In this episode of Aura Room,, host Archita sits down with transformation guide Heather Stewart to unpack what it really means to trust that life is happening for you, not to you. From walking away from a fifteen-year corporate accounting career to building a life rooted in yoga, wellness and coaching, Heather shares the internal recalibrations behind her choices. She breaks down how burnout, illness, and “random” setbacks can actually act as course-corrections, if we’re willing to pay attention.
They explore why so many women stay loyal to safety over happiness, how people-pleasing keeps us stuck, and how to reframe discomfort as guidance instead of punishment. Heather also explains her “earth school” perspective, the power of curiosity when life falls apart, and practical ways to build trust in your own timing even when the current chapter feels nothing like the one you ordered.
About the Guest:
Heather Stewart is a transformation guide, yoga teacher, wellness practitioner and coach who left a high-pressure corporate accounting career to help women realign their lives from the inside out. Through her work, podcast and coaching, she supports women in shifting from burnout, over-responsibility and people-pleasing to alignment, self-worth and trust in their own timing. She blends practical lived experience with a grounded spiritual lens, helping clients see their challenges as part of a bigger, intelligent design rather than personal failure.
Key Takeaways :
Corporate “success” can quietly cost you your life force. Heather realised that trading more of her time for money and promotions was misaligned, even if it looked impressive on paper.
Discomfort often is the direction. The unease, resentment and misfit feelings you keep rationalising away are usually the first indicators that a deeper part of you is ready to move.
Other people’s reactions are about their inner stories, not your worth. When Heather left her job, some colleagues thought she was unstable or reckless. She had to let their projections be theirs and keep backing her own inner knowing.
Women are conditioned to anchor safety in caretaking. That script can create a huge disconnect between who they are and how fast life is actually trying to move them into something new.
Curiosity is a power tool in “earth school.” Instead of “Why me?”, Heather asks, “What is this teaching me?”. That shift helped her process a stroke and a broken wrist as lessons in asking for and accepting help.
Trust is a practice, not a personality trait. Heather uses the same grounded certainty she has that “the sun will rise tomorrow” and applies that feeling to situations that look uncertain, training her nervous system to believe that things will work out.
Being alone is not the same as being lonely. Creating or finding aligned community makes it safer to choose truth over approval, especially during big life pivots.
Nothing is permanent, including discomfort. Visualising life after the hard chapter can help you move through it instead of staying frozen in fear.
