Show Notes
In this solo episode, Krista turns a travel disaster into a lesson in personal growth + emotional resilience. Through the lens of Kabbalah, she shares the spiritual practices + mindset shifts that helped her stay grounded when everything went wrong—and trust that there might be more unfolding than she could see.
After missed flights, a lost bag, and an unexpected night in Chicago, Krista reflects on finding the light in difficult moments, releasing control, and trusting that what’s meant for you won’t pass you by. She explores how disruption can reveal the exact places where we’re being asked to grow, surrender, and transform.
Krista also gets personal about dating, letting go of the need to make relationships happen, and learning to embrace a more receptive approach to love. This conversation is a reminder that surrender isn’t about everything going according to plan—it’s about staying connected to yourself, your faith, and your purpose when it doesn’t.
We also talk about:
The Kabbalistic concept of tikkun + soul-level lessons
Why Krista sees kindness from strangers as a form of divine guidance
Her personal spiritual “algorithm” + favorite teachings
The difference between intuition + trying to control an outcome
Creating space between a trigger + your response
Why a social or professional detour doesn’t mean you’re behind
