S1E4: You Can Be Many Things at Once with Kate Berman Jul 01, 2021

Show notes

This week, Jess opens with a top-five-life-moment kind of story, then chats with friend of the pod, Kate Berman, about her recent peaking journey coming out of the pandemic. They get real about mental health and therapy, and keep coming back to this concept of duality that allows them to accept themselves through not only their highs but more importantly their lows.

Kate is a healthcare professional working in the digital innovation space, a certified yoga instructor, and a lover of all things connection. Peaking is so grateful to have had her as the second guest on the show!
