What alternative career paths have you considered or are interested in?

I’m a professor and have been so for over 20 years. I can’t imagine a time when I don’t teach at least one class.

I have shifted what I do part-time though. A couple of years ago I considered going back to school. I was accepted into 2 Masters programs. For various reasons, I decided to go a different route by seeking a certification in functional medicine health coaching. It was the best decision!

Coaching is a beautiful way to empower others to create bold, but attainable goals and practical action steps. It also allows me to support people with resources and accountability. Originally, I imagined coaching moms like me … and I do. But I just couldn’t shake the desire to help young people. Seeing the needs of college student go unfulfilled and skills undeveloped, was too much for me to ignore.

And here I am! Professor AND coach Krisler. 😊
