd who is making sure the Openupwide is functioning perfectly and he is doing all the hard technological work. Together they make a great Team!
