How much of the noise in your head is actually yours? Other people’s expectations, your own inner critic, all that second-guessing. It can get so loud that you stop trusting the one thing that’s been right there the whole time: your own heart. In this conversation, I sit down with Mary Beth Wollenschlager to explore how to get back to that inner knowing. How do you create enough space to respond instead of react? How do you give yourself some grace when you don’t get it right? And how do you make choices that actually feel right for you instead of looking outside yourself for the answer? Because sometimes the answer isn’t more thinking. Sometimes we need to quiet some of that noise so we can hear what we already know. We’re talking about the how of living from the heart, with simple practices for calmer, clearer choices and more trust in yourself. GUEST BIO Most of us already know we want to worry less, think more positively, communicate better, and enjoy our lives more—but we haven’t necessarily been shown how. As a HeartMath® Certified Mentor, I share the HOW: simple, practical ways to access and apply the intelligence of the heart. These practices changed my own life, and I now teach them to help others understand their emotions, deepen feelings such as appreciation and compassion, and make clearer, more heart-aligned choices. My values and outlook have been shaped by a lifelong curiosity about what helps us grow, heal, and live more authentically. My professional path—from accounting into body-based, intuitive, and heart-centered work—has taught me to value both the practical and the unseen, while my own experience as a recovering people-pleaser and Type A perfectionist has taught me that transformation isn’t about getting life “right.” It’s about allowing ourselves to make mistakes and recognizing that this is often how we learn. When we meet our own humanness with compassion, we create more room to forgive ourselves and others—and when we are vulnerable enough to share our authentic selves with those who have earned our trust, we open the door to deeper, more meaningful connection. I am embracing that difference by living and sharing the practices that have changed my own life. Through one-to-one work, group experiences, my weekly Living on Planet Heart zoom gatherings, and public talks shared both in person and on YouTube, I create spaces where people can slow down, reconnect with themselves, and respond to life from a calmer, clearer, more heart-centered place. I believe the changes we make within ourselves ripple outward into our relationships, our communities, and the world.
