Episode OverviewIn this powerful episode, Kristen explores a deeper layer of hustle culture—one most people never identify: hustle as a survival response. Drawing from personal experiences, trauma-informed coaching, and neuroscience, she unpacks how our nervous systems are often running the show without us even realizing it.You’ll learn why high-performers hit burnout despite consuming all the right strategies, and how unaddressed stress patterns are sabotaging our leadership, productivity, and peace. Kristen also introduces the four main survival responses (fight, flight, freeze, and fawn) and how they show up in real life, business, parenting, and more.Whether you feel stuck in cycles of burnout, perfectionism, or chronic overworking—this episode will help you understand the real driver behind those patterns and how to finally change them.What You'll Learn in This EpisodeWhy hustle is often a survival strategy, not a strategy for successThe neuroscience behind why we freeze, overwork, or people-please under stressHow early childhood experiences shaped your default stress responseThe difference between reaction and response—and why it mattersWhy information alone isn’t enough: the gap between knowledge and actionHow to begin regulating your nervous system in real-timeTimestamps00:00 – Intro: Life as a sideline sports mom02:00 – Recapping the three-part healing series03:30 – The survival response hidden inside hustle culture04:35 – Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs and how it shows up in business05:28 – The real reason we stay stuck in reactivity loops06:35 – Looking for security in external outcomes (and why it backfires)07:30 – Childhood experiences that shaped our nervous systems08:20 – Example: scarcity, chaos, and “fighting for the meat”10:00 – Why children default to shame without external narration11:00 – How childhood survival strategies bleed into adulthood12:00 – What your frontal lobe does—and why it goes offline under stress13:00 – The “infobesity epidemic” and why personal development isn’t working14:50 – The two speeds we operate in: 0 or 100 mph15:45 – Nervous system regulation is the real key to high performance16:30 – What triggers actually feel like in the body (even online)17:48 – Our brain’s obsession with certainty and black-and-white thinking19:00 – One grounding question to ask when you’re spiraling20:25 – Kristen’s own journey with chronic dysregulation and burnout21:27 – The four major nervous system stress responses explained22:30 – Fight: control as a form of safety23:34 – Freeze: perfectionism, overthinking, and inability to start24:30 – Fawn: people-pleasing as emotional self-preservation25:45 – How to create safety for others with different responses26:20 – Social media and collective dysregulation27:15 – Rear lobe vs. frontal lobe thinking28:00 – From reaction to conscious response: the real work29:10 – One simple regulation tool to start using today30:00 – Regulating ≠ never being triggered—it’s about knowing what to do31:00 – Why this conversation is the future of personal development32:03 – Take the new stress type quiz + download the full 26-page reportKey TakeawaysMost people are unknowingly operating from survival mode every dayYour nervous system is either helping or hijacking your decision-makingHigh performers are often stuck in hustle loops not from laziness, but from dysregulationTrue transformation doesn’t happen from learning more—it happens when we can apply what we know, and...

Episode OverviewIn the final installment of her vulnerable three-part series, Kristen continues to unpack the emotional, spiritual, and professional journey she’s been on over the past year. Picking up where she left off—at rock bottom—Kristen shares what happened after taking radical responsibility for her actions and stepping away from the business that made her a household name in social selling.She explores the deep healing work she’s done through therapy, a transformational retreat, and a season of radical stillness...before realizing that healing often intensifies when we start building again. Kristen discusses the creation of Sondera, her new company focused on nervous system regulation, and how the entrepreneurial process is offering her the most humbling and redemptive growth of all.This is not a polished comeback. This is the messy middle—where ego dies, faith grows, and identity is rebuilt.What You'll Learn in This EpisodeWhy healing often accelerates in the process of building something newHow nervous system dysregulation can sabotage successThe dangers of attaching self-worth to productivity and platformWhy Kristen walked away from a wildly successful businessThe origin story of Sondera and what it’s really aboutWhy your internal safety matters more than external securityKey TakeawaysHealing is not linear. Kristen thought peace would come from stillness. But it came through risk, exposure, and being seen in a new way.Burnout is more than overwork. Chronic nervous system dysregulation—not just hours worked—was what broke Kristen down.Success doesn’t mean alignment. Kristen shares how she knew she was out of alignment even though her business was thriving on the surface.Redemption is found in transparency. Instead of disappearing and re-emerging perfectly polished, Kristen invites her audience into the real-time journey.Your body tells the truth. Learning how her stress response (flight) controlled her behavior helped her take back agency and make healthier decisions.Timestamps 00:00 – Intro: “I see you with brand new eyes.” 01:20 – Recapping Part 2: Hitting bottom and coming home 03:00 – The power of bringing your story into the light 05:00 – Deep therapy and emotional healing at Onsite 06:15 – Feeling disillusioned with her former business model 07:10 – Launching “Beyond the Business” coaching calls 08:00 – The agonizing decision to shut down her signature programs 09:45 – Stewarding success well in seasons of plenty 11:00 – Letting go of external validation and facing public perception 12:30 – The fantasy of a “quiet, offline life” vs. the call to rebuild 15:00 – Discovering nervous system regulation as the missing link 17:00 – Fight, flight, freeze, and fawn: how they show up in your business 20:00 – Why she mistook her chronic stress for ambition 23:30 – Understanding burnout through the lens of dysregulation 25:10 – Building Sondera: from idea to messy execution 26:30 – Why healing happened through building, not before it 29:00 – Learning to express vulnerability to her husband 31:00 – Letting go of ego, hustle, and performance-driven identity 33:00 – Creating Sondera as a redemptive act 34:30 – Reconnecting with her story and reclaiming her voice 36:00 – An invitation to listeners: look for the growth in your own build 39:00 – Next up: nervous system regulation and what it means in daily lifeResources & MentionsKristen’s New Company: a...

Episode Overview:In this raw and unfiltered episode, Kristen shares one of the most vulnerable moments of her life—the unraveling of her personal identity, the toxicity of success addiction, and the deeply human consequences of building self-worth entirely around a business. This is the second part of her behind-the-scenes story, and it’s not easy listening. Trigger warning: This episode discusses topics such as suicidal ideation, addiction, emotional breakdown, and marital strain.Through heartbreak, pain, and brutal self-awareness, Kristen details how she reached her breaking point and the darkness that ultimately led to her healing journey. She explores what it means to lose yourself in the pursuit of achievement, the false safety of validation through external success, and the courage it takes to ask for help and be seen in your most broken state.This is not just an episode—it’s a lifeline for anyone who has ever felt like they were falling apart behind the scenes.Timestamps:00:03 – Welcome + Important trigger warning01:27 – The weight of sharing hard stories02:19 – Ignoring the warning signs and pushing through pain04:35 – The season of invincibility and missing the check engine light05:28 – How validation addiction builds unnoticed07:34 – Business as a dopamine supplier and feedback loop09:31 – “Am I loved?

In this raw and revealing episode, Kristen begins a powerful three-part series chronicling the rise, fall, and healing that reshaped everything she thought she knew about success. This first installment focuses on the grind—how she built a thriving, multi-seven-figure business from scratch—and the glory—what it felt like to be on top of the mountain.But beneath the surface of her seemingly unstoppable growth, Kristen candidly shares how deep-rooted scarcity, people-pleasing, and identity wounds quietly shaped her relationship with business.

Kristen knows the weight of closing a chapter. It’s not just an end, but a moment to honor everything that chapter held: the growth, the connections, and the work that shaped not only her journey but the lives of those who shared it.This is a bittersweet space to stand in, filled with gratitude for what was and the ache of saying goodbye. Kristen believes in giving each chapter a good funeral, not as a sign of loss but as a celebration of the story it tells. Too often, people shy away from endings, afraid of the uncertainty they bring. They talk themselves out of dreaming bigger or reaching for more, fearing the disappointment of things not going as planned. But Kristen sees it differently.This chapter isn’t closing because it failed or faltered. It’s closing to make space for the next one to unfold—a bittersweet goodbye, filled with deep reflection and forward hope.Kristen reminds us that goodbyes are part of the process, and each one shapes what comes next. This is not the end of the story, just a shift, a moment to pause, celebrate, and step into what’s waiting on the other side.To every listener who tuned in, shared an episode, or found a piece of themselves in these stories—thank you. Your presence has made this chapter unforgettable.

Kristen continues the conversation from last week, pulling back the curtain on her own pivot and exploring why making a change, even when it feels necessary, can be so terrifying. She unpacks why growth often feels like loss, why we cling to the familiar, and how the fear of letting go keeps us stuck in places we’ve outgrown.Let’s look at a few highlights:Growth and grief often go hand in hand—letting go of what’s familiar can feel like a loss, even when we know it’s time for something new.We often hold on to what we’ve already invested in, whether it’s a belief, a job, or a relationship, because the fear of abandoning that energy feels overwhelming.The fear of inconsistency or betraying others can make us shrink ourselves to protect the peace, causing us to stay in situations that no longer align with our growth.Kristen highlights that the discomfort we feel around growth is often a signal of progress. The fear of pivoting is normal, but it’s also a sign that we’re standing at the edge of something bigger. The real risk isn’t in the change itself, but in staying where we are, avoiding discomfort, and missing out on what’s possible. Pivoting takes courage—and that’s exactly what we need to move forward.Follow Kristen on Instagram @thekristenboss If you are ready to learn lead generation and cold market strategies to grow your network marketing business, get on The Social Selling Academy waitlist here: https://www.kristenboss.com/ssa-pod

It’s been a while since Kristen has given an update, and a lot has changed. She’s usually the one sharing stories of client successes and business wins, but today, she’s turning the focus inward. The past year has been a rollercoaster of highs and lows, forcing her to confront burnout, grapple with a loss of identity, and ultimately make a massive pivot.Kristen began noticing changes in her business long before she was ready to acknowledge them. She was seeing incredible transformations with her clients—families healing, individuals gaining clarity. It was the kind of impact she had dreamed of making. Yet, she found herself questioning, “Is this enough? What is this doing for my business?”What started as a quiet discomfort grew into full-blown burnout—a complete breakdown she never saw coming. For a while, Kristen did what most of us do—she kept going, pretending everything was fine. She didn’t want anyone to see that she was struggling. This pivot isn’t just about business; it’s personal. Kristen realized that the burnout, the breakdown, was her body’s way of telling her she was living out of alignment. She started focusing on her mental health, her family, and her own wellbeing. She’s learning to redefine success. If you’re feeling that pull, that sense that something needs to change, you’re not alone. Kristen’s journey is proof that it’s okay to pivot, to step back, and to realign with what truly matters. Stay tuned for part two. Follow Kristen on Instagram @thekristenboss If you are ready to learn lead generation and cold market strategies to grow your network marketing business, get on The Social Selling Academy waitlist here: https://www.kristenboss.com/ssa-pod

In the social selling industry, consistency is often the deciding factor between success and struggle. Yet, many sellers find themselves caught in a cycle of reactive habits, only springing into action during a crisis.In a recent coaching session with some of her top six and seven-figure earners, Kristen unpacked these challenges and provided actionable insights to help sellers overcome the obstacles to consistency and build a thriving business.Let’s look at a few highlights:Kristen highlighted why many sellers struggle to stay consistent, noting the tendency to only take action during a crisis, which creates a cycle of unhealthy momentum.She discussed how both activity and inactivity in this business accumulate over time, with delayed results that make it easy to fall into complacency.The conversation also covered the importance of creating and maintaining momentum, especially during sprints, and how sometimes your team needs that extra push to keep moving forward.Consistency in social selling isn't just about reacting when problems show up—it's about creating and maintaining habits that drive ongoing success. Kristen’s coaching session showed that real success comes from being proactive, simplifying your approach, and keeping your team engaged. Ask yourself what success looks like for you right now and align your actions with that vision.Discover transformative strategies for network marketers in our exclusive 90-day membership and online course.

It’s easy to think that if your sales are down, it must be because people aren’t spending money. But if you look around, the evidence tells a different story. From long lines at Starbucks to packed Disney parks, it’s clear that people are still opening their wallets. The key isn’t that they’re spending less, it’s that they’re spending differently. Consumers are focusing more on emotional fulfillment than ever before. In this episode, Kristen talks to listeners about the current state of consumer spending and behavior. She explores how people are spending money not out of necessity, but for emotional satisfaction. Kristen will guide you through understanding why consumers are prioritizing emotional fulfillment in their purchases and how you can use these insights to tailor your marketing strategies. Let’s look at a few highlights:People are looking for products and experiences that provide a dopamine boost. Their purchasing habits are driven by a quick emotional high. Kristen challenges you to analyze your own spending habits over the past month. What did you buy that made you feel good? This self-reflection can provide insights into broader consumer behavior.People aren’t just buying things out of necessity anymore. They’re splurging on stuff that makes them feel good.   Many people would rather find ways to earn more money than cut back on their spending. To grab your potential customer’s attention, make sure your product or service hits them on an emotional level. Show how it can bring them joy or solve a problem.So, despite what you might hear, people are still spending money, but they’re doing it in a way that focuses on how it makes them feel. By understanding these emotional drivers and aligning your marketing strategies accordingly, you can better connect with your audience and see your sales reflect the true state of consumer spending.Discover transformative strategies for network marketers in our exclusive 90-day membership and online course.

The concept of trading time for money is familiar, but it's also limiting. There's only so much time in a day, and if your income is directly tied to your personal efforts, your earning potential is capped. To break through this barrier, you need to think beyond your own hours and start leveraging other resources. In today’s episode, Kristen provides practical guidance and the real truth on how to break through the third paycheck plateau. She focuses on increasing your impact in ways that aren’t directly tied to your personal time. One of the most effective strategies for doing this is building a team. Let’s look at a few highlights: Kristen discusses how scaling your efforts means increasing your impact in a leveraged and scalable way. This isn't just about working harder; it's about working smarter. It's about more than just adding members. It's about expanding your impact by bringing in people who want to build their own businesses. The truth is, you don't need to be an expert to help someone get their first customer. Leading by example is often enough. Without investing effort into building a team, you’re not fully leveraging your business. By building a team, you’re creating a sustainable and scalable business model. You need to get people into your team. You need to leverage this business through building a team. This is the key to breaking through the paycheck plateau and scaling your business to the next level.  Discover transformative strategies for network marketers in our exclusive 90-day membership and online course.

There is a lot happening and shifting within the network marketing space right now. Big changes are leaving people questioning the future of network marketing and their own roles within it. Kristen is here to provide support and clarity about what’s going on in the industry, bringing you this special bonus episode.   In this State of the Union replay, Kristen discusses the changes we’re seeing and offers encouragement and insight. Kristen continues to instill what is possible in this business model, reminding us all that there is still hope for the industry. It's normal to feel vulnerable, to have questions, and to feel a bit unsure of what’s coming next. Let’s look at a few highlights: This is hard, and we all feel it. Whenever we see a company change their model to an affiliate model, we ask, "What does this mean for my company?" It's important to remember that network marketing is not going anywhere. Even as companies pivot, your most valuable assets remain intact: your email lists, your personal brand, and the skills you’ve acquired.  Tough seasons are part of any business journey. If you’re losing faith in the network marketing business, now is the time to rebuild your belief. Focus on what’s possible and where the industry is heading. Be the person who talks about the future and inspires others with a vision of where we’re going. It’s not about ignoring the challenges but about charging through the storm with determination and resilience. Network marketing offers countless opportunities, even in times of change. By focusing on your strengths and staying positive, you can navigate these shifts and come out stronger. Stay hopeful, stay confident, and remember, you have the tools needed to succeed.

Are you feeling stuck in your network marketing business, watching your income become stagnant despite your hard work? Welcome to the paycheck plateau, a phase every network marketer will face at some point. If you haven't encountered it yet, it's only a matter of time. In today’s episode, Kristen talks about how to recognize the warning signs, addresses the first paycheck plateau, and shares strategies for getting back on track. Let’s look at a few highlights: The paycheck plateau occurs when your income from network marketing stagnates after an initial period of growth. This is a natural part of the business cycle.

Expand your network by connecting with people outside your immediate circle. Adapt your marketing strategies to the changing market dynamics. What worked initially may not work now. When you’ve exhausted your hot leads and find yourself struggling to maintain momentum, it’s time to shift your approach.

Have you ever felt like your business is on cruise control, where the excitement and motivation that once drove you have faded? This stage is what’s known as the "danger zone," and it’s a place many of us might find ourselves in without even realizing it.    The concept hit home for Kristen during a conversation with her fitness coach about her current state in her fitness journey. What became strikingly clear is that this danger zone is not just limited to fitness—it happens in business too. Let’s look at a few highlights: The danger zone is a point in your journey where you're no longer driven by pain but haven't yet established a new goal to chase. It’s human nature to avoid pain more than to chase desires Your business begins as a solution to this pain, but what happens when the pain is alleviated? Without a new goal, you risk entering the danger zone. Without the drive to move forward, complacency sets in. You might think there’s an endpoint where you’ve completed your journey, but the truth is, the work never truly ends. Understand that growth often comes with discomfort. Be willing to put yourself in situations that challenge you and push you out of your comfort zone. Every entrepreneur reaches a point where the journey feels mundane and less exciting. It's normal, but it’s also a signal that you need to push yourself further. The danger zone is a reality for many business owners. It’s where you might feel tempted to relax and coast, but it’s also where you risk stagnation. Kristen encourages you to move out of the danger zone, find the motivation that will drive you to the next level, and achieve your goals. Don’t let complacency take hold.

Are you the person who's constantly looking back at what your business once was? Wishing for the days when making a sale felt effortless, when your warm market connections seemed to be enough? The truth is, things have changed.    In today’s episode Kristen delivers the hard truth about tapping into your cold market and asking the crucial question… are you still bought into this business, even knowing it's different, hard, and outside of your comfort zone? Let’s look at a few highlights: Wishing for the old business creates resistance to your now. If you compare the present day team and business to the past, we are in a different landscape. One of the significant shifts in network marketing is the transition from warm market messaging to cold market engagement. The people you once relied on—friends, family, acquaintances—might not be enough to sustain your business anymore. If your customer base isn't yielding the same revenue, it's a sign that you need new eyes on your products. It's not enough to show up only when you're desperate or feeling scarcity. True success comes from being consistent, no matter the circumstances. Buying back in means embracing the changes, adapting your strategies, and continually selling yourself on the value and potential of your business.   Let's be real: this isn't your old business anymore. The landscape has changed, and clinging to the past won't drive your success in the present. It's time to decide—are you in this business or not? Are you ready to stop making excuses, adapt to the new reality, and put in the work? The future of your business depends on your ability to evolve. It's time to stop dwelling on what used to be and start building what can be. Get out of your comfort zone, engage with the cold market, and commit to your business.
