On this episode of Heidi’s Lane, I'm opening up about 8 lessons that have reshaped my life, bringing clarity and a deeper sense of purpose. Each lesson didn’t just appear; it emerged from the struggles, messy days, and little breakthroughs that have guided me to where I am now. In this episode, I talk about the power of creating space for what really matters, the strength that comes with learning to say “no,” and the importance of recognizing which “balls” in life are glass and which are plastic. These lessons have shown me how to breathe easier, let go of what doesn’t serve me, and truly prioritize my happiness and my family. I hope that by sharing these truths, you’ll find a piece that resonates with you too—a reminder or a new perspective to help you find your own balance.
