  1282: Grit, Muscle, and Connection 16.09.2026 34min

  "Grit will keep you going. But when you just keep showing up because you're living in a place of survival, sometimes you gotta fight like hell to feel alive." In this episode, Heather explores the complicated relationship many ambitious women have with striving, success, and the never-ending pressure to keep moving toward what's next. Ambition is a powerful force, even a deeply human and spiritual desire, but when we live in the shadow of our strengths, the very qualities that help us achieve can begin to drain us. She talks about recognizing when your to-do list has become more nourished than your soul, how depletion can quietly shape your decisions, and why the body and our lives often start communicating through symptoms, frustration, and anger when something needs to change. This conversation also looks at what it takes to build the grit and resilience to keep showing up for yourself, invest in your growth, and direct your time and energy toward the life you actually want to create.   What to listen for: ☑️ Staying in your own lane and focusing your energy to get to the next-level vision ☑️ Living in the shadow of your strengths and why the dark side of ambition is burnout  ☑️ Investing in personal and professional development so that you don't sink   "The dark side of ambition is burnout because when you're living in the shadow of your strengths, you are going to burn out to a crisp. You're going to be in this state of lack." ☑️ Ambition as spiritual desire and a sacred fundamental of our soul as humans ☑️ So many women aren't feeding their souls; they're feeding their to-do lists ☑️ Why the symptoms of the body and your life will often appear as anger   "When you normalize debt and not profit, you walk around making decisions from a place of depletion, making decisions that continue cycles that are not in alignment with where you want to go and what you actually want to grow." ☑️ Things Heather did to turn her body around when it started speaking to her ☑️ Becoming a life athlete with the grit to keep showing up, even when you don't want to ☑️ Feeling connected to others requires connecting with yourself first   "The more you invest time and energy in yourself—seeing yourself, understanding yourself, and valuing your precious time and energy—this is where we feel truly alive and connected to ourselves." ☑️ What are you prioritizing, and where is your time and energy going? ☑️ Resistance training will bring you back to life when you're struggling ☑️ You don't need another strategy, but you may need accountability   *** For those of you who are ready to stop feeling drained, overextended, and out of alignment… join me inside the Energetic Time Management Accelerator, a focused experience designed to help high-achieving women uncover what's draining them, clarify what truly matters, and create a simple plan that fits their life.

  1281: How Good Are You Willing to Feel? With Dr. Maggie 09.09.2026 49min

  "If you want to feel alive and energized and lead people, you've got to do things differently." In this episode, Heather and Dra. Margarita Ramírez (aka Dr. Maggie) step into a deeply personal conversation about what it means to take ownership of your health, question the beliefs you've inherited about your body, and remain open to possibilities outside the systems and approaches you've always known. Heather shares her own journey navigating the long-term effects of cancer treatment, hormonal changes, fatigue, and the persistent feeling that something in her body was off, leading her to seek a different perspective while living in Mexico. From Heather's experience with placenta injections to the broader conversation around inflammation, metabolism, peptides, and preparing the body for healing, this episode opens the door to a larger question: how good are you willing to let yourself feel? What to listen for: ☑️ Medical tourism and expanding your healing team beyond traditional medicine ☑️ No longer doing anything that isn't life-enhancing, or that leads to burnout ☑️ Results Heather experienced from getting placenta injections in Mexico   "Listen to your body because if you have any kind of symptoms that you normalize, it's not you. It's something inside of you that needs to change" ☑️ What regenerative medicine is, and how Dr. Maggie started practicing it ☑️ Finding a doctor that knows how to listen to what your body is saying ☑️ The importance of getting different perspectives on health issues   "The placenta is most important for getting nutrition to babies. If you realize that it's responsible for giving growing babies nutrition, imagine what kind of benefits you can get from that." ☑️ Having a proactive, long-game perspective, and looking from varying angles ☑️ The reason placenta healing works more quickly at a cellular level ☑️ Learning how to value your health on a holistic, deep level About Dra. Margarita Ramírez: Dr. Margarita Ramírez Amaro is a family medicine specialist with more than 17 years of experience dedicated to the holistic health of her patients. Throughout her career, she has focused on going beyond conventional treatments; instead, she addresses the root cause of disease through a comprehensive and highly personalized approach. In addition, she holds a Diploma in Functional Medicine with a body–mind perspective. Over the past four years, she has developed extensive experience in functional medicine, working with the firm conviction that proper nutrition and targeted supplementation can significantly improve health and overall quality of life. As a result, her approach seeks to treat the body from within. By doing so, she strengthens the body's natural self-regulation mechanisms and emphasizes long-term prevention rather than temporary symptom relief. Connect with Dra.

  1280: There Are Four Types Of Profit. I Bet You're Only Chasing One. 02.09.2026 51min

  "When things look successful on the outside, but they don't feel successful on the inside, that's because you're only obsessed with one type of profit." In this episode, Heather explores the four types of profit and why financial success is only one piece of a much bigger picture. In other words, what if the life you want isn't just about making more money, having more time, or checking more boxes, but about learning how to create a life that actually feels good to live? This conversation is an invitation to rethink what you're actually building and ask whether the way you're spending your time, energy, and attention is creating more of the life you want or quietly pulling you further away from it. Because true abundance isn't about squeezing more out of yourself. It's about learning to value your time, your body, your relationships, your purpose, and your financial wellbeing as crucial parts of the same life. What to listen for:☑️ Why financial literacy is a core foundation, a basic human need, and a skill ☑️ Understanding the four types of profit and why you can't only focus on one ☑️ Taking radical responsibility for how you want to feel and not masking   "You're still not taking radical responsibility for how you want to feel. You're not honoring your boundaries, your vision, your capacity. You're hiding and playing small because you're avoiding being human." ☑️ If you're giving less to yourself, how can you ever be more for your child? ☑️ Being the woman and role model that your 20-year-old self would look up to ☑️ The reason most women back away when on the verge of transformation   "You have to think differently. You have to fight for a new life, a new identity. You have to give a fucking shit. A sliver of it. That's it, and do something that's slightly uncomfortable." ☑️ It's one thing to be scared and uncomfortable; it's another to lie to yourself ☑️ You're not 'doing everything for your kids' if you're being performative ☑️ When you're constantly reacting, your body starts deteriorating   "If you have zero emotional intelligence skills, you'll have zero time on your hands. You're going to feel so unfulfilled, and you are going to waste your one precious life." ☑️ Learning how to put yourself first on your calendar, and why it matters ☑️ Understanding what your body craves and how to not eject from your body ☑️ The key to using time in alignment with the life you want to live *** For those of you who are ready to stop feeling drained, overextended, and out of alignment… join me inside the Energetic Time Management Accelerator, a focused experience designed to help high-achieving women uncover what's draining them, clarify what truly matters, and create a simple plan that fits their life.

  1279: How to Build a Calendar That Supports Your Life With Megan Sumrell 26.08.2026 44min

  "Time management is not something you're born with or born without. It's a skill that anybody can learn if they're being taught in a reasonable way." In this episode, Heather and Megan Sumrell explore what it means to stop fighting time and start building a life that actually has room for you to live. So many of us approach planning from a place of pressure, trying to squeeze more into every available pocket of time, sacrifice sleep to catch up, or follow rigid systems that were never designed around our actual lives. But creating a calm, organized life isn't about becoming more productive; it's about building enough structure to protect what matters while leaving space for the unexpected, the people we love, and the parts of ourselves that can't be scheduled. Learn how to let go of the shame of not doing it all, increase your capacity instead of constantly playing catch-up, and redefine productivity so that the white space in your calendar becomes part of the life you're creating. What to listen for: ☑️ Getting into a relationship with time rather than always trying to "beat it" ☑️ The sooner we learn to build ourselves back into our lives, the better we'll feel ☑️ Why the way you're planning might be keeping you perpetually behind   "Learning how to create a plan that supports enough structure to ensure important things are getting done while also leaving space to absorb life and the reality of life, that's really the sweet spot." ☑️ Releasing the shame and pressure we put on ourselves to plan perfectly ☑️ Sacrificing your sleep is not the way to create more time, and what to do instead ☑️ Why you should never follow someone else's rigid morning routine   "A successful tool or system is one where the steps that you follow are the same for everybody, but the inputs are uniquely yours, and the outputs are uniquely yours." ☑️ Goal setting is a waste of time when you don't have control of your daily life ☑️ How to increase your capacity so that you don't begin each week already behind ☑️ Teaching our children time management skills so they can thrive   "The stuff that's important to me is represented on my calendar and protected to ensure I can get them done. But my identity is in all the white space on my calendar." ☑️ Breaking the belief that you have to be productive in your open pockets of time ☑️ Learning to think like someone who knows how to create a calm, organized life ☑️ Building a full life that isn't stressful or constantly overbooked About Megan Sumrell: Megan Sumrell is a former corporate executive turned entrepreneur.  As a business owner, mom, and wife, she knows exactly how hard it is to juggle #allthethings while still maintaining your own sense of self and purpose. As the CEO and Founder of The Pink Bee, she took her 20+ year career in systems and processes and applied it to all things time management, organization and productivity.

  1278: What Every Adult Needs to Hear From the Next Generation 19.08.2026 1t 46min

  "Before you try to tell your kid what to do, you've got to look at yourself. You've got to really reflect on the things that you're doing." In this episode, Heather sits down with two remarkable young adults who have been part of her life in different ways: her 21-year-old son, Logan, and Brooklyn, a longtime family friend she's had the privilege of watching grow into adulthood. Woven together with her reflections, these conversations offer an honest look at what our maturing kids are craving from the adults around them and what happens when we choose to guide rather than control. They explore the lasting impact of feeling seen, the tension between protecting our children and preparing them for life, and the ways our own fears, expectations, and unresolved stories can shape the next generation without us realizing it. Whether you're raising young children, parenting adult kids, mentoring someone, or simply reflecting on your own upbringing, this episode is an invitation to listen with fresh ears. Sometimes the greatest lessons about leadership, connection, and emotional maturity come from the very people we've been trying to teach all along. What to listen for:  ☑️ When children live on their own and learn what "no one's coming to save you" means ☑️ Embracing uncertainty and what it looks like to have a safe support system in life ☑️ The privilege of suffering and how it helps us heal and grow more quickly   "Until I faced my shit and realized all the things that I need to overcome, all the overwhelming feelings and the fear and just all my shit, that was when I started my journey of getting through it and slowly chipping away at some big issues." ☑️ No matter where you go, you still have to face yourself and work through your shit ☑️ How the current systems are manipulating young adults into focusing on money ☑️ Experiencing contrast and navigating the projection of fear as a parent   "At the end of the day, there's not one parent that's great. Parents fuck up. We're all human beings. We're all learning. It's just a matter of how much you choose to learn." ☑️ How getting in touch with your emotions can change you and your entire life ☑️ Dropping our conditioning to open up more possibilities in our lives and careers ☑️ Understanding the only control we truly have in uncertain situations   "Just take the action. Like a game, if you take the action, it will happen, but you just have to have that consistency. You have to push yourself. You can't half-ass it."  ☑️ Knowing when to show support and when to hold your children accountable ☑️ Being present for your kids without judging their lives or projecting onto them ☑️ The importance of aligning your environment with who you want to be   *** For those of you who are ready to stop feeling drained, overextended, and out of alignment… join me inside the Energetic Time Management Accelerator, a focused experience designed to help high-achieving women uncover what's draining them, clarify what truly matters, and create a simple plan that fits their life.

  1277: Inside a Psilocybin Retreat: What to Expect & How It Changes You | with Eddy Tony 12.08.2026 42min

  "Living life from a different perspective heals the past and also paves the way for the future as well." In this episode, Heather and Eddy Tony explore what it really means to heal, not by becoming someone new, but by integrating the parts of yourself you've spent years trying to outrun. This conversation challenges the idea that transformation comes from a single breakthrough or magic solution, inviting us to consider a gentler process of awareness, compassion, and daily practice. At its heart, this episode is an invitation to trust your own unfolding, soften into the process of becoming, and discover that healing comes from welcoming every part of yourself home, rather than erasing who you've been or clinging to outdated identities. What to listen for: ☑️ How we can change our identity, personality, and how we feel emotionally ☑️ There's no magic bullet for healing, but there is a process to get lasting change ☑️ Why you need to see it, feel it, balance it, and integrate it to step out of old loops   "There is no magic bullet. Where psychedelics are really great at is seeing it, increasing awareness within yourself about old patterns, loops, and behaviors." ☑️ Why everything bubbles up to the surface when it's ready to be transformed ☑️ Navigating the grief of letting go of your former identity and stepping into freedom ☑️ How to commune with the parts you're releasing with deep compassion   "The grieving dissolves and happens on its own because that part also has a home within yourself, within themselves. As opposed to extracting that part, they can integrate and soften back into wholeness." ☑️ Healing doesn't have to be heavy; oftentimes, it's in the small daily decisions ☑️ Looking for the positives inside of challenges, and how that helps us heal ☑️ Coming into full coherence and acceptance, removing the inner war   "It doesn't have to feel so heavy. So leaning into what is happening and seeing the positives that are coming out of it as well. It's about bringing the person into full coherence of what is actually going on." ☑️ Where psilocybin or psychedelics come in and how they create more freedom ☑️ Taking the tips and wisdom of our natural world and applying it to ourselves ☑️ How the intention to release and let go can change your life   Be sure to also listen to episodes 1191, 1203, and 1236 for more!

  1276: What My Three Boys [13, 16, 21] Forced Me to Stop Doing Recently 05.08.2026 36min

  "You cannot make an impact on anybody unless you are willing to change your internal ecosystem." In this episode, Heather challenges some of the most deeply rooted assumptions about parenting, leadership, and what it really means to prepare our children for adulthood, especially our boys. She takes an honest look at the emotional dynamics between men and women, how dependence is often learned rather than our inherent nature, and why both sons and daughters benefit when we teach responsibility, communication, and resilience instead of rescuing. At its heart, this episode is an invitation to lead with intention, hold loving boundaries, and recognize that our role as parents doesn't end when our children become adults What to listen for: ☑️ Why not everyone has the DNA to go for the next level in their life or work ☑️ Making things happen is actually pretty boring, which is why most people don't do it ☑️ The biggest lie we're told is that we're done parenting when our kids reach 18 "I've made the conscious decision that I'm not here to wipe my kids' ass for the rest of their life, but I am here to be their rock, their person, and their guide. When we choose to be a leader to our children, to be the integrator, to support them along this journey, things will change." ☑️ 'Independent men' don't exist, and what that means for us as women ☑️ Why men haven't been able to emotionally free themselves from women yet ☑️ All humans struggle; some are just better at communicating it than others "I had to soften, and the number one thing that I realized is men struggle too. I didn't realize how much they struggle, and I didn't realize how dependent they are on nurturing." ☑️ Without evidence of what they're carrying, how do you know you carry more? ☑️ Raising men that understand emotional labor and domestic responsibility ☑️ Understanding resistance and learning how to hold hard boundaries "I've taught them that they can use their voice to communicate what's going on, and that I'm going to actively listen. And not all their problems need to be fixed by me. One of the core wounds that I see women do is needing to fix their behavior." ☑️ Men learn to be dependent on women based on how they were raised ☑️ Teaching your male children the skills they need to become independent ☑️ Why letting your children have their own identity outside of us is so crucial *** For those of you who are ready to stop feeling drained, overextended, and out of alignment… join me inside the Energetic Time Management Accelerator, a focused experience designed to help high-achieving women uncover what's draining them, clarify what truly matters, and create a simple plan that fits their life.

  1275: What Happens When Your Soul Aligns With Your Life With Corey Colwell 29.07.2026 1t 1min

  "We should not be listening to things outside of us. Your body is telling you what you need." In this episode, Heather and Corey Colwell explore what happens when life forces you to stop long enough to hear the messages your body has been trying to communicate all along. Through a remarkable story that begins with a coyote bite at two years old and winds through years of health challenges, motherhood, overachievement, and a profound near-death experience, this conversation invites you into the space where intuition, healing, and purpose converge. At its heart, this episode is about learning to listen, not to the endless noise outside of us, but to the wisdom already living within our bodies, our souls, and the quiet nudges that keep trying to guide us back toward alignment, vitality, and a life that feels deeply alive. What to listen for:  ☑️ How getting bitten by a coyote at two years old shaped her passion in later life ☑️ Busyness and constantly moving forward keep you from listening to my body ☑️ The near-death experience that helped Corey choose to be in this life   "When people say fighting for your life, you have to recruit everything to get alive again. And so I fought my way back from that moment." ☑️ The importance of listening to that intuitive primal knowing when it comes up ☑️ What it feels like when your soul fully aligns with your body and human experience ☑️ Why it wasn't enough to just be alive and in bed, and what helped turn things around   "I was alive, and everyone's like, 'Great, just stay in bed.' And what happened is I started to experience an intellectual and passion death because my entire why is to solve problems and innovate." ☑️ How to start answering the question of what your body actually needs to thrive ☑️ Why we try to control the outcomes in our children's lives rather than surrendering ☑️ We shouldn't be listening to things outside of us; we should be leaning in   *** About Corey Colwell: Corey Colwell doesn't study problems.

  1274: [Life Update] I Outgrew My Pain (& It Hurt Like a B!+CH to Let It Go) 22.07.2026 55min

  "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 *** For those of you who are ready to stop feeling drained, overextended, and out of alignment… join me inside the Energetic Time Management Accelerator, a focused experience designed to help high-achieving women uncover what's draining them, clarify what truly matters, and create a simple plan that fits their life.

  1273: Hyper-Independence Is Keeping Women Stuck With Kelly Hubbell 15.07.2026 50min

  "You're breaking generational patterns by having the capacity to be present with your kids because you're not snappy, angry, and frustrated." In this episode, Heather and Kelly Hubbell challenge one of the most deeply ingrained beliefs many women carry: that doing it all is required to be a good mother. This conversation reframes asking for help as a leadership skill that allows you to reclaim your time, energy, and presence for what matters most, not as a luxury that's out of reach. They dive into the emotional resistance that comes with outsourcing, the hidden beliefs that keep us clinging to unnecessary responsibility, and the freedom that becomes available when we stop measuring our worth by how much we can carry alone. Whether you're building a business, raising a family, caring for aging parents, or simply feeling stretched too thin, this episode is an invitation to rethink how you support yourself, challenge cultural expectations for women, and create a life where you no longer have to choose between thriving and doing it all. What to listen for: ☑️ The cultural lie for women that says burning out makes you a good mother ☑️ Why life gets more complex when you're growing a business alongside parenting ☑️ Getting support isn't one-size-fits-all, and it's necessary for every life stage "I want to spend time with my kids in the few hours I get to see them during the work week and actually do fun stuff on the weekends. I don't want to be a slave to my home. I want to live my life." ☑️ Are you filling a void inside yourself, or are you investing in what's important to you? ☑️ Separating yourself from the things that need to get done, so you can outsource them ☑️ How buying back your time in small ways gives you your life and family back "We have a disconnect between the way that we are running our business and scaling a business and growing, managing, and delegating in our career and doing it in our household." ☑️ Why we're more concerned with managing a house manager than the investment ☑️ Feeling triggered by "not doing it all" isn't a reason to keep managing everything ☑️ Consolidating the support you need and how that actually saves you money *** About Kelly Hubbell: Kelly Hubbell is a mom of three, founder and CEO of Sage Haus — the only nationwide placement service dedicated exclusively to matching house managers with busy households.

  1272: Is It Your Partner or Your Inability to Be Radically Honest? 08.07.2026 1t

  "Both parties have to show up to the same conversation, and you have to do emotionally uncomfortable things in order to grow." In this episode, Heather and her husband, Bryan, explore what it really takes to build a strong partnership when life, health, finances, and everyday stress begin testing the foundation beneath it. Through an honest conversation about communication, leadership, emotional responsibility, and the challenges that arise when two people are growing together, they unpack the patterns that create distance in relationships and the intentional choices that rebuild trust and connection. Whether you're navigating health challenges, raising children, managing money, or simply trying to become better partners to one another, this episode offers a refreshing perspective on what it means to stop waiting for your relationship to improve and start becoming the kind of person who helps create the relationship you both want to come home to. What to listen for:☑️ Brian's breakdown to breakthrough moment that prompted him to prioritize his health ☑️ How health issues affect communication, connection, and the quality of relationships ☑️ Why not seeing the results you expect can leave you feeling broken inside   "As a man or a 'leader,' part of leading is sharing what you're going through and exposing others to how you deal with these things."☑️ Why being direct and not having covert contracts creates a calm household ☑️ How having a parent-in-law living in your home can affect your partnership ☑️ 'Nice Guy Syndrome' and how it becomes detrimental to everything   "It's almost like your person becomes your emotional center and everything that the guy does is calculated to obtain approval from that person, trying so hard to please the person and often becoming resentful when it's not reciprocated." ☑️ Why men can become avoidant when dealing with uncomfortable conversations ☑️ Taking ownership of your side of the street during difficult partnership moments ☑️ Why it's essential to have regular money conversations in your marriage   "It's only going to get harder the more we avoid it. Money is one of the biggest factors in a healthy, happy marriage because if you don't have your money shit together, it can really really mess up your dynamic." ☑️ The harmony created between the visionary and integrator partnership as a couple ☑️ Prioritizing actions that make your partner's life easier and less stressful ☑️ Finding really low-hanging fruit opportunities to create a connection *** For those of you who are ready to stop feeling drained, overextended, and out of alignment… join me inside the Energetic Time Management Accelerator, a focused experience designed to help high-achieving women uncover what's draining them, clarify what truly matters, and create a simple plan that fits their life.

  1271: Why Executive Functioning Matters More Than Grades With Mike McLeod 01.07.2026 46min

  "The only way to build executive functions is through relationships and experiences. Not worksheets, not lectures, not in the classroom." In this episode, Heather and Mike McLeod dive into the growing conversation around ADHD, executive functioning, screen dependency, and the alarming reality of the youth mental health crisis unfolding right in front of us. This conversation challenges many of the narratives parents have been taught to accept about attention, behavior, motivation, and what children actually need to thrive. From the normalization of excessive screen use after COVID to the rise of social media pseudoscience and over-accommodation, this episode unpacks the deeper reasons so many kids are struggling with focus, emotional regulation, confidence, and failure to launch into adulthood. What to listen for: ☑️ Why ADHD has become more prominent in conversations about our children ☑️ Boredom is like going to the gym for your brain, and it's crucial to childhood "All of the things that are so crucial to developing a strong, healthy child and adolescent brain, we as the adults have kind of stolen from them. This is why we're in the middle of a horrible youth mental health crisis." ☑️ The reason this younger generation is falling behind and failing to advance like others ☑️ You build executive functions through relationships and experiences, not classwork "Executive functioning skills are the greatest predictor of success, and it's one of the most misunderstood sets of skills. Time management and organization is the smallest possible fraction of executive functions." ☑️ The four pillars of executive functioning skills for independence, positivity, and success ☑️ ADHD isn't actually an attention disorder; it's an executive functioning disorder "This generation of youth has gotten the most therapy, the most socio-emotional classes, and they're the most depressed because we're treating them with kid gloves and constantly lowering the bar." ☑️ What struggling with screen-time boundaries is telling you about your child's state ☑️ Doing less as a parent to help your child through their failure to launch *** About Mike McLeod: In 2016, Michael created the Internal Skills Executive Function Strengthening Model, and GrowNOW ADHD was born.His mission: improve quality of life for youth and families facing ADHD and executive function challenges. Mike has presented this model to audiences nationwide and internationally, providing specialized support in ADHD, Executive Functioning, Social Executive Functioning, and Parent Coaching.

  1270: When Therapy Turns Into Avoidance 24.06.2026 31min

  "There comes a time and a place when you're over intellectualizing, and you are actually trying to dig for problems. It's a self-fulfilling prophecy." In this episode, Heather explores the uncomfortable space between knowing something needs to change and actually being willing to change it. For high-performing women, that gap is often filled with overthinking, fixing, researching, controlling, and searching for the "right" answer instead of taking the actions that will move them forward. This conversation is an invitation to stop waiting for the perfect plan, the perfect feeling, or the perfect timing and start moving. Because growth, freedom, and alignment are rarely found inside your comfort zone (which is what therapy tends to become), they're uncovered once you're willing to face the discomfort of uncertainty, make the decisions you've been avoiding, and start trusting yourself enough to discover who you'll become on the other side. What to listen for:☑️ Why high-performing women try to patch and control when things go wrong ☑️ To get to the other side of newness, you're going to have to try something new ☑️ Your brain is wired to keep you alive, but not necessarily to help you thrive "This loneliness that you feel is because you are living a freedom-based life, and you're doing what's required to live financially in alignment with how you want to feel. And when you do that, it gets really uncomfortable because you begin to think differently." ☑️ Losing trust in yourself because you never had true self-trust to begin with ☑️ We create codependency through scarcity so that we don't have to feel ☑️ The reason why you can't see how much you're living from fear "Reading another parenting book, sending your child to therapy, or going to therapy is your comfort zone. You have to be ready to get emotionally uncomfortable. You have to be ready to go through the storm." ☑️ Differing outcomes require being held accountable for taking different actions ☑️ What actions do you need to take consistently based on your current goals? ☑️ How to know whether you're making the right decision for your life "If you don't move, something is going to explode in your life. But when energy is in motion and energy flows, it's healthy. It's vibrant and healing. So just get moving and take action." ☑️ How the unmade decisions inside of you are keeping you stagnant ☑️ Getting to that point where you can make a difficult decision with more ease ☑️ There's a time and a place for therapy, as well as for coaching *** For those of you who are ready to stop feeling drained, overextended, and out of alignment… join me inside the Energetic Time Management Accelerator, a focused experience designed to help high-achieving women uncover what's draining them, clarify what truly matters, and create a simple plan that fits their life.

  1269: The Resistance Between You and the Life You Desire With Renée Warren 17.06.2026 31min

  "The more you face these moments of resistance, the easier it gets because you know what to expect of yourself on the other side of it." In this episode, Heather and Renée Warren dive into the uncomfortable reality that, whether you're building a business, growing a personal brand, redefining yourself beyond motherhood, or pursuing a more aligned life, there comes a point where you have to decide whether you're willing to keep moving forward when the excitement fades and resistance takes over. Renée dives into the patterns that cause so many women to lose momentum when seasons change, why waiting for life to get easier keeps you stuck, and the identity shifts that occur when you stop defining yourself solely by what you do for others. This conversation is an invitation to lean into the discomfort of becoming, to trust yourself through the messy middle, and to recognize that every time you move through resistance rather than retreat from it, you build capacity. What to listen for: ☑️ Why you shouldn't throw your habits out the window just because it's summer ☑️ The biggest lesson is building the muscle and being okay when things are ugly ☑️ Navigating the relationship shedding that comes with rising above mediocrity "Summer shows up, and we come up with all these excuses as to why we should take a break or slow down. When you're trying to grow a personal brand, when you're trying to do something differently, there's no place where you can slow the momentum." ☑️ What happens when you remove yourself from what makes you a 'good' mother ☑️ Getting through the resistance that bubbles up when you start using your voice ☑️ How to feel worthy of what you desire without self-sabotaging it "When we start silencing those voices and actually dipping into the things that we want, where we want to go, businesses we want to start, who we want to surround ourselves with, it's like you open up the next abundance portal." ☑️ Why it's so important to surround yourself with people who believe in you ☑️ Putting yourself in the energy of where you want to be and doing things differently ☑️ The invisible pattern of all or nothing and "life will get easier when" changes nothing *** About Renée Warren: Renée Warren is an award-winning entrepreneur, angel investor, author, and the host of the top-rated podcast Into The Wild, which empowers women to grow the fearlessness needed to step into their greatness.

  1268: A Fed Soul Raises Motivated, Independent Adults 10.06.2026 46min

  "If you're not willing to fail, you won't have the emotional capacity to watch your children fail."   In this episode, Heather digs into the very uncomfortable reality that many women are overmothering, overnurturing, and overcompensating in ways that steal their children's ability to become motivated and productive adults. This conversation dives into the delicate balance between nurturing and enabling, guiding and rescuing, and the courage it takes to hold your boundaries when every impulse tells you to step in. At its heart, this episode is about alignment, not as a nice idea, but as a daily practice of telling the truth, trusting yourself, and feeding your own soul so you can show up as a whole, inspired adult. Because when you stop overcompensating, overproducing, and overmothering, you create space for your children to develop the resilience, motivation, and independence they're supposed to build for themselves.   What to listen for: ☑️ The game of alignment means opening whatever door you're currently resisting ☑️ Navigating the fear that your child won't become a productive member of society ☑️ Why, if you're not holding boundaries, your life often becomes absolute chaos   "I guarantee you have been overmothering, overnurturing, and overcompensating to avoid feeling something. And that overproducing is taking away from your children's ability to be motivated." ☑️ How your body does what's needed to help your create balance and alignment ☑️ If you're always rescuing your children, they can't learn to take care of themselves ☑️ When you feel whole, you're not dependent on anyone else to give you value   "It takes so much discernment, self-trust, and inner guidance to know when to literally go in and rescue and guide them, versus when you need to back off and hold a boundary." ☑️ Stop doing things from a place of task management rather than soul alignment ☑️ Learning to feed your soul allows you to learn the lessons your children need ☑️ Why we overcompensate when we realize we can't rescue other people   "This is the beauty of women. We are so strong, so nurturing. But the kryptonite of that is we can take away from other people gaining independence, and they become too codependent or interdependent." ☑️ Your kids aren't growing up to be lazy; you've just been doing too much for them ☑️ Who are you if your kids are independent enough not to need you as much? ☑️ When you feed your soul, you become a motivated, inspired, alive adult *** For those of you who are ready to stop feeling drained, overextended, and out of alignment… join me inside the Energetic Time Management Accelerator, a focused experience designed to help high-achieving women uncover what's draining them, clarify what truly matters, and create a simple plan that fits their life.

  1267: The Hidden Habits Disrupting Your Sleep and Hormones With Ciara Foy 03.06.2026 1t

  "When you put the time and effort into your sleep, it really does pay a massive ROI in your life." In this episode, Heather and Ciara Foy unpack the physical, hormonal, and emotional shifts that leave so many middle-aged women anxious, burned out, unable to sleep, and disconnected from themselves and their lives. This conversation goes far beyond sleep hygiene and hormones, exploring the deeper patterns of self-sacrifice, stress, over-functioning, and depletion that determine women's health. We talk about why sleep becomes more difficult during this stage of life, how cortisol, insulin resistance, and nervous system dysregulation work together, and the small but powerful changes that can radically improve your energy and mood. Most importantly, this episode is an invitation to stop abandoning yourself in the process of caring for everyone else and start recognizing that feeling good, rested, and supported is essential. What to listen for: ☑️ Why middle-aged women become insulin resistant, and how that affects sleep ☑️ The many changes in hormones that lead to higher anxiety and difficulty sleeping ☑️ How do you contribute to your stress by self-sacrificing and not letting things go? "If you don't get radically honest with yourself, I don't know if your body will stick around. You have to fight to feel worthy of feeling good right now." ☑️ The way you treat yourself and your health is what you model to your children ☑️ Focusing on sleep during highly stressful times will help you avoid burnout ☑️ Sleep hygiene tips that most women don't know how to implement "Good sleep starts in the morning. If you get up and immediately pick up your phone, you're disrupting your sleep. You need to make a commitment, even if it's 20 minutes, that you don't immediately get on your phone." ☑️ Why morning sunlight is crucial to your hormones and circadian rhythm ☑️ Managing your insulin and hormones by not intermittent fasting or eating after 7 pm ☑️ If you get your second wind at night, you're going to have higher cortisol levels "The most important thing is just to start doing something. Pick something that you can focus on and execute from and make sure that you're just following through with that one promise that you're keeping for yourself." ☑️ What needs to happen to motivate yourself to implement these changes ☑️ The invisible value of hiring someone to help you mentally carry the load ☑️ Slight pivots add up and start moving you in a completely different direction **** About Ciara Foy: Ciara Foy is a hormone and metabolic health expert with 20 years of clinical experience helping women over 40 resolve the root causes of stubborn weight, fatigue, brain fog, and burnout.

  1266: Your Teen Is Not Being Difficult; They're Being Honest 27.05.2026 34min

  "If a child is being difficult, they're showing you their honest parts. They're showing you the parts of themselves that are struggling."   In this episode, Heather explores the friction that comes from holding responsibility for yourself and others while learning to stop controlling what was never yours to carry in the first place. This conversation moves through grief, fear, honesty, emotional regulation, and the uncomfortable but necessary work of recognizing where your children are reflecting back the very things you avoid within yourself. She talks about what it means to truly hold space for another human being without making their experience about your own discomfort, why presence matters more than performance or fixing, and how the relationships we build with our children are shaped in the smallest moments of connection and honesty. If you've been navigating change, questioning old ways of parenting or leading, or realizing that your (and your child's) emotional reactions are asking something deeper of you, this episode is an invitation to soften control, tell yourself the truth, and become a steadier guide for both your children and yourself. What to listen for: ☑️ Pulling back the curtain and giving a tiny look into my content creation process ☑️ The reason why you carry a lot of responsibility is because that's what leaders do ☑️ If you were honest, what would you finally be willing to admit to yourself? "Your child isn't intentionally trying to be difficult. They are being honest. And here you are, not being honest and trying to push and control their behavior." ☑️ A lot of fear comes right before the breakthrough, but that doesn't mean it's wrong ☑️ Navigating the unexpected loss and grief that comes with family and life transitions ☑️ The relationship you build while your kids are home determines whether they return "As a parent, there's a time and a place where you have to just get to this neutral place around, that's not my shit to figure out. They are souls having a human experience, and I am just here to walk beside them." ☑️ Holding space for your children's journeys while also holding space for yourself ☑️ What you learn as you hold space for experiences you never expected to walk through ☑️ Your kids don't need you to find external solutions; they need you to be present "What if after a tantrum, instead of being so angry and resentful and unregulated, you gave them a kiss on the forehead, and you said, 'Thank you for being honest'?" ☑️ We don't read verbal communication because people lie verbally, not in their actions ☑️ You signed up for a lifetime of being a guide to another human, so show up for it ☑️ Your emotional discomfort is not your child's to carry; it's your work to do *** For those of you who are ready to stop feeling drained, overextended, and out of alignment… join me inside the Energetic Time Management Accelerator, a focused experience designed to help high-achieving women uncover what's draining them, clarify what truly matters, and create a simple plan that fits their life.

  1265: The Body Keeps Score and Sets Boundaries With Laura Wieck 20.05.2026 42min

  "Embodiment is the wisdom that comes through from the state you're in." In this episode, Heather and Laura Wieck explore what it really means to live embodied, not as another perfectionist performance, but as a practice of honesty, presence, and listening to the wisdom already alive inside you. Through the lens of parenting a child with autism and the unraveling of old identities, this conversation opens up a powerful dialogue around the ways our bodies hold emotion, where we disconnect from ourselves in the name of 'coping', and how healing often begins with simply noticing what's true without rushing to fix it. This episode is an invitation to soften the performance, reconnect with your internal guidance, and create a way of being that feels alive from the inside out. What to listen for: ☑️ Sitting with uncomfortable emotions and seeing them as the data they are ☑️ How an autism diagnosis taught Laura more about embodied communication "So many women, especially if you're coming from perfectionism or people-pleasing, think, 'If I can get this idea of embodiment right, everything else will just fall into place.' But physiologically speaking, it actually goes the opposite way." ☑️ Our bodies store emotions in our fascia, and how to identify stuck energy ☑️ The power of embodiment is tuning into the wisdom that's already present ☑️ Understanding the three brains in our body that determine alignment "Embodiment starts with noticing the sensations that are present in your body. And the key here is to notice it without the label." ☑️ Two questions you can ask yourself to stop internalizing other people's rules ☑️ Staying connected to your body so that you can hear its wisdom and guidance ☑️ How to get back into alignment while still honoring your children's needs "The more moments you create with yourself to go there, the more you deeply trust your journey of being human and not performing your way through motherhood and life and your career." ☑️ Navigating the difficulty and emotional toll that comes with getting what you want ☑️ What our children teach us and how the body keeps the score to hold healing boundaries **** About Laura Wieck: As the Founder of BodyMind Coaching, Laura has integrated coaching with embodiment practices to help individuals reconnect with their inner wisdom and achieve holistic well-being.

  1264: The Day My Calendar Stopped Working: Raising a Neurodivergent Kid When You're Used to Winning 13.05.2026 24min

  "No productivity hack, no energetic management tips or tricks are going to be able to solve an identity collapse." In this episode, Heather dives into the thing high-performing women are actually afraid to say out loud: the very traits that made them successful, performance, optimization, control, fixing, and achieving, are the exact traits that make them "worse" mothers to a neurodivergent child. And watching their playbook fail in real time triggers an identity collapse that no productivity hack or "energy management" tip can solve. The truth is, you can't outperform autism. You can't out-discipline ADHD or out-schedule a kid who can't transition. And when high-performing women realize this, they spiral, because they don't know who they are without their results. This episode takes an honest look at what it means to mother in a way that requires presence over performance, connection over control, and a willingness to meet yourself in the discomfort instead of trying to think your way out of it. What to listen for: ☑️ Raising neurodivergent or uniquely wired children and how it affect us as mothers ☑️ The traits that have made you successful don't work with neurodivergent children ☑️ When you are in a state of transition, you're going to be triggered on a primal level "As you're taking that action, as you're becoming the buffalo, as you're leaning in and pushing through your shit, it's so emotionally uncomfortable that you get to a point where your whole identity collapses because you've finally been able to see that you're living a lie." ☑️ What happens when your "high-performer" identity is shaken by your children ☑️ Navigating the cultural and internal expectations of who you're supposed to be ☑️ Why the primal instinct of motherhood is both a blessing and a curse "Parenting and nurturing our children is not about doing for our children. Your job, especially as a high performer, is to operate at your max capacity." ☑️ Why you can't schedule connection with your children, nor should you want to ☑️ Feeding your desires and "wouldn't it be nice if" list so you don't feel dead inside ☑️ You can't solve an energy problem from the neck up or by prioritizing logic "If you don't know how to feed your soul, how are you ever going to feel a sense of purpose and fulfillment and wholeness and joy and ease even in the midst of chaos?"  ☑️ How Heather navigates reinvention and flexing new muscles in her life and work ☑️ Why it's not your job to fix or perform for your neurodivergent children, and what is ☑️ The more present you are, the more capacity you have, the more connected you feel *** For those of you who are ready to stop feeling drained, overextended, and out of alignment… join me inside the Energetic Time Management Accelerator, a focused experience designed to help high-achieving women uncover what's draining them, clarify what truly matters, and create a simple plan that fits their life.

In this Case Study episode, Heather and Tara Morse dig into how she built her practice by following a path that didn't always make sense to others and navigating skepticism while staying anchored in what she knew was right for her. This conversation moves beyond surface-level change and into the real work: learning to shift from rumination into self-awareness, choosing how you want to feel, and taking action from that place, and developing the kind of self-trust that can only come from doing hard things on purpose. Because at the end of the day, growth shows up in the uncomfortable moments where you're asked to trust yourself before you feel ready, and you can't outsource feeling whole. What to listen for: ☑️ Why moving from rumination into self-awareness is essential for change ☑️ One of the first big hurdles in growth is having enough self-trust to get support ☑️ The importance of understanding where we are to understand where to go next "A lot of that is honestly getting to that point where you're expanding, then you're uncomfortable, and then you have this felt experience of, 'I did it.' If we don't challenge ourselves, make ourselves uncomfortable, and put ourselves in those situations, there's no self-trust." ☑️ In order to have that felt experience of self-trust, you have to challenge yourself ☑️ Why hard skills are cheap and emotional intelligence and soft skills matter most ☑️ We can't outsource feeling whole, and no technology is going to change that "It's always going to be the small actions. I had to let myself feel what I was feeling. I knew that was part of it. But then I had to make a choice that I didn't want to feel this way anymore. So part of that action was taking the step, reaching out for help." ☑️ The work isn't waiting for motivation; it's embodying discipline in necessary ways ☑️ The only thing that creates transformation is boundaries that you hold with yourself ☑️ How increasing your capacity can increase your sense of lightness at the same time *** About Tara Morse: Tara Morse is a licensed therapist, entrepreneur, and the founder of 3Rivers Therapists, a multi-location mental health practice serving children, adolescents, and adults across Pennsylvania.
