In This New Season

What Is a Successful Life? With Heather Gunn McQuillan


Listen Later

Heather Gunn McQuillan is the co-owner of Nature Space Resort in beautiful St. Peter’s Harbour, PEI. Heather massively redefined her understanding of success and adjusted her relationship to conventional success metrics (ex: being the Assistant Dean of a Veterinary Medicine College) to more internally designed metrics and creating a life that felt right from the inside out.

In this episode, Kailea and Heather discuss:

  • A PEI high schooler’s question: “What if I am never successful?”
  • What does success mean? What does failure mean? Are they external or internal realities?
  • Heather’s 3 P’s (belief patterns that create internal pain): perfectionism, personalizing, permanence
  • Coming up against a lack of control and what it can teach us
  • To feel successful, do you need a comfortable relationship with failure? How can failure free us?
  • How can we learn to savour life like a fine wine
