I had been stuck for years. In my relationships, in my job, with how I thought about myself. As a highly successful academician, I’m sure very few on the outside could see this, but for me it was present every day. Around a milestone birthday I decided something had to change – I didn’t know how many years I had left but I really didn’t want to spend any more of them feeling what I was dwelling in. Thoughts like: I had a job I had to keep because that’s what was expected. That I had to give up who I was or who I’d been. That my relationships could never get better – they’d maxed out on “good times.” In my earlier days I had dabbled in dance, acting, playing the piano, writing and being fun and carefree. Where had that person gone??
Inspired by my daughter, I signed up for an adult acting class at our local community theater. Once that class ended, I enrolled in an Improv Class – and am proud to say that I have graduated after completing all 5 levels during the past two years. This new adventure opened my mind up to the fact that I could make my life what I wanted it to be. I was in control and I knew I had one bigger leap to take, and that was to start my own business.
In July 2020, Christner Strategies was born. I love to teach people and therefore my business revolves around individual coaching and then providing workshops on a variety of topics to all kinds of teams. My favorite topic is one I do with my colleague on how techniques learned in improv can be applied very effectively in the workplace environment to increase teamwork and improve communication.
