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.

You are….

If you had a freeway billboard, what would it say?

I would say it as LOUD as I could that you are: beautiful, amazing, worthy of love, can take that vacation or get that degree! That the world is full of possibilities and opportunities and don’t ever let another human that is in the same rat race tell you otherwise!

You can and you will! It is and it can be! There’s still time to make a difference in the sad world! Be the light, use the light of others and jump into the dreams you’ve held off for so long!

Everyday is a new chance to start the clock! Is today your day?

Took that vacation!

Let’s hear your thoughts
