Becoming Heart Strong isn’t about what you’ve built or what broke you—it’s about who you’ve become. Hosted by Jess Lindberg, this podcast invites leaders, founders, and everyday changemakers into honest conversations about the challenges that shape us—and the strength we forge through them. These aren’t surface-level interviews. They’re vulnerable, grounded, and real. We talk about the losses, pivots, breakthroughs, and decisions that transformed not just someone’s path, but their character and lives. Because it’s not what happened to you or what you’ve accomplished that defines you—it’s who you choose to become, and what you create from the hard things. Every episode goes beyond the story to offer tools, strategies, and insights—especially from experts—to help you grow stronger in your own life. You’ll leave with not just inspiration, but practical ways to take your next step. If you’re ready to grow through what you go through, lead with heart, and live with deeper courage, this show is for you.

Think of yourself as dead. You have lived your life. Now take what’s left and live it properly.” Marcus Aurelius
In this episode, Jessica and her husband, Erik openly discuss the process they went through over the last couple of years as Erik chose to leave his corporate job of 15+ years and begin his own law practice. They discuss how our careers are so deeply intertwined with our personal lives. They also discuss how the death of Ethan and the illness of their son Bodey impact Erik’s career and their family’s choices.
Erik shares the five stages he went through to become honest with himself about the need to change and then his personal work to get to the other side.
This episode is vulnerable and transparent, offering a perspective that will encourage and equip you to make bold changes in your life.
Some key takeaways:
- Short life, do what excites you.
- Being honest and clear about what you want. Success is having a goal and working towards it each day.
- If you don’t have a goal, someone else will make one for you.
- Change is hard, but staying where we are is ultimately harder.
- The challenges in our lives are an opportunity to grow.
