About Me

Heather Walker

Hi, I’m Heather Walker — a Maine girl at heart who spent over two decades living in New York City before eventually finding my way back home. Most people know me through different chapters of my life.

Some know me through growing up in Maine, my time in New York, some through advocacy work, some through pageantry or new relationships I have created since moving back-and others through the very real, unfiltered parts of life that I’ve chosen to speak openly about. The truth is, every chapter helped shape who I am today.

Podcast

Invisibly Unfiltered

Invisibly Unfiltered was created as an extension of everything I believe conversations should be — honest, meaningful, relatable, and real.

Invisibly Empowered Movement

Invisibly Empowered was never supposed to become a polished brand or perfectly curated movement. Honestly, it came from years of life cracking me open in ways I never expected and finally realizing that maybe the parts of ourselves we try hardest to hide are actually the parts other people need to hear about most.

This idea has lived inside me for a very long time. Back in 2017, I actually started creating something called Behind the Face. Even then, I knew I wanted to create conversations around the things people quietly carry while still showing up to life every day. The anxiety hidden behind the smile. The grief hidden behind “I’m fine.” The exhaustion, trauma, heartbreak, health struggles, loneliness, identity loss, and all the invisible battles people become experts at disguising.

Self-Care, Healing & Where Do I Even Start?

After years of trying to heal myself through books, podcasts, online courses, supplements, coaching programs, wellness trends, self-help content, and enough Amazon purchases to probably equal the price of a certified pre-owned Mercedes-Benz… I’ve learned something very important: Most people are trying to completely overhaul their lives before they’ve even asked themselves one very important question: “Am I actually ready? ” And I don’t mean ready in the motivational Pinteres

Healing Isn’t Linear and Honestly That’s Incredibly Annoying

I really thought healing was going to look a lot more glamorous than this. At one point in my life, I genuinely believed that if I worked on myself enough, read enough books, listened to enough podcasts, journaled enough, meditated enough, healed enough, eventually I would arrive at this magical destination where I became one of those incredibly calm women who wakes up peacefully at 5 AM, drinks lemon water in silence, answers every inconvenience with grace, and never gets em

Things That Actually Helped Me Regulate My Nervous System

For a long time, I didn’t even realize my nervous system was dysregulated. I just thought I was stressed, overwhelmed, emotional, exhausted… honestly I thought I was just “handling a lot.” Meanwhile my body was basically acting like I was being chased through the woods by a bear while I was simultaneously trying to answer texts, survive life, raise kids, keep everything together, and convince myself that functioning while anxious was somehow normal. The problem with survival

Miss Maine for America Strong 2026

Being crowned Miss Maine for America Strong 2026 has been one of the greatest honors of my life — not simply because of the title itself, but because of the opportunity it provides to create meaningful impact throughout Maine and beyond.

This journey represents far more than pageantry for me. It represents resilience, advocacy, growth, community, and using every experience — both beautiful and difficult — as fuel to help others feel seen, empowered, and supported.

As Miss Maine for America Strong 2026, I am proud to use my platform to advocate for mental health awareness, invisible illness and rare disease advocacy, substance abuse awareness and prevention, women’s empowerment, community connection, and compassionate leadership while encouraging others to move from surviving to thriving.
