Emotionally Uncomfortable - 600: Don't Keep Your Day Job {Interview with Cathy Heller}
play

11/11/19 • 49 min

"You are enough." - Cathy Heller

Cathy Heller is a fire hose of inspiration. She’s the host of the popular podcast Don’t Keep Your Day Job, which was given the #1 spot on iTunes recommend list of shows for the New Year in 2018 and 2019.

Each week Cathy encourages thousands and thousands of listeners to find more purpose in their life and get paid to do what they love full time. She started out as a singer songwriter and first found success licensing her music to TV, Film and Ads. Quickly she became a stand out in her field and was featured in magazines like Billboard, Variety and the LA Weekly.

After making a multi six figure living with her music, Cathy started a music agency and then she began teaching other artists to grow their own careers.

Two weeks after her third daughter was born, she started her top ranked podcast. Cathy’s show has been featured in Forbes, Entrepreneur Magazine, HuffPost, the NY Times and Inc Magazine’s “top 9 podcasts”, and has over 7 million downloads. She’s been featured several times by Apple themselves and the fans are resonating with how genuine she is. Throughout the show, she has interviewed creative entrepreneurs like actress Jenna Fischer, popular blogger Seth Godin, designer Jonathan Adler, make up artist Bobbi Brown, dancer Mandy Moore, fashionista Tamara Mellon, novelist Emily Giffin, fitness expert Jillian Michaels, Starbucks’s Howard Schultz, and Gretchen Rubin to name a few.

She is a phenomenal coach for creative entrepreneurs and she’s helping people everywhere find a deeper sense of purpose and add their gifts to the world. When she’s not teaching or interviewing amazing guests for her podcast, you can find Cathy playing with her three little girls, writing her book, songwriting for tv shows and commercials, or enjoying a moment with friends.

Cathy often says “purpose is the opposite of depression” and she is truly lifting others to be the happiest version of themselves.

In this episode, Cathy and I talk about:

  • How to pursue your own dreams while being a mother
  • The power of belief
  • How to be yourself and get paid to be you

How do I do it all and have energy left over?

...I don’t. 🙃

I plan my week in alignment with how I want to feel.

I turned choosing how I want to feel into a habit.

THAT is how you attract the life you want.

THAT is how you build a Time Rich life and career.

In this kick-ass episode replay from 2022 (with 19K downloads!), I share the strategies I use to prioritize what truly matters and align my time with how I want to feel (and yes, I still use these every👏single👏day👏).

Here’s what we’re diving into:

  • How to plan your week to align with your energy and desires, not just your to-do list
  • The trap of feeling like you’re failing when balancing work, family, and personal goals, and what you need to unlearn to overcome it
  • Why following traditional pathways to “success” leads to burnout, and how to find your own way by focusing on what really matters to you

Are you holding onto an outdated identity that’s keeping you stuck?

Whether in life or business, evolving your identity is essential to staying aligned, resilient, and successful.

In this episode, I’m joined by Veronica Romney, marketing expert, visionary leader, and author of Identity Marketing, to explore the concept of identity—how it shapes us, drives us, and sometimes holds us back.

Together, we dive into:

  • Why trust—both with yourself and others—is the foundation of marketing, sales, and human connection
  • What it means to “become” rather than “achieve” in today’s fast-paced, distrusting world
  • Why consumers are more skeptical than ever—and how brands can ethically build lasting trust

This episode is a wake-up call to examine your identity, let go of what’s no longer serving you, and step into a version of yourself (and your business!) that’s aligned with your values and goals.

My guest Veronica Romney is a certified master marketer, international keynote speaker, podcast host, and author with over 17 years of experience helping elite brands transform their marketing strategies. A former Speaker and Trainer for Tony Robbins and Dean Graziosi, Chief of Staff at BossBabe, and Director of Marketing Suite Products for a $2B software company, she’s seen the marketing industry evolve from every angle. Veronica’s mission is to empower marketing teams to achieve record-breaking results while reigniting their passion for their work.

Veronica's NEW book "Identity Marketing", looks at the deeper psychological components of marketing. It's not just about your client purchasing something —it's about creating identities; give them something to be, not just something to buy.

Why do you keep doing things that NO ONE asked for?

Because you thrive on over-giving and overworking, constantly making other people’s pain your problem.

play

11/08/22 • 38 min

“My mission in life is not merely to survive, but to thrive; and to do so with some passion, some compassion, some humor, and some style.” - Maya Angelou

In this episode, Laurel shares her perspective and highlights:

  • Understanding how we can continue to embrace personal growth, despite being met with pushback in some of our relationships
  • What it means to take a stand for what you believe and perform an "act of resistance"
  • The chance to use our voices for a more compassionate style of leadership to help others thrive

Dr. Laurel Hicks, PhD is a mental health researcher at the University of Colorado, an expert in women’s mental health, community-based interventions, and intergenerational trauma. She combines both her academic and clinical experience with more holistic practices to co-create healing opportunities that support thriving. In addition to publishing book chapters, peer reviewed papers and speaking internationally, Dr. Hicks connects with community through co-facilitation of women’s circles. At the heart of her work, she believes that building community, connecting with the Divine Feminine, and sitting together in sisterhood provides deep and meaningful healing.

Wanna know what happens when you step into the unknown, surrender to your deepest fears, and discover parts of yourself you’ve long ignored?

I’m taking you behind the scenes of my first psilocybin ceremony—a solo journey that cracked open new levels of healing, self-awareness, and alignment.

If you’ve ever felt stuck despite doing all the "right" things—journaling, meditating, working hard—this episode is for you. I dive into how plant medicine revealed truths about myself, my work, and the woman I’ve become, and how it continues to shape my path forward.

Listen in as I explore:

  • The breadcrumbs of self-trust: How whispers of curiosity guide us toward our next level of healing
  • The fear of the unknown: Why surrendering control is the gateway to transformation
  • Radical self-care: Realizing that neglecting your own needs is the ultimate selfish act
  • The healing power of psilocybin: How this experience helped me feel lighter, more connected, and less triggered in daily life
  • The messy truth of growth: Why embracing life’s messiness is essential for true alignment and joy

Whether you’re curious about plant medicine or simply looking for inspiration to reconnect with yourself, this episode will leave you with practical insights and profound encouragement to lean into your own whispers.
