About Kris

I’m Kris Carr, New York Times best-selling author and wellness warrior. On Valentine’s Day in 2003, I was diagnosed with a rare and incurable stage 4 cancer. This whiskey tango foxtrot moment (that’s military lingo for WTF?!) sparked a deep desire in me to stop holding back and start living like I mean it! I sold everything and hit the road on a deep healing pilgrimage. What I learned transformed my life forever – now it can transform yours. Since then, my journey has ignited a global wellness revolution that’s resonated with thousands of health, spiritual wealth and happiness seekers. CanSer babes and “Prevention is HOT” cheerleaders alike have flocked to my books and workshops to learn how to look and feel better, lose weight, have more energy and nourish their minds, bodies and spirits – even Oprah wanted a piece of the Crazy Sexy action.

My wake-up call encouraged me to make a total lifestyle upgrade inside and out. It taught me how to listen to my brilliant inner guidance, brought me back to nature (my church), the garden and the people and animals who set my heart ablaze. I learned that a nutrient dense, plant-based diet rules, the Standard American Diet kills, stress sucks (all life-force), exercise is non-negotiable, joy is utterly contagious, and having fun must be taken seriously. As a result of all my juicy living and learning, I created the ultimate blueprint for a healthy and happy life, and I want to share my secrets with fabulous you!

My third book: Crazy Sexy Diet (#1 Amazon Best Seller, NY Times Best Seller) will blow your mind. It’s my bible. Basically, I took all the nutrition and lifestyle tips I gathered over the years and tucked it into one handy-dandy book. Let it be your bible too. If you do, you’ll stack the vibrant health odds in your favor by making energy deposits instead of constant withdrawals. Play big. Grab your copy today hot stuff!

You can follow my journey from cancer diagnosis to gorgeous, love-a-go-go living in my documentary Crazy Sexy Cancer, which I wrote and directed for TLC. Check out my first two books, Crazy Sexy Cancer Tips and Crazy Sexy Cancer Survivor, my must-have manuals for triumphing over disease and embracing an integrative approach to healing. Psst … even if you don’t have a major medical life lemon, you’ll find lots of spot-on advice to add a bounce to your step and a boost to your life! Oh, and you’ll laugh a lot – unless you’re quite proper (and a splash prim), then you won’t like my cussin’ and swagger.
