Kris Freed’s journey is nothing short of extraordinary. From a privileged upbringing to battling addiction, surviving incarceration, and experiencing homelessness, Kris’s story could have ended many times—but it didn’t. Instead, she climbed out of the darkest moments of her life and became a leader dedicated to changing the way we approach homelessness. In this episode, Kris shares her powerful story of resilience, the lessons she learned along the way, and how she’s using her lived experience to lead change and help others find their way home.

If you’ve ever wondered what it really takes to turn pain into purpose, this conversation will inspire you.
