In Her Voice Ep. 6: Heidi Symonds on Owning Your Superpowers

Heidi Symonds, aka The Healthy Godmother, is a Certified Integrative Nutrition Holistic Health Coach who helps people understand what it means to truly nourish themselves. Heidi knew from a very young age that she was put here on this earth to take care of people. From nutrition to self-care, Heidi creates a special kind of alchemy that goes beyond the food and becomes a sacred act of love we give ourselves each and every day.

Here are a few of the big topics we talked about:

  • How she knew from a young age that she was born to be a nourisher.

  • What it's like to be a highly sensitive person.

  • How it feels when you know you are where you are supposed to be inside of yourself.

  • Creating flow and grace in our transitions.

  • The importance of being resilient.

  • Masculine vs. Feminine Qualities and the importance of all of them.

  • Leading in the way YOU are supposed to lead.

  • Why it is critical to recognize our own superpowers.

  • Worth and it's intrinsic value that never changes.

  • What it means to nourish.

  • Heidi's amazing gratitude practice for things that have yet to come.

In Heidi's Voice:

“Each time I push outside of my comfort zone, I step into more of myself.”

“The easiest way for me to get back in alignment is through gratitude.”

“One of my superpowers is my ability to figure out the next right step of where I want to go.”

“We put so much pressure on ourselves to be everything, and it's so much work, and sometimes we just need to give ourselves permission to ask for support.”

“We are shifting into a more feminine, softer way of being.”

“Leading is about showing up.”

“We all have a light within us, and I can see your light. When I can see it in myself, I can see it in others.”

In Laura's Voice:

"The daily experience of not listening to my inner voice...was like a slow painful death I was inflicting on myself."

"Allow yourself to be surrounded by supportive people who want the very best for you."

"There are times when it's critical to be in a season of not knowing, of mystery, and be at peace with that."

"When we do the work of coming home to ourselves day after day, possibilities open up to us."
