In collaboration with her daughter Summer, she co-edits the EmpowerGen column on Aboutboulder.com, shedding light on youth voices and issues while emphasizing the empowerment of the younger generation, and she coaches teens and young adults, as well as their parents, via a coaching and mentorship program called Teens and Parents on Track.

She helps steward purpose driven investment, systems change curation, pipeline development, and GenZ workplace readiness for a carefully curated and vetted set of finance professionals, corporations, ventures and families.

In her career, volunteerism, devoted motherhood, and relationships, Heidi walks her mission’s talk: manifesting a healed planet and a peaceful world by aligning global social impact with collaborative and collective action.
