There are ways of knowing that don’t come through logic alone. Intuition, dreams, synchronicity, energy, and the quiet inner signals many of us have been taught to dismiss can all become pathways back to ourselves. In this episode, Heather sits down with Leslie Wolf Baker to explore shamanism through a grounded, accessible lens. Leslie describes shamanism as “walking between two worlds” - the prac...

Power. It’s a word that can feel charged, heavy, even triggering. We’re taught from a young age that power lives outside of us, in institutions, in titles, in money, in authority figures. But what if that definition is incomplete? What if the discomfort we feel around power is actually an invitation to redefine it? In this episode, Heather sits down with Emily Frieze-Kemeny to explore how power sh...

In this episode, I sit down with yoga teacher, healer, and author Kathleen McPhillips for a heart-led conversation about what yoga truly is, beyond the poses. Kathleen shares her lived experience of yoga as a lifelong spiritual practice: a path of breath, awareness, healing, and inner listening that has quite literally saved and transformed her life.

In this second part of my explant story, Natalie and I shift from the personal to the educational, exploring what I’ve learned about Breast Implant Illness (BII), the healing process, and what I wish I had known before ever getting implants. When I started researching BII, I began connecting the dots between so many things I had been experiencing, like gut issues, inflammation, low blood pressure,...

In this first of a two-part conversation, I’m sitting in the guest seat to share something deeply personal: my explant journey. For around 15 years, I lived with breast implants. I got them for reasons I understand now with a lot more compassion - to feel more confident, more “enough.” But over time, my body and spirit began to speak in ways I could no longer ignore, through the physical symptoms...
