Though Heidi published her book as a yes to herself, she didn't expect how her story of 10 years of dating, 104 dates, and finding love after divorce would resonate with everyone from happily married couples to 20-somethings navigating modern dating. Heidi's message is simple but powerful: sometimes what feels like the worst luck in the world is actually setting you up for the best thing that will ever happen to you.They explore:Why karma is real, and why you have to do more than just sit on your couch and hope for the bestThe idea of "Good luck, bad luck, who knows?" and how it changes everything when life hands us setbacks Why giving to the universe what you want to get back actually works (yes, even for finding a husband)This is a conversation about hope, resilience, and trusting that our negative experiences may be exactly what needs to happen to lead us to our next "yes!" Connect with Heidi:Instagram @LoveLessons104Get her book: Love Lessons: 104 Dates and the Stories That Led Me to True LoveHer Podcast: I Love You More________________________________________________________________________________________Connect with Wendy:LinkedinInstagram: @wendy.harropFacebook: Phineas Wright HouseWebsite: Phineas Wright House PWH Farm StaysPWH Curated Experience and TravelInterested in being a guest on the show?
