There's a fundraiser tonight in St. John's, that incorporates Christmas music and bingo -- all in hopes of raising money for vulnerable seniors in our community. For more, we spoke with Kayleigh Oakley, the founder of Margaret's Santa to a Senior, and Heather Stuart, owner/operator of FuntasyNL.
When my good friend Heather joined me on the Selfish Confidence podcast, we never expected to uncover such powerful insights on personal growth and development. Heather bravely shared her journey of self-discovery, which started during her teenage years as she battled severe depression. As a wife and mother, she knew she needed to make a change, and so began her adventure into the world of personal development, eventually leading her to become a certified life coach and NLP practitioner.Together, we discussed the essential role that mindset and mental health tools play in navigating life's ups and downs. Heather revealed her experiences with depression, and how she learned to ride the waves of life by tuning into her needs in each moment to find balance. We also explored the tools and practices Heather uses to maintain her mental health and stay strong, including her podcast, Let's Taco About Bliss.Heather's story serves as a powerful reminder that with curiosity and courage, we can achieve anything. She challenged her fears to create her podcast, which focuses on the concept of bliss – not just being happy, but also learning and gaining the confidence to know who we are. Join us as we dive into Heather's journey and discover how both small daily actions and conscious effort can lead us to bliss, personal growth, and ultimately, a life we love.Connect with Heather:IG: @heatherthecoachPodcast: Let's Taco 'Bout BlissPersonality Test Suggestions:Via CharacterLove Languages16 PersonalitiesSELF(ISH) Retreat: Ready to join us in Barbados?

She shares that has always been "short and round." When her first son was about to get married, she wanted to lose weight. Her doctor prescribed diet pills, and she lost 40 pounds. However, once she stopped taking the diet pills, all the weight came back on, plus more. When her second son was getting married, she still needed to lose weight, but the diet pills were no longer available. So, Heather decided that she'd walk 6 miles every day to lose the weight. Walking this far was too much to maintain on a daily basis, and she gave up. By the time her youngest son was getting married in 2019, she decided she must do something, yet again. This time, she skipped lunch and walked 10K steps everyday. She tried this for a week, but it was very hard for her.Around this same time, her friend encouraged her to skip dinner instead of lunch. Heather researched intermittent fasting, and learned that skipping breakfast was actually a good thing! In February 2019, Heather began to wait for "tea time" (dinner) to eat. After a year of IF, she has lost around 70 pounds! Heather shares that she feels IF is an answer to prayer, she feels more "in control" of her life, and her confidence has greatly improved. One of the biggest things she's noticed is the incredible amount of energy she has now.The advice Heather would give to new IFers: "Take lots of photos from different angles."Share your intermittent fasting stories with Gin:gin@intermittentfastingstories.comFollow Gin on Twitter@gin_stephensConnect with Gin on Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Gin-Stephens-370557866639779Read Gin’s book Delay, Don’t DenyListen to Gin on the Intermittent Fasting Stories podcast:Intermittent Fasting Stories on iTunes

Dr. Heather Stuart has been fighting to reduce the stigma associated with mental illness since the late 1990s. Where, historically, studies of the stigma attached to mental illness focused on the beliefs held by the general public, Dr. Stuart has been working to describe and understand the experience of stigma from the inside — from the perspective of people who have a mental illness and their families — with the goal of reducing the stigma and ensuring that those who experience a mental illness can get the help and support they need. Dr. Stuart is the Bell Canada Mental Health and Anti-Stigma Research Chair.
