Success shouldn't cost you your peace.
Welcome to The Work of Warriors, the mental health podcast for artists, entertainers, creatives, entrepreneurs, and high performers who want to build extraordinary lives without sacrificing themselves in the process.
Hosted by former therapist and nervous system strategist Kim Rapach, this podcast explores the intersection of mental health, nervous system regulation, creativity, leadership, and sustainable success. Through honest conversations with actors, musicians, comedians, producers, executives, entrepreneurs, and other industry leaders, you'll discover what it really takes to thrive both personally and professionally.
Together, we're changing the conversation around mental wellness in the entertainment industry by:
• Normalizing honest conversations about mental health
• Teaching practical tools for nervous system regulation and emotional resilience
• Redefining success to include well-being, healthy boundaries, and authentic leadership
Whether you're navigating burnout, anxiety, creative pressure, trauma, or simply searching for a healthier way to succeed, you'll find practical insights, inspiring stories, and meaningful conversations designed to help you build a life you don't have to recover from.
Because when artists are well, everybody wins.
Thank you for being part of this movement. Together, we're creating a healthier entertainment industry, one brave conversation at a time.

Hey everybody. So back in December of 2023, I had the pleasure of interviewing David Fichette and he was hosting a benefit concert at Belmont University in Nashville, Tennessee. And so I brought him on the podcast real quick just to tell everybody about the event that was coming up. And then I was fortunate enough to be able to attend that concert in Nashville in December. And part of that concert was a group that I immediately fell in love with.
Their music was soothing. It brought a ton of joy. It was beautiful. They were entertaining. They were fun to watch. And you could just feel their music. And so I was also lucky enough to be able to go backstage after the concert and meet a bunch of the artists. And that's where I found today's guest. So I am tickled pink to be able to tell you.
I am absolutely tickled to be able to introduce to you today's guest, the Shindellas. I am absolutely thrilled to introduce to you today's guest, the Shindellas.
