Today’s episode is like a deep breath for your soul. I’m joined by Heather Widmer, a licensed mental health counselor based in South Tampa, who brings both wisdom and warmth to the conversation around healing, identity, and emotional health.

Heather shares her journey from working in addiction recovery to specializing in trauma, attachment, and accelerated resolution therapy—all within a Christ-centered framework. Whether you’re navigating emotional healing yourself, supporting loved ones, or simply curious about what it means to thrive mentally and spiritually, this conversation is filled with truth, encouragement, and practical insight.

We chat about:

1. Why healing wounded belief systems is essential for reaching your goals
2. How your identity in Christ can transform your sense of self and purpose
3. The lasting impact of childhood emotional needs (and what to do when they resurface)
4. What it really takes to be successful in private practice
5. Why emotional health isn’t just a bonus—it’s foundational

Heather’s passion for this work is so evident, and her faith-filled perspective is both grounding and empowering. You’ll leave this episode feeling seen, supported, and inspired to do the deeper work.
