Heather Parady is a mental health therapist turned creative strategist and online entrepreneur. She has hosted multiple top-ranking podcasts, conducted over 1,000 interviews, and collaborated with brands like Old Navy on impactful storytelling. She has been featured in Forbes and Pop-Sugar (no, she didn't pay for either). Passionate about helping unconventional leaders amplify their voices, Heather combines creative strategy with storytelling to empower others to scale their impact and make a big ‘ole difference in their work.

Heather has always loved diving into the weird and wonderful corners of life. A committed journaler, she writes almost every day, and each year returns to the pages of old journals, unearthing patterns and memories she might otherwise forget. Recently, while leafing through her 2019 entries, Heather rediscovered her early adventures building relationships on LinkedIn—an intention she had set and surprisingly forgotten. In a twist of fate, on the very morning she read about these efforts, she found herself in a conversation rooted in those very connections. For Heather, it’s proof of how life loops back in unexpected ways—something she finds both wild and deeply interesting.
