About Heather

Focused on Achievement

For much of my life, I focused on achievement, learning, and caring for the people around me. I earned degrees, built a successful career, raised a family, and immersed myself in helping others thrive. Yet beneath the accomplishments, there were times when I felt disconnected from parts of myself—my creativity, my leadership, and the deeper calling that was quietly asking for my attention.

​​

Fear of Being Me

My own journey of transformation began when I woke up one day and realized that while my career looked successful from the outside, it no longer reflected who I was becoming. I had spent years listening to my guidance and dreaming about a different life, but fear kept me tethered to the familiar. Eventually, the pull toward something more authentic became impossible to ignore.

 

The "yes" years

​I left my career, sold most of my possessions, travelled, wrote songs, moved to New York with my partner, made an album, and began rebuilding my life from the inside out. Along the way, I became a mother, continued writing and performing music, and immersed myself in coaching, personal growth, and spiritual exploration. Above all, I learned the power of saying "yes" to life.

Inner Leader

Through that journey, I discovered that true leadership begins within. The answers I was searching for were never outside of me—they were found in my own wisdom, courage, authenticity, and heart. Today, I help others reconnect with themselves, uncover what is holding them back, and step into the life they are here to live. Through transformational coaching, retreats, intuitive guidance, and creative expression, I create spaces where people can come home to their truth, reclaim their gifts, and move forward with greater purpose, joy, and freedom.

My life changed the moment I stopped asking what was safe and started saying yes to what was true.​​​

Greatest hardship, greatest learning.

I grew up in the small town of Woodstock with a loving family and a piano always nearby. From age 3 to 18, I trained intensively in classical piano, aiming for a performance degree. At 16, I failed my exam by one mark—a crushing moment that led to a full-on teenage breakdown. But in that failure, I discovered the real gift: my deep love for music beyond the pressure, judgement and perfectionism. I retried, passed, and gained not just a certificate but a new understanding of discipline, resilience, and self-worth. Though I decided to take a break from music, it’s become a source of joy and strength in everything I do.
