More about Kris...

Kris Fuller has a way of leaving you feeling uplifted and inspired. Her passion lies in helping people embrace self-love and discover the joy that life has to offer.

​

For Kris, life is all about connecting, loving, and lifting each other up. She firmly believes that no matter where we’ve been, there’s something beautiful waiting for us ahead. With warmth and openness, she shares her own journey to encourage others and finds deep joy in being part of her community.

​

Non-profits hold a special place in Kris’s heart. She’s served as an emcee, executive director and consultant for numerous organizations—locally, provincially, and nationally. Before that, she spent five years hosting women’s events, retreats, and paint classes, creating spaces where people could connect, grow, and learn together.

 

Those moments of shared connection are the driving force behind everything she does. Kris also holds a degree in Metaphysical Ministry as well and creates beautiful wedding ceremonies and heartful celebrations of life.

​​

Kris began her career as a classroom teacher, spending 10 years teaching students not just about academics, but also about kindness and compassion. Whether in the classroom or on the sports field as a coach, she loved shaping lives with care and encouragement.

​​

Never one to shy away from new challenges, Kris has explored a variety of career paths, including roles with the Government of BC, the financial sector, private corporations, and hospitality. No matter where she’s worked, she’s been a mentor, cheerleader, and a steady source of encouragement, always helping others believe in themselves.

​​

Kris is also a big believer in setting meaningful goals and chasing them wholeheartedly. She knows firsthand how difficult life can be—she lost her incredible husband, Ben, to colon cancer in 2020. Kris chronicled that journey of love, laughter, awkwardness, and heartbreak in her blog, Cancer Wife Ninja. While the blog is now four years old, it is near to her heart as she works on new projects, Kris continues to share her story to offer hope and strength to others. 

​​

Kris’s story is a powerful reminder that even through life’s hardest moments, there’s always hope, joy, and love to be found. She inspires others to live with purpose, build meaningful connections, and boldly pursue the brighter future that’s waiting for them.
