In this episode, Scott and Dan Jones welcome the insightful and dynamic Heather Smith to the show. From a childhood oven-mitt story gone wrong to a deep dive into careers, purpose, and reinvention, this conversation flows from lighthearted laughs to meaningful reflections on identity and transition.
Heather shares her journey from policing to executive coaching, touching on what it’s like to be married to a California free spirit, raising a family, and stepping away from a law enforcement career after more than a decade of service. Together, the trio explores:
✨ Finding strength in unexpected places ✨ Reinvention and the courage to start again ✨ The identity shifts that come with leaving policing ✨ Why interpersonal skills matter more than “fitting the mold” ✨ Balancing career, family, and purpose
Heather’s story is one of resilience, curiosity, and courage—and a reminder that strengths aren’t always what you think they are.
