Story Preparation

  • Tell us about a time you were overwhelmed. What was affecting you? How did you help yourself regain calm?
  • Tell us about a time you needed support but couldn’t find it. What did you end up finding comfort in and how did you eventually find like-minded individuals?
  • What does community mean to you? How has your community impacted your life?
  • Tell us about a time that you navigated a health challenge. What was the turning point for you and how did you grow through the experience?
Members will not hear these questions, so answer naturally as part of your story rather than reading the prompt aloud.

Profile Photo + "About Me"

Set up your Peer profile within our Peer Web App at https://peerconnection.kindlyhuman.io/ This step gathers everything we need to introduce you authentically and professionally to members. You’ll provide your contact information (kept fully private from members), upload a profile image, and begin recording your three audio & video experiences directly in the app.

Peers are required to use a current photo of themselves as their profile picture. Your image should reflect a friendly, professional presence—think business casual, approachable, and clear. 

  • Face the camera

  • No hats, sunglasses, filters, or AI-generated images

  • Simple background with good lighting.

Writing Your About Me

Your "About Me" helps members get a warm first impression of who you are, so keep it brief, authentic, and focused on what you want others to know about you.

Aim for 3–5 sentences that highlight a few key pieces of your story—such as your background, interests, values, or what inspires you to connect with others. You don’t need to share anything overly personal or detailed; think of it as a friendly introduction that reflects your personality and the heart you bring to this role. If you’re unsure where to start, consider what you’d say if someone asked, “Tell me a little about yourself.” Keep it simple, genuine, and written in your natural voice. 

Example: As a parent of three elementary age kids, I usually keep busy driving around town. When I’m not volunteering, I play pickleball in a league, and spend time in my garden. I’ve got a lifetime of experiences to draw upon and hope they're meaningful to you.
