Playing Small Moment
Kristie is an artist at heart and didn’t know she could use those skills to be expressive and was often held back by her own fear. In college, she was afraid to speak up and voice her thoughts in class discussions for fear of being wrong and realized that her professor was enabling her fear and holding her back.
The Wake Up Call
This year has been a year of transformation for Kristie, which is pivotal for her role as an entrepreneurial leader. After being terminated unexpectedly from her spa career, she realized that she was worth so much more than what she was working for.
Style of Leadership
Kristie leads from within. She builds herself up with affirmations from her book so that she can be strong form the inside out. Kristie is also a firm believer in doing unto others as they would do unto you.

Kristie is pumped about her new online radio show, Massive Momentum. Her show talks about small steps with massive power and how effective you can be once you overcome your fears.
Leadership Practice
Journaling has been therapeutic for Kristie, ever since middle school. She journals everything internally and externally, it’s another voice for her, and finds peace in it.
