When Things Fall Apart: Courage, Intuition, and the Power of New Beginnings

What if the moments when everything crumbles are actually the doorway to something better?

In this week’s episode, Heather shares the raw truth behind those times life fell apart—and how intuition, courage, and unpopular choices led to growth she could never have planned.

Through real-life stories, you’ll explore:

• How the “worst thing” can shift everything and invite renewal
• The importance of acknowledging what you’ve already overcome
• Lessons from making hard, unpopular choices and trusting your instincts
• The difference between making courageous decisions and falling into old habits

Takeaways:

• Sometimes when life crumbles, it’s just making room for something even better, trust me!
• Choosing the tough path often means you're listening to that little voice inside, so don’t ignore it!
• Endings can feel like a total disaster, but they’re really just fresh starts in disguise!
• Remember, you’ve survived 100% of your worst days, so give yourself some serious credit!
• Courage means boldly choosing what’s right for you, even when everyone else is raising eyebrows.
• Ask yourself, is this choice for growth or just old fear trying to sneak back in?
