Meet Heidi

I’m Heidi Tacktill. For years, I worked as a learning specialist, helping children feel seen for who they are and supporting families in understanding how their kids learn and relate to the world. I loved that work. It was meaningful and heart-led. But beneath it, I carried a quiet heaviness of my own.

After college, I spent years trying to become who I thought I was supposed to be. I chased the picture of success that had been handed to me. I stayed busy, stayed distracted, and avoided being alone with myself. I didn’t feel safe in stillness. I didn’t know how to listen inward.

But the real disconnection settled in after I became a mom. I took on the role with everything I had. I became who I thought I should be, who everyone told me to be. I was checking every box, doing all the things, running on lists and responsibilities. I love a good to-do list, but nothing on it made me feel truly alive. I looked steady on the outside, but inside, I was in quiet flight. I was living outside myself.

Then I found my breath.

Breathwork gave me a way to return. It helped me feel what I had spent years avoiding. It showed me where I was holding, where I was pushing, where I had left myself behind. It reminded me what safety in the body feels like. And slowly, it taught me how to stay.

Along the way, I rediscovered a yoga practice that spoke to my soul, and I started noticing what it felt like to live in my body. To follow the quiet nudges that made me feel like me. To move through the everyday with a new kind of purpose, one shaped by a self I was beginning to know. One I chose, not one I was performing.

Healing, I’ve learned, is not about fixing. It’s about remembering who you are and allowing yourself the space to come home to that truth, layer by layer.

If you’re in a season of numbness or disconnect, if you’re longing to feel more alive and at home in your own skin, I see you. I’ve walked that road too. And I’d be honored to walk beside you.
