    A New Year’s Message: Gratitude, Stories That Carried Us, and Reflection with Dr. Summer Watson of KORE Women

    This week on the KORE Women podcast, Dr. Summer Watson, MHS, PhD does her one solo episode of the year. Her message:  How do stories change us when we let them land? Every year, I sit down and record a New Year’s message for this podcast. It is the only solo podcast that I do each year. And every year, I have to get quiet first. When I started the KORE Women Podcast, I didn’t know how to produce a show. I didn’t know how to edit. What I did know was that women needed a safe place to talk honestly about their lives and their work. Eight years later, that’s why I’m still here. I’ve had the honor of listening to women from all over the world- women who lead, teach, heal, build, question, and create. Women who have lived through hard seasons and kept going anyway. Every conversation has changed me. Every story has reminded me why listening matters. This New Year’s episode isn’t a highlight reel. It’s a thank you. I share my gratitude for our guests, our listeners, and the community that continues to carry this work forward. I also reflect on the growth of KORE Women, LLC, and why moving humans forward in business, education, healthcare, and community matters now more than ever. This episode is personal. It’s reflective. And it’s an invitation to stay connected to the stories, to one another, and to the work of belonging as we step into 2026.

Her journey from moving to a new country as a teenager to turning personal loss into purpose reveals how resilience and compassion can transform our most painful moments into growth.
