Indestructible: The Hidden Gifts of Trauma

It’s simple: the world is a better place when WE are strong.


Welcome to Krista Nerestant’s journey from the other side of the globe—the islands of the Philippines—to the United States of America. Indestructible is where she shares the hidden gifts of trauma that have empowered her to not only survive but also thrive in a life most would have given up on.

Krista Nerestant endures multiple traumas as a child in the Philippines and as a young immigrant in the United States. She transforms each trauma into gifts—courage, resilience, forgiveness, and more—succeeding and healing throughout her journey, leading her to become a spiritual medium and inspirational leader to her community through all the success she has accomplished as young as 17 years old. Indestructible, inspires survivors to heal from trauma and thrive rather than just survive. To approach personal wounds as a gateway to self-mastery. Indestructible represents survivors from all social, economic, education, lifestyle, and cultural backgrounds so they too, may heal and discover their very own hidden gifts of trauma.

From professional, emotional to spiritual, since I met Krista, I’ve been able to elevate to another level that allows me to spread the goodness I intend to. She makes the world a better place.
— Gina Doost, Media Influencer, Blogger, and Writer
She keeps faith and being a life coach, and spiritual medium between the spirits and humans, she forged her own path. Her debut book gives a ray of hope that one day everything will work out just fine. I enjoyed each chapter and felt bad that the book ends so soon. This book is for every non-fiction lover because you can learn a lot from it according to your intellectual state. I highly recommend it.
