Support, teach, empower.
According to the Harvard Business Review, nearly three-quarters of U.S. employees are also caring for a spouse, elderly parent/relative, or child with special needs.
Â
Caregivers are growing in number, struggling to balance their many roles and responsibilities, and need support and understanding to fully contribute their many gifts at work and at home.Â

I’m committed to helping communities and companies provide this help to maximize the personal well-being and professional success of parents and caregivers.Â
- Beyond my work as a published author and leadership coach, I’ve lived and juggled and studied and “resilienced” my way through life’s challenges, including raising an adult son with profound disabilities and caring for aging parents. Â

I’m passionate about sharing what I’ve learned through my research and life experiences to help individuals and organizations understand, build and sustain resilience  – regardless of the challenges they face. It’s both possible and empowering. And it's really important.

Recognized for my ability to connect and deliver action-oriented content that's engaging and accessible, I can collaborate in many different ways:
Â
From interactive presentations to half- and full-day workshops, I would love to tailor an event to meet your needs.
Â
Whether speaking to a large auditorium, small conference room, or anything in-between, I feel strongly about making learning personal, practical, and powerful. I use vulnerable storytelling, candid conversations, and trained facilitation techniques to make optimal use of participants’ time, and I always tailor my message to the needs and interests of your audience.
Â
I’m told that my warm and engaging style inspires people to expand their perspective, try new things, and commit to continuous improvement. This matters to our lives at home, work, and within our communities. And it all starts with feeling seen, heard, and understood. That’s my sweet spot – and I love sharing it with others to help them navigate the complexities of their roles.

"Kris was an absolute gift to my team.  Our staff development day focused on resilience training and team building, and Kris facilitated a very meaningful and valuable discussion that left everyone inspired, excited and full of new ideas to help our clients and ourselves. I couldn't recommend Kris more highly."
