Susan welcomes Heather Dempsey to today's episode. She is an emotional health coach and Mentor for life and business. Heather is a cat-loving foodie, personal development coach and self-care enthusiast who has helped hundreds of anxious and overwhelmed individuals and service-based entrepreneurs create radical emotional and mindset transformations so that they thrive. She supports her clients — from feeling hopeless, unhappy, and stressed, as if life would never going to be any different from what it has been — to actually feeling optimistic, like anything is possible, energized, and confident they are capable of having everything they desire as they've never experienced in their entire life or business before.

Key Takeaways:
