Slater shares her story of resilience, setbacks and the power of gratitude in overcoming personal and professional obstacles.

Throughout the episode, Slater emphasizes the importance of emotional intelligence, a trait she believes has helped her maintain balance in both her personal and professional life. “If you can be more emotionally intelligent in your personal life, it makes you even stronger in your professional life,” Slater tells Perry.
