Krysta Paffrath
A podcast dedicated to sharing the stories of women from around the world. Businesswomen. Real estate investors. Mothers. Entrepreneurs. Mountain Movers. Spiritual Women. Independent Women. Every woman has a powerful story to tell and Women Going Big is here to share that.
Welcome to another episode of the Women Going Big podcast! This week, we dive deep into the inspiring journey of Brandy Von Holten—martial artist, entrepreneur, and owner of Von Holten Ranch. Brandy was recommended by previous guest Jen Fizer, and let’s just say, her story is nothing short of extraordinary. From a tumultuous childhood to becoming an international fighter and now owning a flourishing equine trail riding facility, Brandy’s grit and determination shine through.
In this episode, Brandi shares what moved her to Missouri initially—training for the Olympics as a heavyweight fighter. Despite the setbacks, Brandi refused to take no for an answer and went on to embrace teaching, overcoming personal struggles, and building a successful business with her husband. Brandi talks about the mental and physical preparation required for both martial arts and entrepreneurship, how she deals with social media negativity, and why focusing on the bottom of the Christmas tree can be more rewarding. Tune in to uncover more about her journey, the Women’s Chicks in the Sticks event, and her vision for nationwide equine competitions.

Katie is a certified life and leadership coach, but more importantly, she's a mom, wife, daughter, and high-achiever just like many of us. Her journey involves balancing professional success with the thrills and challenges of motherhood, all enjoyed with a touch of mom humor and a glass of wine.

Following her second child and a promotion to HR Director, maintaining balance became a struggle, leading to overwhelming exhaustion and postpartum depression.
But here's where her story, and potentially yours, takes a positive turn. She transformed my life, achieving a balance that allowed her to thrive professionally, cherish family time, and prioritize self-care. She was able to redefine success, overcome postpartum depression, and rediscover my self-worth.

There is something to be said for the personal power and wisdom that we all hold inside of us. Did you know that that power started before we were even conceived? Join me as I sit down with Sama Morningstar to discuss our inner power and where it stems from.
Sama founded the Womb Centered Healing Temple in 2018 as a collaborative space to support people of all genders to learn about the importance of our experiences in and of the womb, heal the wounds inflicted on all of us by the womb abuse and suppression of patriarchy, and reclaim the power of the traditions of womb reverence that predate the patriarchal system. Out of her own personal journey healing from early childhood trauma founded in the domination model of the relationship between men and women, she has emerged with a passionate devotion to remember, re-activate, and re-establish Womb Power as our center of personal power and inner guidance. She has received potent soul purpose visions about the importance of returning to a partnership model of relating with each other and with all beings and diligently applies this model to all of her relationships.

This was such a fun interview for me to do because it's with a gal that I highly respect but haven't had much time to chat with! I'd like to introduce you to Kristin Stephens, a horse enthusiast, a runner, and master of the work/life balance. She was willing to come on the show today and talk to us a little bit more about how she does everything. If you guys need a dose of inspiration, this is the episode to listen to!
If you guys heard my rant a couple weeks ago about my health journey, then you guys will want to tune into this podcast today. I had the pleasure of chatting with Kenzie Groh, a coach for women that want to take back their health without restrictive dieting or hours in the gym. This interview was right up my alley and I hope you enjoy it as well. Make sure to give her a follow on Instagram while you're at it!

Ya'll! Make sure to check out this podcast episode! I was able to Zoom chat with a gal that is not a superb military spouse, she also empowers women to take control of their careers. This week I chatted with April Wilhelm about how tough it can be on military spouses to find stable careers that allow them to move all over the world with their significant others. April came up with a solution for that and now teaches women how to own their career without doing sales or a direct marketing job. Ready for more? Give it a listen!

Happy almost weekend! Even though every day is like a weekend right now.

I know this is something that other women battle with and I just want you to know you aren't alone and to reach out if you want support on your journey as well. Let me know what you think!
Hey guys! Thanks for tuning in! It's a motivational podcast kind of day, and I wanted to talk about addressing fears in our life and how to start overcoming them.

I have had the pleasure before of speaking with a powerhouse woman a while back who lived in Germany, this week I had the pleasure of having a conversation with Derisha, who lives full time in Indonesia! The scope of women that I am able to interview is getting better and better! Derisha is the Founder of DVA Organics and Digital Marketing Queens. She suffered from an autoimmune disease a couple of years ago and she realized it was time to work for herself. That was when she made the leap to being a full-time virtual entrepreneur and not only launched a digital marketing agency, but also her own all-natural skincare line. This gal has overcome all the odds and has come out on top. If you want to see more of Derisha and her accomplishments, follow her on your favorite platform! https://www.facebook.com/dayhorizon/ https://www.facebook.com/dvaorganics/ https://www.facebook.com/digitalmarketingqueens/
If you're trying to pick an episode to listen to, listen to this one! I had the honor of interviewing Natalie Que, who is a badass life coach and podcaster. We were barely able to scratch the surface on her life but this episode gives you a pretty good idea of her story and how she was able to go big in her life. I am looking forward to having her back on the show in the near future to dive a bit deeper but we spoke on boundaries, chapters in your life, and learning how to be comfortable with yourself. Check her out on your favorite social platforms! https://natalieque.com/ https://www.facebook.com/natalieque.podcast/ https://www.instagram.com/natalieque/
On this episode of Women Going Big, I had the opportunity to speak with Jennifer Fizer, who is just an outstanding individual. We dove deep into what it means to follow your heart and really go for the things that you love. This was a great story of a woman who is going big in her own life and is influencing the women around her to do the same. She also just launched her own podcast well called, That Cowgirl Life, which for those of you that know me, is pretty coincidental. Make sure to check her out on social and keep an eye for my interview on her show coming soon! https://thatcowgirllife.com/ https://www.facebook.com/thatcowgirllife/ https://www.instagram.com/jennfizer/

This week, I was able to interview that was not only in another country, someone who was across the world. How cool, right?! I'd like to introduce you to Candra Burns, her foundation was built by volunteering as a child. While attending college, she resurrected the Natural Resources Club, interned with a forestry company, Rayonier Inc., and joined Society of American Foresters in WA State (WSSAF). She currently develops creative media content across many social media platforms, offers online reputation management and monthly monitoring reports, researches content that promotes the sustainable use of wood, and coordinates social media efforts with many organizations.
She realized her passion for media marketing through these efforts. She has been promoting building with wood since 2015 and documents Mass Timber buildings around Europe. She is a proud member of #forestproud and the Society of Wood Science and Technology. Her inspiration comes from the people who gave her hope and the people who give her hope for the future. These are the generous people who work every day to grow and help each other equally. Candra wishes to help others have a voice and build an online presence. She holds two associates degrees from Grays Harbor College and a Bachelor of Science from The Evergreen State College. She is a proud military spouse with the ability to work from anywhere in the world.
