A podcast about careers, detours, and the absurdity of work. Host Kristin talks with guests about the twists, pivots, and tiny choices that shape our lives. With humor, feminism, and honesty, Everything Counts (but nothing is real) reminds us that even when nothing makes sense, everything we do counts.
Kristin (she/her) is a nonprofit executive turned podcast host who knows that work is equal parts meaningful and absurd. She’s spent years navigating boardrooms, budgets, and big ideas while also laughing at the small detours that shape us along the way.
With a feminist lens and a love of astrology, espresso, and reality TV, she brings a sense of humor to candid conversations about careers, identity, and why nothing feels real (but everything counts).
