Dynamic Women Speaker Series: Awakening the Wise Heart: Listening for Clarity, Strength, and the Guidance That Knows the Way

Last year, Regan Caruthers shared the astonishing story of being called back to Missouri, by a quiet inner prompting she has trusted since childhood — a prompting that led her to Washington before she learned she was dying. Only after emergency open heart surgery did she understand how precise that guidance had been. And when her chest began to heal and the incision formed the shape of a cross, she knew something sacred had been at work long before she realized what was happening.

This year, Regan returns with a talk that continues her story while widening the circle. She invites women into a heartfelt conversation about the ways we receive guidance — the nudges, the quiet knowings, the inner signals that often steer us toward what is right and protective even before we have words for it.

Drawing on her experience teaching at the HeartMath Institute, her over 500 hours of yoga training, her executive roles in Silicon Valley and the insights that unfolded during her recovery, Regan explores how stress affects women’s health, why so many learn to ignore their own signals, and how reconnecting with the wisdom of the heart can transform the way we navigate challenge, relationships, and everyday life.

Participants will learn:

• How to recognize the “whispers” of insight that often go unnoticed

• What happens in the body during overwhelm

• Simple ways to create calm and clarity in difficult moments

• How inner guidance becomes clearer when the heart and mind are in alignment

• Practical tools for strengthening emotional steadiness and resilience as gateways to the heart's wisdom

This talk is warm, honest, and deeply human — an invitation to slow down, breathe, and reconnect with the guidance that has been available to each of us all along.
