Podcasting Mentor: Better Brave

195: From Hot Mess to 100 Episodes: Heather on Mental Health, Podcasts, and Business

Season 1 Episode 195

Trigger Warning: We do discuss a depressive episode from Heather's perspective in this episode. It is done as tactfully as possible. 

I’m thrilled to welcome Heather, the host of Hot Mess Espresso, to the podcast! Heather recently celebrated 100 episodes, and she’s a passionate mental health advocate.

In this episode, we dive into:

  • 🧠 Mental health in business and podcasting: why prioritizing wellness matters and practical tips Heather uses to stay balanced.
  • ⚠️ The biggest “oops” moments when starting a podcast—and what new podcasters can avoid.
  • 🎙 Her journey launching a second podcast, Friends With(out) Benefits, with co-hosts.

Whether you’re launching a podcast, juggling entrepreneurship, or curious about balancing mental health with business, this episode is packed with honest insights and inspiration.
