ABOUT THIS EPISODE
What happens when you become so good at being who everyone expects you to be that you lose touch with who you actually are?
In this episode of Born Without a Choice, Julie Heaton shares her journey from more than 30 years in the corporate world to a deeper calling centered on transformation, self-compassion, healing, and authenticity. Her story is about stepping beyond achievement and external expectations to reconnect with her own voice.
Julie explores what it means to stop performing and start becoming, including the inherited beliefs, childhood stories, people-pleasing patterns, and expectations that can shape how we see ourselves. She also shares her perspective on forgiveness, self-love, manifestation, and navigating major life transitions.
This conversation is an invitation to question the roles we’ve learned to play and consider what might be possible when we stop trying to become who everyone else wants us to be—and start coming home to ourselves.
