Hi, I’m Krista.

I’m a writer, athlete, and founder of the Human Aliveness Lab — where we explore what it really means to feel alive.

If you’ve ever felt stuck, numb, or quietly hungry for more… you’re in the right place.

This page is a home for essays and reflections on passion, purpose, and creative intensity — from the psychology of flow to the messy, beautiful process of trying to build a life that lights you up.

I write about what I’m learning, what I’m questioning, and what I still don’t fully understand. Sometimes it’s science. Sometimes it’s personal. Always, it’s driven by the search for aliveness.
