Hi, I’m Krystle! I’m so glad that Life led you to my little corner of the internet. Whether our paths have crossed for a blink or you choose to stick around a while, I hope that you find a little bit of love while you’re here with me.

 

When I speak of my life’s journey, I often playfully tell my kids that I was an “OG influencer” before we had Instagram and TikTok. While that part is true, it was never what I set out to be when I created my 2011 blog, Skinny Jeans Dreams. I was just a young mom on a journey with a story that felt worth talking about. In doing so, I discovered my purpose as a writer, storyteller, communicator, and conversation facilitator.

 

Following my public 100+ pound weight loss in the early 2010s, I released an equally vulnerable book, Nourish: A Journey to Loving and Embracing the Woman Within. The aftermath of the blog and the book would lead me on a quest of self-discovery, which, to keep a long story short, took me into my personal wilderness and landed me back in the ultimate presence of my “self.” 

 

That is where my 2026 book, ME SHAPED LOVE, comes in – a “Write Your Own Self-Love Story” workbook and journal. This book was created from the deepest parts of my journey and meant to be experienced as you work to build a relationship with the person you refer to as YOU. It is the most important relationship you will ever keep, and it’s one worth nurturing. 

 

On my path, I have found that sometimes all I needed was permission to feel a new way; a perspective to think about something in a new way; or a little bit of purpose to keep finding my way. 

 

I hope this book is all three of those things for you in a way that serves you on your unique path.
