is a dentist by trade and relationship expert by nature. Her interest in how committed relationships work — and how individuals can make them work better — led her to a career as a compassionate relationship coach for married women.

Relationship coach Dr. Heavenly Kimes is a business powerhouse with a long list of credentials to her name.

While she still runs her Atlanta dental practice to pay the bills, Heavenly enjoys fixing hearts just as much as fixing smiles. Her experience juggling her career and working alongside her husband, who’s a top surgeon, has given her insight into the attitudes, behaviors, and principles that build a lasting and fulfilling marriage.

“First and foremost, I started studying relationships for myself,” Dr. Heavenly said. “I learned all these things, and I was thinking ‘A lot of people must know these principles’ — but they just don’t.”

Relationship-building isn’t taught in schools, so Dr. Heavenly has taken it upon herself to give out advice via a growing coaching practice, a best-selling book, and weekly radio shows. Her straight-to-the-point relationship guidance provides women with practical strategies to catch and keep a man’s attention.

Today, Dr. Heavenly is known for her work as an inspirational speaker, author, and relationship expert. Millions of viewers recognize her from the Bravo cable network reality show “Married to Medicine,” which focuses on the wives of men who work in the medical field. Dr. Heavenly has been happily married for more than 35 years, so she can speak with authority on how to cultivate a healthy work-life balance with that special someone by your side.

“It’s a new age, and I know a lot of things have changed, but mainly I believe that those things that worked in the old days still work today,” she said. “That means courting, acting and being respectful, and knowing our positions as husbands and wives — some people are trying to change their roles, and it just does not work.”

If you’re in need of some real talk about relationships, The Open and Honest Show with Dr. Heavenly and Dr. Jackie is the radio show for you. Every Friday, two relationship-savvy women go on the air to bluntly discuss hot topics in the dating world, including what to look for in a potential husband and how to show appreciation for your partner. It’s an educational and entertaining hour that has listeners reflecting on their lives one minute and busting out laughing the next.

Additionally, Dr. Heavenly’s blog promotes her perspective on marriage, relationships, and sex in engaging articles that showcase her no-filter coaching style. She isn’t squeamish about tackling personal subjects, including “Do You Prefer the Bulge in the Front or the Bulge in the Back?” and offers relatable opinions from the perspective of a woman who’s been on the relationship road for a long time.

“My absolute top tip is to do what works best for you and your family — and what makes you happy!” she wrote in a guide for successful moms.

Watch on

Dr. Heavenly often gets straight to the point when giving out advice to her blog readers and her radio show listeners. Her perspective on marriage may seem old-fashioned, but she believes it’s important to stick to what’s worked in the past.

Whether she’s leading couples counseling sessions or answering a listener’s question on her radio show, Dr. Heavenly relies on traditional values and her own experiences as a married woman to shape her advice.

Many of the principles that Dr. Heavenly espouses come straight from the teachings of the Bible. “I’m a spiritual person,” she said, “and I believe the Bible gives us all we need for a successful relationship.”

In January 2016, Dr. Heavenly published her first self-help book, The Business of Love, to explain to women how business skills can translate into relationship success. The book details her conversations with several women who are leaders in their industries, including a Fortune 500 executive making over six figures, and yet struggle to maintain loving relationships.

In “The Business of Love,” Dr. Heavenly Kimes draws from the relationship experiences of six women to give practical advice.

“Love like a business. You can’t just make a totally emotional decision,” Dr. Heavenly explained. “When you make that ultimate merger, it can’t just be for emotional reasons.”

Throughout the book, Heavenly uses the real-life experiences of women in the dating world to show how people manage relationships and what advice she would give them. The tone is friendly and upbeat, but the 165-page book deals with serious issues impacting husbands and wives everywhere.

The Business of Love is an important guidebook for career-oriented women who want to find and keep a good man.

“Many women are successful in business or their career,” she said, “but they need help with building strong, sustainable relationships.”

Glowing feedback from her listeners, readers, clients, and fans keeps Dr. Heavenly motivated day in and day out. She said she loves hearing from someone who took her advice to heart and saw immediate relationship improvements because of it.

Dr. Heavenly’s Instagram page is overflowing with compliments from her most adoring fans.

After 35 years of marriage, Dr. Heavenly has learned a thing or two about what makes relationships work. Her clinical and straightforward approach to relationship coaching has helped thousands of individuals improve their love connections.

Dr. Heavenly’s expertise and charisma have earned her many accolades as well as a main role in a Bravo TV reality show. In the coming months, the relationship expert hopes to expand her influence and assist female daters by launching a revolutionary dating app called Piq. The app allows users to screen who sees their photos by asking icebreaker or deal-breaker questions. Heavenly said this app will support values-based men and women who want more than just a hookup.

In her book, radio show, blog, and coaching sessions, Heavenly dispenses practical takeaways about love and relationships. “I give advice all the time,” she said. “I address dating, marriage, sex, relationships — every aspect of relationships.”
