About Kristin
Hello, I’m Kristin Caposella.
I wear many hats, but at the core, I am a life, fitness, and wellness coach dedicated to helping people and pets live healthier, more purposeful lives. Along the way, I’ve also become an author, certified personal trainer, yoga instructor, certified dog trainer, entrepreneur, philanthropist, and proud mother.
For more than seven years, I’ve led Big Hugs for Little Hearts, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit I founded in Charleston, South Carolina, now growing in Hartford, Connecticut. Our mission is to support children overcoming trauma—a mission close to my heart as a survivor myself. My goal has always been to provide the tools, resources, and compassion I once longed for in my own healing journey. I believe storytelling is not only a path to personal healing but also a beacon of hope for others navigating their own recovery.
My journey has been shaped by resilience, reinvention, and a commitment to growth. These values have become the foundation of both my personal success and my coaching practice. I live and teach by the principles of uncovering purpose, embracing authenticity, following your heart, and giving back—because true success lies in living aligned with who you really are.
My Health & Wellness Journey
In 2022, I transformed my health, losing nearly 150 pounds and keeping it off for more than four years. For years, I struggled with PCOS, insulin resistance, hormonal changes, and the realities of aging into my 30s and 40s. Despite endless dieting, calorie deficits, and hours of cardio, nothing worked. My body was sore, my energy low, and my health markers worsening.
When “eat less, work out more” failed me, I sought deeper answers—and I found them. Through science-based strategies, mindset shifts, and holistic wellness practices, I reclaimed my body and my energy. Now, I share those tools with clients so they can break free from frustration, rewrite their health story, and experience lasting change.
Expanding Into Canine Wellness
My love of wellness extends beyond people—I’m also deeply committed to animal health. In 2023, I launched Pawsitivity, LLC, a natural pet nutrition company creating clean, effective supplements to help pets live longer, healthier lives. As a pet parent myself, I saw firsthand how fillers, additives, and misleading labels were shortening lifespans and lowering quality of life for our animals. So, I set out to change that with transparent, science-backed, natural products.
Author & Speaker
Writing has become another powerful outlet for me to share knowledge and inspiration. My books include:
-
Meet Me with Pawsitivity – A guide to building stronger bonds with your pets through positive reinforcement training.
-
Cooking with Chef Ginger and Chef Ruby – A fun collection of wholesome recipes for pets and their families.
-
Pawsitivity Unleashed (Memoir) – My personal journey of healing, resilience, and transformation.
-
Pawsitivity Unleashed Workbook & Journal – A step-by-step toolkit to help others rediscover, reinvent, and reclaim their lives.
Through my writing, I strive to make wellness approachable, joyful, and impactful—for both people and pets.
Life Today
After moving to New England in 2024 and beginning a new chapter following my divorce, I’ve fully stepped into my purpose as a transformational guide. Whether coaching clients, leading organizations, or writing, my mission is the same: to inspire resilience, unlock potential, and help others create lives they love.

I also share free resources and children’s books through my websites and communities. You can join me on Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, TikTok, and beyond for daily inspiration and wellness tools.
My mission is simple: to guide others in breaking barriers, reclaiming their power, and stepping into their fullest potential—mind, body, spirit, and even alongside their pets.
