About this episode
Heather Thomson is an inventor, philanthropist, entrepreneur, speaker, licensed health and wellness coach and adventurer who joins me on the podcast to share her story of growing up in small-town America and ending up in the bright lights of New York City working with the likes of Jennifer Lopez, Sean Puffy Combs and Beyoncé.
I got to know about @iamheathert when I watched her in The Real Housewives of New York, the highly successful @bravotv show following the lives of Manhattan’s elite social circle. It was clear, even via the lens of an edited reality TV show that Heather is a shrewd businesswoman, incredibly fair and someone who prides themselves on being a loyal, supportive friend, which made her really interesting to watch.
In addition to her TV work Heather is a designer and has recently trained as a health and wellness coach as well as starting her own podcast In My Heart with Heather Thomson where she has interviewed a string of varied and highly accomplished guests.
In this conversation, Heather and I discuss:
- Growing up in small town America and being drawn to the bright lights of New York City.
- Working in close proximity with people like @beyonce @jlo and @diddy on their fashion labels and what she learned from the experience.
- Why no one wants to be ‘yes’d’ to death.
- How being endlessly curious has been nothing but helpful in life and her career.
- How working for @diddy made her find her drive.
- How the meaning of ‘success’ has changed for her over the years.
- How the current political situation in the US has been like ‘windex’ allowing us to see ‘clearly’.
- How failure is an essential part of any journey and makes success all that much sweeter, and much more…
