Course overview

Learn to get out of your own way and bring your authenticity and purpose to life

“We are dying from overthinking. We are slowly killing ourselves by thinking about everything. Think, think, think. You can never trust the human mind anyway.” Anthony Hopkins


To other people, it may seem like:


You’re putting in a lot of work and effort.


You appear to have everything under control, and when it comes down to it, you deliver.


You’re a team player and pick up the slack when needed to make sure everyone gets ahead.


But beneath the surface, you know there is much more for you to do.


Overthinking is the primary reason thoughtful, insightful people get stuck in unfulfilled potential. It leads to burnout, stress, and a loss of work-life balance. It disconnects us from others and ourselves.


Even brilliant and innovative thinkers can become stuck in patterns of overthinking, especially when they care deeply about an idea and how it will affect others.


If you’ve felt stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from your purpose, this course will help you transform clarity into action.


WHAT YOU'LL GET OUT OF THIS COURSE


By the end of this course, you will:


Make courageous, confident decisions that move ideas forward when it counts the most.


Break free from analysis paralysis by identifying avoidance triggers and the root causes of overthinking.


Cultivate heart intelligence to make incisive, aligned decisions in moments of ambiguity.


Express your ideas with authenticity and impact to inspire action.


Become resilient to external validation so you can trust your inner voice and lead with clarity.


Build a reputation as a genuine voice of wisdom who embodies aligned action, healthy risk-taking, and effective communication.

What people are saying about a learning journey with Hema

        I’ve enjoyed a number of courses with Hema, each time I get a more expansive view of the heart space and a distinct and practical set of skills and techniques to make it “real”. I have already started seeing shifts - from knowing when I am “efforting” too much to appreciating how powerful the heart energy is in cutting across limited thinking.
Soraya

Senior leader in FinTech
        Honestly, it was the best online course program that I had. I liked the group aspect over a period of time - I actually wish it went on longer or quarterly - 10 or 12 weeks perhaps. The group was great - very open, interesting, and relevant. The extra bits like the journaling were great. A very unique approach and perspective.
Lilly

Lilly

Wellness startup founder
        Thank you for teaching me that there is more to the heart than I had previously thought; it is nothing short of a paradigm shift. While many people teach to think outside the box, you have taught me to get rid of the box. I can't wait to put what I have learnt into practice. I know I will be buzzing for the next couple of days.

        I felt a connection to Hema's every word and the flow, engagement and ease of the session was magical. Hema authentically shares from her heart, her life story and lessons learnt, connecting with everyone in the virtual room, questions and insights flowed and everyone's cup overflowed with love, connection and authenticity.
