Heather Hartman

Meet Heather Hartman - I'm passionate about helping women find confidence in who they are and what they have to offer. I specialize in helping you find your ideal client, refine your message, master essential technology, and recognize that you are fantastic AF. Together, we punch your fears of technology and visibility in the throat. I've had battles with my self-confidence throughout my entire life. Body image issues and depression held me captive and stopped me from pursuing my dreams. Being on video terrified me and I couldn't seem to even nail down what I stood for. Now, I'm determined to keep other women away from this dark place! (SISS)  Hi Heather where are you from and where are you currently spending your time?  (Heather)  I'm originally from Anchorage, AK, but I lived in the Seattle area for the last 10 years, and JUST relocated to central Florida! I spend my time on my parent's farm, and I also love traveling all over.  Maui, Paris & Cali are a few of my fave spots!  (SISS)  What was one of the hardest things that you had to go through? What advice would you give someone going through the same struggle?  (Heather)  I'd have to say one of the hardest things I've been through is getting sober. 10+ years ago, I was a bonafide junky crack head, and I lived to get high. But it was ruining my life. It was ruining my brain, my body, and my spirit. If I could give one piece of advice to ANYONE struggling with alcoholism or drug addiction, it's that there truly is a better way to live, and if you're ready to be free from the shackles of addiction, ask someone you trust for help, someone who has experience with the 12 steps. They can help you decide if you truly are one of us. Or talk to a professional in the addiction recovery field. There are MANY people who are ready and willing to help. I'm living proof.  (SISS)  Visibility and Confidence Coach #SISS Tell us more, who is @HeatherHartmanCoaching and what are you most proud of?  (Heather)  @HeatherHartmanCoaching is a badass coach for online female entrepreneurs, she is complete PERMISSION for other women in the online coaching & consulting industry to BUST thru their visibility blocks, find their voices, SPEAK up and share their gifts with the world. Having overcome the fear of being seen in the marketplace as an expert in my field, I am able to show other women that it's acceptable, encouraged, even REQUIRED to find their own flavor of badass and use it to spread love and light in the world by way of sharing their expertise, their stories and their own unique personalities. I think I'm most proud of my decision to leave corporate America after 20 years in the corporate admin/accounting industry so that I could pursue my dream of being self employed, and making a MASSIVE impact on the world. I was put on this Earth to do big thangs, and while it was scary walking away from all the security of a corporate gig, I never doubted my decision and I'll never go back!  (SISS)  One year from now what do you hope to have accomplished (business or personal)?  (Heather)  Well, in one year, I will be on my way to being a millionaire, and I'll have had my first child, and I will have helped about 100,000 women through my coaching practice. BOOM!  (SISS)  How dedicated are you to fitness?  What is your fitness goal?  On your body, what is your favorite body part and what is your least favorite?  (Heather)  I'm pretty dedicated to fitness, I wouldn't say I'm obsessed, but it's critical...my fitness goals are to feel good in my skin & clothes, be strong in my body, and be able to outrun zombies in the event of an actual zombie apocalypse (hey it could happen man!) lol! my fave part of my body is my JLO booty. yup it's pretty big for a white girl.. lol and my least fave part ehhh, I would say my thighs but I'm learning to love them lol  (SISS)  What makes you the happiest? What is fun for you?  (Heather)  Traveling and adventuring makes me happiest, putting myself into new places, where I have to connect with new faces is SUPER effin fun!  (SISS)  How do you deal with disappointment? How do you Keep Going?  (Heather)  I cry my face off (if it's really serious) then, I get back up and try again, or shift directions. It happens ALL the fkn time. I keep going because I don't know how to stop...#cantstopwontstop  #nevergiveup  (SISS)  What is your superpower?  (Heather)  I have a couple, but I think my ULTIMATE superpower is my ENERGY. I am extremely FUN & high energy (plus I give no fks) and I can raise the vibe in nearly any situation. Put me in the middle of a business conference and I'll have everyone screaming and dancing on the chairs before the first break lol! My other superpower is that I'm extremely detail oriented and organized. My "puzzle brain" works like a Tetris game lol  (SISS)  What is your weakness and what do you do to overcome it?  (Heather)  I think my weakness is overwhelming when I take too many things on...I'm learning how to overcome that by BALANCING my commitments, and staying dedicated to practicing self care in my everyday life!  (SISS)  Can you tell us four things people don’t know about you?  (Heather)  I was a stripper when I was 19.  I love to "crack clean" (SUPER neat freak, not to be confused with a germaphobe...lol).  I was certified as a diesel engine mechanic when I was 21 and I used to do oil changes & repairs on the tour buses for Princess Tours in AK and I met my husband through a high end matchmaking service in Seattle!  (SISS)  Can you tell us where else can our readers follow your daily inspiration?  (Heather)  Totes! Check out my blog at www.heatherhartman.com/blog or I can be found on my FB biz page @HeatherHartmanCoaching  (SISS)  What’s your favorite quote?  (Heather)  "Always always always believe in yourself. Because if you don't, then who will sweetie?" Marilyn Monroe <3  (Heather)  (SISS)  At Smart is so sexy we love to see women who are thriving in their career or business.  What are you most passionate about?  (Heather)  I am MOST passionate about showing other women & my clients that they DO deserve EVERYTHING they want and more.  (SISS)  Who was the most influential person in your life and why?  (Heather)  Definitely my Gramma Shirley, she always believed in me, (and still does) she encourages me, she is classy and she told me when I was young that I was going to be somebody. And I believed her & still do. LOVE you Gramma!!!  (SISS)  Where were you five years ago? What advice would you tell your five years younger self?  (Heather)  Five years ago, I was 5 years sober and looking for myself, and if I could say anything to myself from back then, it would be "Girl, stay present. Have fun & don't look back or forward. Just be in the moment, because the moment passes by so quickly!"  (SISS)  Can you take us through a typical day? From Waking up to going to bed, Can you give us a play by play of a typical day for you?  (Heather)  I wake up at 6:30am, potty/feed Weiner dogs, make bed, drink water & coffee, write and read, check the socials, do some yoga/meditation, work on my bizzz (go live, manage FB group, messaging, marketing, creating, etc...) talk with mentors/clients, chat with a friend or two, eat lots of good food (usually many nuts and often a green smoothie), do some chores (laundry/dishes etc), have feet rubbed by husband, snuggle the Weiner dogs, have more yummy food (I'm a salad Goddess, salads will never be boring in my house, lol) sit in massage chair, feed doggies dinner, shower, wash face, put healthy US made aloe based skin care on face to keep me looking in my 20's even tho I'm in my late 30's lol, potty dog and crawl into bed around 10pm after a long, fun and productive day! (WHEW, busy day! lol)  (SISS)  What is your favorite meal? What is your favorite book and/or the latest one you’ve read?  What is your favorite song?  (Heather)  My favorite meal is steak salad, home made, with homemade salad dressing and ALL the fixins...steak bits, nuts, berries, dried fruit, lots of veggies, hemp hearts, spring mix the fkn works baby! Fave book, AND the latest I've read: You Are A Badass by Jen Sincero. LOVE that woman! Fave song, right now, between Sign by DEAMN and Dinero by JLO lol - BOTH ARE BEST!  (SISS)  When do you feel the sexiest?  (Heather)  Early in the morning when I'm waking up and feeling the creative juices start to flow!  (SISS)  Is there someone on social media that inspires you and is a great follow?  (Heather)  Definitely I love @answeritsmelissa - her content is FIRE, and she's got an amazing story!  (SISS)  What does Smart is so Sexy mean to you?  (Heather)  Smart is so Sexy means to me that it's sexy to be educated, it's appealing to have brains and beauty, and our intellect can be even sharper than our looks, and that's totally okay, I think it makes you sexier when your smarts and intelligence are like a MEGA bonus on top of being beautiful. And if you think about it, intelligence makes us ALL more sexy and attractive, so it's basically relative!  (SISS)  Thank you so much Heather for sharing your story, your experience, your wisdom, your strength.  Please follow her on Instagram @HeatherHartmanCoaching
