Description
"Wonder in the Weeds" with trauma therapist Cristie Ritz-King.
This is the show where we talk about how to live, love, and grow right alongside grief, change, and the "wild messiness of this human life".
Moving beyond the role of the "blank slate" therapist , Cristie combines her professional experience with her personal stories of challenge and reinvention. We're not about toxic positivity or influencer-style advice. Instead, this is a space for authentic connection, community , and understanding that we don't have to wait for life to be perfect to feel good.
Each week, we'll talk about:
Finding "wonder" even when you feel like you're "walking through the weeds".
Navigating personal change, from parenting to finding your authentic self.
The "Weeds of the Week," where we discuss everything from small daily annoyances to the big things that bother us.
Sharing stories to feel less alone in our experiences.
Join us to get through the weeds together.
