Summary
In this heartfelt episode of Thriving Not Surviving, Helen Valentino sits down with Chrissy Redmond — a Critical Care Matron, author, and truth-seeker — to explore her powerful journey through grief, healing, and personal transformation.
Chrissy opens up about the emotional toll of working on the frontlines during the COVID-19 pandemic while navigating profound personal loss. Feeling stuck and alone, she turned to meditation, journaling, and deep inner work as tools for self-discovery and healing.
Together, Helen and Chrissy discuss the power of writing things down to process emotion, the necessity of authenticity, and how shifting our internal narrative can lead to radical life changes. Chrissy reflects on the lessons she’s learned around forgiveness, community, and letting go of limiting beliefs — showing us that even in the darkest times, we can uncover light and meaning.
Her story is a powerful reminder that healing is not linear, and that sharing our truth can ripple out to heal others too.
