Choosing Happy

Grief, Growth, and Guts: A Journey Back to Happiness! ❤️


Listen Later

So, let me spill the tea!

Today’s chat is all about that sneaky feeling of being “done” with life—yep, I’ve been there too!

I’m Heather Masters, and I’ll be sharing my personal journey of rediscovering my zest for life, inspired by a heart-to-heart with my son and some lightbulb moments while diving back into my NLP roots. We’ll explore how grief can quietly steal your spark, but more importantly, how we can reclaim it!

Plus, I’ll be spilling the beans on a fabulous client who, at 70, decided to dive headfirst into coaching and lifeguarding—proof that it’s never too late to say “yes” to life!

So grab your cuppa and let’s get inspired to live our best lives, shall we?
