Introducing Unleash YOUnique: A Journey to Authenticity

Written by Kristen Kruze | Jan 3, 2024 3:00:00 PM

Hey there, welcome to the Unleash YOUnique blog! My name is Kristen Kruze and I am thrilled you have joined me on this wild journey of self-exploration and personal development. Buckle up because we're about to embark on a ride into the depths of authenticity, personal growth, and everything that makes life beautifully messy. I am here to spill the beans on everything - from insightful reflections on self-discovery and embracing your unique path, to sharing juicy stories from my own experiences. For my very first blog post, I want to give you a glimpse of who I am, my very unique journey, and the reasons behind starting this blog. Let's dive in !

 
I am who I am, and I'm proud of it!

I have worn many hats in my life, from diving into the depths of psychology to flying high in the circus.  I understand the struggle of feeling like you're out of sync with the world, longing for a path that's uniquely yours. I'm a dreamer, always seeking new adventures, even when it means veering off the expected course. Each choice I made, from my academic journey to my unconventional career as a professional trapeze artist, was met with skepticism. Still, I stood my ground, determined to live life on my terms. It wasn't easy. It took many years to build the resilience to others' opinions.

I am proud to say that I now stand as a symbol of unapologetic authenticity. It took great courage and strength and the journey will always be ongoing but I have managed to completely rewire my mind. I have at last embraced everything that I amβ€” my quirks, my passions, and my scars. It was extremely difficult to face my true self. To stop putting bandaids on things and running away from my problems. To actually face everything head on and embrace those uncomfortable thoughts, have uncomfortable conversations, and take uncomfortable action.

After navigating a winding road of self-discovery, I can proudly say that I've found my place in the world. I've discovered a purpose that aligns perfectly with my authentic self. And now, I'm here to guide you on your own journey of self-discovery, helping you find your place and purpose too!

Why Unleash YOUnique?

I created Unleash YOUnique after a personal identity crisis. I had no idea what I wanted to do with my life once I came to the decision that I wanted to change my life course from performing. I had severe feelings of unclarity. I had chosen this career path to perform against all odds and I succeeded. But accepting that after all this time it was best for me to move on was a hard pill to swallow. Once I sat down and made myself think about what my life would look like if there were no problems, no obstacles, and I woke up one day with the perfect life. What would that look like? Well what I came up with was: I would be going on all the fun, exciting adventures and I would be helping as many people as I could find their own path along the way. I knew it was part of my journey to help others with their journey. So once that became clear to me, I thought about what I could build to make this happen.

It honestly did not take much time to build once my vision became clear. I thought about the audience I would cater to and what they would need. Realistically the question really was, what would I have needed in the past to help my growth and pave my path? 

I created Unleash YOUnique with that in mind. It is not only a coaching business. It is a place where I want to be fully open about my journey with the world. A safe space for people to freely explore and embrace their true selves. A community to be part of with like-minded people who offer acceptance and support.

I want to offer the kind of unwavering support I wish I'd had, for those eager to uncover their true selves without the burden of external judgment. People have always gravitated towards me to share very personal stories and I can't tell you how many times Ive heard people tell me that they have never shared certain things with anyone else. I firmly believe that my ability connect with people people stems from vulnerability. I openly share my own journey, stories, and challenges and I always show up as my authentic self. I believe it is my openness with others and my ability to be vulnerable with people that causes a ripple effect. Where it allows others to feel safe in sharing their own stories with me.

I have been scared in the past to publicly share my story but when I have witnessed on countless occasions how powerful my vulnerability is when helping others, I am only left with the question... If I have the ability to touch lives on a day to day without really even trying, what could I achieve if I actually did try?

What to expect?

Expect real talk, genuine stories, and a hefty dose of inspiration. Each week, we'll dive into topics that resonate with the core of your being β€” from the importance of self-discovery to strategies for overcoming those pesky self-limiting beliefs. I'll spill the tea on my experiences, share lessons learned, and offer practical tips to turn your journey of self-discovery into a thrilling adventure.

Hold tight, because we're not just scratching the surface; we're diving in deep. Through this blog, I aim to create a community of like-minded individuals who are ready to embrace their true selves and create a life that feels genuine and fulfilling. I encourage you to actively participate by sharing your thoughts, experiences, and questions in the comments section. Together, we'll uplift and inspire each other as we navigate this beautiful journey of self-discovery.

Thank you for joining me on this adventure, and I can't wait to connect with all of you.  

Ready to embrace your YOUnique self? Let's dive in together! πŸ’«πŸŒˆβœ¨
