"Not everything your body is telling you is a symptom that needs to be fixed. Sometimes it's grief."
In this episode, Heather shares a deeply personal reflection on what happens when you outgrow the pain, patterns, and identities that once helped you survive but no longer support where you're going. She explores the uncomfortable process of letting go of old stories, relationships, expectations, and the versions of ourselves we've worked so hard to become. From business lessons and the cost of giving away your own authority to the grief that surfaces when your body finally feels safe enough to release what it has been holding, this episode is an honest exploration of healing, growth, and reinvention.
What to listen for:
☑️ The story of "I don't know how to market myself," and how Heather lost her voice
☑️ Why women sabotage themselves through overdoing and taking on too much
☑️ Outsourcing your confidence and intuition, and trusting when things feel off
"I've had a vision of making a bigger impact. It hasn't happened. The reason why it hasn't happened is that I went down a rabbit hole believing other people could solve my problem because I believed their words, not their behavior."
☑️ Investing in the people who are actually in the arena, truly doing their own work
☑️ Sticking with things long enough to allow them to start gaining momentum
☑️ If you don't want to do the hard work in business, then get a job
"Hiring marketing people for my team and then outsourcing my power and my confidence in them cost me so much fucking money, and it almost killed me."
☑️ Listening to your body when it starts communicating that something isn't right
☑️ The reason why the Universe puts things in front of your face until you're ready to listen
☑️ Why our grief is often about who we were when we were with the ones we lost
"When I looked at those panic attacks, I kept thinking, 'What is this?' I truly believe that my body was letting go because it felt safe in the middle of the night. That was when I was at rest, and it was letting go of these old stories."
☑️ Committing to no longer struggling and being done with people who don't show up
☑️ Time under tension triggers disease, which is why it's essential to process your feelings
☑️ When you deeply trust yourself, life challenges start to feel less scary
