1275: What Happens When Your Soul Aligns With Your Life With Corey Colwell
"We should not be listening to things outside of us. Your body is telling you what you need."
In this episode, Heather and Corey Colwell explore what happens when life forces you to stop long enough to hear the messages your body has been trying to communicate all along. Through a remarkable story that begins with a coyote bite at two years old and winds through years of health challenges, motherhood, overachievement, and a profound near-death experience, this conversation invites you into the space where intuition, healing, and purpose converge. At its heart, this episode is about learning to listen, not to the endless noise outside of us, but to the wisdom already living within our bodies, our souls, and the quiet nudges that keep trying to guide us back toward alignment, vitality, and a life that feels deeply alive.
What to listen for:
☑️ How getting bitten by a coyote at two years old shaped her passion in later life
☑️ Busyness and constantly moving forward keep you from listening to my body
☑️ The near-death experience that helped Corey choose to be in this life
"When people say fighting for your life, you have to recruit everything to get alive again. And so I fought my way back from that moment."
☑️ The importance of listening to that intuitive primal knowing when it comes up
☑️ What it feels like when your soul fully aligns with your body and human experience
☑️ Why it wasn't enough to just be alive and in bed, and what helped turn things around
"I was alive, and everyone's like, 'Great, just stay in bed.' And what happened is I started to experience an intellectual and passion death because my entire why is to solve problems and innovate."
☑️ How to start answering the question of what your body actually needs to thrive
