Micha has a gift for creating meaningful connections and delivering lasting impact. From the moment we met, her warmth and authenticity stood out. When I launched my LEADERs Institute, she was one of the first facilitators I called—and for good reason. Her sessions were engaging, powerful, and left an impression that still resonates years later. Micha’s lessons don’t just inspire in the moment—they stick with you.”
“Working with Valued has been an incredible asset. Micha brings a unique blend of warmth, insight, and real-world relevance that deeply resonates with every audience. Her sessions go beyond surface-level conversation—she challenges people to think differently and take meaningful action.

They were thoughtful partners every step of the way, which made bringing them into my programming a no-brainer.

Katie Ervin
CEO at Catalyst Development

Thank you for your inspiring, insightful, and energizing session with our young team. You helped these young women to relax and guided them to learn each other’s true persona off the court. This led to our players staying focused throughout the season while continuing to build and grow together. We really appreciate the difference you made for our team and in each of their lives.
Micha made this session relaxing and personal to a young group of women. They got to know themselves and each other better before the season started.
I loved the personal touch. Keeping it relevant to the needs of what our team needed. Our team was young and all new to each other. Thank you for helping these ladies come out of their comfort zones.

Janette Burgin
Head Women’s Basketball Coach at Culver Stockton College

I first met Micha Mims from Valued at a workshop she delivered. I hung on every word – she delivered a difficult topic with concepts that made it easy to understand, relate to, and take action on.
I immediately knew I wanted to work with her. Through several conversations we found a way to bring our skills together, and applied them to another client of Micha’s. The result… two speakers, three companies, hundreds of attendees… all challenging each other to grow while learning together. This is what Micha does: she sees the opportunity, and brings the right partners together to deliver an incredible experience.
I believe I am a more thoughtful leader because of Micha. She serves as a reminder that there are always new and unique perspectives to consider, and the best learning happens when there is space for each of those to thrive.
Micha and her work with Valued makes things fun. She know that perfection isn’t the goal, it is about engagement, growth, and learning.

St. Louis REALTORS retained the services of VALUED three years in a row for their ” Can We Talk?” series. Micha Mims was a fantastic speaker for the series. She was easy to work with, presented fresh material and perspectives each time she presented, and managed to deliver material in an empathetic, and non-judgmental way that made participants feel open to share their thoughts.
Valued has helped St. Louis REALTORS bring awareness to issues that underrepresented groups face.
Micha was very accessible. We were able to talk through the purpose and anticipated impact of the planned seminar to deliver a customized experience for our participants.

Director of Athletics at Southwest Minnesota State University

Valued definitely lived up to their name! Micha Mims was professional, knowledgeable, and caring during the entire process. She did a great job of listening and observing, then tailoring a plan to our needs. She met with our team as a whole, then broke us out into the smaller teams and one-on-ones over the course of about a month. Her insight and expertise was instrumental in our team’s growth and ability to work together towards a common goal.
Valued facilitated difficult conversations that led to massive growth. We all learned about ourselves and each other, our working styles, and how to work better together. The coaching with Valued made our team a more cohesive unit and we were able to be more productive in a happier environment.
I enjoyed the fact that Micha put so much energy and thoughtfulness into helping our team grow as individuals and a team. We could tell that she was truly invested in helping us. I highly recommend Valued for your coaching needs.

Working with Micha was an enriching experience. She was able to strategically drive and connect the needs of her audience with the quality of educational content desired.
Working in partnership with a Leadership Series helped me to explore more workplace applications for adaptive approaches we can take to best support neurodivergent employees. I learned about experiences happening in diverse working environments, which will help me to better support future clients.
Working with Micha was smooth and seamless. She well prepared me for the audience I would speak with and set clear expectations.

Jazmin Webster
Workforce Development Program Manager at Your Quality Life Services

Working with Valued was an experience that went above and beyond my expectations. They are excellent to work with and present information in a manner that is effective and applicable in every facet of life.
Working with Micha and Valued brought our team closer together. She challenged us to think deeper and explore how we can become better for ourselves and others.
The information presented in the Real Colors Workshop was practical and engaged our team in “real life” situations. I’ve been in other presentations with similar content, but Micha had a way of connecting this information on a level that was easy to comprehend and apply to each of us individually.

Allison Monson

Tremendous Message

Micha addressed our team and what an inspiring message. She is enthusiastic, driven, powerful, and engaging. Professionally her message is as meaningful on the court as it would be at a law firm. Personally she is a very impressive young lady whose drive, passion and determination comes through in her message. I would highly recommend her presentation to coaches, managers and even parents.

Inspirational

It was a pleasure to have Micha Mims speak to my girls, she was early on the zoom call to prepare to meet them and was very engaging, my team continued to talk about the meeting the next day at practice and told the other girls they missed a good word. Coach was able to let them know that it was about hard work and to fight for what they want, she also provided insight on what college coaches are looking for in athletes. I can’t wait until the playoffs so she can come back and motivate them. I would highly recommend and feel comfortable having her speak to a group, team, or organization.
