Want to change your life? Learn how to live kindly.
Not long ago, Kelly Krause weighed well over 300 pounds, and in her words, “wasn’t living her best life.” Then on Easter of 2013, she made a profound decision. That was the day she decided to live kindly. Moving forward, she would just start doing. No more self-shaming. No more unrealistic timeline. Just small changes. And over the course of a couple of years, those small changes led to bigger changes. And half marathons. And 150 mile bike races. And now, Kelly is an Ambassador for Rapha and USA Cycling. And all because of a simple daily promise she makes to be kind to everyone she meets, especially herself.
