About This Episode

“When you find your path, you must not be afraid. You need to have sufficient courage to make mistakes. Disappointment, defeat, and despair are all tools God uses to show us the way.” – Paul Coelho

From a young age, words flowed easily for Heidy De La Cruz, it was in her blood. However, it didn’t occur to her that she could be a writer, so her professional career took a different path and she became a medical coding analyst. Stories, poetry, and inspiration were ever-present for her though, and in 2019, she finally answered their call. Her years of poetry, blogging, writing, and essays had a newfound purpose and the year was a pivotal turning point in her Heidy’s life.
