Hosted by Heather Chauvin | Insights inspired by Mel Robbins

All external pressure is off ladies! It's time to listen to the inner pull. Mastering the art of knowing when to slow down and breathe vs. when to take action. It's time we value our desires. See your value. Own it. Communicate it. It's time to become wildly #emotionallyuncomfortable
This podcast will crack you open and force you to grow. Interviews and storytelling about business, emotional intelligence, creativity, love, being different, parenting, and more...

Emotionally Uncomfortable

"It's a fallacy that when a woman takes center stage in her life, everyone else suffers. No, everyone else expands."
 
In this episode, Heather and Dr. Amanda Hanson dig into the moment when a woman begins to realize just how much of her life has been shaped by expectations, conditioning, caretaking, and the insidious belief that everyone else gets a say before she does. They explore what happens when you start deconstructing the ground you were planted in and questioning the influences behind the choices you've made, the relationships you've maintained, and the ways you've learned to perform being a "good" woman. This conversation moves through midlife, mortality, desire, authenticity, and the uncomfortable freedom of realizing you're allowed to want something different, even when the people around you don't understand it.
 
What to listen for:
 
☑️ Why women struggle to believe that they actually get a say in their own lives
 
☑️ The fear of dying and how it shows up unconsciously for most women
 
☑️ Deconditioning from the influences that are driving your beliefs
 
"Before I can help a woman build a new life for herself, I have to help her deconstruct the soil she was already planted in because otherwise we're actually just building a straw house on faulty ground."
 
☑️ Stop waiting for the "I'm ready" moment, and pay attention to your actions
 
☑️ Why our caretaking hormones tank in midlife, and how we lean into what's next
 
☑️ You can't really be known and loved if you're performing in your relationships
 
"Women want more connection to themselves and to the people in their lives. They realize that the window is closing, and they want to know what it feels like to be raptured by life."
 
☑️ Choosing the most raw, authentic, unfiltered version of yourself in every area
 
☑️ Women can't be honest with others because they're not honest with themselves
 
☑️ Standing steady in the face of people who are uncomfortable with your expression
 
"I'm not going to spend one millisecond wasting my life force energy and this precious gift I've been given trying to convince anybody to believe or think the way that I do."
 
☑️ Why pouring into yourself isn't taking anything away from anybody else
 
☑️ Living life on your terms serves as a huge inspiration for your children
 
☑️ Building a foundation for how to source a different way of being a woman

1283: What Happens When You Stop Asking for Permission to Live With Dr. Amanda Hanson

"Grit will keep you going. But when you just keep showing up because you're living in a place of survival, sometimes you gotta fight like hell to feel alive."
 
In this episode, Heather explores the complicated relationship many ambitious women have with striving, success, and the never-ending pressure to keep moving toward what's next. Ambition is a powerful force, even a deeply human and spiritual desire, but when we live in the shadow of our strengths, the very qualities that help us achieve can begin to drain us. She talks about recognizing when your to-do list has become more nourished than your soul, how depletion can quietly shape your decisions, and why the body and our lives often start communicating through symptoms, frustration, and anger when something needs to change. This conversation also looks at what it takes to build the grit and resilience to keep showing up for yourself, invest in your growth, and direct your time and energy toward the life you actually want to create.
 
 
 
What to listen for:
 
☑️ Staying in your own lane and focusing your energy to get to the next-level vision
 
☑️ Living in the shadow of your strengths and why the dark side of ambition is burnout 
 
☑️ Investing in personal and professional development so that you don't sink
 
 
 
"The dark side of ambition is burnout because when you're living in the shadow of your strengths, you are going to burn out to a crisp. You're going to be in this state of lack."
 
☑️ Ambition as spiritual desire and a sacred fundamental of our soul as humans
 
☑️ So many women aren't feeding their souls; they're feeding their to-do lists
 
☑️ Why the symptoms of the body and your life will often appear as anger
 
 
 
"When you normalize debt and not profit, you walk around making decisions from a place of depletion, making decisions that continue cycles that are not in alignment with where you want to go and what you actually want to grow."
 
☑️ Things Heather did to turn her body around when it started speaking to her
 
☑️ Becoming a life athlete with the grit to keep showing up, even when you don't want to
 
☑️ Feeling connected to others requires connecting with yourself first
 
 
 
"The more you invest time and energy in yourself—seeing yourself, understanding yourself, and valuing your precious time and energy—this is where we feel truly alive and connected to ourselves."
 
☑️ What are you prioritizing, and where is your time and energy going?
 
☑️ Resistance training will bring you back to life when you're struggling
 
☑️ You don't need another strategy, but you may need accountability

1282: Grit, Muscle, and Connection

"If you want to feel alive and energized and lead people, you've got to do things differently."
 
In this episode, Heather and Dra. Margarita Ramírez (aka Dr. Maggie) step into a deeply personal conversation about what it means to take ownership of your health, question the beliefs you've inherited about your body, and remain open to possibilities outside the systems and approaches you've always known. Heather shares her own journey navigating the long-term effects of cancer treatment, hormonal changes, fatigue, and the persistent feeling that something in her body was off, leading her to seek a different perspective while living in Mexico. From Heather's experience with placenta injections to the broader conversation around inflammation, metabolism, peptides, and preparing the body for healing, this episode opens the door to a larger question: how good are you willing to let yourself feel?
 
What to listen for:
 
☑️ Medical tourism and expanding your healing team beyond traditional medicine
 
☑️ No longer doing anything that isn't life-enhancing, or that leads to burnout
 
☑️ Results Heather experienced from getting placenta injections in Mexico
 
 
 
"Listen to your body because if you have any kind of symptoms that you normalize, it's not you. It's something inside of you that needs to change"
 
☑️ What regenerative medicine is, and how Dr. Maggie started practicing it
 
☑️ Finding a doctor that knows how to listen to what your body is saying
 
☑️ The importance of getting different perspectives on health issues
 
 
 
"The placenta is most important for getting nutrition to babies. If you realize that it's responsible for giving growing babies nutrition, imagine what kind of benefits you can get from that."
 
☑️ Having a proactive, long-game perspective, and looking from varying angles
 
☑️ The reason placenta healing works more quickly at a cellular level
 
☑️ Learning how to value your health on a holistic, deep level

1281: How Good Are You Willing to Feel? With Dr. Maggie

"When things look successful on the outside, but they don't feel successful on the inside, that's because you're only obsessed with one type of profit."
 
In this episode, Heather explores the four types of profit and why financial success is only one piece of a much bigger picture. In other words, what if the life you want isn't just about making more money, having more time, or checking more boxes, but about learning how to create a life that actually feels good to live? This conversation is an invitation to rethink what you're actually building and ask whether the way you're spending your time, energy, and attention is creating more of the life you want or quietly pulling you further away from it. Because true abundance isn't about squeezing more out of yourself. It's about learning to value your time, your body, your relationships, your purpose, and your financial wellbeing as crucial parts of the same life.
 
What to listen for:
☑️ Why financial literacy is a core foundation, a basic human need, and a skill
 
☑️ Understanding the four types of profit and why you can't only focus on one
 
☑️ Taking radical responsibility for how you want to feel and not masking
 
 
 
"You're still not taking radical responsibility for how you want to feel. You're not honoring your boundaries, your vision, your capacity. You're hiding and playing small because you're avoiding being human."
 
☑️ If you're giving less to yourself, how can you ever be more for your child?
 
☑️ Being the woman and role model that your 20-year-old self would look up to
 
☑️ The reason most women back away when on the verge of transformation
 
 
 
"You have to think differently. You have to fight for a new life, a new identity. You have to give a fucking shit. A sliver of it. That's it, and do something that's slightly uncomfortable."
 
☑️ It's one thing to be scared and uncomfortable; it's another to lie to yourself
 
☑️ You're not 'doing everything for your kids' if you're being performative
 
☑️ When you're constantly reacting, your body starts deteriorating
 
 
 
"If you have zero emotional intelligence skills, you'll have zero time on your hands. You're going to feel so unfulfilled, and you are going to waste your one precious life."
 
☑️ Learning how to put yourself first on your calendar, and why it matters
 
☑️ Understanding what your body craves and how to not eject from your body
 
☑️ The key to using time in alignment with the life you want to live

1280: There Are Four Types Of Profit. I Bet You're Only Chasing One.

"Time management is not something you're born with or born without. It's a skill that anybody can learn if they're being taught in a reasonable way."
 
In this episode, Heather and Megan Sumrell explore what it means to stop fighting time and start building a life that actually has room for you to live. So many of us approach planning from a place of pressure, trying to squeeze more into every available pocket of time, sacrifice sleep to catch up, or follow rigid systems that were never designed around our actual lives. But creating a calm, organized life isn't about becoming more productive; it's about building enough structure to protect what matters while leaving space for the unexpected, the people we love, and the parts of ourselves that can't be scheduled. Learn how to let go of the shame of not doing it all, increase your capacity instead of constantly playing catch-up, and redefine productivity so that the white space in your calendar becomes part of the life you're creating.
 
What to listen for:
 
☑️ Getting into a relationship with time rather than always trying to "beat it"
 
☑️ The sooner we learn to build ourselves back into our lives, the better we'll feel
 
☑️ Why the way you're planning might be keeping you perpetually behind
 
 
 
"Learning how to create a plan that supports enough structure to ensure important things are getting done while also leaving space to absorb life and the reality of life, that's really the sweet spot."
 
☑️ Releasing the shame and pressure we put on ourselves to plan perfectly
 
☑️ Sacrificing your sleep is not the way to create more time, and what to do instead
 
☑️ Why you should never follow someone else's rigid morning routine
 
 
 
"A successful tool or system is one where the steps that you follow are the same for everybody, but the inputs are uniquely yours, and the outputs are uniquely yours."
 
☑️ Goal setting is a waste of time when you don't have control of your daily life
 
☑️ How to increase your capacity so that you don't begin each week already behind
 
☑️ Teaching our children time management skills so they can thrive
 
 
 
"The stuff that's important to me is represented on my calendar and protected to ensure I can get them done. But my identity is in all the white space on my calendar."
 
☑️ Breaking the belief that you have to be productive in your open pockets of time
 
☑️ Learning to think like someone who knows how to create a calm, organized life
 
☑️ Building a full life that isn't stressful or constantly overbooked

1279: How to Build a Calendar That Supports Your Life With Megan Sumrell

"Before you try to tell your kid what to do, you've got to look at yourself. You've got to really reflect on the things that you're doing."
 
In this episode, Heather sits down with two remarkable young adults who have been part of her life in different ways: her 21-year-old son, Logan, and Brooklyn, a longtime family friend she's had the privilege of watching grow into adulthood. Woven together with her reflections, these conversations offer an honest look at what our maturing kids are craving from the adults around them and what happens when we choose to guide rather than control. They explore the lasting impact of feeling seen, the tension between protecting our children and preparing them for life, and the ways our own fears, expectations, and unresolved stories can shape the next generation without us realizing it. Whether you're raising young children, parenting adult kids, mentoring someone, or simply reflecting on your own upbringing, this episode is an invitation to listen with fresh ears. Sometimes the greatest lessons about leadership, connection, and emotional maturity come from the very people we've been trying to teach all along.
 
What to listen for: 
 
☑️ When children live on their own and learn what "no one's coming to save you" means
 
☑️ Embracing uncertainty and what it looks like to have a safe support system in life
 
☑️ The privilege of suffering and how it helps us heal and grow more quickly
 
 
 
"Until I faced my shit and realized all the things that I need to overcome, all the overwhelming feelings and the fear and just all my shit, that was when I started my journey of getting through it and slowly chipping away at some big issues."
 
☑️ No matter where you go, you still have to face yourself and work through your shit
 
☑️ How the current systems are manipulating young adults into focusing on money
 
☑️ Experiencing contrast and navigating the projection of fear as a parent
 
 
 
"At the end of the day, there's not one parent that's great. Parents fuck up. We're all human beings. We're all learning. It's just a matter of how much you choose to learn."
 
☑️ How getting in touch with your emotions can change you and your entire life
 
☑️ Dropping our conditioning to open up more possibilities in our lives and careers
 
☑️ Understanding the only control we truly have in uncertain situations
 
 
 
"Just take the action. Like a game, if you take the action, it will happen, but you just have to have that consistency. You have to push yourself. You can't half-ass it." 
 
☑️ Knowing when to show support and when to hold your children accountable
 
☑️ Being present for your kids without judging their lives or projecting onto them
 
☑️ The importance of aligning your environment with who you want to be

1278: What Every Adult Needs to Hear From the Next Generation

"Living life from a different perspective heals the past and also paves the way for the future as well."
 
In this episode, Heather and Eddy Tony explore what it really means to heal, not by becoming someone new, but by integrating the parts of yourself you've spent years trying to outrun. This conversation challenges the idea that transformation comes from a single breakthrough or magic solution, inviting us to consider a gentler process of awareness, compassion, and daily practice. At its heart, this episode is an invitation to trust your own unfolding, soften into the process of becoming, and discover that healing comes from welcoming every part of yourself home, rather than erasing who you've been or clinging to outdated identities.
 
What to listen for:
 
☑️ How we can change our identity, personality, and how we feel emotionally
 
☑️ There's no magic bullet for healing, but there is a process to get lasting change
 
☑️ Why you need to see it, feel it, balance it, and integrate it to step out of old loops
 
 
 
"There is no magic bullet. Where psychedelics are really great at is seeing it, increasing awareness within yourself about old patterns, loops, and behaviors."
 
☑️ Why everything bubbles up to the surface when it's ready to be transformed
 
☑️ Navigating the grief of letting go of your former identity and stepping into freedom
 
☑️ How to commune with the parts you're releasing with deep compassion
 
 
 
"The grieving dissolves and happens on its own because that part also has a home within yourself, within themselves. As opposed to extracting that part, they can integrate and soften back into wholeness."
 
☑️ Healing doesn't have to be heavy; oftentimes, it's in the small daily decisions
 
☑️ Looking for the positives inside of challenges, and how that helps us heal
 
☑️ Coming into full coherence and acceptance, removing the inner war
 
 
 
"It doesn't have to feel so heavy. So leaning into what is happening and seeing the positives that are coming out of it as well. It's about bringing the person into full coherence of what is actually going on."
 
☑️ Where psilocybin or psychedelics come in and how they create more freedom
 
☑️ Taking the tips and wisdom of our natural world and applying it to ourselves
 
☑️ How the intention to release and let go can change your life

1277: Inside a Psilocybin Retreat: What to Expect & How It Changes You | with Eddy Tony

"You cannot make an impact on anybody unless you are willing to change your internal ecosystem."
 
In this episode, Heather challenges some of the most deeply rooted assumptions about parenting, leadership, and what it really means to prepare our children for adulthood, especially our boys. She takes an honest look at the emotional dynamics between men and women, how dependence is often learned rather than our inherent nature, and why both sons and daughters benefit when we teach responsibility, communication, and resilience instead of rescuing. At its heart, this episode is an invitation to lead with intention, hold loving boundaries, and recognize that our role as parents doesn't end when our children become adults
 
What to listen for:
 
☑️ Why not everyone has the DNA to go for the next level in their life or work
 ☑️ Making things happen is actually pretty boring, which is why most people don't do it
 ☑️ The biggest lie we're told is that we're done parenting when our kids reach 18
 
"I've made the conscious decision that I'm not here to wipe my kids' ass for the rest of their life, but I am here to be their rock, their person, and their guide. When we choose to be a leader to our children, to be the integrator, to support them along this journey, things will change."
 
☑️ 'Independent men' don't exist, and what that means for us as women
 ☑️ Why men haven't been able to emotionally free themselves from women yet
 ☑️ All humans struggle; some are just better at communicating it than others
 
"I had to soften, and the number one thing that I realized is men struggle too. I didn't realize how much they struggle, and I didn't realize how dependent they are on nurturing."
 
☑️ Without evidence of what they're carrying, how do you know you carry more?
 ☑️ Raising men that understand emotional labor and domestic responsibility
 ☑️ Understanding resistance and learning how to hold hard boundaries
 
"I've taught them that they can use their voice to communicate what's going on, and that I'm going to actively listen. And not all their problems need to be fixed by me. One of the core wounds that I see women do is needing to fix their behavior."
 
☑️ Men learn to be dependent on women based on how they were raised
 ☑️ Teaching your male children the skills they need to become independent
 ☑️ Why letting your children have their own identity outside of us is so crucial

1276: What My Three Boys [13, 16, 21] Forced Me to Stop Doing Recently

"We should not be listening to things outside of us. Your body is telling you what you need."
 
In this episode, Heather and Corey Colwell explore what happens when life forces you to stop long enough to hear the messages your body has been trying to communicate all along. Through a remarkable story that begins with a coyote bite at two years old and winds through years of health challenges, motherhood, overachievement, and a profound near-death experience, this conversation invites you into the space where intuition, healing, and purpose converge. At its heart, this episode is about learning to listen, not to the endless noise outside of us, but to the wisdom already living within our bodies, our souls, and the quiet nudges that keep trying to guide us back toward alignment, vitality, and a life that feels deeply alive.
 
What to listen for: 
 
☑️ How getting bitten by a coyote at two years old shaped her passion in later life
 ☑️ Busyness and constantly moving forward keep you from listening to my body
 ☑️ The near-death experience that helped Corey choose to be in this life
 
 
 
"When people say fighting for your life, you have to recruit everything to get alive again. And so I fought my way back from that moment."
 
☑️ The importance of listening to that intuitive primal knowing when it comes up
 ☑️ What it feels like when your soul fully aligns with your body and human experience
 ☑️ Why it wasn't enough to just be alive and in bed, and what helped turn things around
 
 
 
"I was alive, and everyone's like, 'Great, just stay in bed.' And what happened is I started to experience an intellectual and passion death because my entire why is to solve problems and innovate."

1275: What Happens When Your Soul Aligns With Your Life With Corey Colwell

"Not everything your body is telling you is a symptom that needs to be fixed. Sometimes it's grief."
 
In this episode, Heather shares a deeply personal reflection on what happens when you outgrow the pain, patterns, and identities that once helped you survive but no longer support where you're going. She explores the uncomfortable process of letting go of old stories, relationships, expectations, and the versions of ourselves we've worked so hard to become. From business lessons and the cost of giving away your own authority to the grief that surfaces when your body finally feels safe enough to release what it has been holding, this episode is an honest exploration of healing, growth, and reinvention.
 
What to listen for:
 
☑️ The story of "I don't know how to market myself," and how Heather lost her voice
 ☑️ Why women sabotage themselves through overdoing and taking on too much
 ☑️ Outsourcing your confidence and intuition, and trusting when things feel off
 
 
 
"I've had a vision of making a bigger impact. It hasn't happened. The reason why it hasn't happened is that I went down a rabbit hole believing other people could solve my problem because I believed their words, not their behavior."
 
☑️ Investing in the people who are actually in the arena, truly doing their own work
 ☑️ Sticking with things long enough to allow them to start gaining momentum
 ☑️ If you don't want to do the hard work in business, then get a job
 
 
 
"Hiring marketing people for my team and then outsourcing my power and my confidence in them cost me so much fucking money, and it almost killed me."
 
☑️ Listening to your body when it starts communicating that something isn't right
 ☑️ The reason why the Universe puts things in front of your face until you're ready to listen
 ☑️ Why our grief is often about who we were when we were with the ones we lost
 
 
 
"When I looked at those panic attacks, I kept thinking, 'What is this?' I truly believe that my body was letting go because it felt safe in the middle of the night. That was when I was at rest, and it was letting go of these old stories."
 
☑️ Committing to no longer struggling and being done with people who don't show up
 ☑️ Time under tension triggers disease, which is why it's essential to process your feelings
 ☑️ When you deeply trust yourself, life challenges start to feel less scary

1274: [Life Update] I Outgrew My Pain (& It Hurt Like a B!+CH to Let It Go)

"If you're overfocused on your kid, you're quite likely under-focusing on your own passion. Despite what you may think, your kid is not your passion. If you treat them as if they are, you're placing them in the very untenable and unhealthy role of trying to bring fulfillment to your life. Support your kid's interests, yes. Be proud—very proud—of them. But find your own passion and purpose. For your kid's sake and your own, you must."
