Let Them Be Wrong
Tune in this week as I discuss the wasted energy that goes into proving that we’re right and they’re wrong, and that even if we could convince them through arguing, it wouldn’t bring us any peace. Instead, I have some tips that I use for letting go of my ego, seeing their opinion for what it is, and simply allowing them to be wrong. And trust me, it feels so liberating.

Everything’s Okay and Everything’s Not Okay
Listen in today as I show you what it means for everything to simultaneously be okay and not okay. The contrast between joy and despair or happiness and sadness is what makes up the human experience, and I’m showing you how embracing this perspective will allow you to give yourself the space to believe that everything’s okay, while you’re not okay.

Customer Reviews
Helpful
I have listened to all your podcast. My husband died 3 months ago and your podcast has been extremely helpful. Your calm voice makes it easy to listen to. I find your advice very useful even though I have not learned how to use all of it. I am still working on it. I am listening to each podcast for the second time. Thanks
Can I give this more than 5 stars?
I wish I would’ve found this podcast sooner, it has been exactly what I needed when I needed it most. She’s addressed so many of the concerns I’ve had and taught me to be kind to myself throughout this unique process. The possibility that I can not only have but actually design and create a life that I love (even after loss) brings me incredible hope. I owe that realization to Krista and this podcast.
Saving Grace
This podcast was the first thing I heard out of all that was recommended to me by friends and family that I said, “someone gets it.” It was my lifeline as I started to process a lot of my feelings this summer from my husband’s passing in the winter. It started to give me hope, peace and even a little joy as I realized that my life could not only be survivable, but enjoyable.
