Emotionally Uncomfortable
“Who you are when you have to make an emotionally uncomfortable decision says everything about how quickly you will get results.” In this episode, Heather shares a grounded, no-bypass conversation about decision-making when your nervous system is activated, clarity feels unavailable, and quitting would be easier than staying in it. She unpacks why decision fatigue isn’t about doing too much, but about avoiding the decisions that actually matter, how unmade choices quietly turn into identity-level habits, and why real momentum is built by staying in motion even when outcomes, other...

“Almost everybody will overestimate how much they can grow in one year. At the same time, they underestimate how much they can grow in five.” In this episode, Heather talks with Jay Papasan about why doing more isn’t the answer, how relentless productivity can actually work against you, and what happens when you commit to the one thing that truly matters. This is a conversation about focus as a skill, boredom as a feature of mastery, and the quiet, intentional choices that make everything else easier (or unnecessary). If you’re tired of spinning your wheels and ready to aim...

“What happens when you talk about the things that you want to do is people start to make connections for you. And this is exactly what happened and what has enhanced this year's experience.” In this episode, Heather explores what happens when we stop waiting for the perfect moment and start choosing courage instead. This isn’t a travel highlight reel; it’s a behind-the-scenes look at how Heather and her family prepared, decided, and executed the big life shift of snowbirding—without burning out their family or their bank account.

“At the end of the day, our brains are wired to crave peace and order, and our outer environments can mirror our inner environment, or vice versa.” In this episode, Heather sits down with Katy Wells to explore overconsumption and overcommitment, as well as the many forms of clutter that quietly erode our patience, focus, and presence. Many women find themselves struggling to concentrate or feeling constantly overwhelmed, which leads them to wonder, “What’s wrong with me?” This conversation reveals that it’s decision fatigue and unexamined accumulation pulling attention in too many...

“I put myself in situations where I didn't have a back door and couldn’t run away from myself. The natural consequence was that I felt lighter, and I’m finishing the year more proud of myself than I've ever been, with more confidence.” In this episode, Heather guides you through her unique process for creating a personalized, focused plan for 2026 that brings real lightness into your life. But that doesn’t mean bypassing internal struggles or heavy emotions, because you can’t reclaim your time or create more peace without addressing your biggest energy leaks. If your goal is to...

“Success is your child getting what they want out of life, including who they want to be and how they want to be.” College is rarely the right next step for our kids, yet parents are so bought into this outdated view of education and success. In this episode, Heather sits down with Degree Free founder, Hannah Maruyama, to unpack the best ways to support our teens in building skills that help them uncover their passion at the right time, rather than shoving them back onto the “education” conveyor belt that saddles them with freedom-stealing debt. This isn’t about being anti-education;...

“I'm a fan of quality versus quantity and reading one book all year, but mastering everything that you have learned in that book.” In this episode, Heather shares her top six books for growing as a parent, business owner, and person in 2026. But these aren’t just any old books to add to your stack; they’re the books she keeps on hand to read and reread because they’re a wealth of knowledge and insight that can change your life, if you integrate their wisdom. The big takeaway from this episode that will transform your life if you follow it? That you don’t need to read more. You need...

“Money is one of those things that people just consider as an afterthought. The older you get and the more responsibilities you have, you start to realize money is a tool, and it's required for health and happiness.” In this episode, Heather sits down with Douglas and Heather Boneparth to dig into the often uncomfortable but wholly necessary work of talking about finances with your partner. Together, they unpack what really happens beneath the surface when couples avoid money conversations, and how bringing these truths forward can transform the intimacy, teamwork, and emotional safety in...

“I understand that if I'm too comfortable, it's time to grow. Because if I'm not growing, I'm dying. And if I'm dying, I'm going to live a miserable life.” In this episode, Heather reflects on three big lessons she’s learned over the last 12 years since her cancer diagnosis, exploring the significance of facing fears, recognizing triggers as opportunities for growth, and the importance of self-reflection in embracing a fulfilling life. This conversation isn’t about recounting the many challenges she faced during healing; it’s about celebrating and learning to live more fully. Because...

“When resistance is coming up, it's just trying to show you something, and it's an area in your life that can be healed, that can stretch you, that can put you in a position and in an opportunity for you to step into what's next for you.” In this episode, Heather sits down with Tracy Matthews to dig into how we master resistance, find the courage to move toward our big visions, and cultivate a more profound sense of trust in ourselves and the universe. Whether it’s navigating health issues, parenting children, or building a business, we all bump into those uncomfortable...
