For our very first interview, we are lucky enough to chat with Kris Olivas, an integrative therapist, mom of two grown men and all around kick-ass woman. Kris guides us through a wide range of heart-centered, grounding, in the moment techniques to use, especially, while in the thick of parenting.

I ask Kris about crystal children or starseeds, the importance and connection these beautiful beings share with all of us and our planet. How to tune into our children’s own unique gifts and reflecting their light and brilliance back to them. Kris tells us her journey in becoming an integrative therapist and advises, “to keep pursuing your passion even if you don’t know exactly what it is yet.”

We talk of healing past traumas and healing generational trauma that is sometimes unknown to us and how working with the subconscious mind can be a wonderful tool to use for this process. Going through all the emotions, allowing everyone to feel their own as they come up and be okay with some of the ‘darker’ emotions that arise within all of us.

I ask Kris to tell us about the angelic realm and calling unto our angels, guides or beings of light for protection and guidance. Kris shares good advice for anyone on the path of awakening and how to handle a partner on a different path. Finishing our chat with an easy guide to start your own meditation practice.
