110: Redefining Ambition: From Overdoing to Deep Being with HeatherAsh Amara

How do we redefine ambition and passion in a way that nourishes us — rather than depletes us?

What happens when we shed the armor of who we think we should be… and meet who we actually are underneath?

How might creativity, sexuality, and self-intimacy be woven together on the path to true freedom?

Today, I’m joined by HeatherAsh Amara — author of nine books, including the bestselling Warrior Goddess Training and her latest, Wild, Willing, and Wise. HeatherAsh’s work gently, yet powerfully, guides us from self-judgment to self-intimacy, from victimhood to vulnerability, and into deeper steadiness and presence.

In this conversation, we talk about ambition, presence, and cyclical living. About how to soften the grip of over-responsibility and perfectionism. About the connection between creativity, sexuality, and surrender — and how freedom often lives on the other side of fear.

I hope this conversation invites you, as it did me, to consider: What if the way back to power isn’t about striving harder, but about remembering who you are beneath the armor?

Let’s dive in.
