People First, Not Things First - Kristin Meekoff, Author, Media Consultant, MSW

Sell By Being Human

Summary:

Kristin A. Meekhof is an author, life coach, writer and obtained her M.S.W. from the University of Michigan. She has more than 20 years of clinical experience. A nationally recognized expert on resiliency and gratitude, her best-selling book, A Widow’s Guide to Healing, was inspired by her own personal experience with widowhood, grief, and healing. When Kristin is not writing she enjoys traveling, training for half-marathons, and writing. She is a life- coach and therapist providing services online and in person.

I first met Kristin in a community we're apart of where she lept off the screen with how she was able to connect to really well known people. She approached Jesse Itzler by offering to give something to him without asking for anything in return. I later found out her story goes from being a social worker, to tragically losing her husband to cancer, and picking up the peices to write a book about it.

What's interesting is that Kristin had to sell herself in a time where she was at her lowest point. Her abilities got her in rooms with people like Deepak Chopra, Katie Couric, and Maria Shriver! Hear how Kristin did it and what you can learn for yourself.
