Do you have a person in your life who is just refreshing to be with? A human who allows you to show up in whatever form you're in and leave a little more whole. A friend who meets you in the darker moments with a soft light…not one of those obnoxious lights that blinds you, more like a night light, guiding you with just enough light to see what's right ahead of you. Heidi Ochoa is kinda like that kind of light and I am confident that this episode of The Giving Gifts Podcast will be illuminate a little hope in whatever it is you're going through right now.
Heidi can be found being a light in her home with her husband Lucas (who actually may be in the top ten funniest people I've met), with her bright and just as funny daughter Lily, and of course with the king himself, Dublin. It is because of Dublin I had the gift of connecting with the Ochoa family and it is through Dublin that Heidi found a light in autism. On the side, you can catch Heidi being a bad ass professor at Saddleback College and always an advocate for voices who aren't always being heard.
