About - My Hot Pizza

About Hot Pizza & its creator: Kristina Leone

Hot Pizza was first delivered by Kristina Leone in a TedX style speech, in 2018

This fresh, engaging, thought-provoking keynote speech reveals how she discovered that she had been accepting less than she deserved in the last several years of her 24-year marriage; she had been accepting cold pizza!

Kristina describes how this concept changed her life and relationships as she embarked on a quest for Hot Pizza.

She skilfully weaves delicious relationship tidbits throughout and culminates with powerful affirmation that we All Deserve Hot Pizza!

Everyone wanted more Hot Pizza!

Encouraged by requests for more Hot Pizza, Kristina combined her personal experiences & interests with her extensive education background, public speaking & counselling skills, and became the Creator and Founder of My Hot Pizza.

Hot Pizza is on a mission to improve relationships

Our life is made up of relationships: with ourself, partners, spouses, family members, friends, work/professional associates.

Unhappy, unhealthy relationships, where we are being served cold pizza, negatively affect our mental & physical health and life satisfaction and can hold us in long-term patterns where we keep being served and eating cold pizza.

Kristina has been in this position, as a child & an adult, and does not want anyone else to waste time feeling unhappy, unsatisfied, and unfulfilled in any relationship.

Because no one deserves cold pizza!

You deserve Hot Pizza

The Hot Pizza Three Slice Approach

Cold pizza can creep up on us bite, by bite over time. Before we know it, we can come to a point where we might not know we’ve been served it but we feel that we just can’t eat any more!

Hot Pizza takes an appetising Three Slice Approach to globally reheating lives and relationships: speaking, educating, supporting.

This approach provides a delectable range of supports and easy ordering of your selection to help you to:

🍕stop wasting time, effort and energy in unhappy relationships

🍕make more clear, empowered relationship choices – quickly improve them or let them go

🍕be more confident in yourself and your decisions

🍕be more hopeful about the future of your relationship – either existing or new ones.

Learning

Kristina has been teaching in various forums since 1991. She began her teaching career as a high school music and English teacher, moved into lecturing at university in undergraduate and post-graduate education programs, completed a Master’s Degree (Research), and later employed as Manager of Learning and Teaching in an Australian Education Office, designing and providing professional development programs for teachers and leaders in schools.

Since 2018, Kristina has applied her deep education experience to Hot Pizza and created the Hot Pizza Relationship Framework. This framework is the intellectual property of Kristina from which the Hot Pizza relationship curriculum and ‘re’-education experiences hang. These experiences include fun, practical, online e-courses (See more about e-courses here…) as well as live & online events, date-nights, retreats and workshops. See more about these events here…

Unhealthy relationship behaviours displayed by one or both involved people can be relearnt…but you’ve got to get in the kitchen, try a new, healthy recipe, and cook up the Hot Pizza!

Hot Pizza education provides a sharp knife to cut through relationship confusion and circumvent months of traditional relationship or couples therapy. See more here…

Counselling

Kristina has had a long-held, active interest in well-being and personal growth for herself and others. In 1993, Kristina struggled to recover from a miscarriage & subsequent chronic fatigue and began an exploration of self-healing and self-growth. This encompassed learning, practising, and teaching energy healing – Reiki & Seichem – and hypnotherapy. Kristina opened a wellbeing clinic in Brisbane, Australia, called the ‘I Am Well Shop’ and published a spiritual growth and well being-book called, “I Am” in the mid-2000s and subsequently became a qualified counsellor and member of the Australian Counselling Association.

These experiences, as well as her reflection on relationships throughout her life, have provided Kristina with a long-held empathetic, non-judgemental, and non-discriminatory basis to her work, and an absolute belief in the beauty, capacity, and power of human beings to grow and heal that has carried into her work as a holistic counsellor. Hot Pizza provides these services for people seeking help in their relationship with themself, romantic partner, spouse, family member, friend, or workplace associate.
