Interview with Kayla Nestor, founder of Wildly Kind

For Kayla Nestor, connecting with her heart is what saved her. Growing up in an environment where drinking was a huge part of one’s identity, she was primed to be on a path of self-loathing habits and out of touch with her true self. Alcohol was what she knew, so that is what she reached for to mask the pain of uncertainty, emptiness, and instability. The heavy drinking habit eventually consumed her life, and things got dark.

Her loved ones supported her when it was time for change. However, what really pulled her into the light was one simple act of kindness. From there, she dedicated her life to the cause, founding Wildly Kind, an OR-based non-profit that spreads joy through individual and community acts of kindness.

Kindness is what gives her purpose and fills her with self-love. This new relationship with herself is what keeps her sober. Listen in and hear how simple acts of kindness and life’s purpose blend beautifully, and be inspired to share some random acts yourself!
