The Rebellion of Choosing Yourself

I never imagined that when today’s guest, Heather Clohessy, and I were in high school sneaking smokes on the curb outside the cafeteria door (seriously—what were we thinking?!), that 30-something years later she’d be on a podcast I created—talking about how she turned her pain into purpose.

Heather is a transformational coach, Reiki master, and the founder of Luminous Lite, a space for self-discovery and emotional healing. After 25 years in the corporate world, a couple of sudden losses and a health scare brought her to a full stop. What came next was nothing short of an awakening.

She left her corporate career, found her way to psychosynthesis (aka “the alchemy of the self”), and built a life centered on helping others find peace, alignment, and meaning.

This conversation is raw, real, and full of heart—the kind that reminds you that healing doesn’t have to look perfect. It just has to be honest.

✨ What you’ll hear in this episode:

• The “dark night of the soul” that led Heather to rebuild her life
• How psychosynthesis and Reiki changed everything
• The surprising connection between intuition and emotional healing
• Why rebellion can sometimes look like saying, “I’m done doing what doesn’t fit.”
• And how your deepest pain can become your greatest purpose

If you’ve ever felt stuck, burned out, or ready to listen to that inner voice you’ve been ignoring, this episode will meet you right where you are.
