Renowned performance expert, coach, and Global Head of Human Performance & Principal Scientist at WHOOP, Dr. Kristen Holmes has launched a new podcast, Science & Soul.

The show is produced by Steven Bartlett’s company, Flightstory and offers a pathway to personal growth and transformation. It does this by exploring cutting-edge performance science and the wisdom of the human spirit.

Each episode blends scientific research, actionable strategies, and inspiring human stories to show how we can flourish in today’s complex world.

Dr Kristen Holmes says: “For years, I’ve been passionate about bridging the gap between scientific understanding and the profound wisdom of the human experience.

“I’m thrilled to be working with FLIGHTSTORY to bring that vision to life with Science & Soul. It’s a place where we can explore the latest research, learn practical strategies, and be inspired by real-life stories – all in the pursuit of a deeper understanding of what it means to be human.”

Episodes are built on three core promises to the audience:

Empowerment and personal agency: Equipping listeners with practical insights and tools to take control of their personal development and thrive in any context
Transformative and relatable inspiration: Delivering motivational content and real-world stories that inspire change, resilience, and meaningful action
Authentic connection to inner potential: Fostering self-awareness that allows listeners to embrace their true potential and make impactful decisions
Topics featured will include the likes of overcoming adversity, unlocking resilience, increasing physical and emotional health, and the universal quest for meaning and purpose.

Stories of transformation, shared by guests and listeners, anchor the science-driven content with a deep emotional connection, fostering a sense of collective achievement and action towards personal goals.

The first episode, out now, features Dr Judith Joseph, a leading psychiatrist, exploring the silent struggles many of us face such as stress, anxiety and burnout. Future episodes are released every Wednesday on all podcast platforms.
