I’ve always been drawn to the magic of building something from nothing—rooted in purpose, fueled by passion, and built to last.

My entrepreneurial journey didn’t begin in a boardroom. It started in the backyard—selling catalpa worms to local fishermen, babysitting neighborhood kids, and crushing my Girl Scout cookie goals with a pitch full of heart. I learned early on that creativity, connection, and a little grit could turn even the simplest idea into something powerful.

That spark never left me.

It only grew.

From teenage jobs in retail and food service to climbing the corporate ladder in accounting, I soaked up every experience. I learned adaptability, leadership, resilience—and eventually found myself as a Revenue Manager and Payroll Supervisor. But something was missing. I wasn’t just meant to crunch numbers. I was meant to create.

In 1999, I left Corporate America to launch my own Accounting & Bookkeeping firm. That leap? It changed everything. I wasn’t just managing books—I was helping others bring their dreams to life. And through that work, I found my true calling: empowering purpose-driven people to build ventures that matter.

But let’s be real—this path hasn’t been a straight line.

I’ve started businesses. I’ve shut them down. I’ve navigated health challenges, career pivots, and personal reinventions. And through it all, one truth has held steady: success without purpose isn’t success at all.

Legacy requires alignment. It demands clarity, strategy, and soul.

Before I was a business coach, I was a naturalist. A certified outdoor educator. A passionate sustainability advocate.

My environmental roots run deep—from college activism to teaching at nature centers across four states. I was trained in Project WILD, Project WET, and Healthy Water, Healthy People. I even co-founded a local chapter of an international environmental nonprofit. My work centered on stewardship—not just of the earth, but of our energy, our resources, and our ideas.

As a former management consultant, I brought sustainability into the boardroom—introducing organizations to the Triple Bottom Line: people, planet, and profit. Today, that philosophy lives on in my coaching. I help changemakers build businesses that aren’t just profitable—but purposeful, regenerative, and built with future generations in mind.

(And yes—my personal email really is outdoorkristi.)

Over the years, I’ve:

✅Written more than 100 books

✅Created 150+ transformational courses

✅Guided thousands of visionaries across the globe to step into their power, their purpose, and their impact

My coaching is not one-size-fits-all. It’s custom-built for bold thinkers ready to do meaningful work.

If that’s you, I’m here to help you:

✅ Clarify your vision

✅ Build a sustainable, soul-aligned strategy

✅ Turn your big ideas into bold, meaningful action

This isn’t just about business.

It’s about legacy.

It’s about using what lights you up to light the way for others.

It’s about building something that feels like home—and leaves the world better than you found it.

When I’m not coaching world-changers like you, you’ll find me on the golf course, cheering for Notre Dame, or curled up with a chai latte and a good book.

Your dreams are valid.

Your voice matters.

And I believe—deeply—that you’re just getting started.

Let’s build something extraordinary—together.
