Kristen is an intuitive, sensitive healer at heart. She was guided to her degrees in Counseling/Psychology for a reason (empathy on overdrive). She’s currently working on her Trauma Recovery Certification. It’s a gift, a passion, a purpose. She is a survivor (think Beyonce song). She’ve got what she call “big trauma” in her past. She discovered that the darkest parts were the path to her purpose, and tapping into her creative power freed her spirit.

Kristen craves adventure and love being in nature; her ideal vacation is open space and activity. She’s down to hike a glacier or kayak with whales. She’s an out of the closet introvert. Not even trying to be extroverted anymore. She loves feeling inspired. She have been married for 19 years and have two kids, a girl 15, boy 12.

Kristen shared about:

• How she recovered from so many struggles and being molested when she was a child.
• How she used her horrible past to become who she is now.
• How she empower other people with their experiences.
