Fashion designer and entrepreneur Kristin Juszczyk didn’t wait for a big break. She created her own opportunities. What started as DIY game day outfits to cheer on her husband, NFL fullback Kyle Juszczyk, quickly evolved into something bigger. Today, Kristin is the Co-Founder and Chief Creative Officer of Off Season, a brand that’s redefining fan apparel. She’s gone viral for designing custom looks for stars like Taylor Swift and Simone Biles— and now she’s creating for fans everywhere. In this conversation, Kristin shares how she built her brand from scratch, DM’d her way into the industry, and why betting on yourself is always worth it.

I always truly believed in it. It was me trying to get the world to believe in it with me. Share on X

Dynamic Drive

The Purpose-Fueled Formula for Sustainable Success
In a world fixated on fleeting success, a bold framework for pursuing your goals unapologetically without compromising what matters most. This isn’t just another self-help theory: Dynamic Drive is your practical guide to unlocking your true potential. Through her decades of experience working with top athletes and peak performers across industries, renowned keynote speaker and leadership expert Molly Fletcher has created a proven formula backed by research that outlines the seven keys to sustainable success. The truth is fulfillment doesn’t come from setting and accomplishing goals in isolation. It comes from Dynamic Drive—a holistic approach that connects all parts of you with your purpose and allows you to engage in meaningful growth, both personally and professionally. Unlike traditional approaches that dilute drive into a mere means to an end, which can lead to burnout, Dynamic Drive is a way of life, a mindset. It’s about figuring out the parts of your life where you are playing small or safe or are dissatisfied. Dynamic Drive is the process by which we implement and sustain intentional change. The greatest reward isn’t in what you achieve, but who you become in the process. Your path to sustained high performance in all areas of your life begins here. This is your manual for an aligned, joyful, and relentless pursuit of a better you.
