Podcast Description:
Confidence doesn’t just magically appear — not for us as parents, and not for our teens either. If you’ve ever struggled with self-doubt yourself, you know how hard it is to watch your child go through the same thing. In this episode, I’m breaking down what really builds confidence in kids and teens: small “brave reps,” mindset tools, and the support they get from us at home.

I’ll share practical ways you can help your teen move past fear of failure, perfectionism, and comparison, plus stories and encouragement to remind you that confidence is a skill — and it can be learned at any age.

👉 This is the final weekend to enroll your child in my 6-week Mindset for Kids course starting September 8th at 5pm PST. Give your teen a safe space to practice the tools we talk about in today’s episode. Learn more and sign up here: MINDSET COURSE

Episode 279 – Rewrite Your Story and Break the Cycle

We all carry stories from our families — patterns of thinking, trauma, or limiting beliefs that get passed down from one generation to the next. But here’s the truth: you don’t have to keep living the same script.

In this episode, I’ll walk you through how to recognize old narratives that no longer serve you and how to reframe them into something empowering and healing. You’ll learn practical tools for shifting your mindset so you can break free from generational cycles and step into the thriving version of yourself.

If you’re a parent, this is also a reminder that your kids don’t have to inherit those old stories either. That’s why I created my 6-Week Mindset for Kids Course — a program designed to help kids ages 12+ build confidence, regulate emotions, and develop resilience.

👉 Enroll your child in the next round starting soon at www.healthcoachheather.com

Let’s rewrite the story together. 💛

Episode 278: “I Don’t Deal with Death Very Well”

For our final day in the 30 Days of Coaching series, we’re tackling one of the most tender and universal struggles—how we deal with loss and death.

Grief is something we all encounter, yet few of us feel truly prepared for it. In this episode, I’ll walk you through:

• Why grief feels so heavy and overwhelming
• The ways our mind and body process loss
• How to give yourself (or your teen) permission to grieve without judgment
• Practical tools to cope when the emotions feel too big
• A reminder that healing doesn’t mean forgetting—it means learning to carry love forward in a new way

💡 If you’ve ever thought, “I just don’t deal with death very well,” this episode is here to remind you that there’s no “right way” to grieve—and that you are not alone in the process.

Thank you for journeying with me through these 30 days of coaching. My hope is that these conversations have given you and your family the tools to face life’s hardest challenges with more strength, compassion, and clarity.

And if you’d like deeper, ongoing support, I invite you to join my 6-Week Mindset Coaching Program for Teens, starting Sept 8th → https://healthcoachh.samcart.com/products/mindset-for-kids
