About James Heppner:
James’s life worked, until it didn’t. Business was strong, capital was plentiful and life seemed all he had ever dared wish it to be. Performing life vs. Living life nearly cost him his business, his investments, his children and his marriage. The never ending hyper-vigilant striving to achieve the next level of success suddenly awakened him to the deep emptiness of his current lived experience. Unable to truly celebrate and instead deeply anxious about the rawness of who he really was on the inside, he between being restless & bored, and anxious & depressed. Thankfully peace didn’t come but instead, he fell into a million tiny pieces. It forced him to build a new infrastructure grounded upon authenticity and gratitude. He made critical decisions like “his joy is not for sale” and “losses are simply disguised gifts hidden in plain sight”. He has spent the last decade designing his life of gratitude and can honestly say he has an unshakeable love with his life. Not in spite of the losses that he had to endure however rather BECAUSE of the losses that he has utilized well. Fearing Fear itself has now left him. Today he helps people ignite their vibrant energy towards life by turning towards what they really want – to courageously step towards their comforts and discomforts with curiosity and an open embrace of the goodness that lies at the core of both the win and the loss. Truth is – Real life is made up of both wins and Both were designed for the individual good – that's basic reality. Without facing and learning how to embrace losses for greater gain, one misses out. Why choose to leave 50% of life experience on the table when there is a choice to do the work so that one can have it all? Life can be good news – if we let it. Life can shine through the cracks – if we let it in. He invites you to take the ride of your life by engaging with him as your guest on your show. Together we can deliver a transformative and deeply invigorating message that meets people exactly where they are at today.
