Vision on Family, Friends, and Relationships

How are your relationships? How are your interactions with your family members? What are your friendships like? For many of us the answer to these questions leads to areas of discontent and hope for improvement. This section is intended to improve your love for life, deepen your friendships and improve the relationships within your family. Passionate about growth and building outstanding relationships, Kristen’s mission is to help others take the first step into improved, meaningful relationships. It is her purpose to assist others to think critically and make active choices to build purposeful quality relationships. It’s easy to do what’s always been done. But if what’s always been done, isn’t effective or doesn’t achieve the desired response, it’s time to try something new, which may feel a bit uncomfortable. As Albus Dumbledore would say, “Happiness can be found even in the darkest of times, if one only remembers to turn on the light.” Her desire is to affirm experiences, to offer an alternate perspective with the hope of helping people step into an unknown space for the adventure of growth and learning. Because the quality of people’s lives is directly related to the quality of their relationships, Kristen is delighted to share her perspective and life experiences with the See Beyond readers.
