In this raw and relatable episode, Heather shares a powerful coaching conversation with an Elevate member facing a struggle so many creatives experience: what do you do when the people closest to you don’t support your business dreams?

When doubt, criticism, or dismissive comments come from a spouse, parent, or friend—it hurts. But what if you didn’t need their validation to keep going? Tune in for mindset shifts around approval, boundaries, and building belief in yourself—no permission required.

Show Notes: 

•  The emotional toll of not feeling understood by those closest to you
•  Why seeking approval is a losing game—and what to focus on instead
•  A coaching conversation about boundaries, compassion, and mindset
•  How trying to “fix” others can actually hinder their journey
•  Practical tools for standing firm in your business—even when others don’t get it
