In today’s episode, I sat down with the wonderful Heather Stewart—transformation facilitator, host of the Back to Me podcast, and all-around inspiration. Heather took us through her journey from corporate finance to holistic wellness, including the pivotal moment when a health scare led her to reimagine her life and work. We dove into the evolution of her podcast, the power of self-care (and why it’s not selfish!), the behind-the-scenes realities of podcasting, and her leap onto a new global network. Heather’s story is a reminder that it’s okay to reinvent yourself and that lifting others up always comes full circle. My hope is you leave this episode feeling empowered to honor your worth, embrace change, and maybe even take that next bold step with your own podcast or creative journey. Thanks for listening—I can’t wait to hear what you think!
