Krissie Glass – Emotions, Tiny Trusts & Healing Breath

Emotions, Tiny Trusts & Healing Breath with Krissie Glass Welcome to "Even Just a Little" with Sherri Jones—a podcast dedicated to exploring the majesty of the ordinary and the remarkable power of tiny, courageous choices. Episode 17 marks the conclusion of Season 1, closing this first chapter with licensed professional counselor, trauma specialist, and author Krissie Glass for an honest, hope-filled conversation about navigating mental bumps, embracing difficult emotions, and discovering the freedom that comes from “tiny trusts” in everyday life. Krissie shares her compelling journey—from growing up as a pastor’s kid, to facing the loss of her voice (and identity as a singer), and later, surviving deep personal tragedy. Together, Sherri and Krissie explore the emotional landscape that shapes us—how fear, anger, sadness, and even joy become doorways to deeper healing when we listen, allow, and trust. Krissie’s story offers rich, practical insights: how to identify primary and secondary emotions, reframe negative thought patterns, and use simple but powerful grounding practices like mindful breathing to move through anxiety and pain. Rooted in themes of compassion, humility, and the power of presence, this episode shines a light on the reality that everyone needs help, and that healing isn’t about erasing pain—but about choosing, even just a little, to move with it and through it. With gentle humor, vulnerability, and encouragement, Sherri and Krissie remind us of the gifts that come through listening, being present, and believing in hope—even when it’s dim. If you’re looking for practical wisdom, spiritual encouragement, or just the relief of knowing you’re not alone in the struggle, this episode will bring warmth and possibility to your day. 🎙️ About Krissie: Krissie Glass is a licensed professional counselor, certified trauma specialist, speaker, and author of “Open Letter to Fellow Fighters.” She supports pastoral families across the U.S. and is fiercely committed to giving hope to those navigating mental health challenges.
