Job Hunter to Ghost Writer: Krista Giannak

About This Episode

“You should never view your challenges as a disadvantage. Instead, it’s important for you to understand that your experience facing and overcoming adversity is actually one of your biggest advantages.” – Michelle Obama

How you choose to look at things matters. Take Krista for example. There was a period in her life when she was spending serious time job hunting, and day after day, application after application, and was getting nowhere, aside from depressed! So, she decided her 2 choices were – A) do nothing or B) do something – and thus the accidental entrepreneur was born!

Picking herself up from the job-hunt slump, Krista became an avid networker, and then a business owner. Hear her share her story (and jot down some of the awesome tips she shares!) and know that you too can find your way forward. This is “We Are, So You Can.”

About The Guest

When it comes to facing her fears, Krista Giannak is somewhat of an expert. A writer from a young age, Krista has learned to embrace her life’s challenges and is happily known as a writer and skier who happens to be blind. She turned her own stories of struggle and acceptance into inspiring and empowering examples for her clients as they work with her to craft their own business and personal stories. Her writing empowers them to become better known, trusted, and remembered, so their readers feel more comfortable taking action with them.
