How to Create Opportunities by Listening to Your Heart, with Debi Hemmeter","description":"I talk all the time about how the pathways to wealth are always here. We just don\u2019t always see them. And by wealth, I don\u2019t only mean money. I mean loving what you do, letting your heart be full, and living a life that\u2019s true to you. This conversation is packed with evidence of how real those pathways are. I\u2019m sitting down with Debi Hemmeter, president of the Inner Mountain Foundation and co-founder of the global Lean In movement alongside Sheryl Sandberg. After 25+ years as a Fortune 50 executive at PepsiCo, Wells Fargo, and Bank of America, Debi now helps women stop chasing external noise and start leading from the inside out. She has such a beautiful, contagious energy, and she seems to create prosperity, opportunity, and joy everywhere she goes. Debi shares three stories that show how you can create opportunities you want, even when the path isn\u2019t obvious yet. Right now, with so much uncertainty and so much competing for your attention, it\u2019s easy to let the outside noise decide what you\u2019re supposed to want. So listen to this one looking for evidence for yourself. Pop in those earphones, take these lessons to heart, and let\u2019s get to it. &amp;nbsp; WHAT YOU\u2019LL LEARN  Why Debi uses \u201cthe dash between your birth and your death\u201d to decide what to do with her life How a guessed Harvard email address got a reply from Sheryl Sandberg within 30 minutes, and what Debi offered to do when they met How a vitality week in the Hamptons turned into five years helping fitness trainer Tracy Anderson build her business How Debi\u2019s daughter got the exact role she wanted at the Four Seasons when there wasn\u2019t even an open job Why outward success can still feel hollow, and the snooze-alarm signal Debi says to pay attention to What Sheryl taught Debi about resilience, and why clarity makes resilience easier Practical ways to start listening to your heart, from editing who\u2019s in your life to walking without a podcast on Why aspirational thoughts won\u2019t get you there, and what Debi says to do today instead  &amp;nbsp; DEBI\u2019S GIFT TO YOU Debi is offering a free masterclass through the Inner Mountain Foundation all about listening to your heart. It walks you through how to get there, even if you can\u2019t meditate yet.
