We are so honored and excited to have Kristen in the studio with us. We had a great time talking with this intelligent and well-educated woman about life, people and feelings. Here is a summary in her own words:
My various careers have made zero sense on paper. I went to undergrad for creative writing, and then did a 180 degree turn and decided that I'd go back to school and become...a barber?! And yet, it all makes perfect sense. Well, at least to me. I love stories. I love people. I love making people feel good about themselves inside and out. I am a sex therapist now and I fully believe if I hadn't been with my clients through their many tales of sex, dating, partying, graduating, learning, growing, and becoming, I might never have been the sex therapist I am today. Some of my former barber clients still reach out to me to tell me about their lives, which I am so happy and humbled by. Cutting hair has been a lifeline and an amazing teacher.
