Alchemizing It All Into Inner Medicine With Guest Kerri Hummingbird

Illuminate Your Worth with Heather Stewart  In this episode of Illuminate Your Worth with Heather Stewart - Transformation Facilitator, we’re going deep into the difference between navigating life from your logical, “figuring it out” brain… and letting yourself be changed by real, messy, beautiful experience... the kind that brings broken bones, belly laughs, deep love, betrayal, loss, birth, death, winning, and losing into the mix. If you’ve been standing on the sidelines, watching everyone else “do life,” trying to think your way into clarity, this conversation is your invitation to step onto the field as your fully, imperfectly, and on purpose self. You’ll hear stories and reflections from my own journey of walking away from the perfectly planned life to actually live the one my soul came here for. We’ll explore: - Knowing vs. Living: The sneaky ways you use your clever, logical brain to stay safe… and how that quietly keeps you disconnected from the life you say you want. - The Sidelines Pattern: How overthinking, people-pleasing, and “just one more course/podcast/book” keep you stuck watching instead of participating. - The “Life To-Do List” Lie: Why not having all the boxes checked (marriage, kids, house, career, whatever your version is) does not mean you’re behind or missing something. - The Cost of Avoiding the “Bad Bits”: How trying to dodge pain, failure, or heartbreak also blocks you from the wild, glorious, holy-good moments your soul is craving. - Feedback, Not a Verdict: A new way to look at your current results (or lack of them) without making them proof that you’re broken or “failing at life.” - Tiny Ways to Get Back in the Game: Gentle, doable experiments to move from observing life to actually experiencing it, in a way that honours your nervous system and your energy. This episode is for you if: - You’ve done “everything right” on paper, but inside you feel numb, restless, or like you somehow missed the memo on how to enjoy your own life. - You’re exhausted from carrying everyone else’s needs and still feel guilty when you even think about wanting more for yourself. - You catch yourself thinking, “Is this just how it is? Is something wrong with me that I can’t seem to be happy with this?” - You’re craving peace, depth, and aliveness... not more hustle, hacks, or high-performance tips. Your next step (if this lands): If today’s episode feels like a nudge from your future self, book an Alignment Activation Call with Heather. In 60 minutes, we’ll zoom out on your life, spot the patterns that are keeping you on the sidelines, and name one clear, aligned next move so you can start living instead of just thinking about living. https://heatherstewart.coach/talk-to-me Find Your Value: A Collection of Stories and Strategies on Finding Yourself Through Your Values   Co-Author Heather Stewart   Amazon.com – https://www.amazon.com/dp/0991925246 Amazon.ca – https://www.

Knowing Versus Living – Heather Stewart

Illuminate Your Worth with Heather Stewart  If you’re in a season where nothing feels quite right… You’ve outgrown the old version of you, but the new one isn’t fully here yet… And you’re secretly wondering, “What if I’m the problem?” This episode is for you. In this episode Heather Stewart, Transformation Guide is talking about the in between places... you know them, that tender, messy, liminal space where the old life doesn’t fit anymore, but the new one isn’t fully formed. For years, she lived in those in-betweens: between corporate success and a soul-led life, between “I’m fine” and a complete unraveling on a train in India, between the woman who had two strokes and the woman who finally listened when the universe whispered, “You’re still playing too small.” What has she learned? The in between is not a mistake. It’s a passage. In this episode, we&#39;ll explore: - Why your “stuck” season is not a personal failure but a sign of misalignment (you are not broken, you’re patterned) - How to tell the difference between “I’m doing it wrong” and “I’m in a transition that’s asking me to grow” - What your life can feel like on the other side of this passage If you’re the woman everyone leans on, the one who “does it all,” but inside you’re tired, over-responsible, and low-key terrified that if you stop, everything will fall apart… you are not alone. And you are not a bad person... you’re just carrying too much. This episode is your permission slip to see your in-between for what it really is: a passage into a life that feels like yours again. Book a free Alignment Activation Call In 60 minutes, we’ll: - Map where you are vs. where you want to be using my BECOME framework - Spot the patterns that are keeping you stuck (without shame, just data) - Choose one Anchor Goal that would quietly unlock progress everywhere else You’ll walk away with clarity, next steps that fit your actual life, and the felt sense that you are not broken — you’re just ready for a different way forward. https://heatherstewart.coach/talk-to-me Find Your Value: A Collection of Stories and Strategies on Finding Yourself Through Your Values   Co-Author Heather Stewart   Amazon.com – https://www.amazon.com/dp/0991925246 Amazon.ca – https://www.amazon.ca/dp/0991925246   ~ More About Illuminate Your Worth with Heather Stewart ~  Meet Your Host – Heather Stewart Transformation Guide.

The In Between Is Not A Mistake — It’s A Passage

Illuminate Your Worth with Heather Stewart  If you’re always the one who gives more, holds more, and understands more — but still feels unseen or taken for granted — this episode is for you! In this episode, I&#39;m going to unpack the trap of overgiving to earn belonging: the ways we compromise our health, energy, and integrity just to feel safe, accepted, or “chosen.” We’ll talk about why this pattern is so hard to break, especially for high-capacity, big-hearted women, and what it looks like to stop twisting yourself into an outfit that was never made for you. You’ll hear a new take on the Cinderella story: your glass slipper doesn’t need a prince to find you. You’re allowed to go out into the world and find the people and spaces that actually fit you. In This Episode, I&#39;m Talking About: - How overgiving becomes a strategy to secure love, safety, and approval - The hidden cost of always being the “reliable” one - Subtle ways you abandon yourself to keep the peace - The difference between performing for connection vs. building a true village - How to start creating belonging without betraying your body or your truth If this episode feels uncomfortably accurate and you’re ready to stop overgiving just to keep your place in people’s lives, let’s talk. Book a call with me to: Spot exactly where you’re leaking your energy Get clear on what aligned, sustainable life + business looks like for you Map out your next steps to move from self-betrayal back into self-trust You don’t have to earn your belonging.

The Trap Of Overgiving: You Don’t Have To Earn Your Belonging

Illuminate Your Worth with Heather Stewart  What if you made peace with never being done? What if instead you actually got excited about that? Let’s not chase ‘done’ in 2026... let’s chase what sets us free. What if the “work” is the adventure? In this final episode of the year, we’re flipping the script on New Year’s pressure and resolution fatigue. This is not about being &quot;done&quot; or arriving at some perfect version of yourself or your life. This is a call to fall in love with the never-ending evolution and see it not as a burden, but as the blessing it truly is. As a society, we’re conditioned to chase the finish line... to crave the arrival, the completion, the goal checked off the list. But what if the real magic lies in never being done? What if that’s where freedom lives? In this episode, we’ll explore: Why your life is not a checklist, it’s an unfolding. How discomfort is not a sign you’re doing it wrong but a portal to your next breakthrough. Why curiosity and creative play are your truest compass in 2026. How to reframe “hard work” as sacred work... the work of a life well-lived. Let this episode be your invitation into the New Year with energy, optimism, and alignment. Not because you’ve got it all figured out... but because you’re finally seeing that you don’t need to.

You’re Never Done – And Why That’s Exciting! – Heather Stewart

Illuminate Your Worth with Heather Stewart  In a season wrapped in glitter and expectation, this episode invites you into something deeper: the quiet knowing that you are already enough. Advertising tells us otherwise. Social media whispers it louder. The endless treadmill of likes, money, status, and approval keeps so many of us running toward a finish line that never seems to come. But what if the striving is the very thing that clouds our worth? What if enough isn't something you chase, but something you remember? This Christmas Eve, I’m not here to give you another thing to do. I’m here to help you pause. To let go of “more” and come home to what already is. In this episode: Why “more” is the modern lie that keeps us stuck. The real reason external validation feels addictive, and hollow. How to notice when you're on the “treadmill of not-enoughness”. A gentle invitation to feel your inherent worth, right here, right now. Let this episode be your invitation to unplug from the noise, reconnect to your core, and remember: You were never meant to earn your worth. You are the gift.

What Is Enough? – Heather Stewart

Illuminate Your Worth with Heather Stewart  &quot;This one might make you squirm a little... and that&#39;s the point.&quot; We’re talking about something that’s going to ruffle feathers today, but maybe, just maybe, that’s what’s needed. In this episode, I’m pulling the thread on what it really means to be in trauma… versus being uncomfortable. You’ve likely heard the term “trauma-informed” tossed around like confetti, but is it helping or hurting us? Is the way we’re labeling discomfort as trauma actually stunting our growth? Here’s what we dive into: Why trauma is real, but “feeling triggered” doesn’t always mean you’re traumatized. How we might be using trauma language to avoid discomfort… and growth. Why your resilience matters more than your sensitivity. How emotional maturity plays a role in your evolution. A new lens for uncomfortable experiences: what if they’re your curriculum? This episode is not a dismissal of real pain my friend, it’s an invitation. An invitation to stop self-canceling every time life gets tough and to start seeing uncomfortable moments as powerful teachers. Because the goal isn’t to avoid discomfort. The goal is to alchemize it. And yes (apologies in advance) this one might sting. It’s not wrapped in soft blankets or comfort-culture language. It’s real and meant to move you forward (as lovingly as my tough love self can) Ready to listen? Bring your curiosity and your courage!

Trauma Versus Traumatized – Heather Stewart

Illuminate Your Worth with Heather Stewart  In a world where millions may pass by unnoticed, how do we reclaim connection, belonging, and the fabric of true community? This episode dives into what it really means to create your village... even in the wilderness of a bustling city. Drawing from a deeply personal journey - from walking the close-knit villages of the UK to navigating anonymity in a city of 3 million...this episode offers a reflective yet practical guide to becoming both seeker and builder of meaningful connection. You’ll hear: A story of a village rallying for one of their own (and what it awakened for me). The shift from “surviving the city” to thriving in your own created village. The power of slowing down and becoming visible to others. Why loneliness isn’t always about who’s missing but about what’s missing. WHY THIS MATTERS (especially now!) This episode isn&#39;t just about finding your people - it&#39;s about becoming the kind of person that others can find. We explore how community isn&#39;t always found... sometimes it&#39;s built. WHAT YOU&#39;LL WALK AWAY WITH A fresh perspective on loneliness vs. intentional solitude A deeper understanding of how to design your own village, no matter your environment A calling to become more seen, more connected, and more vital to your corner of the world. After listening, take a moment to reflect: 🪞 Who are the people you already know that could be part of your village... if you let them in? 🧭 What kind of connection are you craving that you could actually create, instead of wait for? And if this episode resonates, share it with someone who might be building their own village too!

Create Your Village – Heather Stewart

Illuminate Your Worth with Heather Stewart  The Power of Solitude in a Connected World. The holidays can amplify feelings of loneliness for many, especially in a world that often mistakes solitude for isolation. In this episode, I share personal reflections and stories from a solo two-week walk in the Cotswolds and a look ahead to an upcoming silent retreat where I&#39;ll be off the grid, no tech, no talking, just being. What I have discovered so far is this: being alone doesn’t have to mean being lonely. In fact, solitude can be one of the richest places of personal connection and clarity once we know how to be with ourselves. Let’s talk about the difference between loneliness (disconnection from others) and being alone (deep connection to self), and why understanding this difference might just change how you experience this season (and yourself). In This Episode: Why solitude is not the enemy and might actually be your greatest ally. What my two-week solo walk through the English countryside taught me about connection. How loneliness isn’t about physical absence, but emotional disconnection. How to reconnect to yourself during seasons of quiet or transition. This episode is for you if: You’re feeling more alone than usual this season and wondering what it means. You crave solitude but worry it’s “too much” or misunderstood. You’re navigating a personal transition or quiet chapter and want to find meaning in the stillness. You want to deepen your connection with yourself before reaching for connection with others.

Alone Versus Lonely – Heather Stewart

Illuminate Your Worth with Heather Stewart  This is not about silver linings. This is about soul lessons. In this episode, Heather shares her personal experiences with life’s unexpected interruptions... a sudden stroke, a broken wrist on vacation, and other “bumps in the road”... and how they became sacred invitations for pause, reflection, and growth. Rather than rushing to reframe or "fix" what happened, she allowed space for the meaning to rise over time. Because sometimes, it's not about bouncing back, it's about expanding forward. From the depth of her wisdom and the emotional clarity, Heather offers a perspective that’s both gentle and galvanizing: 💡 What feels like a breakdown might actually be your breakthrough. 💡 Your emotional waves are not chaos, they’re clues. 💡 You don’t have to find the lesson right away. You just have to listen. This episode is your reminder that: Life isn’t punishing you. It’s partnering with you. The voice you find on the other side of challenge might be the most honest one you’ve ever heard. If this conversation opened something in you… share it with someone in your inner circle. That one person who would get it. The right message always finds the right ears, especially when it travels heart to heart.

Who’s Driving Your Bus – Heather Stewart

Illuminate Your Worth with Heather Stewart  You Are All the Stories You Tell About Yourself If you want something different… rewrite the script. This is not a conversation about mindset. This is a check in with your identity. We’re diving into the invisible narratives that shape how you show up, what you allow, and what you believe is possible... not just in your life, but in your business, your leadership, and your voice. Because here’s the truth: You are all the stories you keep telling about yourself. And if you&#39;re ready for something different, it&#39;s time to tell a different story. We&#39;re going to talk about how to recognize when you’ve outgrown your story and how to release it, the subtle difference between speaking from your story vs. being trapped in it and what becomes possible when you start leading from your future identity. This episode is for you if... - you&#39;re done shape-shifting and you&#39;re ready to come back to yourself - you&#39;re ready to be seen for who you actually are and not who you had to become to be accepted - you&#39;re craving realignment in how you speak and show up in life If you’re ready to go deeper: This is the kind of work I do inside my private coaching container. I help women: Unearth the story they&#39;ve been living by Recode their voice and identity around their next chapter Build a life that aligns with who they truly are, not who they had to be to survive If you&#39;re feeling the call, let&#39;s talk.

What Story Are You Telling? – Heather Stewart

Illuminate Your Worth with Heather Stewart  What if the very thing keeping you stuck isn’t outside of you… but the lens you’re looking through? In this episode, I’m going deep into a truth that has radically changed the way I move, lead, and grow: “We don’t see things as they are, we see them as we are.” When you find yourself scrolling and comparing… admiring someone else’s success… wondering if you’re doing it right... That moment isn’t about them my friend. It’s a mirror for you and it’s showing you that you’ve momentarily forgotten who the hell you are. During this show I'll walk you through how to: - Spot when comparison is clouding your vision - Shift out of “why not me?” into “watch me” - Reclaim your voice, your perspective, and your way of doing things - Understand how your gifts are actually incomparable and why your path was never meant to look like anyone else’s This is a conversation about frequency. About magic. About leading from your personal truth, not someone else’s highlight reel. This is your reminder that you are the only one who can do it your way. And the world doesn’t need another replica. It needs you.

You Only See What You See – Heather Stewart

Illuminate Your Worth with Heather Stewart  Twenty years ago, I sat in India listening to the Dalai Lama. A seed was planted and one that’s been growing ever since. In this episode, I reflect on something that he said that found me again recently while walking through the Cotswolds: Everything is impermanent... even impermanence. Let's have a conversation about energy, endings, and the idea that maybe nothing is ever truly gone—only changed. Listen in for: The story that started it all A walk, a memory, and a moment of clarity Why beginnings and endings are never quite what they seem How we can hold the mystery, not fix it This episode is for you if: You're in a season of change or release You crave deeper meaning, not quick answers You want to feel less alone in the uncertainty Share it. Reflect on it. Message me what impermanence means to you right now.

Everything Is Impermanent – Including Impermanence – Heather Stewart

Illuminate Your Worth with Heather Stewart  In this powerful and thought-provoking episode, we’re asking a question most of us don’t stop to consider: Who does worry serve? Worry is so often mistaken for responsibility, preparation, or care—but what if it’s actually keeping you stuck? Together, we unpack: Why we’re wired for negative thinking and how this once-helpful trait is now hijacked by the modern world. The sneaky ways external voices—media, social media, others’ fears—fill our minds with spiraling “what ifs.” How worry is a form of prayer—but it's often focused on what we don’t want. The illusion of safety: how worry tricks you into staying in your comfort zone, paralyzing true action and growth. A practical method for interrupting worry by walking the outcome to its end: “...and then what?” You’ll leave this episode with powerful shifts in perspective, grounded questions, and spiritual tools to realign with your highest mission and voice.

Who Does Worry Serve? – Heather Stewart

Illuminate Your Worth with Heather Stewart  So often, the world tries to convince us that we’re not enough. That we need to hustle harder, shine brighter, achieve more, or fit a certain mold in order to be lovable, successful, or worthy. But what if the truth is that you already are? In this episode, Heather invites you to step into the deep knowing that you have nothing to prove. Drawing inspiration from her life, she explores what it looks like to shine brightly without arrogance, to live fully without apology, and to love yourself enough that you can build others up too. Together, we’ll explore: 💡 The difference between shining authentically vs. seeking attention. 💡 How to recognize when you’re in the “shadow” of needing external validation. 💡 Why self-love isn’t selfish—it’s the key to becoming generous, magnetic, and free. 💡 How to stop outsourcing your worth to others and anchor it within yourself. 💡 Daily practices for returning to confidence, clarity, and joy. Big Message: You are already magnetic. You are already special. You don’t have to earn your worth... you only need to remember it.

Learning To Rest – Heather Stewart

Illuminate Your Worth with Heather Stewart  What if I told you that you are never as powerless as you think you are? Even in those moments when life feels like it’s happening to you, the truth is—you’ve still got the power. This week's episode is about remembering exactly that. We explore the sneaky ways we give our power away—whether it’s saying yes when we mean no, staying quiet to keep the peace, or outsourcing our choices to someone else’s expectations. And then we talk about how to lovingly (and unapologetically) take it back. This isn’t about being rude or harsh—it’s about boundaries, alignment, and owning your choices without guilt. Because reclaiming your power doesn’t make you difficult—it makes you free. 🎙️ Here’s what you can expect: Real talk about the choices we don’t even realize we’re making. Practical shifts that help you draw boundaries that feel good (and not mean). Gentle reminders that you’re not broken, wrong, or late—you’re human, and you’ve got options. If you’ve been waiting for a sign that it’s time to call your power back, this is it. Listen in, subscribe for weekly soul-food, and share it with a friend who could use the reminder, too.
