Welcome to Rising with Heather, the podcast for women who are done playing small and ready to rise into their most confident, unapologetic selves.

In this episode I am sharing with you a letter I write to myself. I have written letters to my future self and letters from my future self to the current version of me, but the letter that has impacted me the most was writing a letter of forgiveness to myself. Grab a piece of paper and forgive yourself.
