Come and listen to our Host, Candace Gish, as she chats with inspiring guest Cindy Hyde for our "Victory Over Fear" Podcast Mini-Series.

This powerful series explores what it truly means to move forward despite uncertainty, self-doubt, and life's challenges. Through authentic conversations, personal stories, and practical wisdom, we uncover how courage is built one step at a time. Fear may be loud, but it doesn't have to have the final say.

Together, we'll discover how healing, faith, resilience, and action can help us overcome the barriers that keep us stuck. Whether you're facing a major life transition, stepping into a new opportunity, or simply learning to trust yourself again, these conversations will encourage you to embrace bravery and move confidently toward your purpose.

Join us as we celebrate the strength found in vulnerability, the growth that comes from taking risks, and the victories that happen when we choose courage over fear.

51-year-old Cindy deeply knows that real happiness and longevity come from listening to the body’s wisdom. After an impressive 27 years in leadership positions serving as a Director within a major Financial Institution she bravely chose to step away from chronic illness and burnout. The message
became undeniable when she temporarily lost her vision in one eye and her voice for multiple years.

“For too long I stayed in spaces that dimmed my light – relationships, environments, and a career misaligned with who I was becoming” Cindy explains Healing began when I cleared my space, moved my body daily and worked with a Somatic Practitioner.

Today Cindy has come full circle, showcasing the physical and emotional transformation that can come with a perfectly curated fitness plan and the support of friends and family including her two boys who she loves to move with daily. Because her healthy history has a reverence for the power of rest,
and above all listening to her body. As she says, strength comes from alignment.

In December of 2025, Cindy launched her own business, Soul State Wellness Inc. Emerging from her own healing journey she now walks a new path with steadiness and capacity bodied by a regulated nervous system and a renewed sense of purpose. Through her work she hopes to inspire others to discover that same harmony within themselves.

My advice to others is to learn about your own Nervous System, she recommends. It’s the foundation for true health and deep healing. When body mind and spirit are aligned, strength becomes soft steady and deeply sustainable from the inside out.
