As the creator and host of public radio’s On Being, she takes up the great questions of meaning amidst the political, economic, cultural, and technological shifts of 21st century life. In 2013, Krista took On Being and its emergent Civil Conversations Project into independent production, creating "a social enterprise with a radio show at its heart." She grew up in Oklahoma, attended Brown University, was a journalist and diplomat in Cold War Berlin, and holds a masters of divinity from Yale. Her books include Einstein's God, Speaking of Faith, and most recently Becoming Wise: An Inquiry into the Mystery and Art of Living.

  • You know, hope for me is reality based.

  • I don't use the word language of optimism.

  • It's not wishful thinking.

  • It's deciding, I'm going to live by this vision and I'm going to point at it when I see it.

  • I'm going to embody it when I can.

  • This is what I am going to move towards and hopefully be infectious in that, encouraging others to move towards.

  • So it's not something you have to have given to you, but it is something you have to claim.

  • Today's episode of Good Life Project is actually brought to you by Camp GLP, which is short for Camp Good Life project.

  • So for three and a half days at the end of August, we're taking over this gorgeous 130 acre summer camp, and it's about 90 minutes outside of New York City to create the ultimate summer camp for grownups and entrepreneurs, and makers and aspiring world shakers.

  • Last year, we had about 350 amazing campers from literally all over the world.

  • I think every continent was represented and everyone gathered for this kind of good life love fest and left with the kind of epic stories and friends that you rarely ever make as a grown up anymore.

  • And you kind of never want to leave once you find them.

  • And campers heads were also filled with tons of new ideas and strategies and tools for everything from creativity, to living better, to accelerated business and entrepreneurial growth.

  • We've had everyone from healers, to artists, to tech entrepreneurs, entrepreneurs and CEO's, and even a musician who played Wembley Stadium.

  • But here's the coolest thing.

  • Nobody knew or cared.

  • Because Camp GLP is just not about that.

  • It's not about posturing, it's not about what you do.

  • It's this place where you get to just show up.

  • And many people show up alone, not knowing anyone, and you get to just drop the facade instantly, be embraced and just be you and meet amazing new friends and just totally be yourself while learning how to do amazing things in your personal life, in your business life, in your working life, and just completely refilling your good life tank along the way.
