Each week, you’ll hear powerful conversations and reflections designed to help you: - Lead with humanity in a system that often forgets it. - Heal from the experiences that once held you back. - Build courage, resilience, and meaning both personally and professionally. Through a mix of interviews, solo episodes, and honest reflections, Kristina brings together leaders, advocates, and everyday heroes who are rewriting the script on what it means to succeed, serve, and stay well. You’ll hear stories of transformation from a variety of professionals, executives, and change-makers who’ve faced burnout, trauma, and reinvention ... and found purpose in the process. You’ll learn how to bring emotional intelligence into leadership, create psychologically safe workplaces, and navigate the human side of ambition without losing yourself along the way.

22. Mindset vs. Perspective: Mindset is Health and Wellness

<p>This week Kristina is bringing back mindset work and provides definition to both mindset and perspective. This is an imperative concept when it comes to health and wellness as she feels that mindset work is health in and of itself. Believing that we have the power to adapt, change, and develop our perspectives in a positive and loving way will gain traction in our actions, which ultimately changes our results. Take a walk through the framework and step back into a space of growing with mindset shifts. </p><p>Nina's Run for PTSD (Registration): <a href="https://forms.gle/VQkQwnSmRWYMX8sVA" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://forms.gle/VQkQwnSmRWYMX8sVA</a> </p><p>Nina’s Run for PTSD (FB Event): <a href="https://www.facebook.com/events/1246278305804300" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.facebook.com/events/1246278305804300</a> </p><p><u>&nbsp;</u></p><p>Newsletter/Contact page: <a href="https://ninasjourneylife.com/index.php/contact-me/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://ninasjourneylife.com/index.php/contact-me/</a> </p><p>Partnership (Mission Nutrition): <a href="https://www.facebook.com/marshfieldmission" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.facebook.com/marshfieldmission</a> </p><p>Goli Gummies: <a href="https://go.goli.com/ninasjourney" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://go.goli.com/ninasjourney</a></p><p>BetterHelp Sponsorship: <a href="https://d.docs.live.net/505283bbcb9b1d89/Writings/NinasJourney.LifeBlog/Podcast/betterhelp.com/ninasjourney" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">betterhelp.com/ninasjourney</a></p><p><u>&nbsp;</u></p><p>Social Media Handles</p><p>Facebook (Nina’s Journey): <a href="https://www.facebook.com/kristina.m.howey" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.facebook.com/kristina.m.howey</a></p><p>Instagram (@kmh_ninas.journey): <a href="https://www.instagram.com/kmh_ninas.journey/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.instagram.com/kmh_ninas.journey/</a></p><p>Email: <a href="mailto:ninasjourney.kmh@gmail.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">ninasjourney.kmh@gmail.com</a></p>
