About this listen

Welcome to Wandering the Wild Mess, the podcast for anyone starting over, navigating a new chapter, or rewriting their story. I’m Heather Morgan, and I’m here to help you see your life through a new lens… one that reminds you everything is unfolding exactly as it should, even when it looks like a mess.


After leaving the only home I’d ever known, moving across the country alone after my divorce, and stumbling through more plot twists than I care to admit, I found myself in a place I never expected: completely lost. Which, honestly, is the best time to be found.


This podcast is for the person in the in-between… when the old life doesn’t fit anymore, but the new one hasn’t fully arrived. It’s for anyone who’s had something they thought would last forever fall apart, and is learning to trust their path again. Because the journey is the destination — and the mess is part of the magic.


Here, you’ll find honest reflections, vulnerable moments, and mindset shifts to help you take the lessons in the mess, reframe what feels hard, and remember you’re not behind. You’re exactly where you need to be.


And if you’ve ever felt lost, this pod gets you — because I know first-hand that growth is messy. But it’s yours. And it always works out.

  • Walk Your Path, Don't Run Someone Else's
    Jan 21 2026

    Comparison is the quiet thief of joy, and this year, we are done letting it run the show.

    In this episode, I talk about why feeling “behind” is an illusion created by comparison—especially in a world obsessed with timelines, numbers, and visibility. I share a personal moment that almost stopped me from recording, along with a metaphor about walking your own path instead of running someone else’s. This episode is for anyone who’s been questioning their pace, doubting their progress, or feeling overwhelmed by where others seem to be.

    This episode is here to remind you that you are not late, not broken, and not failing. You are exactly where you’re meant to be. Our paths aren’t meant to look like anyone else’s.. and they never were.

    This will give you all the confirmation you need to know: You are not behind, and someone else’s success does not take from yours! Just keep focusing on making the hands you were dealt a winning one!

  • Reframing Your Goals To Makes Them Happen
    Jan 7 2026

    Why do New Year goals feel so motivating… and then quietly fall apart a few weeks later?

    In this episode, I break down the real reason goals fail — and it has nothing to do with laziness or lack of discipline. I walk you through the psychology of the nervous system, self-concept, and why big goals can start to feel unsafe, triggering self-sabotage and burnout when expectations exceed capacity. You’ll learn how to reframe goals into achievable, nervous-system-friendly steps, build self-trust through small wins, and become your own biggest hype person. This episode is a reminder that you’re not broken — you just need a safer path forward. Reset, reframe, and start again… without shame.

  • The Reminder You Didn't Know You Needed
    Jan 2 2026

    Let this be a reminder that your life doesn’t need to be rushed, fixed, or proven to be worthy. You can be deeply grateful for where you are and still long for more. Those two things can exist at the same time.

    This episode is about worthiness, about releasing the belief that good things “aren’t for you,” and remembering that your desires are valid because you are valid.

    If last year felt heavy, this is your permission to give yourself grace. If you’ve been waiting for the other shoe to drop, this is your invitation to choose trust instead.

    You don’t owe anyone an explanation for your timeline, your dreams, or the life you want to build.

    You matter. And this is your reminder.
