RAGS to RICHES to the
Real Me
Overcoming Adversity Through a Lifelong Quest for
Success and Happiness
I want to share my story with you in the hope that you can learn how to acquire wealth and happiness, create your own truth, and live your best life, just like I did. I’ve lived a full, challenging, and amazing life. If the story of my life’s journey can benefit someone or, at the very least, provide enjoyment or help to someone, then this book has been a success. I’m sharing my life-changing journey with you hoping you can both learn from my mistakes (without making them yourself) and take advantage of the Eureka! moments I had that transformed my life in so many good ways. The timeline of my story jumps around a little, however, so just know that the tale is not linear. But don’t worry, because every step along the path I walked is packed full of teachings you can apply to your own life. So, stay with me—and hang on for the ride. Thank you for considering reading the book. I wish you every success on your path from Rags to Riches.

RAGS to RICHES to the
Real Me
Have you ever woken up one day and asked yourself, “how did I get here? “This cannot be my life. This is not how I saw things panning out for me. I don't deserve this. My life doesn't seem to have any purpose.” Then, have you tried to think through how to get off the rollercoaster or treadmill that seems to have become your life? Change seems just so hard, doesn't it? You will eventually start to make excuses about lack of money, responsibilities with children, and judgment from friends and family. You start to tell yourself it's not that bad, things will get better, and that you're simply overthinking things. This sends you back to square one, back on the treadmill where you start trudging through life again. Sadly, this is not living or enjoying life; it's simply surviving.
Every time you hit rock bottom you might recognize that you are, again, in that familiar hole you've dug for yourself. You wish to have the strength to step off the treadmill of survival and onto a sparkling new road to follow that leads to far more happiness - the happiness you deserve. But, feeling defeated, destined to go through these constant ups and downs, you continue to bury the dark secrets of your past or present, hiding them from everyone so as not to be judged. Potentially, these hidden secrets are too painful or scary to address, and you want nothing more than to forget them. You may have attempted to face the pain, failed, and now think that there must be something wrong with you. However, everyone deserves happiness, forgiveness, love, and compassion, starting with yourself. Healing is possible.
Heather Walton is a self-taught expert at jumping on and off treadmills and rising from adversity. Throughout her life, she faced poverty, abuse in many forms, lack of education, struggled being a solo mum, and bankruptcy to name just a few hurdles she overcame. Throughout all of these struggles, she didn't just survive, she thrived. Walton's life mission was to change her story’s ending, and she was incredibly determined to write it on her own and make it a magnificent story of success. However, her drive to change the course of her life was also motivated by her drive to help others who had gone through or are going through struggles to do the same and live the life we all want and deserve.
In Rags to Riches to the Real Me, Heather Walton will show you that you can start over at any age and heal your life. You can rewrite your story with a happy ending. By following the 21 simple step-by-step exercises and making a daily ritual to recreate a life worth living, you can become someone that you can be proud of.
There is nothing more empowering than to look back on your struggles or trauma and know that it did not define you; they simply gave you a few scars or characteristics that made you into the strong resilient person you can become. You will feel uplifted, inspired and have a deep understanding, knowing in your heart that you CAN thrive and live your best life possible.
Settle in to hear Walton's story and how she changed her life from a life of rags to a life of riches in every sense of the word: financially, emotionally, and spiritually. Learn from her journey and then do your own deep dive to implement the exercises into your daily routine to create your own rags to riches to the real you story.
Kind Words
“I have just read the entire book!! I loved it every page, your incredible vulnerability and honesty was so precious. Our journeys have been so similar too. Although I have been unlucky never to meet Kevin...my heart just broke for you reading that. I loved the Aroha piece at the end! I can never thank you enough for being there for me and standing by me and supporting me when I really needed that the most. You really are the most precious human. I am so proud of you and what you have achieved through all that adversity. And so pleased you and Mark and James can have a life of abundance. I have read this quickly today but over the next week am going to take my time and do all of your exercises. And my business is on the market! I should have listened to my gut when I saw you a couple of years ago...but the universe kept at me until I got it! Now looking forward to moving on into a new space. Thanks for all your teachings, gorgeous girl.” xxxxx
