Kristen is a coach, author, speaker and radio show host with a Master's Degree in Counseling and over 19 years of experience in the field of personal development and self-discovery. 

Her soon to be published book, Waiting for Jack, challenges us to stop waiting and looking outside ourselves for the answer and start being "a fierce disruption the ordinary!" 

Waiting for Jack delivers a heart felt and inspiring message as well as a concrete action plan to get off the sidelines of your life and uncover your inner power.  Jack Canfield, co-author and creator of the Chicken Soup for the Soul series and The Success Principles wrote the foreword for the book. 

Kristen's weekly radio show "What Are You Waiting For?" is a dynamic conversation with expert guests from all over the country who have demonstrated a talent for being a fierce disruption of the ordinary in their own lives and the world.  Recent guests have included Dr. Joan Borysenko, Bob Doyle from the movie "The Secret" and the super model Emme. 

She founded a non-profit with the mission that all people have access to living extraordinary lives.  The organization provides "pay it forward" scholarships to transformational and life enhancing programs. 

Kristen brings a unique combination of compassion, rigor, inspiration, humor and accountability while offering people practical tools for self-expressed living.  Her challenge for us all is to stop waiting and looking outside ourselves for the answers and start being "a fierce disruption the ordinary" for ourselves and the world. 

When she is not actively making a difference in the world, she thrives in the beauty of Colorado and enjoys hiking, running, skiing, snowshoeing, riding her horse or just spending time reading or relaxing in her magical, solar powered house on the side of a mountain with two large dogs, an ornery cat and her best friend and husband of 13 years.
