Reconnect with Now: Stop Living in Your Old Stories | Social Wellness - with expert guest Rachel Heslin | Ep 224
Apr 23, 2026
Are
you missing the beauty of the present because you're stuck in the
past? Rachel Heslin shares how to reconnect with the Now to create
a more compassionate and collaborative life.
In this episode of Women Connected in Wisdom, host Shannon and
co-host Melody are joined by Rachel S. Heslin, an expert with over
four decades of experience exploring the psychology of identity and
experience. Rachel is the author of Rituals of Release and
Navigating Life, and her viral TEDx talk has helped
thousands transform condemnation into compassion.
We focus on the Social Wellness dimension, looking at how our
internal "old stories" often block us from authentic connection
with others. Rachel explains how to release these narratives while
retaining the integrity of our core essence.
By practicing a "whole-self" approach to presence, we can move away
from survival-based mindsets and contribute to a more vibrant and
collaborative world. If you have felt disconnected or weighed down
by your past, this conversation offers a gentle path back to the
present moment.
Women Connected in Wisdom is a community-driven podcast that
explores the 8 Dimensions of Wellness to help you live a more
balanced, purposeful life.
