"We are all just walking each other home." In this episode of Health, Harmony and Heather, we dive deep into the intersection of scientific precision and spiritual mystery. Host Heather welcomes Jill Brown, a former NASA research scientist and licensed pilot who traded aeronautics for the stars of a different kind: Evolutionary Astrology. Jill shares her fascinating journey from the rigorous world of NASA to becoming a professional astrologer after a profound, "goosebump-inducing" conversation with her two-year-old daughter about past lives. Together, they explore how your birth chart serves as a map for your soul’s evolution and why understanding your "South Node" can provide the grace needed to overcome lifelong stumbling blocks.

The Power of the South Node: Identifying the karmic memories, skills, and fears we bring into this lifetime. A NASA Scientist's Perspective: Why astrology was once a respected ancient science and how it bridges the gap between the physical and the mystical.

Gilded: Breaking Free from the Cage of Ambition and Perfectionism with Coach Keren Eldad

Are you climbing the ladder of success only to realize it’s leaning against the wrong wall? In this episode, Heather welcomes Coach Keren Eldad, an powerhouse executive coach for Olympic athletes, Hollywood stars, and global icons at JP Morgan and Nike. Keren is here to discuss her transformative new book, Gilded: Breaking Free from the Cage of Ambition, Perfectionism, and the Relentless Pursuit of More. Together, they pull back the curtain on the "Gilded Cage"—a life that looks shiny and successful on Instagram but feels hollow, exhausted, or even abusive on the inside. Keren shares her raw personal journey from a high-stakes C-suite life in Zurich and a "perfect" marriage to a series of traumatic awakenings that led her to her innermost truth. In this episode, we explore: The Ambition Trap: Why the relentless pursuit of "more" often leads to burnout and failure. Perfectionism as Fear: Understanding that perfectionism isn’t about high standards, but a "fancy word for fear" and a way to avoid suffering. Befriending Your Ego: How to separate yourself from your inner critic (or "Satan") and turn it into an accomplice for greatness. The Necessity of Suffering: Why there is no path to consciousness or enlightenment without embracing the struggle. Redefining Success: Shifting from "confidence" (which relies on external validation) to true self-acceptance. Whether you are a fellow "overachiever" or someone feeling the weight of societal expectations, this conversation offers a roadmap for stepping out of the cage and into a life of genuine fulfillment and harmony.

Healing Trauma Through Food: Understanding the Nervous System with Luis Mojica

How does the food we eat impact our ability to heal from trauma? In this episode of Health, Harmony and Heather, Heather sits down with somatic educator and holistic nutritionist Luis Mojica to explore the deep connection between our biology, our nervous system, and our relationship with food. Luis shares his powerful personal journey of growing up with an intersex condition in the 90s, the bullying and trauma that followed, and how he eventually discovered that his "food chatter" and binge eating were actually attempts to regulate a dysregulated nervous system. His new book Food Therapy is out now! In this episode, we discuss: The Intersex Experience: Luis opens up about his hormonal biology and the challenges of being misunderstood by the medical community as a child. Food as a Tool for Embodiment: Why food should be seen as more than just a health outcome, but as a way to process stress and trauma. The Glucose-Trauma Connection: How certain "health foods" like fruit juice or sushi can actually trigger a fight-or-flight response in a stressed body. Stimulants vs. Balancers: Learning to categorize food by how it affects your adrenals—featuring Luis’s top three "balancers". Hormonal Health for Men and Women: The impact of stress on estrogen and testosterone, and why "visceral fat" plays a role in hormonal shifts.
