Resistance with Kit Perez

from Resilient Mental State Hosted by Kyle Shepard and Kit Perez

Kit Perez | Grey Cell Systems is a mother, wife, counterintelligence and deception analyst, liberty activist, trauma counselor, teacher, homesteader, writer on Substack of The Shepard Scale, host of Change the Game podcast, co-author of Basics of Resistance and author of The Mindset of Resistance. She holds two master’s degrees, one in Intelligence and the other in Trauma Counseling and Crisis Intervention. She also holds a bachelor’s degree in Counterintelligence with additional studies in Criminal and Intelligence Profiling. Kit is one of the most brilliant writers and speakers I know. She developed Grey Cell Protocols to assess human conditions and systems to detect vulnerabilities and opportunities. While her work and all of her credentials are impressive, it’s the experiences behind them that make her truly interesting, credible, and inspiring. In this conversation, Kit shares the history behind her Why. From the military, to abuse, loss, militias, the dark web, reorientation, transformation, and faith, she doesn’t hold back. We discussed trauma, healing, growth, vulnerability, validation, weirdness, communities, and interconnectedness. Kit’s story demonstrates the power of resilience and how adversity can be used to elevate your purpose and life. Anything is possible for those who are willing to endure, explore, and evolve. On April 30th, Kit’s newest book she co-authored with Donald Vandergriff, a retired US Marine and Army Officer who specializes in military leadership, decentralized command, and maneuver warfare, will be released. It is titled Mission Command & The Grey Cell Protocols. Pre-order here. Kit’s Substack and podcast will sharpen your thinking and orientation to reality. I highly recommend both. Some of her recent written work includes: * The Discipline and Process of Synthesis * Spotting Deception Under Pressure * Orientation is the System * Why I’m Leaving the Three Percent (a powerful article she wrote ten years ago) * Why Good People Become Infiltration Vectors * Personality vs. Pathology * Pornography and Orientation: An Operational Hazard Resilient Mental State is a reader-supported publication.
