  • (#42) PTSD and the Mouse
    In this first episode of 2023 Nita shares (amidst the background of life as a mom of 4 kids, a play-date, dogs and a cat) how a normal Sunday morning hope for coffee turns into a fight for sanity and survival of a full scale internal war PTSD / panic attack.  Seeing a mouse unlocks a lifetime of pain and trauma and in this episode Nita candidly shares the whole reality lived with you.  
    Breaking free of generational trauma is hard.  It is really painful and complex to push, pull, climb forward everyday with some slides backward that eat at your confidence with the past's audacity to re-traumatize you at it's whim.  Yet, as Nita shares, you will survive the moment and you will thrive after packing it up and building back a bit stronger and healthier.  "PTSD does not define me, it is a part of me and I am strong enough to continue breaking free of the past I did not have any-other way to live and survive within."  Nita Kruger
    As always you will enjoy Nita's honest, fun style of talking with you as she shares the newest chapter of this beautiful life she is living.

  • (#40) EMBRACE UNCERTAINTY TO UNLOCK THE POSSIBILITY OF LIVING
    Nita pulls in a chapter of THE POSSIBILITY PRINCIPLE by Mel Schwartz -How Quantum Physics Can Improve The Way You Think, Live, and Love- as a conversation study around chapter two.  In this episode we are working to expand our base of knowledge on embracing the unknown in our battle against the fear that sits heavy within our life and cripples our journey, often never releasing it's death grip on us.  Explore with Nita the writings of Schwartz and see how the idea of possibility and embracing the unknown, welcoming the uncertainty will light your life with creativity and opportunity.  
    The energy flow of your life is what you choose.  It can be confining and crippling, or, it can be open and bursting with light.  Where you put your mindset, focus, drive and mental / physical determination matters.  Living in and welcoming the possibility of the unknown as a safe place to reside will lighten the load of your mental burden.  
    The sun will set and the sun will rise regardless of your attempt to control it.  Lean back and allow the sun to do what it does and learn from this coming / closing of each day that no matter where you choose to place your mental energies, tomorrow will arrive just the same.  Learn from this certainty that you have uncounted blessings around you that will carry you forward from the need of certainty and into the realm of possibility.

  • (#35) I didn't change, I found myself.
    Nita a talks candidly in this episode about finding herself and what that actually looks like. How it deepened over time, over the course of a year. When you think that you found yourself once you later realize it was just a topical layer and as you apply more authentic you to any situation as you hold your boundaries firmer and with more authority with less regret or guilt until there's none he realized that this is the person you were always supposed to be and as that happens people are forced to exit your path. In this episode, we look at Nita discovering to be holding true to herself, and the fall out of friends that occurs when you put yourself, not selfishly but needfully first in your decisions. You're still the same person you didn't change but you did find yourself because you'll no longer allow bad behavior. The people who love you, the people who see you, the people who can hear you, the people who evidence that they value you will rise to any opportunity to have a good, hard, difficult, blessed conversation with you because you truly matter to them.
