About this episode

Are you feeling stretched thin between aging parents and growing kids?

In this solo episode, Heather opens up about navigating life in a multigenerational home while protecting her identity, energy, and emotional health along the way.

Listen in as she shares:

🩶 How she uses family triggers as portals for healing, not self-abandonment

🩶 The mindset shift that helped her stop carrying what isn’t hers

🩶 Her most powerful boundary and routine practices in this demanding season

If you’re caregiving from both directions, this episode will help you choose yourself first, without guilt.

***

Let's be real—you don't need another thing on your plate.

What you need is a SYSTEM that works. The Time Rich Reset gives you back 10+ quality hours every week (that's 520 hours a year!) without the overwhelm.

My clients don't just manage time better—they transform how energy flows through every part of their lives. Most see results in the first 72 hours.

If you're done with band-aid solutions and ready for lasting change, this is your next move.
