This week on the WHOOP Podcast, WHOOP Global Head of Human Performance, Principal Scientist Dr. Kristen Holmes sits down with Dr. Martha Beck, world-renowned sociologist, bestselling author, and life coach, to explore what it means to live in alignment with your true self.
Dr. Beck shares what her journey from academia at Harvard to becoming one of the world’s most sought-after life coaches taught her about life's purpose. Together, Dr. Beck and Dr. Holmes discuss how living out of alignment can lead to physical and emotional distress, why the body often knows the truth before the mind, and how reconnecting with your inner self can restore clarity and fulfillment.
Dr. Beck’s wisdom will leave you rethinking success, redefining happiness, and inspired to create a life that feels truly your own.
