Kristin’s strengths-based approach is grounded in her research and years of consulting to families. She specializes in human motivation and behavioral change, family dynamics, family governance, rising gen education and development, and intergenerational collaboration. Keffeler has a particular fondness for the rising generation in financially significant families, whom she believes are uniquely positioned to create meaningful impact in the world. Kristin uses a lens of strengths to help these family members—and the parents and advisors who guide them—to ignite their potential. 

In November 2022, she published her first book, The Myth of the Silver Spoon: Navigating Family Wealth & Creating an Impactful Life, an Amazon best seller in its category. In July 2023, she published the co-authored book Wealth 3.0: The Future of Family Wealth Advising with Drs. Jim Grubman and Dennis Jaffe.

Keffeler brings a multi-dimensional approach to her work. She earned an undergraduate degree in human biology and chemistry, with an emphasis on human peak performance (1994). She also holds a Master of Science in Management with a concentration in Public Health from the University of Denver (1998), and a Master of Applied Positive Psychology from the University of Pennsylvania (2018).

Kristin’s top character strengths are love, spirituality, gratitude, perseverance, perspective, and love of learning, which she feels grateful to use in her work every day.  She lives in Boulder County, Colorado where she rides her bike every day she can, hugs her three daughters as often as possible, laughs with her husband in all the spare moments, and soaks up the view of the mountains whenever she can.
