Heart to Heart with Faith-Forward Leader, Krysten Lamb

Our mission behind the Coaching Coast to Coast podcast has always been to connect with like-hearted leaders, people who lead from a place of compassion, love and a belief in greater possibilities for humanity. In these special Heart to Heart episodes, we take a brief detour to interview health and wellness practitioners who’ve come together to build the FreshLeap Life community – a community that helps empower people to live more balanced, nourishing and joyful lives.  In this episode, Chris speaks with Krysten Lamb, a minister and a guide for the FreshLeap Life community.
