Heather N. Wilde is the founder of Hezzie Mae Publishing and co-creator of Third Coast Superior, makers of the only domestic fish sauce crafted from Lake Superior herring. A former educator turned author, speaker, and publisher, Heather empowers purpose-driven humans to share their stories and make meaningful impact by showing up as their authentic selves—some even go on to publish books.

Heather's work blends practicality with heart—whether she’s guiding someone through a vulnerable memoir or hand-labeling sauce bottles with her partner. Her brand is rooted in connection, creative courage, and truth-telling. She believes in handwritten notes, bold ideas, and that it’s never too late to become who you are.
