Join Me on the Journey!
After years of sharing the Chrystal’s Chronicles podcast with over 2 million listeners, I’ve decided to rebrand and relaunch the podcast! Eight years in the making. One recording at a time. First solo then with friends. I’ve loved sharing my journey, asking questions, honoring my own curiosity and the curiosity of my audience.
One thing has remained constant I’ve never wanted the conversations to center around what I alone share with others. It’s always been about all of us, growing and learning from each other one interview at a time. So here we are, continuing the journey in a new and fun way.

Real. Authentic. Practical. Thoughts on faith, family, food, fitness, fun, and living with focus.
