Author/Certified Divorce Couch/Transformative Guide

Kristen Crabtree helps people who’ve spent decades being steady, dependable, and invisible rediscover who they are — and remember that it’s not too late to feel alive again.

She’s the author of Be the You That’s More You Than You’ve Ever Been and the creator of Paramour Paradox, a self-recovery ecosystem born from lived experience, not theory. After 52 years of forgetting who she was — including 22 years in a psychologically abusive marriage — Kristen began rebuilding her life by remembering her truth, one layer at a time.

Her book invites readers to do the same through a five-part framework that bridges science, philosophy, and metaphysics in plain language. Each of the four core sections explores a different “body” — Mental, Emotional, Physical, and Spiritual — and includes three chapters:
• The Archaeologist — where readers learn the theory, research, and philosophy that qualify them to begin their own excavation.
• The Excavation — filled with hundreds of interview-style questions and 20–30 exercises per section to help them uncover the artifacts of their own truth.
• The Webs — a sliding-doors story illustrating how small, aligned shifts ripple outward through a life.

The final Integration section offers a radical alternative to traditional goal-setting. Instead of chasing “someday” through SMART goals, Kristen helps readers understand time and consciousness as fluid — showing how alignment with the True Self can collapse timelines and make transformation immediate.
