Get What You Want
Jun 22, 2026If the pattern keeps repeating, it's time to turn up the heat.
Kris has spent her entire career helping other people get what they want. And she's watching women do the same thing. Pouring everything into helping clients, employees, family, friends figure out what they want, while their own desires sit dormant on a shelf.
Here's the truth she's naming: You know what you want. You've always known. The problem isn't figuring it out. The problem is you're scared. You have more to lose now than you did when you started, so you've tempered your dreams. You've muffled the joy and aspiration. You've told yourself it's too risky.
And the pattern keeps repeating.
In this episode, Kris walks through her own journey of learning to help people get what they really, truly want. Not the surface answer, but the real one. She shares the Zig Ziglar quote that's followed her for decades, why Martha Beck's ten-minute coaching principle changed everything, and what it actually takes to reclaim your own wants.
What you'll learn:
- Why you keep tempering what you want as you get older and more successful
- How to ask yourself the real question and cut through the fluff
- Why helping everyone else get what they want is actually keeping you stuck
- What happens when someone really sees you and asks what you want
- How patterns repeat until you decide to turn up the heat
- About the four-week coaching experience happening this summer
This is Kris reminding you that you have so much left to create, to be, to experience. And it starts with being honest about what you actually want.
