There is No Bear. Just Breathe.

We all must face conflict throughout our lives, whether it be with friends, family, strangers, or even God. Kristy Easley's curiosity about people's motivations and behaviors was insatiable from a young age. This curiosity propelled her to pursue a master's in Theatre Arts and an Enneagram Coaching certification. Conflict, a crucial element in every theatre production to move a plot forward, is often perceived as an unwelcome part of everyday life. However, conflict is an essential part of navigating life together and growing in our understanding of ourselves and each other. This book is a testament to Kristy's personal journey, her quest to comprehend the intricacies of our relationship with conflict, and her desire to share her insights simply yet comprehensively. Through personal anecdotes infused with vulnerability, humor, and practical tools, Kristy invites readers to reflect on their experiences and equip themselves for future conflicts.


There is No Bear. Just Breathe: Preparing for the Inevitable Conflict with Strangers, the Church, Friends, Family, and God will help readers understand the foundations of conflict, when to anticipate it, and how to tackle it when it inevitably comes into their lives. By providing tips and advice from her own observations, facts from credible sources, and anecdotes from her life, Kristy prepares readers to face conflict with courage, grace, and hope.
