Meet Kristy KUHL

Advisor, Coach and Keynote Speaker

EVERYTHING YOU WANT IS ALREADY INSIDE YOU. YOu just need:

to know where to look

Permission to unleash it

Kristy Kuhl, MBA, is a High Performance Coach, Strategic Advisor, and speaker whose work sits at the intersection of extraordinary achievement and an extraordinary life.

For more than two decades, Kristy has studied, lived, and worked inside the world of high performance.

Today, she works privately with executives, founders, business owners, elite performers, and high-profile individuals, including a platinum Nashville recording artist with multiple #1 hits. Her work has also reached leaders and teams within Fortune 500 and global organizations including Compass Group, Intuitive Surgical, and Hologic.

Kristy is sought out by accomplished people who have already proven they can succeed, but know they haven’t yet reached the edge of what they’re capable of. Her work is about accessing that next level while protecting the energy, relationships, and life that make success worth having.

Known for bringing a unique lens to high performance, Kristy challenges conventional thinking about what it takes to reach and sustain extraordinary levels of success. Her work goes beyond traditional performance coaching, creating a deeply personal and highly strategic experience for people operating where the expectations, opportunities, and stakes are high.

Before launching her coaching and advisory practice, Kristy spent 15 years in the highly competitive medical device industry, where she built multimillion-dollar businesses, led top-performing teams, and established herself as a top performer and leader. For the past eight years, she has brought that experience into her work with ambitious, accomplished people navigating growth, leadership, reinvention, and the pursuit of what’s next.

That journey shaped a philosophy that continues to define her work today: achievement alone is not the highest measure of success. Who you become, how you live, and what your success allows you to experience matter just as much.

Kristy is the host of the Keep Rising with Kristy Kuhl podcast and founder of Success UNLEASHED, where she brings together leading voices in business, leadership, performance, health, and personal growth to challenge people to pursue more of what is possible for their lives.

Beyond her professional work, Kristy’s commitment to service has been a defining part of her life. A lifelong animal advocate, she has fostered and helped rehabilitate more than 500 dogs. Today, she and her certified therapy dog, Millie, continue that commitment through service visits, including spending time with individuals and families in hospice and long-term care.

Whether she is working privately with an executive, founder, artist, or other elite performer, speaking from a stage, or serving alongside Millie, Kristy’s pursuit remains the same:

To help extraordinary people access more of what they’re capable of while building a life that is as meaningful as it is successful.

Today she leads a highly sought-after advisory and coaching practice that includes private client work, executive advisory, and speaking. Her clients include founders, executives, entrepreneurs, and high-visibility individuals who value both strategic insight and the ability to move quickly once clarity emerges.

The center of Kristy's work:

Why do we know what to do, yet still not consistently do it?

For accomplished people, the gap is rarely knowledge or ability. It’s consistent access to their best — especially when it matters most.

That’s where Kristy’s work begins.

LEGACY

For me, legacy is defined by what I leave in someone. I work hard to share wisdom, knowledge and energy - that is freely accessible inside you, whenever you need it. I want to be remembered for both generous and generative. Someone who activated something inside you  that you can no longer ignore, and the experience together was real, profound and fun. 

MY TOP CORE VALUES

  • INTEGRITY: I  believe in doing the right thing, always. I hold myself accountable to the highest standards, ensuring my actions align with my principles, providing a reliable and consistent approach in my coaching.

  • AUTHENTICITY: I embraces being genuine and transparent, creating an environment where clients can feel comfortable being their true selves. This fosters a deep sense of trust and openness, leading to more impactful breakthroughs.

  • RESPECT: I ensures a coaching experience that honors each individual’s perspective and aspirations. Time is our most precious resource. I will always show up on time and utilize every moment of working together.

  • APPRECIATION: I cultivates a culture of gratitude, acknowledging the strengths, efforts, and progress of her clients. Without YOU, my committed clients, I would not be able to exercise my greatest gifts and there isn’t a day that goes by that I am not grateful for YOU.

  • DEVELOP RELATIONSHIPS: Building meaningful and long-lasting connections is central to my approach. I always go beyond surface-level interactions, creating deep relationships that are supportive, empowering, and transformative.

  • PROVIDE VALUE: I am committed to delivering tangible, actionable value in every interaction. My coaching goes beyond conversation—it’s designed to create real, lasting results that drive YOU toward your highest potential.
