You're standing at the crossroads of "comfortable" and "growth" - which path do you take? Heide Lindgren encourages us to lean into the discomfort that life throws at us and shares how her own setbacks, like a knee injury, led to discovering the undeniable power of movement and meditation. Her tales of resilience and embracing nature for mental clarity will leave you contemplating how you can incorporate these elements into your daily routine. The discussion broadens to tackle the often overlooked psychological aspects of health, as Heide unpacks how a focus on weight can distract from the real goal—cultivating habits that foster long-term well-being.
Heide began modeling at age 13, and had a successful 20+ years in the modeling world. At the age of 29, Heide went back to school and graduated from Columbia University. Soon after, she became a NASM-certified personal trainer and behavior change specialist. Our conversation dives into this transition, which is an inspiring tale of overcoming personal obstacles, including her career shift amid the pandemic. Her approach to wellness, integrating psychology with physical health, is a testament to her belief in the power of understanding one's mental state for self-empowerment. Heidi's stories and coaching strategies are not just inspiring; they're a roadmap to building confidence and resilience in ourselves.
