In hindsight, Edie can see the warning signs leading up to her heart attack. But in the moment, the self-described workaholic finished her drive home, called work to cancel clients, and only then headed to the hospital.

At 55, despite exercising regularly, Edie survived heart attack that forced her to confront the cost of chronic stress, sleep deprivation, and unrelenting responsibility.

In this episode, Edie shares what recovery really looked like—physically, emotionally, and psychologically—and how learning to rest, set boundaries, and accept support quite literally changed (and saved) her life.

Her story is one of resilience, reckoning, and redefining what it means to take care of yourself, especially for women who are used to carrying everything.
