RESTING AT SEA 2027
FOR COURT REPORTERS & FRIENDS
Ask Yourself...
When is the last time I put a pause on everything and everybody?
When was the last time I sat still, in silence and solitude?
If my body could talk, would it tell a horror story?
Am I in captivity to activity?
Do I perform my job to the detriment of my own health?
Has code-switching to my professional self become exhausting?
Do I invest in myself so that I can rest?
Am I so busy that I can no longer enjoy the things that I love?
Do I feel guilty while resting?
If you answered "YES to one or more of the above, you should join us at Resting at Sea for Court Reporters & Friends 2026!"
your journey awaits

MEET KIM XAVIER
About the Host
Kim Xavier has been a court reporter since 1994 and has been supporting court reporters and student reporters in some way, without pause, for over 25 years! She has been honored to mentor students and new reporters, to train new reporters and veteran reporters, to lead by example through volunteerism and active participation in many court reporting organizations. She has been blessed with opportunities to encourage, motivate, and uplift the profession as a whole through her gift of STENOvational speaking at seminars and conferences around the country.
Kim hosted her first Boot Camp for Court in 2004 and 20 years later, she still provides that course for colleagues who are new to the profession as well as colleagues who are transitioning to court work. The Boot Camp was her first glimpse of how court reporters worry and stress over the job, the unique skillsets required, and the need to be great at what we do. Since that first program, Kim has curated and hosted many more Xperiences for mentees, colleagues, and friends; events to have fun, to wind down, and to fellowship with each other! She now recognizes that subconsciously, she was always searching for ways to provide outlets for stress relief and empowerment. It finally dawned on her that she was creating ways for court reporters to R.E.S.T., if only for an hour or two.
Life-changing events in her own life made her realize that it’s time to expand her gift of bringing others together, and this cruise retreat Xperience is just one of many XTRAordinary Xperiences on the horizon! So welcome to Resting at Sea, the Cruise Retreat for Court Reporters and Friends. This will be an XTRAordinary Xperience with Kim Xavier! You don’t want to miss it!
Customize the RESTcation you want to have and get the REST you deserve!
You won’t find another event that encourages you to REST AND provides the opportunity for you to do it!
Come rest with us!
