The idea for Dying Out Loud was born in a chemo chair. During biweekly treatments, Kris filled a journal with 74 letters, last messages to the people who mattered most.

Kris is a coach, speaker, and organizational development leader, and through this podcast, he’s creating a living legacy of gratitude, love, and connection.
