This episode is for every woman who feels:
✨ High functioning on the outside but quietly overwhelmed on the inside
✨ Disconnected from herself after years of putting everyone else first
✨ Ready to stop coping and start truly living
✨ She knows something needs to change but does not know where to begin
Edith Chislett is a mind-body practitioner, Master NLP Practitioner, Master Hypnotherapist, and former senior communications leader at HMRC. From the outside, her career looked successful. Inside, her body was carrying the cost. Then came a heart attack, two arteries blocked at over 90%, straight from the ambulance into surgery. What followed was a complete reinvention. Edith created Heart Mind Wellbeing, inspired by the Japanese concept of Kokoro (heart-mind), to help women stop coping, start listening and come home to themselves.
