LICENSED WOMEN’S HEALTH PROVIDER | SPEAKER
ABOUT KRISTA
I was born and raised in Southern California within a family of inspiring and enduring women who knew their power and weren’t afraid to wield it. Because of this, I believe we all have an instinctual and empathic power; a connection to one another, and it is through this connection that we build lasting community and lifelong friendship. My father, a Vietnam War veteran and a great native healer, instilled in me the power of resilience and the profound strength that comes from ceremony and reverence.
As a licensed women's health provider with over two decades of experience, my professional journey has taken me into the depths of trauma, healing, somatic body movement, and the meditative practices of yoga nidra. Each step in this journey has profoundly touched my life and informed my approach to care.
Travel has been an essential part of my journey, a lifeline truly, enriching my understanding of the world but mostly of myself. To be held in a place and space that is unknown is deeply healing. To witness beauty, pain, and community from far-off places gives us new eyes and open hearts. Each destination has offered new insights and perspectives that have deepened my practice. These experiences remind me that transformative growth often occurs outside our comfort zones, in places unexpected and unfamiliar.
I have epic survival stories, including two battles with cancer, and I've come to understand that the scars we carry can be the very things that make us uniquely capable of helping others. This is the gift I offer to the world—a path to healing where we embrace our scars and offer connection, holding space together to illuminate the journey and reveal the beauty and strength you hold within.
