The power of self-care: Transforming your life for lasting health and happiness!

Join us for an empowering conversation with Dr. Martine Canal, a Self-Care Strategist, nurse, and best-selling author with over 25 years of experience.

The Wakeup Call We All Need:

Dr. Martine shares personal and professional insights into why so many women wait until a crisis occurs to prioritize their health and wellness.

Learn to recognize the subtle signs that your body and mind crave self-care—before they become emergencies.

She recounts a pivotal moment during the COVID-19 pandemic when she realized the toll of stress, overwork, and neglect on her health. Sitting on her couch with a pounding headache and high blood pressure, she feared following in her mother's footsteps. This realization sparked her transformative self-care journey.

Empowering Women Over 40:

Discover women's unique challenges during mid-life and why self-care is a non-negotiable cornerstone for sustained well-being.

Practical tips to overcome guilt and prioritize yourself without sacrificing your responsibilities.

Dr. Martine reflects on the cultural emphasis on hustle and asks, "What is enough?" She discusses redefining success and shifting focus to purposeful living.

Proven Strategies for Stress Reduction:

Explore simple yet powerful techniques for reducing stress, from mindfulness practices to time-efficient routines seamlessly integrating into busy lives.

Real-life success stories from Dr. Martine’s clients showcase the transformative power of self-care.

She emphasizes that self-care is not an indulgence but a necessity and highlights the importance of spending time—not just money—on oneself.

Creating Balance and Fulfillment:

How to align your daily choices with your values to cultivate a sense of purpose and joy.

Tips for integrating self-care into all aspects of life, from career to relationships.

She reflects on the importance of acknowledging others and sharing a powerful story about the impact of a single smile or kind gesture.

Key Takeaways:

Don’t wait for a wake-up call to take charge of your well-being.

Simple, consistent self-care practices can transform your health and happiness.

You’re not alone in this journey—start where you are and permit yourself to prioritize you.

Self-care is about addressing root causes, not just symptoms, to achieve long-lasting health and balance.

It's a bit of a roller coaster this week!

Barbara shares her heart-wrenching story of her son's death and how it shifted everything for her!

*Spoiler alert* He actually recovered!

Barbara Symons is a tireless spiritual seeker whose experience within Christian fundamentalism spanned forty-three years. She was a teacher, Deliverance Minister (Exorcist), head of Women’s Intercession and Women’s Ministries, and served on the Council of Elders.

After leaving the church system in 1999, Barbara began to explore multiple spiritual and homeopathic disciplines and was ordained. She has written two books: Escaping Christianity: Finding Christ and Musings from an Ex-Christian Fundamentalist.

She is a frequent guest on numerous podcast platforms around the globe. Barbara has keen insight into organized religion and writes on social media, chronicling her journey to regain her critical thinking outside of the organized church system. She is an adept speaker and teacher who hopes to bring light into the mysteries and metaphorical content that may be found within the historical stories of the Bible and beyond.

Barbara is married to Lyle and lives in College Station, Texas. They will celebrate their forty-seventh anniversary on August 19th. Together, they have three wonderful sons, ten grandchildren, and one great-grandchild.

What would have happened if I'd had an idea and not done anything?

I wouldn't have left my corporate career, I wouldn't have moved into wellness and I definitely wouldn't I have launched a podcast!

The first step can be the hardest but I want you to take an action towards your dreams! I don't want you to hear it and then forget it giving yourself a pile of excuses. I want you to believe that you can because if you don't take action then nothing is going to change.

So... what teeny tiny step will you take today?

Every week, we talk about really taking care of yourself and how it's actually a good thing to take care of yourself. It will, you know, make your life so much better in the long run.

This week, I'm talking with Jeanne Gallagher about her passion project, Rising Tides. This is a place where Jeanne talks with incredible women to understand their journey.

Where are they? How do they show up for others? But then how do they show up for themselves, and how does the outdoors play a part in that?

Jeanne is an independent financial advisor in the US and you can find her contact information below.

She was quoted as saying "I had no idea. And so what happened is the podcast gave me an outlet to understand myself, how important the outdoors is to me and my well-being and others around me."

Hey there, my friend! 🎉 Guess what? We’ve made it to episode 200!

I know, right?! I’m just as surprised (and excited) as you are. And you might be wondering, "So, Heather, who’s the guest for this big milestone?" Well, today, it’s just us, and we’re diving into a little reflection.

Here’s the thing—we all hit these milestones in life, but how often do we really celebrate them? So often, we brush them off because, hey, someone else has probably done more, right? But this? This is a big deal! 200 episodes mean 200 conversations, tons of learning, and SO many connections with you.

When I started this podcast, I didn’t have everything planned out (if you know me, that’s not surprising 😆). But as I got going, it all started to come together, and I realized the podcast had three big purposes:

First is YOU! Yep, you are my #1 reason for doing this. Each episode, I want to bring you fresh ideas, new resources, and those little sparks of inspiration to help you feel good, live well, and maybe even see things in a new light.

Next - I love highlighting amazing people. Along the way, I’ve met some of the most incredible folks—experts, healers, coaches, you name it. These are the kind of people who light up the world in their own way, and I love that I get to share their insights with you.

And finally… me. I didn’t realize it at first, but this podcast has been a huge part of my journey too. Every person I talk to, every story I hear, gives me something new to think about, new lessons, and new ways to keep growing myself.

So today, let's celebrate! Thank you for being here, for listening, and for being part of this journey. Here’s to 200 more (at least)! 🎉
