  • Food Therapy & Hormonal Healing with Luis Mojica (Part 1)

    Food Therapy & Hormonal Healing with Luis Mojica (Part 1)
    2026/09/01
    Heather sits down with somatic educator, nutritionist, and author Luis Mojica for part one of a two-part conversation about of the release of his new book, Food Therapy. Luis opens up about being born intersex, the decades of misunderstanding, bullying, and trauma that followed, and how he found his way to binge eating as a coping mechanism — and eventually, to healing. They dig into the deep connection between hormones, stress, and food, why "food therapy" is about your relationship with what you eat rather than a diet protocol, and practical shifts anyone can make (from balancing meals with protein, beans, and greens to rethinking that morning coffee). It's a raw, wide-ranging talk about the body, shame, resilience, and finding harmony — with part two still to come.

  • "Waking Up in Midlife: Wendy Valentine on Grief, Reinvention, and Leaning Into Your Destiny"

    "Waking Up in Midlife: Wendy Valentine on Grief, Reinvention, and Leaning Into Your Destiny"
    2026/08/25
    Wendy Valentine — author of Women Waking Up: The Midlife Manifesto for Passion, Purpose, and Play and host of the Midlife Makeover Show — joins Heather for a raw, wide-ranging conversation about rebuilding a life from the ground up. At 45, Wendy hit a full-on midlife meltdown: divorce, job loss, over $150K in debt, an empty nest, chronic illness, and the deaths of her dog, cat, and brother — all within weeks of each other. Instead of staying stuck, she chased a long-held dream of RVing across the country and completely reconstructed her life within two years. In this episode, Wendy and Heather dig into what it really means to "lean into your destiny," why midlife often feels less like a crisis and more like a coma we need to wake up from, how to grieve fully instead of stuffing it down, the "lotus effect" and being in the mud without being of it, and how to become your own best friend by rewiring the stories running through your head. It's a conversation about permission — to feel, to grieve, to change, and to finally show up for yourself.
