2024 Prestigious Women Awards Honoree: Kim Kent

Meet Kim Kent, Well-Being Coordinator at Team Horner Group

In Kim Kent’s business role, she created a well-being program for the 600-person company to enrich the lives of her teammates. The “Color Me Healthy “well-being program is very robust, with offerings for all aspects of wellness for the mind, body, and spirit. The success of the program is very much due to the fact that teammate volunteers choose what programs and services are offered and have the power to make the decisions. While Kent loves being able to nurture teammates with Color Me Healthy, she yearned to serve the elderly in the community. She was astounded to learn that 65% of seniors in centers do not get a single visit in a year. Kent had to get involved and became a volunteer for Heart2Heart Outreach of South Florida, visiting a nursing home weekly. The work Heart2Heart was doing captured Kent’s heart and soul, and she became more involved. She is now the president of the board of directors. Helping others in the community became Kent’s passion, so when asked to be on the board of StrikeForce421, a Christian women’s giving circle, she jumped in. Now, Kent is thrilled to help with the work of many kinds of local ministries. In April this year, she will retire from her job and can’t wait to spend even more time serving the community.

BIOGRAPHY

Drew Limsky joined Lifestyle Media Group in August 2020 as Editor-in-Chief of South Florida Business & Wealth. His first issue of SFBW, October 2020, heralded a reimagined structure, with new content categories and a slew of fresh visual themes. “As sort of a cross between Forbes and Robb Report, with a dash of GQ and Vogue,” Limsky says, “SFBW reflects South Florida’s increasingly sophisticated and dynamic business and cultural landscape.”

Limsky, an avid traveler, swimmer and film buff who holds a law degree and Ph.D. from New York University, likes to say, “I’m a doctor, but I can’t operate—except on your brand.” He wrote his dissertation on the nonfiction work of Joan Didion. Prior to that, Limsky received his B.A. in English, summa cum laude, from Emory University and earned his M.A. in literature at American University in connection with a Masters Scholar Award fellowship.

Limsky came to SFBW at the apex of a storied career in journalism and publishing that includes six previous lead editorial roles, including for some of the world’s best-known brands. He served as global editor-in-chief of Lexus magazine, founding editor-in-chief of custom lifestyle magazines for Cadillac and Holland America Line, and was the founding editor-in-chief of Modern Luxury Interiors South Florida. He also was the executive editor for B2B magazines for Acura and Honda Financial Services, and he served as travel editor for Conde Nast. Magazines under Limsky’s editorship have garnered more than 75 industry awards.

He has also written for many of the country’s top newspapers and magazines, including The New York Times, Washington Post, Los Angeles Times, Miami Herald, Boston Globe, USA Today, Worth, Robb Report, Afar, Time Out New York, National Geographic Traveler, Men’s Journal, Ritz-Carlton, Elite Traveler, Florida Design, Metropolis and Architectural Digest Mexico. His other clients have included Four Seasons, Acqualina Resort & Residences, Yahoo!, American Airlines, Wynn, Douglas Elliman and Corcoran. As an adjunct assistant professor, Limsky has taught journalism, film and creative writing at the City University of New York, Pace University, American University and other colleges.
