Kristi Hayes is the owner and founder of KHOP FIT, a business that teaches others how to journey to health and wholeness through the avenue of nutrition and fitness. KHOP FIT started in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma and is now based in St. Louis, Missouri. Kristi is a certified personal trainer and Level 1 Crossfit Trainer. On any given day, you will find her walking on her hands with her kids, challenging others to do what they think wasn’t possible in her garage gym, or re-decorating multiple rooms in her house. KHOP FIT organically formed when her workout team named their workouts in Kristi's garage/backyard, K’s House of Pain. Kristi likes to say that the P is for Purpose, Potential, Pull-ups and that there’s always purpose with the Pain - which is a good lesson in life as well.
Prior to becoming a fitness and mindset coach, Kristi played college basketball, worked with several churches and non-profits, worked in DC as a lobbyist on Capitol Hill and was the founder and CEO of Wiseabe, a for profit company that helped send students to college in impoverished countries.
Kristi uses fitness as the connecting point to bring WHOLENESS in all areas of her teams' lives. By empowering men and women to be disciplined in fitness, nutrition, and care of their soul, Kristi utilizes her past role as a former basektball coach. Her current focus is to create multiple micro teams that may contain people who all have different individual goals, but each person is invested in helping the others accomplish their next goals. Kristi coaches her teams to "CELEBRATE WHOLENESS TOGETHER."
This episode is a great fit for folks who are coaching themselves, their team, their staff, their corporate culture through a mindset change. Kristi applies the tools we all need for a mindset change and applies it to helping clients with body image. What mindset change do you need? You will be able to convert Kristi's approach to your situation right away.

How do you prioritize all the things? Jenna Worthen went in deep to research and create a new beautiful efficiency system.
Jenna's main gig is political and nonprofit fundraising and consulting. She searched high and low for a simple, striking, efficiency tool that would work for her clients and most importantly for her. A confessed, recovering work-a-holic Jenna has a lot of irons in the fire and needed a way to manage inflow, priorities and outflow. Voila, her new company and creation: The Taskkeeper.
In this episode Jenna takes us on the ride from deciding to launch a new company, hitting potholes and finally crossing to the other side with The Taskkeeper steno line and a manifesto for "beautiful efficiency."
This episode is exactly what you need if you can see a solution that should exist, but doesn't. You are on the fence, trying to decide if you create it, or just deal without.
At the end of the episode Jenna drops some deep thoughts on how she doesn't let others dictate her schedule. How she flipped a popular phrase to shape a new identity for her life.

Maybe you need to step back and focus on just a few hallmark projects and some self care to reboot for the next round. Author, conference CEO and connector Logan Wolfram learned that lesson the hard way.
Listen in to learn how you can follow Logan's lead and make 2016 way more zen than 2015. Mixed in with some big laughs, Logan tells us about what happened when she took her own advice about slowing down and rebooting curious adventure - for one thing, she ended up in a quilting class. By tackling fewer projects, she opened a new creative path for her first online summit: The Curious Living Summit, which had a smashing launch this summer.
