Cheslie Kryst (Re-Release)
insideLINES Podcast
02/04/22 • 47 min
As you may have heard, our friend Cheslie Kryst died by suicide on Sunday January 30, 2022 at the age of 30. Like many that knew her, we are devastated by this news.
It’s hard to get our heads around this. We had her on the show just a few months ago, and she was so charming, intelligent and fun. She dropped so many gems and truly spoke to our souls. We decided to re-release our interview with her so that you could hear how amazing she is.
Also, Cheslie’s mother asked those that want to help, please make a donation to Dress for Success, an organization that empowers women to achieve economic independence by providing a network of support, professional attire and the development tools to help women thrive in work and in life. Cheslie really believed in this organization, so please contribute if you can. Their website is https://dressforsuccess.org
We’re sending lots of love and prayers to her family during this difficult time.
And if you or someone you know is struggling, reach out for help. If you don’t have someone to reach out too, please call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 1-800-273-8255.
Cheslie Kryst, rest in power.
