In Episode Two Heather tries to recreate an experiment from her favorite podcast Armchair Expert by inviting her husband Erik to the show as her first guest. Let us know how you think it went (Dax Shepard and Kristin Bell ain't got nothing on us).
Listen in as Heather and Erik speak candidly about rest and society, theater as a platform for teaching self-compassion, the importance of trust and connection, Improv as a model for coping with uncertainty, creating mindful moments through our daily choices, nature, art, creative spaces, the power of giving and the magic of Yes, And.

End of year stress got you down? Join us next week for a mini-sode where Heather will explore her Holiday Thrive Guide and the 5 components of: saying no, creating sacred space, being present, remembering that everything is temporary (especially uncomfortable emotions), and treasuring this time as an opportunity for rest and renewal.

In Episode One we meet and learn a bit more about our host Heather Liv Melver. Who is she? Why a Podcast? Why coaching?
After a brief bio/resume share Heather begins to introduce us to her own change process and some of the tools she uses to cope (mindfulness, journaling, asking for help, etc), her trapeze metaphor for change, and why she believes there is magic in the messy middle.
In future episodes we will hear from guests who will share their own stories of transformation, change, and the magic they found when they took the time to mind the gaps between point A and point B.
To learn more about Heather and Minding the Gaps Coaching - Transformation in Transition, check out her website here: Minding the Gaps
Next Up: On Episode Two of Minding the Gaps we'll meet Heather's husband Erik who will share how he handles change and stays grounded in the present moment as a maker of art and theater and in the drama classroom with his students.
Thank you so much for being here, and until I see you again traveling mercies on your journey of change. I hope you find a little magic along the way.
