In this episode, Heather discusses the intersection of parenting and spirituality, focusing on the importance of understanding children's emotions, particularly anxiety related to sports and societal expectations.

She shares personal experiences with her daughter Avery, emphasizing the need for open communication and empowering children to make their own decisions.

The conversation highlights the significance of listening to children's needs and the impact of societal pressures on their mental health.

In this conversation, Heather talks about how a rib injury became an entry point into real emotional healing.

The pain forced her to slow down and pay attention. She began breathing into the discomfort, turning inward and asking simple questions about what her body needed. As she stayed with the sensations, old memories and emotions surfaced. Each one asked to be seen and released.

Heather walks you through how this unfolded and how you can use the same approach in your own life. You hear what she asked, what came up and how her body guided her step by step.

Summary

In this episode, I explore the interconnectedness of healing, parenting, and personal growth. I emphasize the importance of being present and intentional in our lives, especially when interacting with children. 

Later I discuss the challenges of navigating relationships during personal transformation and the significance of self-reflection and setting boundaries. 

My goal of this episode is to encourage listeners to embrace change, integrate their inner child, and prioritize their peace and well-being.

Death is something that plagues all walks of life. It is something we will all face at some point and yet it's not something that gets a lot of "air" time. I guess is because we all have our own ideas about it and we don't want to make anyone uncomfortable so we stay silent on the subject. However, what if we did start sharing our thoughts and views more often? Would we reduce some fear around it?

I came across the nonprofit organization INELDA International End-Of-Life Doula Association from the back of a book I was reading. I became very interested in this organization and wanted to know what exactly an end-of-life doula was. After some email exchanges, I was put in touch with Nicole Heidbreder.

In this podcast, Nicole explained a life pattern that seemed to be following her into her calling of becoming an end-of-life doula. Her personal story is very insightful and interesting. Not only is Nicole an end-of-life doula but she is also a birth doula. She gets to witness life in both of its extremes, life, and death. She goes deep into explaining exactly what an end-of-life doula is and how it differs from hospice care, who can benefit from their care, how to become a doula through INELDA, and then how to start networking. I strongly urge you to listen to this podcast to gain a little more perspective on the end-of-life topic.

Nicole was able to eloquently explain her thoughts on the end of life and the closeness she gains with the families she works with. By presenting her career path she truly is "changing the face of dying."

To find a doula near you or if you would like to take part in their training program to become a doula you can visit them on the web at  inelda.org .

You can find Nicole on the INELDA website or follow her on Instagram @gracefulfusionofbirthanddeath.

This week I brought back my bestie, Melanie Esperon, from  Reikiroomsandiego.com . I absolutely love having her on because her energy is SO fun and she is very wise...a great combo for sure! This episode is all about taking back your sovereignty (the ability to choose the direction of one's own life, and being the exclusive authority over one's own body and mind...aka...freedom).

Mel and I discuss times in our lives when we knew there was no other option than to take back our power. It is so easy to fall pray to others' opinions, different agencies ( government, education, medical system, social media etc) and push our own thoughts to the side to be agreeable. Once you know what to look out for or what feelings come up for you, it is easier to recognize.

We also go over ways to start to take your power back and claim your life. It won't happen overnight but implementing some of these steps a little at a time can make quite a change. Some examples are:

-Balancing the masculine and feminine or right and left brain

-Being able to accept failure-learning resilience 

-Stop blaming others

-Recognizing the way you see the world isn't how the world really is

-Dive into something that feels uncomfortable without judgement 

-Start listening to your thoughts

Of course we go into much more detail about these suggestions to explain how you can integrate them into your life. If you'd like to follow Mel on IG (and I highly recommend you do❤️) you can do so by searching @reikiroomsd.

I had such an insightful conversation with Steven Noack ( trinityquantumheath.com ) a few weeks ago I absolutely had to have him on the podcast again to go a little deeper...so deeper we went! 

After having his NDE when he was a child, Steven spent a good amount of time trying to block out all the information he learned when he was unconscious. When he became an adult he realized he couldn't continue to "forget" what he knew down in his soul.

In this podcast we talk a lot about topics that aren't often discussed in the mainstream today. We talk about the quantum field, vibrations, energy, and so much more. If these are all new concepts to you I encourage you to listen and start to become curious. It's all a very fascinating rabbit hole to go down.😃

This week I did another solo podcast. I kept getting "downloads" around helping others take back more of their power so they could feel more balanced and calm. In this podcast, I share a few ideas and tricks I have collected over the years to help me stay aligned and in flow. You will learn four different ideas that I explain in great detail throughout the podcast. I will talk about:

-The zoom-out method

-Becoming your own paleontologist (Sounds funny but I explain this during the podcast)

-Talk to yourself like you would a child

- 'Peace begins with you' method

These are seemingly simple ideas. When you listen to the podcast you will think '...oh yeah, I can do that' but once the podcast is over, the work has to be done. You have to put the methods into effect to reap the benefits. One day at a time, one reminder at a time. If you stick with it you will be stunned by the power you gain over your life.

This week's podcast is a solo episode with...wait for it...YOURS TRULY. I watched a video recently with thought leader Caroline Myss. I also read one of her books years ago called Anatomy Of The Spirit. After watching the video (and thinking back to her book) I realized I'd been right to think that 'deep knowing' was real because I always knew there was a correlation between our emotions and physical body. I highly recommend reading Caroline's book.

The video I watched by Caroline was about ways we lose our power (energy) throughout our day. This is a topic I have thought about many times and even did blog posts regarding this loss of power. Finally, after watching this video I decided to sit down and do some of her recommendations which I have listed below. 

There were three main questions I asked myself and I encourage you to do the same.

What are 3 to 5 addictions you have? We all have them, they may not be the typical ones you think of like alcohol or drugs but more things like attention, the need to be right, worrying, etc. Once you identify your addictions go deeper and ask why you are addicted to them. What are you getting out of them?

What are your cravings (3 to 5)? What stories have you been telling yourself and others that keep dragging you down but you tell them anyway, and why do you tell them?

What do you feel entitled to (3 to 5)? This list got interesting for me (ha ha). If you feel entitled to fairness, for example, then go deeper and find out who you think you should get that fairness from? Are there specific people or group of people?

I went down a YouTube rabbit hole recently and I came across a video about a man named Steve Noack and his near-death experience. His story intrigued me so much that I emailed him right away! I knew his story could change so many people's views about what comes after death.

Steve is a psychic and zero-point quantum energy practitioner. A Quantum Healer has the ability to create a high frequency of life-force energy and then use that energy to place a field of high energy around an area of pain, stress, inflammation, or disease. This process is understood to amplify the body’s natural healing ability.

My conversation with Steve is one you DO NOT want to miss. He is full of so many useful insights and ways of creating peace in your life. I encourage you to learn more about Steve by checking out his website  trinityquantumhealth.com .

Our thoughts and beliefs create our reality. What happens when our thought patterns are old and outdated and no longer serve us? Theta Healer Selen Aktar explains how connecting with the theta brainwave allows a person to re-write the outdated story to something more positive with her facilitation. This work has the ability to create very quick and efficient results. The client has full control over the process and the change only happens when they allow it. Selen works from a place of love and light and it shines through the entire podcast. She is so knowledgeable and has such a passion to help the wellbeing of others. You can find Selen on her website selenaktar.com as well as on IG (@selen.o.aktar) and FB. 

This week I am posting my newest podcast with the wonderful Gungor Buzot! She is a woman who has lived many lives and it was an extreme pleasure to be able to talk one on one with her. Her story is one of struggle but she ultimately found a way to her happiness. She'd been unwell essentially her entire life and by the time she was 61, she'd had 20 different surgeries in an attempt to 'heal' her. After the last unsuccessful surgery she felt she had endured enough and wanted to end the suffering. Gungor tried to convince her two grown children that euthanizing her was the only logical alternative but, thankfully, she was wrong!

This podcast will give you the exact steps she took to find another way. Here's a hint...she was introduced to the amazing Betsey Beaven from last week's podcast and, as they say, the rest is history.

Homeopathy is the second most used medical system in the world and yet I knew nothing about it. Homeopathy is much more prevalent in other countries but is starting to make a comeback here in the United States. In this podcast, you will hear the history, benefits (ZERO side effects being one of the biggest!), and real success stories of this powerful medical system. Betsey Beaven is beyond educated in the field and explains her 30+ years of experience to the listener. Take some time to expand your mind and learn a new safe and effective medical practice by listening to this podcast today!

When I think of wellness there are so many components that come to mind. One major part of wellness is reflecting. We can reflect on how we handled a situation, reflect on a week that went by or, in this case, a full year. One powerful way to reflect is through journal writing. Simply write a prompt at the top of your paper and let your hand do the rest. Below are some journal prompts I used that I found on Instagram (Google 'journal prompts' and you'll find TONS!). 

What was my theme of this past year?

What are some lessons I learned?

How did I surprise myself by how I showed up to the challenges life presented?

What am I most proud of?

What am I ready to let go of?

What is my intention moving forward for 2023?

Listen to my latest podcast, entitled 'My Reflections from 2022', and hopefully it will inspire you to start writing today!

In this episode of Another Way For Them Podcast, I chatted with my good friend, computer guru, Danielle Hendrickson. The purpose of the chat was to explain how and why I did this rebranding. What we ended up talking about, which usually happens when we talk, was so much deeper.

We explored the journey of personal growth, authenticity, and the challenges of merging different aspects of life. We discussed the importance of self-love, breaking free from societal expectations, and the power of community support. The conversation emphasizes the significance of trusting the process of change and the necessity of showing up for oneself in the journey of life.

Another great podcast this week! I got to chat with my dear friend Melanie Esperon again from Reiki Room San Diego. While taking an online class it occurred to me that so many people don't take a chance on themselves because they want to conserve money but, ironically, the thing they wont purchase could make all the difference in their mindset. In that moment I knew I had to do a podcast on the energetics of money and I knew exactly who my guest should be. Melanie gives tons of examples regarding the scarcity mindset she grew up with and how far she has come. She gives tangible examples of how to make this mind shift and understanding that we are all worthy of a great life. Even if you have a lot of abundance, this podcast is still beneficial to hear because abundance is limitless. There are always new ways of looking at and thinking of energy. This is a podcast you will not want to miss.  

I had the privilege to chat with Victoria and Tiffany of the Spirit Mamas! Their infectiously fun and warm personalities made for a wonderful conversation. We talked all about the importance of community, healing the mother wound, and why we need to clear space of things that no longer serve us in order to make room for new loving thoughts and practices. Take some time to listen to this engaging conversation and learn why the Spirit Mamas are such a high-vibration duo.

I had the privilege to have a very open and real conversation with Kevin Hines! In an attempt to take his own life, Kevin jumped off the Golden Gate Bridge one fateful day in 2000. By the grace of God his life was saved and he has spent the last two decades going around the world speaking to countless people explaining why they should always choose life. Through this experience he has become a keynote speaker, award winning filmmaker, best selling author and host to his own podcast. He and his team are saving lives and educating so many every single day. This is a powerful podcast, one that I hope you will share with anyone you think might be going through a tough period in their life because there is always hope! 

The topic of spirituality has been gaining momentum for quite some time. So many conversations have been had on different spiritual journies, how people are awakening, and the light and breezy side of going inward. In this episode, Melanie and I discuss some of the not-so-popular and heavier aspects of spirituality. This is not to deter anyone from embarking on their spiritual path but to give a full picture of the work ahead. Each layer that has been exposed makes future work more manageable. This episode goes deep and you will NOT want to miss it!

In this podcast I sit down with Rick Fish, who not only is a serial entrepreneur but also happens to also be my father. We discuss what led him down the road to becoming an entrepreneur and why he never looked back. Our career is such a huge part of our wellness which is why having this insightful conversation was so important. If you're feeling like starting your own business or you just want to hear the story of how one man created several successful business then this podcast is for you.

Are you looking to understand yourself and the world around you better? If so, this podcast is definitely for you. I sat down with the talented Dawn Daggs from The Purple Door (www.purpledoorsoulsource.com) who has been practicing numerology for many years as well as other mystical practices. She helped me truly understand how this ancient practice can be the key to understanding the person you are today as well as those around you. Dawn's fun personality shines through to make this podcast not only informative but super entertaining as well.

If you are curious about what acupuncture is and what it can do for you then this episode is for you! Lauren Kelly from Geneseo Acupuncture helps the listener understand everything from what a typical session looks like to how long this ancient practice has been around.  This podcast is full of great information so sit back, relax and enjoy!  

If you are looking to understand and embrace a new healing tool then this podcast is for you! Tara Schulenberg, from Elevate the Globe, and I talked all about her journey with Kundalini yoga which lead her into the business she runs with her partner, Britt Deanda. Together they have created many offerings to help inspire and strengthen the lives of thousands. Tara talks in-depth about where Elevate the Globe is going next, which includes an app for anyone to gain access to their knowledgeable teachings.

This week's podcast is super interesting because I had the pleasure of meeting with a very talented therapist who specializes in hypnotherapy and many other healing modalities. His name is Erick French, MSW, LCSW of One Awareness Counseling and Therapy. However, what I found so fascinating about Erick was how he incorporates the mind-body connection as well as spirituality into his healing sessions!

I am so pleased to be sending out this new podcast featuring Jamuna Rosner (@jamunarosner)! I had a very insightful conversation with Jamuna where we talked about what led her to become a trauma-informed coach and eventually create her program, Transcend. Jamuna started her work over ten years ago by supporting women dealing with addiction and codependency and has since grown into coaching other coaches, entrepreneurs, and industry leaders through their own traumas to create massive breakthroughs.

One of my favorite parts of the conversation was breaking down what exactly trauma is and how we all can take steps to help release it. We talked about inner-child work and how everyone could benefit from a closer look into their past.

This week’s podcast episode:

Summary

 In this episode of Wellness Matters, I talk about the themes of rejection, self-love, and personal growth. I then discuss the importance of merging identities, understanding feelings of isolation, and the power of mindset shifts. 

 I emphasize the significance of reparenting oneself and meeting past traumas with compassion. The episode concludes with a call to take ownership of one's life and choices, encouraging listeners to embrace their journey of healing and self-discovery.

I am So excited to post this insightful podcast with wellness educator, Lauren Roxburgh! She is changing the face of wellness and body movement with each video she makes. She integrates the mind and body components to help each person find the wholeness journey they are actually searching for. Listen to her many insights as well as all her up and coming additions to The Aligned Life Studio.

In this episode of The Wellness Matters Podcast, Ashley Hamilton and I explore the evolving definition of success, particularly in the context of education and parenting. We discuss the societal pressures surrounding college education and the traditional markers of success, such as wealth and status. Through personal anecdotes, we highlight the importance of kindness, personal growth, and the need to redefine success beyond material achievements. The conversation emphasizes the value of being present and embracing new paths, especially for the younger generation navigating their futures. 

 We go on to discuss the importance of personal growth, authenticity, and the impact of one's actions on others. The discussion highlights the significance of modeling success for future generations and the role of compassion and self-reflection in achieving a fulfilling life. Ultimately, we advocate for a redefined understanding of success that prioritizes emotional well-being and genuine connections over superficial achievements.

In this solo podcast episode, I talked all about the importance of feeling emotions fully as a means of healing and personal growth. I discussed the societal pressures that discourage emotional expression and offer practical advice on how to check in with yourself through body scans and self-reflection. 

I also explore the balance between masculine and feminine energies, the process of feeling emotions, and the significance of collecting the 'medicine' that comes from these experiences. I also encourage listeners to embrace all emotions, view them as opportunities for healing, and ultimately awaken to a more vibrant life. Happy listening!

My book: ​The Missing Piece​

In this episode of The Wellness Matters Podcast, Ashley Hamilton joined me once again to record our second episode in a series. We are breaking down old programming beliefs and finding ways to replace them with new ideas.

Last week's episode had to do with the school system. This week, however, we delved into the misconceptions surrounding parenting and the belief systems that have been passed down through generations. We discussed the importance of early childhood development, the challenges of discipline, and the significance of understanding emotions and communication in parenting. 

Ashley and I go kinda deep into the idea that just because the child is younger in years doesn't mean they don't understand our energy as adults. If we can take an extra minute to be intentional, meltdowns and arguments can be headed off.

Check out this episode for an insightful conversation to heal yourself and then also your connection with any child in your life.

This episode of The Wellness Matters Podcast was an interesting one. I had my friend Ashley Hamilton (a proud parent of twin three-year-olds) again. We have been talking privately for a while about programming we were 'sold' surrounding parenting as well as the education system. We finally felt like it was time to take it to the podcast. We thought, that if we felt this way, there must be others who do as well. 

Today's episode is the first episode in a series. We covered what we believe to be parts of education that are broken and then ideas to possibly fix them. We fully realize that we are just two opinions out of the many pertaining to the education system, but if we don't start having the hard discussions then how can any real change ever happen?

If you enjoy our discussion stay tuned for more in the series. We are looking to find all the holes in societal beliefs that might not be sitting well with many of you. Let us know if you agree:)

In this episode of The Wellness Matters Podcast, I talked with a very special guest, Susie Miller. She is an integration specialist, author, and so much more. Susie discusses her transformative experiences with children diagnosed with autism, particularly focusing on the concept of light bodies and telepathy. 

The conversation explores the integration of these light bodies with physical bodies, the unique perspectives of nonverbal children, and the impact of trauma on children's ability to communicate. 

Susie talks about some specific things that parents can do to help their children feel more regulated and calm. A huge part for children to feel regulated is having the parents do healing work on themselves. Our children are mirroring back to us where we are out of balance.

This conversation was a game changer. Our biggest teachers in life are children and it's beautiful to see how healing can be effective for all members of a family.

In this episode, Heather and Danielle explore the astrological energies influencing the end of 2025, focusing on the significance of the Venus cycle and the myth of Inanna.

They discuss personal transformations, the importance of self-exploration, and the power of sisterhood during challenging times.

The conversation emphasizes the need to embrace the darkness as a space for growth and healing, encouraging listeners to reflect on their own experiences and the stories they tell themselves.

Below are the Underworld Inquiry Questions Danielle shared for deeper reflection:

• What is asking to die within me so something more true can finally live?
• What have I been clinging to for safety or belonging that my soul is ready to lay down?
• What grief or story is ready to be honored, blessed, and returned to the earth?
• What sacred truth still lives beneath the ashes, waiting to be reclaimed?
• If I walk naked before the Great Below, what remains and what new light might be born there?

This week's podcast is Part 2 of last week's podcast

In this episode of The Wellness Matters Podcast, I had the chance to talk with my good friends, Erica Cordeiro and Kim Reed, about the importance of open conversations, building community, and the challenges of making friends as adults. We explore the desire for deeper connections, the exhaustion of surface-level interactions, and the significance of receiving compliments and acknowledging self-worth. 

Our trio also reflects on personal growth journeys and how focusing on self-work has led us to find our community. We also touch on the impact of the 'New Earth' on personal evolution and the changing dynamics of conversations in today's world. We delve into the concept of the 'New Earth' as an evolution of consciousness, emphasizing the shift from rigid thinking to a more feeling-based approach.

This episode was next level for me. Our conversation went from one topic to the next, which felt so seamless and easy. We talked for a LONG TIME so I decided to break it up into two episodes (part two coming next week). I hope you enjoy listening.

In this episode of The Wellness Matters Podcast, I talk all about a conversation I had with my daughter. During this conversation, I slowly started to realize that I have a tangible system I use to help myself and others through our triggers. 

My daughter who is a young teen was telling me about her day in high school and how it is becoming a pattern in her days. I discussed the importance of recognizing triggers, understanding the Hermetic principles, and engaging in inner child work to heal unresolved emotions.

I then emphasized that life is a continuous learning experience, where our external world reflects our internal state. By addressing these patterns and emotions, we can achieve a sense of wholeness and balance in our lives. Listen to this week's episode to hear practical steps to understanding your own hidden triggers.

In this episode of The Wellness Matters Podcast, Ashley Hamilton and I sat down again to review some results we uncovered from a challenge we came up with two weeks ago. We decided to experiment with being intentional with putting some new subconscious beliefs in our minds. By doing that we were/are hoping to manifest a few different things. 

We discussed our personal experiences with trying to implement new habits, the impact of childhood beliefs on adult behavior, and the challenges of integrating affirmations into our daily lives. The conversation also touches on the influence of social media, the concept of the Mandela Effect, and the importance of self-awareness and healing in personal growth. 

After the recap of our findings and the ways we plan to make adjustments, we then talked a little about my children's class that is coming up. The earlier we start to learn how to override old stories in our subconscious with new and better ones the easier our life will become.

In this episode of The Wellness Matters Podcast, I shared a personal story about a conversation I had with my son regarding the balance of masculine and feminine energies, particularly in the context of youth sports and coaching styles. I didn't know the conversation was going to go in that direction but it did. 

I ended up reflecting on the difference between the two student teaching placements I had when I was a senior in college. After my first placement, I thought I had wasted money and time for four years in college because I couldn't teach the way my placement teacher was teaching. She was very stuck in fear and toxic masculine energy (this was the connection I was making with my son and his coach). It wasn't until I had my second placement that I realized there was a different way of gaining the respect of the students. Not only could this 'new way' be used in teaching, but it could also be used in all aspects of my life. The teacher for my second placement (who is now my sister-in-law) showed me what balanced masculine and feminine energies looked like. 

We are often taught how to grip and "make things happen." I learned many years ago with the guidance of a wonderful mentor that not only is it okay but it's necessary to be vulnerable in front of others. I learned there is always another way to "get what we want." A way that doesn't deplete our energy tanks and keeps us vibing higher so we can radiate more joy into the world. I hope this podcast provides you with a great example of balance and understanding on how there is always another way.

My book: ​The Missing Piece​

In this episode of The Wellness Matters podcast, Ashley and I delve into the intricate dynamics between the subconscious and conscious mind, exploring how these two aspects of our psyche influence our thoughts, beliefs, and, ultimately, our reality. We discuss the importance of understanding the subconscious mind's role in healing, manifestation, and the impact of early programming from parents.

In the second half of the podcast we switched gears to talk about an experiement we wanted to try...a challenge if you will. Ashley and I are setting up a new story in our subconscious mind that is positive and setting us up for a better life. Ashley's new story is that her body is healthy. She has suffered from various health issues since she was a teen. I would like to create a story in my subconscious that whole heartedly KNOWS that all aspects of myself are now integrated. The shadow sides, the light sides, and everything in between so I can radiate my brightest life force energy.

If you are feeling called to join us on this challenge here are the criteria we have come up with:

Set up at least 7 alarms to go off on your phone throughout your day. This is used to be a pattern disruption through your day to help you come back to the conscious moment and repeat your new mantra.

Use your voice memos app and record about a 15 minute message repeating your new mantra. I created a few and just repeated them over and over. Listen to the 15 minute recording every night after you have wound down and are about to go to sleep. You want to get to the Theta brainwave which is how you create new stories in the subconscious mind.

We also decided to limit our social media intake and anything else that might be lower vibrational. We want to keep our frequency up as much as we can control during this challenge. We plan to create a follow up podcast in a couple weeks but know we might need to keep it going longer. To be continued...

My book: ​The Missing Piece​

In this episode of The Wellness Matters Podcast, I discuss the Hermetic Principles and their application in a new course designed for children aged 7 to 12 I will be teaching at the end of February. I came home from my niece's basketball game one day and thought to myself that children need more explanation of well-being. They need real examples of how when life gets uncomfortable that it's okay and how to recognize all the new ways they are being stretched and growing.

I also emphasize the importance of teaching emotional intelligence and the understanding of universal laws to help children navigate their feelings and experiences. Although I am talking about this children's course, it's still very benefical for the listener to hear this episode as I explain the Hermetic Principles in detail. This was such a fun episode to create.

In this episode of The Wellness Matters Podcast, I explore the concept of soul purpose and the journey of self-discovery, which emphasizes that finding one's purpose is not a linear path but rather a collection of experiences that shape who we are. I go on to talk about my journey, reflecting on my career in education and the lessons learned along the way. I encourage the listeners to embrace their current situations, find joy in small moments, and recognize that purpose can manifest in various forms beyond just career choices. Ultimately, I advocate for self-compassion and the importance of reflecting on our experiences to understand our unique paths.

Takeaways

Everyone has a soul purpose, but it's not just one thing.

The journey of finding purpose is more important than the destination.

Your experiences build upon each other to shape your purpose.

It's okay to not have everything figured out at a young age.
