Turning Adversity into Strength + Cage Fighting at 50 with Kristin Kruse

Published: Sept. 23, 2019, 11:17 a.m.

Today I had the privilege of going deep with Kristin Kruse, my mom! She shared her story about losing her husband (my dad) to short-term memory loss when she was just twenty-one years old. We talked about how she chose to go to rehab when she was 18. We talked about her experience as a single mom, and about her cage fighting at 50! Yes, I just said that, and I’m just as stunned + impressed as you are. She’s used mixed martial arts as a way to cope with loss and a way to break through the hurt and hidden parts of who she is.Some other juicy things We Discussed: Body Image Adoption Anxiety Shame + Pain + Abuse How she plans on helping women who are victims of domestic violence How we can’t give up on ourselvesLEARN MORE AT THE SHOW WEBPAGE AT DANIBOLTZ.COMConnect with Kristin: Email: krgarre@msn.comConnect with Dani:Instagram: @daniboltzWebsite: daniboltz.comNewsletter Coziness: daniboltz.com/newsletterLinks: SBG — Straight Blast Gym, Portland Oregon Wimp to Warrior--- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/honeysuckleandmud/message
