Heart Stormings & Common Grounds Podcast
2024 Update: While our audience remains the same, we’re doing a bit of a pivot with the podcast and making it more of an interactive group conversation platform instead of just a one-on-one interview. With this pivot, the name of the podcast has changed slightly to “Heart Stormings & Common Grounds”.
There is so much divisiveness going on in the world and the hope is to find a common ground when discussing various topics that are impacting women in today’s society – even if it’s just a mutual fondness for coffee 🙂
We don’t have to agree, but perhaps we can at least listen with an open heart to the perspective of others.
Thank you for your patience as we work through the logistics of this new format. New episodes, including live discussions will be coming out as soon as possible! If you’d like to join in on the conversation, please feel free to reach out via the heartstormings.com website or DM on IG or Facebook
We hope you will listen in, like, follow, or subscribe to our weekly episodes wherever you listen to podcasts.
Looking forward to connecting with you soon!

What is Heart Stormings?
You have already heard of the term brainstorming – sharing of ideas to solve a problem.
What many women bring to the table over and above their decades of experience during brainstorming sessions, is the emotional intelligence to also consider the affect that decisions may have on the human beings involved.
That’s where the name of the Heart Stormings Podcast comes from – multiple sessions of women sharing experiences and insights to help others discover what they truly want out of life by using their hearts and minds.
Why Now?
We have all been searching for meaning and purpose, for the feeling that our life is worth more than meeting the expectations of others.
The pressure to achieve expectations has had a significant long-term impact on the mental, emotional, and physical well-being for many women. Not “succeeding” at any one of career, relationships, family, home, community, or any other element included in the expectations of “having it all” carries with it an implication of a sense of failure.
Constant striving to achieve expectations without including the element of what feels good in their hearts, has started to show up as burnout in many women. Even more so since the pandemic started.
Women at all levels and stages of their careers are starting to realize that career “success” is not enough and will never be more important than what matters most to them….family, relationships, contributing to society and health. Every week, more and more women have been stepping away from the roles that they have spent decades to achieve and are looking for ways to live more fulfilling lives that they have defined for themselves.
Our Goals
The Heart Stormings podcast, website and social media pages have been created to provide a platform for women from all backgrounds to share experiences and insights and to provide a safe place to generate heart-centred ideas to help make sure that women don’t take a giant step backwards in participating in society and to help give a leg up to the next generations of women – daughters, granddaughters, nieces, cousins, friends, etc.
The ultimate goals are to have fun, build a community and provide support to those who need it. We’ve been forced to compete with each other for so long…. imagine what we could achieve if we instead combined our strengths and worked together?
