All About
Kristen Brown
Hello...
I'm Kristen!
I know firsthand what it’s like to hit rock bottom (a lot of times!) and how to rebound by shifting energy on-the-fly to get back on track when it feels like work and life keep throwing out one big roadblock after another…
And I know how to help others get back on the right track, uplevel their resilience and mental health, and feel excited about what’s next too!
I use my experiences to inspire and engage and never depress or demoralize. As a widowed mom, former corporate stress monster, solo parent juggling multiple duties as a business owner, navigating financial rollercoasters, and managing my daughter’s major health scare, I know what it takes to be resilient when life deals you a crappy hand.
That’s why I share Energy Hacks on stage, online, and in the media to uplevel your resilience and results. This is how I have survived some of life’s worst challenges and how I help you re-engage with your goals, create positive growth, and spark forward momentum when you’re taken down too.
Plus I have a long and deep history of speaking and research both back in my corporate days and today as a Certified Speaking Professional. There are only a few hundred speakers with this CSP designation showing the commitment to delivering your group an engaging, entertaining, and relevant experience.
