Everyone has a story to tell. How they got from point to point, the struggles they endured along the way, the person they started as and where they stand now, everyone has a story. In many cases, actors, the ones who tend to bring us so much joy have something incredible behind them. What makes it even more compelling is when they use their story to help others live a richer, fuller life. “There was a time in my life where I was super proud and then, people tell you that you’re bragging.” – Heather, (1:37)

My guest today is the one and only Heather Brooker. She’s an actor, comedian, and journalist, but most of all, she’s an overcomer and a woman with an amazing story. She’s the founder of the Motherhood in Hollywood podcast and she graciously shares her life experiences to help others navigate the challenges that fall into their path. Heather grew up in an unconventional atmosphere, but her resilience and ability to strategically lever her surroundings helped fuel the success she currently dwells in. “It feels a bit unfair to talk about her (mother) struggles in detail because she’s still alive and we have a really strained relationship.” – Heather, (12:48)

Everyone has a story, and we all have the ability to impact and play a role in them. Pull up a chair and hear the empowering message from Heather Brooker as she shares things she’s learned along the way that will help you conquer whatever is keeping you from living your best life! “You love your children obviously, but then when you get to see your own child, being a parent and going through all the things you felt as a parent, and how they navigate it, there’s a sense of pride.” – Heather, (21:43) “We’re living in a different world right now where people have access to so much information online and they’re all sharing it on TikTok and social media.” – Heather, (40:30)
