In this episode of the Changeology podcast, I sit down with Krista Ryan, a highly sought-after business coach, facilitator, speaker, and workplace performance expert. Krista is known for helping clients navigate uncertainty with confidence, collaboration, and communication. Her clients have included C-suite executives, entrepreneurs, performers, and elite athletes from around the world. You can connect with Krista at kristaryan.com or on LinkedIn.
Krista’s story is a powerful testament to resilience and transformation. She has faced two life-altering experiences—the Route 91 Harvest Music Festival mass shooting and a colorectal cancer diagnosis—that tested her in unimaginable ways. Instead of letting these tragedies define her, Krista created the KFG (Keep Freaking Going) framework, which has since become a guiding force for individuals and organizations navigating change.
Why should you listen to this episode? Because Krista’s journey is not just about surviving hardship—it’s about thriving in the face of it. She shares her raw, emotional, and ultimately inspiring story with honesty and humor, proving that no matter what life throws at us, we have the power to keep moving forward.
