On this episode of Peaking, Jess catches up on the last 12 years with a friend she's known since the 2nd grade - Caroline Winkler. They find themselves stunned by the overlapping experiences they've had since they were last in each other's lives, all in the search for fulfillment. The two of them discuss their shared pattern of "enduring to a fault" and resolve that maybe quitting is something to be celebrated. They also commiserate over the shame they feel about being performers, Caroline having pursued acting for 8 years and Jess dreaming of the next time she takes the stand-up stage. Not sure if this episode was more for them or for you, boo fam, but either way, it made an impact.
Caroline is a brilliant and hilarious individual who works in tech by day and hones her creative passions (including interior design and DIY projects) whenever else she can. You can find her on Instagram @thegoodsitter and check out her YouTube channel here: youtube.com/CarolineWinklerAngelica. You won't regret following this talented soul!
