Insights on Personal Growth I Mental + Emotional Health I Spirituality Episode 105

In this episode, we sit down with Liv Bowser, the brilliant CEO & Founder of Liberate, a groundbreaking mental fitness platform. As a certified Meditation and Mindfulness Teacher and Yoga Teacher, Liv's expertise in mental well-being has earned her recognition in esteemed publications like Forbes, Business Insider, The Cut, and Real Simple.

Join us as we explore Liv's remarkable journey, from her upbringing in rural Upstate New York, where she cherished the outdoors and had little interest in pop culture, to her unexpected path to becoming a high-growth startup employee. Liv candidly shares her struggles with anxiety, her battle with stress as employee #1, and the valuable advice her dad gave her that changed her perspective on life.

Discover how Liv's personal challenges led her to create Liberate, a company committed to uniting people in the pursuit of prioritizing mental well-being and inspiring each other to become their best selves. We delve into the profound vulnerability and habit-breaking that mental fitness requires, drawing parallels with how music touches our souls and allows us to express ourselves freely.

QUOTES
