To Brett and Drew

inspiration and love.
I am truly blessed.

Through this book as well as her keynote speeches and workshops, she shares her knowledge and experience, as well as her savvy life lessons, with girls across the globe. One of Kristis life goals is to help girls, boys, young professionals, and executives be strong and powerful in their lives.

Beginning when she was young, through her junior-high and high-school years, her undergraduate and graduate-school days, and her career and volunteer experiences, Kristi has passionately observed and journaled life lessons.

Kristis passion for knowledge transfer to future generations became unstoppable.

Kristis compelling writing reveals deep power, strength, and knowledge. She has learned that positive action speaks volumes. That some words are better left unspoken. That mistakes happenlearn from them. That its great to be an individual. That true friends come in all shapes and sizes.

Throughout her twenty-five years of professional and volunteer experience and her hundreds of interviews with corporate executives, CEOs, entrepreneurs, professional and collegiate athletes, and young girls and boys, Kristi has gleaned notable and life-altering lessons. Her affiliations with such organizations as Boston University, PBS, CBS, Girl Scouts of the USA, Young Presidents Organization (YPO), World Presidents Organization (WPO), University of Toledo, Junior League, and Delta Delta Delta sorority have made her who she is today.
