Profile
Name(Age): Heidi Lawson (57)

Tribe Designation:

Current Residence: Raleigh, North Carolina

Occupation: Clinical Psychologist

Claim to Fame: I have risen to the top of my field in psychology and I’m now one of the most respected professionals in my city. I’ve always felt a sense of accomplishment when I help my patients develop a more positive outlook on life.

Inspiration in Life: My husband Clyde, he was a calm and intelligent man who was taken from life too soon. He was my own psychologist when I had problems and we raised two beautiful boys together, who are both now in college.

Hobbies: Spending time with my three cats, watching The Price is Right religiously and tending to my garden.

Pet Peeves: Something that has been really getting on my nerves is being called “Boomer”. I personally have a lot of respect for today’s generation, and just to be disregarded like that is incredibly ignorant of them.

If You Could Have Three Things on an Island, What Would They Be and Why:

1) A Sudoku notepad to keep my brain occupied.

2)A watch because I lose track of time so often.

3)Toothpaste and a toothbrush to avoid bad breath.

SURVIVOR Contestant You Are Most Like: Shane Gould from the Australian Survivor version, she was a scrappy, older lady who proved her worth through her extraordinary social and strategic game.

Reason for Being on Survivor: Ever since my husband passed I’ve been focused on raising my children and my job. Now that they’re both in college, I felt like I needed to do something in my life that’ll push me more than ever before.

Why You Will Survive SURVIVOR: Both my sons were Boy Scouts growing up and have given me helpful advice before coming out here.

Why You Will Be the Sole SURVIVOR: My whole career is built on making strangers open up and discuss their problems, it should be a piece of cake to form connections and outlast everyone.
