Go from burned out and barely surviving to THRIVING!
YOU are the architect of your own destiny!
About
I help you go from burned out and barely surviving to THRIVING! You've just been through something that sucked the life out of you. Death, divorce, a health challenge, a career change, job loss—you thought life was going to be one way but now, that dream is gone. What now? What to do when you're so exhausted from crisis that you need someone just to remind you to breathe?
That's where I come in! I help you begin to take those first breaths, and first steps, once again.
You begin with the most simple, nurturing step:
That's where I come in! I help you begin to take those first breaths, and first steps, once again.
You begin with the most simple, nurturing step:
- I help you reset your nervous system. Calm down. Get out of survival mode.
- Make a new plan for your life, full of self-care to create a nurturing container for our work together. Now, the stage is set!
- With a rebooted nervous system & your new plan, now the work can really begin. This is where you take center stage with all the main character energy you've got! ⭐️
I'm not just another coach. I teach yoga, meditation, and Reiki. I use these tools along with my years of experience as a sober coach to help you calm down, focus, and rebuild. (Yoga Therapist in training; 800-hour certification due early 2027).
Let's talk! Start today with a complimentary discovery call so we can focus on your FIRST breakthrough! Let's shift your energy & get you back on the right track, out of survival mode and thriving!
Stop the stress response and start living again. Think of me as your teacher & guide, here to help you learn and unlearn...
To unlearn you must surrender...
Sometimes, you need someone else to see you before you can see yourself.
There are some who will sell you formulas & frameworks. That's not me.
I help you enter into a new and productive long-term relationship with yourself energetically. I'm not here to teach you just methods and academics. If only that alone worked...
I'm here to teach you how to free yourself from all your burdens & entanglements that keep you locked into a place you never asked for...
We all hold our own keys to the cage because we built it ourselves.
Being the architect of your own destiny means you stop building your cage. You turn the key in the lock and you let yourself out. You take responsibility for your healing. You can be your ticket to freedom or you can lock yourself in the cage.
What's it going to be?
If your life feels heavy and you feel unseen, unworthy, and like your gifts are unrealized...
It's time to break free.
I'm offering you an inside solution. Nothing outside of you is going to fix it. Everything you want is already inside you and you know it. You're just missing the owner's manual.
I help you find it. I help you find your way again. It's what I do as a coach who uses the tools of Yoga & Reiki. This is an energetic shift and it gets underway with our first call.

Testimonials
"Thank you for the perspective. ❤️ you always have a nugget of wisdom and a swift ass kicking for me. :) "
- Anonymous
"I'll be honest. I was skeptical about Reiki and energy work. I'm a practical person and I just wanted someone to help me get my life together after a really hard year. But Heather isn't woo-woo for the sake of it. Everything she does has a purpose, and she explains the why behind it. The Reiki session genuinely surprised me—I felt calmer than I had in months. And the coaching side? She doesn't let you hide. She asks the hard questions and holds you accountable. Best investment I've made in myself, hands down."
- K.D.
"I came to Heather stuck in survival mode after losing everything. She helped me calm down, make a plan, and actually follow through. Three months later, I don't recognize my old life—and I don't want to go back."
- M.T.
"I booked the Chakra Balancing session not really knowing what to expect. Heather made me feel completely comfortable, explained everything, and guided me through the whole experience. I felt this wave of calm I can't even describe—like my whole body finally exhaled. I cried afterward, but in a good way. I've booked three more sessions since. If you're even a little curious, just try it."

Frequently Asked Questions
Should I do a discovery call first?
Yes! Please! It's a chance to see if we're a fit for coaching, Reiki, and yoga. There's no obligation and it won't hurt my feelings if we're not a match. (I'm Gen X, we don't have feelings, trust me). 😉 If I can help you out with that first discovery call and open you up to change & transformation, even better! (Even if you don't choose me to work with).
How can I pay in Bitcoin?
I use Zaprite to send payment links that allow you to pay in Bitcoin. Let me know during your discovery call if you want to pay this way and you'll receive 10% off my services!
Where can I learn more?
I run a weekly yoga + music newsletter at: https://www.destinyarchitecture.net/
What's your training?
I've got a bunch of that training stuff! I have a 100-hour transformational life coaching certification from the Southwest Institute of the Healing Arts, 2017. I spent 4.5 years as a sober coach in the addition field. I have a double Reiki Master in Eastern & Western techniques and have practiced/studied Reiki since 2012. My 100-hour meditation certification is from Yogamu. My 200-our yoga teacher training was done from home during the pandemic at Online Yoga School. I've taught yoga in Wichita, KS, Phoenix, Arizona, and online via Nostr and Wimy.io. Outside the healing arts, I've worked in radio/TV broadcasting and tech marketing. I have a BLS from Boston University.
Are you on social media?
Yes! I'm mostly on Nostr. Username is heatherlarson and display name is MAKE SONGS LONGER. I don't talk too much about spiritual coaching, yoga, meditation, and Reiki unless it's on my own website, DestinyArchitecture.net.
I have another question, how can I contact you?

How is this different from therapy?
I have so much respect for therapists and the important work they do. Therapy helped me and I put in 10 years of effort into it. Worth every hour! But therapy often focuses on processing the past, which can keep you in the cycle of reliving what happened. If you're coming out of a crisis and you're ready to move forward, coaching gives you actionable tools and accountability to actually rebuild.
I also bring something most coaches and therapists don't: I'm a Double Reiki Master, I teach yoga and meditation, and I use these tools to reset your nervous system first. Because you can't plan a new life when your body is still stuck in survival mode.
We'll honor what you've been through, but we're always moving toward who you're becoming.
What I offer with coaching, Reiki, meditation, and yoga isn't a replacement for therapy or help with a licensed mental health professional. It can augment these services.

What if I've already tried therapy, self-help books, or other programs and nothing worked?
That actually makes sense and it doesn't mean those things were wasted. Most people who come to me have tried other things that didn't stick. The issue usually isn't the information—it's that you didn't have someone helping you calm your nervous system first, or giving you personalized support and accountability to make the changes sustainable.
You can't build a new life on a foundation of stress and survival mode. My 3-step method starts with resetting your nervous system before we even touch your plan. That's the piece most approaches skip, and it's why things haven't stuck before.

How do I know if I'm ready for this?
You're ready if you're exhausted from the crisis and you know something has to change—even if you have no idea what that looks like yet. You don't need to have it figured out. That's literally what we do together. This isn't for someone looking for a magic fix or who isn't willing to be honest with themselves and do the work. This takes work.
But if you're willing to show up, breathe, and take one step at a time? You're ready. That first step is the free discovery call.

What if my situation is really unique or complicated?
Everyone's crisis looks different—death, divorce, health challenges, job loss, career upheaval—and I've worked with people across all of these. (I spent 4.5 years working in the addiction field at a non-profit through detox, recovery, and with addicts in the legal system. I've seen many situations before, I promise. No judgment here!)
While the details are always unique, the pattern of being stuck in survival mode and needing to rebuild is universal. My approach is personalized to you, not a cookie-cutter formula. The best way to know if this fits your specific situation is to book a free discovery call so we can talk through what you're going through.

What kind of results can I expect, and how quickly?
Most clients start feeling shifts in the first couple of weeks—things like sleeping better, feeling calmer, having more clarity, or noticing their stress response isn't running the show anymore.
That's the nervous system reset kicking in.
The bigger transformation—finding your new direction, feeling like yourself again, stepping into your life with confidence—that typically unfolds over the full program (4-6 weeks in "Architect" or 12 weeks in "Mastering Life Change").
The speed depends on where you're starting and how consistently you practice what we work on together. Everyone's timeline is different, and I meet you where you're at.

What happens if I don't see results?
I'm fully invested in your transformation—that's why we check in regularly and adjust as we go. Coaching is a partnership: I bring the expertise, the tools, and the support, but you have to show up and do the work between sessions. If you're committed to the process, you will see results. And if something isn't working, we'll talk about it honestly and figure out what needs to shift. I'm not here to just nod along—I'm here to help you actually change your life. Like any relationship, you will get out of it what you put into it.
Is this really worth the investment?
I understand this is an investment, and it should be. The real question is, what is it costing you to stay stuck in survival mode? The stress on your health, your relationships, your energy, your sense of purpose—what's that worth over the next year? Five years? This isn't just paying for our sessions together. It's investing in the nervous system tools, the self-knowledge, and the transformation you'll carry with you for the rest of your life. You're not buying a program or class. You're investing in becoming the architect of your own destiny.
What's your coaching style?
I'm tough but tender. I'll hold space for exactly where you are—the grief, the exhaustion, the overwhelm—while also challenging you to grow. I'm not going to just listen and nod. I'll ask the questions you've been avoiding, call out patterns that are keeping you stuck, and push you toward the life you actually want. But I'll also celebrate every win and be right beside you through the messy middle.
My approach blends Reiki, yoga, meditation, and yoga nidra with real-talk life coaching and practical tools you can use immediately. Think of me as your teacher and guide—here to help you learn and unlearn.

What packages do you offer?
I have four offerings depending on where you are and what you need:
- Free Discovery Call – A 30-minute conversation to get clear on what's going on and whether we're a good fit. No pressure, just honest talk.
- Chakra Balancing Reiki ($88) – A full distance Reiki session to balance your energy centers, release blockages, and reset. Great as a standalone or complement to coaching.
- Become the Architect of Your Own Destiny (4-6 weeks) – My signature coaching package using the 3-step method: nervous system reset, new life plan, and guided implementation. Weekly sessions plus between-session support.
- Mastering Life Change (12 weeks) – The deeper version for those who need more time and support. Same powerful method with a longer container for bigger transformation.
How often do we meet?
We meet at least once a week via Google Meet, with check-ins between sessions. Weekly sessions keep the momentum going and give you accountability so you're making consistent progress. You also have access to me between sessions—my goal is to get back to you same day or within 24 hours.
What's included in the coaching packages?
Both the 4-6 week and 12-week packages include:
- Weekly 1-on-1 coaching sessions via Google Meet
- Personalized nervous system reset tools (yoga, Reiki, meditation, yoga nidra)
- Between-session check-ins and access to me as your coach
- Homework including journaling, worksheets, and stress-fighting practices
- Recorded sessions for you to review
- A self-care and life-rebuilding plan tailored to you
How long does the process take?
For "Become the Architect of Your Own Destiny," you have 4-6 weeks. If you're really driven, it can be done in 4 weeks, but life happens and that's okay.
For "Mastering Life Change," it's a 12-14 week commitment for those who need deeper, more sustained work. I meet you where you're at—if resetting your nervous system takes the entire first month, that's completely fine.

What if I need to reschedule a session?
Life happens—especially when you're in the middle of rebuilding. Just give me at least 24 hours notice and we'll reschedule. If something comes up last minute, we'll handle it on a case-by-case basis. That said, if rescheduling becomes a pattern, we'll talk honestly about what's going on, because that usually signals something worth exploring.
Do you work with people outside your timezone or location?
Yes! All sessions are virtual via Google Meet, so I work with clients everywhere. We'll find a time that works across time zones. I'm located in Phoenix, Arizona, where we never change our clocks.
What if I want to continue working together after my program ends?
Many clients do! We can discuss ongoing monthly coaching, moving into the 12-week program if you started with the shorter one, or booking Reiki sessions for continued energetic support. I'm here as long as it's valuable to you.
What happens if we're not a good fit?
That's exactly what the free discovery call is for. If after our conversation we both don't feel like it's the right match, I'll be completely honest with you and I hope you'll do the same. I want you working with someone who's right for your needs. If that's not me, I'm happy to point you in another direction. No pressure, ever.
What is distance Reiki and does it actually work?
Distance Reiki works the same as in-person Reiki—energy isn't limited by physical proximity. I'll guide you through the session verbally via Google Meet while you relax in the comfort of your own space. Many clients feel warmth, gentle tingling, or deep peaceful stillness. You don't even need your camera on. I'm a Double Reiki Master certified in both Eastern and Western traditions, and I've seen profound shifts happen in distance sessions.
Do I need any experience with yoga, Reiki, or meditation to work with you?
Not at all. I teach you everything from scratch and tailor it to where you are. Whether you've never sat still for a minute or you already have a practice, I meet you exactly where you're at. These aren't complicated techniques—they're simple, practical tools you can use anytime you need them.
