Keep the heel, rock over onto it. Pull with your heel

Move your hands as far left as you can, move right foot as far right as possible (you probably can get it further out on the edge than you imagine), bore your right big toe in to the hold (fleeeex that calf!) and keep the tension throughout the move, slight backflag left leg. Right now you are putting yourself in an unnecessary small box, open it up.
Try to establish yourself in the end position to feel it out exactly where hands and feet needs to be.

a good cue for engaging the hip and calf is to point the little toe end of your foot as far down as you can while heeling.

Looks like you've pretty much got it.
