“It is wise to believe something wonderful

Welcome to Surviving with Dr. Chrissie — a space where truth meets healing and survival turns into purpose. I created this platform to give voice to the stories we’re often told to silence — the ones shaped by trauma, resilience, faith, and the long road to becoming whole again. Here, we talk about real life: the hard days, the messy healing, and the moments of grace that remind us we’re still standing. Through honest conversations, survivor stories, and a little bit of humor and hope, Surviving with Dr. Chrissie is more than a podcast or a blog — it’s a community. Because surviving isn’t the end of the story; it’s where the rebuilding begins.

Relaxing

What are your biggest challenges?

My biggest challenge lately is to relax. Not just physically sitting down but my mind also. Even on vacation I think of all the things I need to get done once back, rather than enjoying the moment I’m in. Even when I feel accomplished by completing a task or a goal, I start thinking about “what’s next”.

I preach self care to so many but honestly my biggest challenge is practicing it for myself!

2025 will be different hopefully as I transition into the new year!

My challenge to myself is to try to sit in the now! Enjoy the now. Embrace the now!
