Her Path to Success

 Keerti Jeeva is a co-founder of a stealth startup in the San Francisco Bay Area and a Computer Science graduate from UC Berkeley. In her episode on Her Path to Success, Keerti opens up about her entrepreneurial journey, from taking the first steps to navigating the risks and challenges of building a company. She reflects on how being a woman in tech has shaped her experiences and the unique hurdles she's had to overcome in a male-dominated field. Keerti shares the lessons she’s learned along the way, the importance of resilience, and why taking risks is essential for growth. Her story is an inspiring reminder that entrepreneurship requires not only technical expertise but also courage, determination, and the ability to push through barriers—whether personal, professional, or gender-related.

In this episode of Her Path to Success, I sit down with Sophie Hirsch, a Ph.D. candidate in Health Psychology at UNC Charlotte, whose research explores the connections between sleep, stress, and mental health. We dive into why sleep is essential for overall well-being, how stress impacts our rest, and practical tips for improving sleep quality. Sophie also shares her journey in academia, her passion for mental health, and what she’s learned from working in both research and clinical settings. Tune in for an insightful conversation on the science of sleep and its role in success!
