The Work of Warriors

The Work of Warriors

Kim Rapach

A warrior is defined as one who is in conflict and sacrifices themselves for the good of others. Sadly, in the entertainment industry, and the world of entrepreneurship, this perspective is dangerous. To stay alive, amidst our struggles, we must first fight for ourselves and then fight for the masses. My name is Kim Rapach and I am an integrative coach on a mission to end celebrity suicide. My life’s work is to help entrepreneurs and entertainers escape the darkness that often accompanies high levels of success. What an honor it is to have crucial conversations around entertainment, entrepreneurship, and mental health. “The Work of Warriors” is a series of brave conversations with talented entertainers, and entrepreneurs who are not only using their gifts to make the world a better place, they are modeling mental wellness in ways that inspire others. For our purpose of bringing healing to the world, a warrior’s task is to take great care of themselves, so they may take great care of others. The work of a warrior, for us, is someone who has radical self-acceptance and uses their gifts to make a profound impact on the world. If we are going to have a positive impact on the entertainment industry, we need to do THREE things: 1. Normalize candid conversations around mental health 2. Redefine success so that it aligns with mental wellness 3. Engage with each other from a place of self-love, and healthy boundaries When we fight for ourselves, we heal the world. Therefore, the world needs more people who are willing to fight for themselves. As warriors on the front lines, it is our greatest hope that these conversations will inspire high achievers to care well for themselves and ask for help when they need it. Together, we are all warriors, redefining mental health as mental wellness, and healing the world, one warrior at a time. SPECIAL NOTE To all entertainers, without all of you, we have nothing. Sincerely, thank you for your work, for using your gifts to heal the world. If you are struggling, please reach out to your local community resources, or call the National Suicide Hotline, 988.
