  • 256. Peace Over Pleasing with Michelle Keil

    In this deeply validating and spiritually grounding conversation, Heather is joined again by Coach Michelle Keil, known as The Doodle Coach, who helps women quiet their inner critic, lighten their emotional load, and reconnect with their truest selves through creativity, doodling, and grace.

    Together they explore a pattern so many women of faith experience: serving from fear, guilt, and obligation instead of from divine connection and overflow. Michelle shares powerful principles around discerning motives, regulating our nervous system, and recognizing the subtle lines between Christlike service and self-erasure.

    With relatable examples, doctrinal insights, and gentle but liberating reframes, this episode helps listeners recognize when they are saying "yes" out of fear of disappointing others—and how to instead find the peace that comes from aligning with God.

  • 254. Confident in the Unknown with Sam Smith

    In this episode, Heather sits down with young adult career coach Sam Smith to talk about one of the most universal human experiences—uncertainty. Sam works with 20-somethings who feel paralyzed by big life decisions.

    Together, Heather and Sam explore why uncertainty is normal and necessary, how faith and trust in Heavenly Parents reframe our need for certainty, and why our divine identity matters more than our labels. Sam offers three concrete tools to move from fear to action and explains how building confidence in uncertainty translates into real-world courage for job interviews, big decisions, and everyday life.

  • 253. Sin, Scripture, and Holy Hunger with Adam Miller (Rerelease)

    In this special Latter-day Life Coaches roundtable, philosopher and author Adam S. Miller joins Heather Rackham and a panel of coaches to explore three big themes from Letters to a Young Mormon: sin (as preferring our story to God's life), scripture (as an ongoing work of translation in our own tongue and flesh), and hunger (as a God-given grace that keeps us present and alive to our needs and the needs of others). Together they connect theology to practice—how coaches help clients loosen "shoulds," retell constricting narratives, translate scripture into living guidance, and befriend embodied hunger with care. It's a thoughtful, faith-centered conversation that invites us to choose the present, co-create with God, and let love work in real time.

  • 252. Owning Your Spirituality (Rerelease) with Jennifer Finlayson-Fife

    Spirituality is our connection with the divine. It is where our spirits are able to connect on a level above mortality with God. Often we can become scared and fearful of that higher level connection and what it will mean for the current truths we hold dear if we learn things that contradict them and the beliefs of those around us.

    To Dr. Jennifer Finlayson-Fife, discovering those truths from a place of courage instead of fear is how we have integrity with ourselves and with God. We believe in a Restoration that didn't just happen with the Prophet Joseph Smith, but that is still continuing today. It is our duty as saints in these latter days to realize that we are part of that Restoration as we establish Zion within ourselves and as a collective group by seeking out truth.

Together, they unpack five practical steps that guide listeners out of what Jill calls "the conflict wilderness" and toward the breathtaking "authentic connection vista."

    Through relatable stories and grounded wisdom, Jill helps us see that the way through disagreement isn't silence or shouting—it's curiosity, humility, and love.

  • 250. Trauma in the Body: Exploring Somatic Experiencing with Jill Freestone

    In this deeply informative and experiential episode, life and emotion coach Jill Freestone returns to explore somatic experiencing (SE), a powerful, body-based trauma healing modality developed by Peter Levine. Jill shares the origins and science behind SE, explains the difference between trauma and traumatic stress, and illustrates key concepts such as titration, pendulation, and the body's innate ability to process and heal.

    Listeners will walk away with a new understanding of how trauma is stored in the nervous system, why talk therapy isn't always enough, and how somatic tools can restore a sense of agency, safety, and emotional regulation. Jill also shares personal stories—including her own healing around a traumatic birth—and gives listeners real-time practices to begin reconnecting with their bodies in gentle, compassionate ways.

  • 247. Living in Overflow with Tanya Hale

    In this empowering episode, Heather welcomes returning guest Tanya Hale, a certified coach and podcast host, to explore the transformational idea of living in overflow—not depletion. Tanya challenges the traditional "fill your bucket just to empty it again" mindset and introduces a refreshing, soul-centered alternative: what if we are meant to live full, whole, and spiritually grounded so that our overflow is what blesses others?

    Through personal stories, gospel reflections, and energy-mindset tools, Tanya teaches how to reclaim emotional energy, celebrate yourself without guilt, and show up in relationships as a true equal. This conversation is especially powerful for women who have been conditioned to give at their own expense and are ready to unlearn patterns of scarcity.
