Stop Hiding the Hurt. Coaches Need Healing, Too (Dr. Heather Tucker)

  • Episode #161

This episode is soul triage for coaches. Dr. Heather Tucker offers grounded wisdom and a powerful invitation to rise above fear, guilt, and burnout. It’s part pep talk, part healing session—and essential for any coach who’s been quietly struggling behind the scenes.

Dr. Heather Tucker is a Business/Life Harmony Trainer and Coach. Through her company Another Level Living, Inc., she has certified over 400 life coaches and 50 communication experts.

In this episode, Melinda and Dr. Heather talk about:

  • How unhealed trauma and burnout show up in a coach’s business
  • What it means to create “soul harmony” instead of just work-life balance
  • How to model healing in front of your clients without falling apart
  • The intersection of faith, purpose, and coaching in hard seasons
  • Why your business doesn’t need you to be perfect—it needs you to be whole
  • Why healing the past is key to leading in the present
  • How to shift from “either/or” thinking to “both/and” resilience
  • What guilt really does to your nervous system—and how to release it
  • The energetic cost of not showing up fully (and how to stop hiding)
  • How to navigate loss, PTSD, and unexpected seasons without giving up
“We don’t have to have a great past to have a great future.”
