This week’s guest is someone who brings passion, creativity, and heart to education — Heather Acosta, owner of Positive Expressionz Microschool. If you’ve followed Roni’s Remedy, my coaching brand and advice column, you know this show is all about real conversations, emotional wellness, personal growth, and the people who make our community stronger. Heather is one of those people who shows up with enthusiasm, compassion, and a deep love for her students.

In this episode, Heather shares how she built an almost‑at‑capacity microschool designed to meet each child exactly where they are. She has so many degrees I can’t even keep track — but what truly sets her apart is her ability to teach outside the box and create a learning environment where kids feel seen, supported, and excited to grow. Her love for the kiddos shines through everything she does.

We dive into questions about caring for aging parents, learning self‑care, and how toxic relationships can even influence unhealthy food choices. It’s honest, relatable, and full of the kind of wisdom that makes this show what it is — supportive, real, and rooted in growth. Heather’s perspective is refreshing, inspiring, and full of heart.

Thank you for joining me for Episode 16. This series continues to grow into a space for connection, healing, and stories that matter. Let’s keep learning and lifting each other up, one conversation at a time.
