This podcast features the author of the incredible book, “Wake Up, Grateful”, and one of the most mindful and grateful leaders you will ever experience.  Kristi is also a cancer survivor and we discuss the shifts in her own life when the very fact of waking up another day reinvigorates her belief: “I get to be alive today!”  We discuss the difference between gratitude and grateful living and many more nuggets of wisdom (hint: your relationship with red and yellow traffic lights may be changed forever!)  Enjoy this heart-felt and intimate window into the eyes of Kristi Nelson and learn what it means to love with our hearts banging on their hinges... Wide Open!
