Celebrating the Extraordinary Journey of Coni Meyers - All funds will go to support Kits4Kids

Constance Kay Meyers was born on October 14, 1948, to LeVerne “Shorty” and Mildred “Millie” Meyers. Growing up on a farm in Kearney, Nebraska, alongside her brother Gary and twin sisters, Debbie and Donna, Coni learned the values of hard work and family traditions in a one-room schoolhouse. Though she recalls being a quiet farm girl who faced early health challenges, those years formed the foundation of a woman who would eventually become a force of nature.

A Trailblazer in Life and Business

 Tech Pioneer: After high school, she was a pioneer in the computing world, operating the first IBM 360 Model 20 in Kansas City.

 Sales Powerhouse: In 1979, she was named Rookie of the Year at Metropolitan Life Insurance and later became a sales manager with a focus on a brand new retirement program called 401K.

 Entrepreneurial Visionary: Coni co-founded WIN Home Inspections (formerly AMER) and OnlineEd, transforming both into national enterprises.

 Dynamic Leader: By her late 20s, she had risen to General Manager of a multi-company Honda enterprise.

Her Living Legacy: Kits4Kids and Preparedness

Of all her achievements, Coni’s most profound mission is ensuring that the next generation is safe and resilient. Her work as a FEMA inspector—which took her across the country to help disaster victims—sparked a deep realization of the need for better crisis education. To fulfill this vision, she founded the CKM Preparedness Foundation, where her Kits4Kids initiative serves as the cornerstone of her legacy. This initiative focuses on:

 Empowering Children: Educating kids on how to be crisis-prepared and sustainable in their daily lives.

 Life-Saving Tools: Providing kits equipped with essential items like flashlights and GPS trackers to help children stay safe during emergencies.

 Community Resilience: Training individuals and businesses to mitigate risks and navigate recovery with confidence.

Turning Moments into Movements

A signature of Coni’s life is her philosophy of "Crystalline Moments" — the belief that even the most difficult crossroads contain gifts waiting to be discovered. Following the passing of her beloved husband, Tom, in 2011, Coni stepped into a new vision for her life. She transitioned to becoming a Certified Dreambuilder Coach and 8-time international bestselling author. Through her books like Crystalline Moments and Resilience in the Storm, she has mentored thousands, helping them find purpose in the face of loss.

An Abundance of Love

Beyond her professional accolades, Coni’s greatest pride is her family. She is the proud mother of her three sons — Jeffrey, Steven, and Michael Scott — and gained four more children through her marriage to Tom: Carrie, Sherrie, Tom Jr., and Tracie. Today, she celebrates the beautiful tapestry of her family, including her many grandchildren, and the joy of seeing her children live lives of success and happiness.

"I have an abundance of love in my life and that abundance helps me to continue to help others with their visions... thank you to all of you for being a part of my journey" - Coni Meyers
