In this episode of the Expert Speaker Podcast, host Majeed Mogharreban sits down with author, TEDx speaker, and financial wellness advocate Heather Coleman for a powerful and refreshingly real conversation about one of the last great taboos—money. Heather unpacks why financial wellness is the missing piece in most wellness programs, how our earliest money stories shape our adult behaviors, and what we can do today to take control of our financial future. From practical steps like 15-minute "money dates" to rethinking how we educate our kids about finances, Heather brings both strategy and soul to the money conversation.

Key Takeaways:

• Money is one of the few universal forces that touches every aspect of our lives—and yet, we rarely talk about it.

• Financial wellness is directly tied to mental wellness, productivity, and peace of mind.

• Your relationship with money is unique, and your strategy should be too.

• Start small: 15 minutes a month updating your net worth tracker can change everything.

• Don’t cut what brings you joy—learn to build a strategy that includes it.

• Financial literacy should start at home and be embedded into our school systems.

• You don’t have to go it alone. Build a team: financial planner, accountant, money coach.

Notable Quotes:

• "In order to get our minds right, we need to get our money right." – Heather Coleman

• "Money doesn’t discriminate. It’s the one thing every employee has in common—they come to work to get paid." – Heather Coleman

• "Avoiding your finances doesn’t relieve the stress. It makes it worse." – Heather Coleman

What if the thing holding you back from your next breakthrough isn't a lack of skill—but a lingering sense that you don't belong?

In this powerfully honest episode of the Expert Speaker Podcast, executive coach and “Forgiveness Coach” Dionne Nicholls-Germain sits down with Majeed to explore the deeper roots of imposter syndrome, and why so many high-performing women secretly question their worth—despite the titles, accolades, and success.

Dionne shares how unforgiveness (especially self-unforgiveness) quietly sabotages leadership, fulfillment, and confidence—and how reclaiming your power starts with a radical practice of compassion and courage. Drawing from her own story of reinvention, her keynote work in boardrooms around the world, and the tools in her 90-Day Conquering Unforgiveness Journal, Dionne equips us with a new lens for personal growth, executive leadership, and emotional freedom.

• Imposter Syndrome isn’t about ability—it’s about worthiness: Even top performers secretly fear being “found out.”

• High achievers often hide: Playing small and avoiding risks is a common coping mechanism for fear of being wrong.

• Confidence is built through action, not affirmation: Courage is the bridge between fear and confidence.

• Unforgiveness drains energy and blocks progress: It shows up in relationships, stalled careers, and self-sabotage.

• Forgiveness is a leadership superpower: Releasing old narratives builds emotional intelligence, decision-making clarity, and inner peace.

• Women leaders are still navigating systemic pressures: True belonging requires internal healing, not just external accomplishments.

• “At some point, someone’s going to find out I don’t belong.”

• “Confidence doesn’t come before the action—it comes from the action.”

• “Forgiveness is not a feeling—it’s a conscious decision to release what’s no longer serving you.”

• “If you’re feeling stuck in your career, your purpose, or your relationships—check your heart.”

• “Forgiveness is good business.”

Dionne Nicholls-Germain is a professionally trained Life & Leadership Coach known as The Forgiveness Coach. After leaving a 20-year corporate fashion career as a single mom at 40, Dionne reinvented herself—and now helps other women do the same. Through her company Live Your Best Life for You, she empowers female executives and entrepreneurs to heal, lead, and thrive.

She is the creator of the Conquering Unforgiveness Mastermind, author of The 90-Day Conquering Unforgiveness Journal, and an international speaker featured in Forbes, Negotiate Anything, and global leadership events from New York to Lisbon.

With over a decade of experience leading transformational writing workshops, Parrish shares how putting pen to paper can be a catalyst for clarity, healing, and lasting personal change—no fancy degrees or publishing goals required.

Parrish unpacks how even 15 minutes of guided writing can lighten your emotional load, how organizations are using writing therapy to reduce burnout, and why journaling isn’t just “self-care fluff” but a research-backed method to improve mental, emotional, and even physical health.

• It’s a safe and structured process: Writing workshops can offer vulnerability with safety—especially in a virtual format.

• Organizations are getting on board: Companies are integrating writing therapy to boost employee engagement, reduce burnout, and promote resilience.

• “Writing helps people come back to their values, which helps them make better decisions—faster.”

• “The relief people feel doesn’t come from me—it comes from the writing. I just create the container.”

• “You don’t need to keep it. You don’t need to share it. Sometimes the most healing thing you can do is write it and delete it.”

• “We are not just workers—we are whole humans. And writing gives us a way to process the human part.”

In this powerful conversation, Majeed Mogharreban sits down with author and spiritual guide Ellie Laliberté, whose latest book Letters From You to You was channeled through a season of deep surrender and introspection. Ellie shares how each of the 21 letters in her book speaks from the perspective of the higher self, offering insight, healing, and sometimes provocative truth.

They discuss the role of silence, how to navigate the dark night of the soul, and the creative process of intuitive writing. Ellie also opens up about the importance of detaching from ego, tuning into divine wisdom, and allowing your inner voice to guide you home.

• The “higher self” is the inner voice of wisdom, love, and truth that transcends ego and fear.

• Letters From You to You was written during a deeply spiritual time of letting go and trusting divine guidance.

• Silence is not only healing—it’s a doorway to self-understanding and peace.

• True transformation begins when we stop looking for answers outside of ourselves and begin listening inward.

• Ellie’s writing process is fully intuitive, proving you don’t need formal training to create something impactful.

• Readers are using the book both sequentially and intuitively, selecting a letter each day as a spiritual practice.

• “The truth can be triggering, but it’s also the most loving thing your higher self will ever offer you.”

• “We’re constantly trying to distract ourselves from our own emotions—silence invites us to face them.”

• “Everything you’re searching for is already within you. You just have to quiet the noise to hear it.”

• “Writing doesn’t have to be hard if you’re connected to something deeper than yourself.”

• “This isn’t just a book—it’s a spiritual tool for transformation.”
