Like so many of us, she grew up striving for the perfect life – a fairy tale romance and a successful career. While working her way through the checklist of accomplishments, she found a disconnect. The person she was at home was not the person she was at work, nor even the person she IS. She was playing the role rather than participating in the life. She has found excitement in bringing her full self to every aspect of her life. Through her book, Shine Your Bright, she hopes you find the peace and courage to do the same. All too often life throws us curve balls, or we end up on autopilot ready to implode. We find ourselves burying our feelings just to keep everyone and everything around us afloat. Is it time to start to release some of the pressure and get to know yourself again? With Heather's help, you can start to remember the real you and unlock the emotions you have held too closely all this time.www.shineyourbright.comhttps://www.facebook.com/shineyourbright/https://www.instagram.com/shineyourbright/www.mhnrnetwork.com

King’s company has been built around the simple principle of “do the right thing.”In 1999, Thom’s personal passion for food and his concern over the explosion of metabolic disease led him to found Steviva Brands, now known as Icon Foods, with a mission to stem the tide of “diabesity” by providing consumers healthy alternatives to sugar. In recent years, his passion for food and optimal health have intersected with his embrace of a ketogenic (low carb, high fat) diet.
