  • 1285: What It Takes to Become Someone New With Coach Keren Eldad

    "The work is work, and the rattling of your cage comes with side effects, and you have to know that in advance before entering."

    In this episode, Heather and Coach Keren Eldad talk about what happens after the breakthrough: pushing against the edges of an old identity, recognizing the behaviors that accompany restlessness, and learning to move through resistance without taking it as a sign to stop. They explore what it means to reach "cruising altitude," where momentum starts carrying you forward, and you finally stop negotiating with the life you actually want. We also get into the difference between coaching and therapy, and why you don't have to wait for another shit storm to decide something needs to change. Ultimately, this conversation shows that the real work begins when insight becomes integration, and you practice thinking differently and repeatedly putting your money where your mouth is.

    What to listen for:

    ☑️ Most people need to do more work because insight is not integration

    ☑️ The best thing about hitting rock bottom is it forces you to face what happened

    ☑️ Specific behaviors always accompany restlessness, aimlessness, and loneliness

    "When you lose everything and end up at rock bottom, the best thing is there's nowhere to go. You have to start understanding: there's a level of thinking I've been engaged in that isn't serving me."

    ☑️ Don't wait for the shit storm to make change when you can start right now

    ☑️ The edge of identity and the importance of getting outside your comfort zone

    ☑️ You're going to have to put your money where your mouth is again and again

    "You don't jump out of the plane, launch the business, and all your problems are solved forever. Now you have to learn how to live this way, how to truly practice this level of thinking."

    ☑️ Your mindset has to dominate everything, but that doesn't mean forcing things

    ☑️ What it looks like to reach "cruising altitude," which is all about momentum

    ☑️ Reaching a state where you're simply not negotiating with life anymore

    "I really need to put my money where my mouth is means I accept nothing less than ease. I accept nothing less than my preferences. I will only work in my zone of genius."

    ☑️ Why changing identities causes pushback from the people around us

    ☑️ The difference between coaching and therapy, and when to consider each

    ☑️ Resistance comes up when we take action, but that doesn't mean stop

  • 1284: How to Stop Outsourcing Your Financial Future With Josh Smith

    "The best way you can help teach your kids is by modeling your own life, especially when it comes to money and investing."

    In this episode, Heather and Josh Smith get into the uncomfortable reality of what happens when you continue to outsource the financial part of your life, assuming someone else will handle it or believing you're simply "not a money person." They talk about the shame and scarcity that keep people from learning, why investing has been made far more complicated than it needs to be, and how small, consistent decisions can fundamentally change your financial future through the power of compound growth. They also explore what it means to become genuinely resourced, how financial literacy creates more choice and freedom, why knowing enough to ask better questions matters even when you work with a financial professional, and what we teach the next generation when we model these skills ourselves. Because becoming financially empowered requires being willing to learn some of the uncomfortable things you were never taught.

    What to listen for:

    ☑️ Building an investing system and getting money working harder for you

    ☑️ How health problems motivated Josh to start financially investing in himself

    ☑️ Stop staying stuck in indecision and outsourcing your money management

    "Maybe you won't have a yacht or a multimillion-dollar mansion, but at the very least, you can have a less stressful life. Which to me, that's more than worth any of the time you have to put into learning this stuff."

    ☑️ It's never too late to start securing a less financially stressful future for yourself

    ☑️ With investing, it's usually more worthwhile to take the "simple" approach

    ☑️ Financial planners have their role, but your understanding is crucial

    "When you understand investing, it's easier to be more aggressive when it comes to investing and hitting your financial goals a lot sooner."

    ☑️ Adulting isn't always fun, but you still need to take radical responsibility

    ☑️ The compound effect of time investment and how far it can take you

    ☑️ You just have to move through the resistance and get started

    About Josh Smith:

    I didn't grow up talking about money. No one in my family explained compound interest, index funds, or why investing matters. When I finally tried to get help thinking a financial advisor could guide me, they basically told me to come back when I'm rich.

    That was the moment I decided to figure it out myself. I spent 12+ years learning how business and money really work. I graduated with magna cum laude from W.P. Carey School of Business. Worked at JP Morgan Chase. And I've read over 100 personal finance and investing books.

    I now share everything I've learned through The Market Hustle. I've helped over 3,000 students build financial systems through Money Mastery and grew The Market Hustle community to over 1 million across social media.

  • 1283: What Happens When You Stop Asking for Permission to Live With Dr. Amanda Hanson

    "It's a fallacy that when a woman takes center stage in her life, everyone else suffers. No, everyone else expands."

    In this episode, Heather and Dr. Amanda Hanson dig into the moment when a woman begins to realize just how much of her life has been shaped by expectations, conditioning, caretaking, and the insidious belief that everyone else gets a say before she does. They explore what happens when you start deconstructing the ground you were planted in and questioning the influences behind the choices you've made, the relationships you've maintained, and the ways you've learned to perform being a "good" woman. This conversation moves through midlife, mortality, desire, authenticity, and the uncomfortable freedom of realizing you're allowed to want something different, even when the people around you don't understand it.

    What to listen for:

    ☑️ Why women struggle to believe that they actually get a say in their own lives

    ☑️ The fear of dying and how it shows up unconsciously for most women

    ☑️ Deconditioning from the influences that are driving your beliefs

    "Before I can help a woman build a new life for herself, I have to help her deconstruct the soil she was already planted in because otherwise we're actually just building a straw house on faulty ground."

    ☑️ Stop waiting for the "I'm ready" moment, and pay attention to your actions

    ☑️ Why our caretaking hormones tank in midlife, and how we lean into what's next

    ☑️ You can't really be known and loved if you're performing in your relationships

    "Women want more connection to themselves and to the people in their lives. They realize that the window is closing, and they want to know what it feels like to be raptured by life."

    ☑️ Choosing the most raw, authentic, unfiltered version of yourself in every area

    ☑️ Women can't be honest with others because they're not honest with themselves

    ☑️ Standing steady in the face of people who are uncomfortable with your expression

    "I'm not going to spend one millisecond wasting my life force energy and this precious gift I've been given trying to convince anybody to believe or think the way that I do."

    ☑️ Why pouring into yourself isn't taking anything away from anybody else

    ☑️ Living life on your terms serves as a huge inspiration for your children

    ☑️ Building a foundation for how to source a different way of being a woman

    About Dr. Amanda Hanson:

    Dr. Amanda Hanson is a clinical psychologist. Married thirty years, mother of four. For three decades she's sat across from women in the one chapter no one prepares them for, the chapter where everything they were taught about being a woman stops working for them. She wrote Muse for the women she'd never meet in her office and built her business so they'd have somewhere to come home to. Her work is clinical psychology braided back together with the feminine wisdom this culture has spent centuries erasing. She doesn't bring it back as a trend, but as tools for living

  • 1282: Grit, Muscle, and Connection

    "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

  • 1281: How Good Are You Willing to Feel? With Dr. Maggie

    "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.

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

    "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

  • 1279: How to Build a Calendar That Supports Your Life With Megan Sumrell

    "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:

  • 1278: What Every Adult Needs to Hear From the Next Generation

    "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

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

    "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

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

    "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 ***
