From Personal Struggles to Global Impact: How Kristin Tomasello Builds a Life of Service and Joy

Kristin Tomasello’s journey is a testament to how unwavering faith, compassion, and determination can transform personal challenges into a powerful mission. Witnessing her father’s battle with cancer during her youth, Kristin chose not to be defined by hardship but to rise above it—dedicating her life to uplifting others.
In her newest book, Pray, Give, Laugh: Life Through God’s Lens, Tomasello invites readers into her world of spiritual growth and discovery. Influenced by her travels across Europe, she encourages a mindset shift: viewing life through a lens of prayer, generosity, and unshakeable joy. Kristin’s message is clear—you don't need flawless circumstances to live fully; you simply need to ask, "How does God see me?"
Kristin’s impact extends well beyond the written word. Through The Grateful Hearts Center, she offers a creative sanctuary for individuals with special needs, fostering both talent and confidence. Additionally, she founded the Night to Remember Prom, an unforgettable event designed to celebrate and uplift often-overlooked members of the community.
Her entrepreneurial side comes to life with Costa Sea Suncare, a reef-safe, non-toxic sunscreen line created with both health and environmental consciousness in mind. More than just a business, Costa Sea fuels the mission of her foundation while promoting skin protection and ocean conservation.
Kristin Tomasello lives her faith in action—through every book, event, and product she creates. Her story is a reminder that living with purpose doesn’t require perfect timing or circumstances. With faith as the foundation, the best time to pray, give, and laugh is always right now.
