In this inspiring and personal episode, Joan is in conversation with Kristine Ochu, author, speaker, resilience coach, and “Modern-Day LumberJill”. While fully immersed in competitive log rolling in her youth, she discovered the power of positive psychology which would be a springboard to what she is doing today.

Kristine shares her incredible story from growing up in a community where the World Lumberjack Championships were held, to a successful career in corporate HR, moving through divorce, many years as a single mother, and living with an unexpected health challenge. All of these experiences ultimately led to her designing workshops, writing books, and sharing tools to help women reclaim their power. Her journey is a testament to the power of taking just “one more step”.

Whether you’re navigating a new season of life, dealing with loss or health setbacks, or rediscovering your creative spark, this episode offers uplifting wisdom, emotional honesty, and actionable tools to support your next act.
