Stop Playing Small: From Graphic Designer to Mighty Mama (And Why Your Health Is Your Family's Heartbeat) #CareerChange19 Sep 202500:54:56

What if the key to being a better mom isn't working harder,but taking care of yourself first?

Today, meet: Moriah from Mighty Mama Coaching in Canada, who works in personal training and health coaching specificallyfor moms. She went from feeling trapped at a desk to helping moms discover that their health isn't selfish, it's the foundation their whole family needs.

 

Moriah's journey is beautifully messy and real. She studiedgraphic design, felt like she was in prison sitting at a desk all day, and had the courage to completely pivot. Through life in England, Costa Rica, and raising a toddler, she discovered her true calling: reminding moms that their health is the heartbeat of their whole family.


Key Learnings

Your Health = Your Family's Foundation

She says: "Your health isn't just your own. It's the heartbeat of your whole family." When moms prioritize their health, it creates a ripple effect that benefits everyone. You're not being selfish, you're modeling healthy habits and showing up as your best self.

Make Fitness Fun, Not a Chore

Forget intimidating gym culture. When you enjoy something,you'll actually stick with it. Moriah brings joy and playfulness to fitness because sustainable change happens when it feels good.

Start Small, Build Momentum

Don't try to transform overnight. Even one or two workoutsper week is better than nothing. Small consistent actions build the momentum that creates lasting change.

Strength Training Is Non-Negotiable

Especially after having kids. Think about being able tocatch yourself if you slip on ice at 70, or getting up from the floor without help. It's about staying strong and independent as you age.

You Don't Need a Gym

You can build strength at home with bodyweight exercises orbasic weights. Your living room works just as well as any fancy gym.

Community Changes Everything

We weren't meant to do this alone. Having people whounderstand your journey makes all the difference, whether it's fitness, career changes, or motherhood.

Stop the Comparison Game (and important one for all of us)

Stop measuring yourself against people who are 20 stepsahead. The right people will be drawn to YOUR unique approach, not the shiny object everyone else is chasing.

Trust Your Body and Heart

If something doesn't feel aligned, your career, workout routine, or life choices, then trust that feeling. It's easier to make a change now than stay uncomfortable and miserable forever.

3 Mindset Shifts That Helped This Mom Go from Graphic Designer to Purpose-Driven Entrepreneur



Your Next:

Remember: You're not doing this journey alone. Your storymatters, your struggles are valid, and your dreams are worth pursuing.

Vom Hamsterrad zur Selbstbestimmung10 Sep 202500:49:50

Heute gibt es das Intro-Preneur Special mit Nadine Krischke, Teil 1

Nadine Krischke begleitet introvertierte Frauen beim Aufbau ihres Herzensbusiness. Ihr Podcast: Intro-Preneur

Worüber sprechen wir?

Warum introvertierte Frauen anders gründen und wie der Weg raus aus dem Hamsterrad gelingt. Nadine Krischke teilt ihre Transformation von der Marketingleiterin zum authentischen Business-Coaching.

Der Ausgangspunkt liegt bei dir selbst
Was willst du? Nicht dein Umfeld, nicht Instagram-Gurus. Deine Werte, deine Vision, deine Aufgabe.

Deine Vielseitigkeit ist deine Stärke

Multi-passionate? Multi-hyphenate? Das ist kein Fehler, den du reparieren musst. Das ist dein Superpower. (yippee, ich freu mich gleich mit ;-)

Ängste sind normal, Lähmung nicht.
Zweifel und Unsicherheit gehören dazu. Immer. Problematisch wird's, wenn sie dich komplett blockieren.

  1. Gesellschaftliche Erwartungen
  2. Familienmeinungen ("Mach doch was Sicheres!")
  3. Innere Glaubenssätze ("Du bist zu sensibel fürs Business")


Frauen brauchen andere Ansätze als "Skalier schnell und nimm Tempo auf". Wir funktionieren über Sinn, Erfüllung und Verbindung – nicht primär über Geld.

Deine Prioritäten haben sich verschoben? Völlig okay. Du musst nicht von 0 auf 100 durchstarten wie mit 25. Finde dein Modell für deine Lebenssituation.

Hochsensibilität und Feinfühligkeit? Du brauchst dir keine dicke Haut zulegen. Diese Eigenschaften sind in einer KI-überschwemmten Welt gefragter denn je.

Content-Überschwemmung macht es schwerer, gehört zu werden. Aber: Menschlichkeit wird dadurch noch wertvoller. Echtsein, Verbindung, Vertrauen – das kann keine KI ersetzen.

Die Essenz und Key Takeaways:

Die drei größten Hürden für Frauen im Business-Coaching sind männliche Strategien

Als Mama neu durchstarten

Berufliche Neuorientierung für Frauen und Mütter

Deine stillen Stärken sind Business-Assets

KI verändert alles


Klingt spannend? Hör rein!

PS. heute hatte ich leider kleine Microschwierigkeiten, beim nächsten Mal wieder besser!

From Stay-at-Home Mom to Parenting Coach - Helen Zimprich's Career Change Journey23 May 202501:03:34

⁠Have you done the 90-Second Truth Quiz to Check in with Your Soul? ⁠


I just had an inspiring conversation with Helen Zimprich that I can't wait to share with you.

Originally born in Germany, Helen is a mother of three who made a successful career transition at 40+ from stay-at-home mom to certified parenting coach. Living in Lebanon for 13 years, Helen shares her journey of trusting her intuition, building confidence, and creating a growing business in just six months. It seems with the right mindset and energy - anything is possible!

The Real Message I took away from this conversation is that everything we need is already inside us. We just need to quiet the external noise and trust that inner voice. Whether it's knowing how long to breastfeed, when to start a new career, or how to guide our children - the answers are there if we're brave enough to listen.

Starting Over at 40 (And Why It's Perfect!)

Helen's story is proof that it's never too late to step into your purpose. At 40-something, she's building a business, showing up authentically on social media every single day, and making a real impact in families' lives.

If you're feeling called to something but doubting yourself, let Helen's story be your reminder that you can have everything - maybe just not all at the same time. And that's perfectly okay.

Helen was recently recognized as one of the top 100 influencers for 2025 by Global Woman Club.

Key takeaways:

  • Career change after 40: Why it's the perfect time to start over
  • Building confidence as a mother: Trusting your parenting instincts
  • Mindset and manifestation: Using these tools with children and in business
  • Social media strategy: Authentic content creation for new entrepreneurs
  • Networking for moms: Finding your target audience effectively
  • Work-life balance: Managing business growth with family responsibilities
  • Your 40s are perfect for starting a business - You have wisdom, patience, and life experience that your 20s lacked
  • Trust your parenting intuition - You have all the instincts you need; learn to listen to your inner voice over external advice
  • Consistency beats perfection - "If you don't stop, you cannot fail" - show up daily on social media and in your business
  • Authentic content connects - Write in your own voice and share your real experiences rather than using AI-generated content
  • You can have it all, just not all at once - It's okay to focus on family first and career later

The 60% Rule: Why you Self-Sabotage Your Career and How to Stop09 May 202500:18:56

Have you ever thought to yourself: Why am I not further along in my career by now? Why am I not working in that particular role I always thought I'd end up in? Why am I not working for a company that really inspires me? Why am I not leading a team yet? Why am I not where I want to be?

You're working hard, you're managing so much, especially as a mom. For your family, your household, your work – you're doing all the things, but you still feel you're not quite there yet.

In this podcast episode, I'll share:

  1. What might be sneaking in without you noticing
  2. Why waiting to feel "ready" is a trap that never ends
  3. How to recognize when you're sabotaging your own progress
  4. The 60% rule
  5. A simple 3-step plan to break out of your comfort zone
  6. What specific action you can take THIS WEEK to live more courageously


Don't wait until it's too late and look back thinking, "I wish I would have played by my own rules, I wish I would have taken that step, I wish I would have been braver." This is your movie – make it one worth remembering :)

Hugs, Mel x

Wie du aufhörst, dich selbst auszubremsen #5404 May 202500:20:00

Join the Priority List now to create your soul-aligned website and be the first to get notified when it launches!

Kennst du das Gefühl? Du stehst beruflich irgendwie auf der Stelle und fragst dich, warum du noch nicht da bist, wo du eigentlich sein willst? Du gibst alles für deine Familie, deine Kinder, im Job, zu Hause – aber irgendwas hält dich immer wieder zurück.

In dieser Folge spreche ich darüber, was viele von uns betrifft, ohne dass wir es merken: Wir bleiben einfach viel zu oft in unserer Komfortzone.


In dieser Podcastfolge erfährst du:

  1. Warum deine Komfortzone dich beruflich ausbremst
  2. Weshalb das Gefühl von "bereit sein" niemals kommt
  3. Warum Männer oft schneller vorankommen (obwohl sie nicht besser qualifiziert sind)
  4. Meinen 3-Schritte-Plan, um aus deiner Sicherheitszone auszubrechen
  5. Eine Mini-Challenge, die du DIESE WOCHE umsetzen kannst, die sofort dein Berufsleben verändert.


Ich kenne es selbst: Ich habe mich im Corporate-Umfeld oft klein gehalten, bei Meetings lieber leise daneben gesessen, neue Projekte mit Scheinwerferlicht auf mich abgelehnt. Dabei kommt das Gefühl, wirklich bereit zu sein, niemals! Selbst diesen Podcast zu beginnen, bedeutete einer meiner größten Ängste zu überwinden - in ein Mikrofon zu sprechen.

Doch das Wundervolle: Mit jedem Mal wird es einfacher.

Genau wie meine Tochter, die leidenschaftliche Turnerin, die nach zwei Wochen täglichem Üben plötzlich nicht nur den Handstand schafft, sondern sogar darüber flippen kann – unsere Kinder sind wirklich die besten Lehrer!

Bereits Mitte 20 hat mir eine Kollegin gesagt: "Es ist dein Film, du bist die Hauptfigur. Schreib das Drehbuch so, dass du begeistert bist von deinem Leben!"

Viel Spaß bei der heutigen Podcastfolge.

So vermeidest du finanzielle Probleme beim beruflichen Neustart #5324 Apr 202500:21:45

Wenn du gerade mit einem beruflichen Neustart liebäugelst aber Angst vor dem finanziellen Risiko hast, dann möchte ich dir heute ein paar Tips mit auf den Weg geben.

In dieser Folge spreche ich darüber, wie du als Mutter deinen Karrierewechsel strategisch angehen kannst, ohne dich finanziell ins Glatteis zu begeben.

Erfahre, warum viele von uns (besonders Mamas) in Jobs feststecken, die uns nicht erfüllen, und wie du mit einem klaren Plan und Selbstvertrauen deinen Weg zu mehr beruflicher Erfüllung findest - ohne finanzielle Sorgen.

Ich teile mit dir:

  • Wie du einen Mama-Karriere-Check für dich selbst durchführst
  • Warum ein finanzielles Polster dir Freiheit gibt
  • Wie Nebenprojekte dir als Brücke dienen können
  • Die Bedeutung gezielter Weiterbildung
  • Tiefgründiges Netzwerken statt oberflächlichem Small Talk
  • Warum ein Plan B dir Sicherheit gibt

Denk daran: Du fängst nicht von vorne an, sondern mit einem reichen Erfahrungsschatz! Baby Steps bringen dich weiter als du denkst, und ja - du darfst experimentieren und deinen Weg finden, auch mit Kind.

Das Leben ist ein Abenteuer - probiere dich aus und hab Spass!

  • Purpose sits next to the worst thing that's ever happened to you08 Apr 202500:15:09

    Your Purpose Lives Next to Your Pain

    Today’s episode is straight from my heart — it's inspired by a TikTok Wisdom I discovered that made me think about my purpose differently.

    It was a video by Dan Martell — author, coach, entrepreneur — and he said something I just had to share with you:

    "Purpose sits next to the very worst thing that's ever happened to you."

    Whew. I know.

    In this episode, I unpack that powerful idea — what it means to me, and how it might just help you find your higher calling, especially if you’re a mama trying to rebuild, rediscover, or explore your purpose beyond motherhood.

    I talk about:

    • How your deepest pain can become your greatest gift

    • The questions to ask yourself to uncover your purpose

    • Why becoming the person you once needed is the most powerful transformation

    • How this journey ties into the mission behind Mama What’s Next — and why supporting mothers in their careers isn’t optional, it’s essential (for all of us)

    Whether you’ve ever felt like the black sheep in your family, or you’re navigating big changes, I see you. I feel you. And I want you to know — you are not alone.

    So let's take a walk — and let’s catch up.

    And hey — if you have enjoyed this episode, don’t forget to subscribe, leave a quick review, or share this with someone who needs a little sunshine today. 💛

    Sending love,

    Melie x

    Becoming a C Student. In 3 Minutes.03 Apr 202500:11:26

    This episode I have recorded in 15 Minutes.

    The idea for it came to me in exactly 3 minutes.

    The best, most surprising, magical 3 minutes.

    At the end of the 3 minutes - I sat in my car, crying.

    I have to thank Cathy Heller for it. I recently bought a virtual retreat from Cathy for a special of 26$. It was the best 26$ I ever spent.

    The online sessions and exercises she shared were amazing.

    I felt the energy she activated in me.

    Very special.

    One of the exercises she made us do was a creative play to help us find our flow state.

    To connect to spirit.

    To be brave and create messy work.

    Because messy work means you end up doing the work. Messy work means, you actually put it out in the world.

    Which is why I really want to share this with you.

    Because I believe if you turned on the music and started creating something out of nothing for 3 minutes - who knows what would happen?

    So - you have 3 minutes.

    3 minutes to start something out of nothing. Write, sing, draw.

    I sat in my car.

    So I started to tell a story.

    Listen to my story and what happened.

    To me, it was quite magical.


    Love, Mellie

    Why Having More Fun Makes You More Successful26 Mar 202500:27:07

    In this episode, I’m diving into something that’s always been a game-changer for me—fun at work.

    In particular - Why Having More Fun Makes You More Successful.

    You know I’m all about bringing joy and meaning into everything I do, and today, I’m sharing a personal story about why fun has always been the key for me, particularly in my work.

    There’s actually some solid research backing this up! There is a straight correlation between fun and job satisfaction. A recent study looked at how adding fun to the workplace impacts job satisfaction. Turns out, it’s not just about ping-pong tables and happy hours—what really makes a difference is a friendly environment, recognition, and rewards. Basically, when employees feel valued and appreciated, they’re happier and more productive. Makes sense, right?

    I was lucky enough to work at several companies across my career where I experienced this kind of fun and recognition.

    The study surveyed people across different generations and job roles, and the results were crystal clear—when work feels enjoyable, people stick around longer and perform better. And honestly, who doesn’t want that? But, of course, it’s all about balance—workplace fun should align with company goals and be inclusive for everyone.

    So, let’s chat :)

    Wait, where did I go? #RediscoverYourself18 Mar 202500:13:55

    Motherhood - the end of personal development. Really?

    This is a question I have stumbled across myself. Many women are wondering, what comes next? What comes after I give up everything for a new little soul that enters my life?

    Yes - you will experience a major shift in identity, priorities, and values, which in turn can lead to a greater understanding of yourself. You will feel a new sense of meaning.

    Becoming a mom enriches your life and the way you grow in so many new ways that you can't even envisage yet, that you can't even grasp yet. In fact - it's a whole new way of self-discovery and self-development.

    So becoming a parent, a mother, has been my greatest gift in this life. It has given me completely new perspectives, new values, incredible courage. It has grown my inner strength, my intuition, my inner knowing and given me so much wisdom... and let's not forget the patience it is teaching me daily :) hurrah!


    Key takeaways:

    • Parenting is demanding, especially early on: Most agreed that in the first few years, life often feels like an endless cycle of work, childcare, and chores. However, as children grow older, more personal time becomes available.
    • Personal growth continues, just differently: Personal development doesn’t stop after having kids; it evolves. Parenthood itself is seen as a form of growth—teaching patience, resilience, and self-reflection.
    • Support systems matter: A supportive partner, helpful family, or financial means to hire assistance (like cleaners or babysitters) can help parents maintain personal time and pursue passions.
    • Mindset is crucial: Those who maintained a clear sense of self and set boundaries (such as making time for hobbies or friendships) found balance easier to achieve. Parenthood didn’t erase their identity; it added another layer to it.
    • Sacrifice is inevitable, but not total: Most admitted that personal passions and dreams don’t vanish, but they do require sacrifice. The consensus is that you can still pursue personal development, but it takes effort, planning, and compromise.
    • Parenting can enhance personal growth: Some said becoming a parent accelerated their personal growth, making them more patient, empathetic, and well-rounded.
    • Flexibility and adaptation are key: Over time, parents learn to adapt hobbies and interests to their new routines, often sharing them with their children.
    • Financial and emotional support make a big difference: Those who could afford help or had strong support networks found it easier to balance parenting and personal ambitions.
    • Parenthood isn’t for everyone right now: Several people emphasized that if someone isn’t ready to sacrifice some personal freedom, it might be best to wait before having children.

    This week sharing with you our newest program and explain the thing about websites versus social media: you're building a house on rented land when you rely solely on Instagram and TikTok, where algorithms can decide your visibility and less than 2% of your followers actually see your posts.

    Meanwhile, your website (if built well) can be your sales person 24/7 and your online HQ where visitors spend focused minutes (not distracted seconds) building trust with you before they buy. The magic isn't in creating the perfect website from day one - it's in building something flexible that grows with your inevitable pivots and changes, because every entrepreneur discovers that businesses evolve through trial and error, not perfection.


    So this radically different program gives you that independence and ownership, letting you update and adapt without bleeding money to developers every time you need to tweak your positioning or add a new offer, which will happen faster than you think.


    If you are ready to build now - make sure to join the list so you don't miss the launch this week, enrolment is open for 5 days.

    Big hugs x

    The Magic of Women's Circles: The Red Tent13 Mar 202500:20:55

    -Solo episode-

  • In a world where women often feel isolated or in competition, women's circles rebuild trust and sisterhood.

    Women leave feeling seen, heard, and supported—sometimes for the first time in their lives.


  • It’s 2025, and we’re more disconnected than ever. So if you find yourself needing support—a safe space—if you feel alone in your journey of womanhood and motherhood, if you wonder why your partner just doesn’t get it… you’re not alone. Your suffering doesn’t belong in the silence of your home. That is what sisterhood is for.

    Because the truth is, humans are wired for connection. We are, after all, some of the most social creatures on Earth—right up there with monkeys. And yet, somewhere along the way, modern life pulled us apart. We traded villages for nuclear families, storytelling for screen time, and deep, soul-nourishing community for the illusion of independence. But it wasn’t always this way.

    Women have always gathered. Always.

    Somewhere deep in our bones, we remember this. That’s why, even now, we crave it. We are longing for the unseen, unspoken magic of being truly witnessed.

    In these circles, women learn to own their shadows rather than let them control them. This leads to freedom, confidence, and deep self-love.

    • Many women carry unconscious patterns from their ancestors, whether it's people-pleasing, fear of using their voice, or wounds from past relationships. Shadow work helps release these patterns and create new, empowered ways of being.

    • Women who have felt disconnected from their truth—whether through societal pressure, toxic relationships, or self-doubt—find their voice again in these circles.
    • Sharing in a safe space helps them see that their experiences are valid, worthy, and important.

    Last week's magic: Tameana healing and women's shadow circles05 Mar 202500:26:33

    -Solo episode-


    Let’s say a woman joins a shadow circle because she feels stuck in life—maybe she’s lost her passion, is exhausted from work and family demands, or is carrying past heartbreak. Through ritual, sharing, and deep introspection, she begins to recognize the beliefs holding her back.

    One night, she speaks a truth she’s never said out loud—maybe about a fear of not being good enough or a past experience that shaped her. Instead of judgment, she’s met with understanding, hands reaching for hers, heart-felt hugs, and a wave of collective healing.

    By the end of the journey, she’s no longer carrying that weight alone. She feels lighter, more alive, and more connected to herself and her purpose.

    Today I take you with me to my spiritual weekend sharing a healing technique called Tameana healing and a Women's shadow circle I attended. A shadow circle where we talked about speaking the truth. A shadow circle where we did speak our truth, our fears. Took off our mask. Saw our own fears and beliefs reflected in other women's faces and actions.

    Because she is me. We are all connected. Often working through the same patterns and challenges.

    It was beautiful to recognize that.


    Love, Mellie.

    Focus on success and success will show up #confidencehack26 Feb 202500:10:32

    -Solo episode-

    Today I share with you a little tool to help you build your confidence and motivation.

    Think about it: how often do you end your day dwelling on what you didn’t get done, what went wrong, or what’s still on your to-do list? It’s such a common habit, but it’s a recipe for self-doubt.

    Today I tell you about a simple habit that has profound effects on your confidence.

    Remember, like I always say - confidence doesn’t come from big, flashy moments. It grows from small wins over time.


    enjoy enjoy!

    The moment I lost my groove (and how I got it back) #RediscoverYourself19 Feb 202500:16:44

    -Solo episode-

    You ever had that moment where you realize… you’ve completely lost your flow, your excitement, your path? Everything feels grey. It's like your life is passing your by.

    That was me a few years ago.

    Like, you wake up one day and think, “Wait, where did I go?” That was me.

    Life got busy—mama life, work, responsibilities—and somewhere along the way, I realized, I had lost myself.

    Though - can you lose something that doesn't really exist anymore?

    That's the other thing. We change.

    But here’s something else—losing your groove doesn’t mean it’s gone. I was in there somewhere. I just felt stuck. (gosh that word is so over-used)

    I had to figure out how to get back to the new me.

    So in this episode, we’re talking about what it means to lose track of who you are and what's important to you, how to recognize it, and most importantly—how to get it back. Because trust me, it’s totally possible.

    I had so much fun writing this feature, as it's totally ME. 100% So enjoy enjoy!

    Over-performing in the supermarket #Rediscovery12 Feb 202500:17:11

    Why Are We Over-performing at the Checkout? Rediscovering Yourself Beyond the Mental Load


    In this episode, we unpack a moment of clarity (my clarity): standing in line at the supermarket, sick and moving slower than usual, I noticed how ingrained my habit of overperforming is – even at the checkout. From rushing to pack bags faster than the cashier to preemptively grabbing my card to avoid holding anyone up, it’s a pattern that reflects a deeper truth.

    Why do so many of us – especially mothers – feel the need to overcompensate in every area of life? How much of this stems from losing touch with who we are and carrying the invisible mental load of always being “on”? Together, we’ll explore how to slow down, let go of the need to overperform, and rediscover the self we’ve lost amidst the chaos of motherhood and societal expectations.

    Why women often hesitate to take risks in their careers – and how to change it05 Feb 202500:09:11

    I passed up chances to showcase my work because the fear of being judged felt bigger than the opportunity itself.

    Has this happened to you before?

    There were times I even told myself, this is perfectly fine - I am more comfortable working behind the scenes.

    When in fact, deep down I knew I was just scared.

    Today’s 5-minute career hack, we’re diving into why women often hesitate to take risks in their careers – and how to start shifting that mindset.

    Tune in and take the next step toward rediscovering yourself, Mama.

Und über die Schwierigkeiten der Kriegsgeneration und den Umgang mit Trauer und Schuldgefühlen, sowie die spirituelle Verbindung zu Seelen.


    Maria teilt ehrlich, wie sie als Trauer- und Hochzeitsrednerin mit intensiven Emotionen umgeht, warum Neugier und Empathie in ihrem Beruf essenziell sind – und warum wir lernen müssen, Gegensätze im Leben auszuhalten.

    Liebe und Abschied: Wie echte Worte unser Leben berühren –Maria Lindner, Corporate Karriere zur Hochzeitsrednerin & Trauerrednerin #MomCareerChange22 Jan 202500:43:14

    Was haben die schönsten und die schwersten Momente unseres Lebens gemeinsam? Sie werden durch Worte und Bilder unvergesslich. In dieser Folge spreche ich mit Maria Lindner, einer freien Rednerin aus Leipzig, die Menschen auf ihrem Weg von der Liebe bis zum Abschied begleitet. Wir tauchen ein in ihre Welt, in der Emotionen und ein Gespür für tiefe Gefühle und Worte sowie die Kraft der Stimme den Unterschied machen - und wie Maria es schafft in Momenten der Freude und des Verlusts Menschen zu berühren.


    Maria und ich sprechen über die faszinierende Welt des öffentlichen Redens – von der Kraft der Stimme bis hin zu den emotionalen Herausforderungen, die diese Arbeit mit sich bringt. Sie teilt ihre Reise mit uns, wie sie diesen Beruf nach einer Corporate Karriere für sich entdeckt hat, was ihn so besonders macht, und wie sie Familie und Karriere miteinander in Einklang bringt.


    Es war ein wundervoll inspirierendes Gespräch, und ein langes dazu. Weil Maria so eine schöne Stimme hat und ich ihr ewig zuhören könnte. Deshalb habe ich die Episode auch in 2 Teile separiert – also, hol dir einen Kaffee, mach’s dir gemütlich, und lass uns gemeinsam eintauchen in diesen spannenden, sinngebenden Beruf.


    Viel Spaß beim Zuhören!

     

    Love, Melie.

    Remember you're wild with Chris Maddox27 Aug 202501:00:19

    This is a conversation about the divine feminine rising and our mother energy

    and easily one of the most beautiful conversations I recently had when I was lucky enough to talk with Chris Maddox, founder of the Wild Woman Project, and honestly, I'm still getting goosebumps, when I listened to it now.

    Chris never planned to create this global movement. She wasjust this young actress in New York City doing a project called "The Vagina Monologues" when she stumbled into her first women's circle.

    The amazing part is, it only started with 'One vision of golden circles of light' scattered across the world later, and she's now trained hundreds of women in 26 countries to lead their own circles.

    We talked about:

    The power of speaking your truth out loud with other women (I can tell you - it's amazing, I just did it with total strangers and have been to a women's truth gathering circle myself recently here in Mallorca and Chris put into words exactly what I experienced) When you sit in that circle and share your deepest fears with women that you don't know, essentially, there's something so magical in this whole experience.

    It looks so simple from the outside, but you walk away from this experience so strengthened inside. It has really touched me like to my core. Chris says it perfectly: when you speak from your heart in circle and it's witnessed, "it fortifies it in a way that's different than your own personal practice." Those passing pieces of guidance that come through? They become real, tangible, life changing.

    We talk about her beautiful path from actress to women's circle leader.

    If you're one of those women, you know, like the seekers, where you're standing at the edge of becoming and sometimes you just can't really grasp the thing just yet. Like you know that there's something there, that something is calling you, but you're not quite there yet... Chris has the most beautiful advice. 

    She talks about cultivating that conscious relationship between your mind and your inner guidance system. "Things take the time they take," she says, quoting Mary Oliver. But while you're being patient with the process, gather the clues. Notice what lights you up, what moves you, what you keep being drawn to.

    #MomCareerChange: Von Corporate zur Selbstständigkeit: Wie Mama Margit innere Stärke & berufliche Freiheit nach 50 fand28 Nov 202400:36:38

    Ein wundervoll ehrliches Gespräch für alle Mütter, die sich neu entdecken, neu definieren und sich für ihre Karriere und Arbeit mehr Sinn, Purpose und Leidenschaft wünschen. Wir sprechen auch über den unglaublich wichtigen Weg dazu sich ehrlich und mutig selbst anzunehmen, mit all seinen Facetten und authenthisch und ehrlich unseren eigenen Weg zu gehen - denn das ist für viele von uns nicht einfach.

    In dieser inspirierenden Folge spreche ich mit Margit Weinert, die nach einer interessanten Corporate Karriere nach 30 Jahren den mutigen Schritt in die Selbstständigkeit wagte. Bei der Lufthansa vom Check-in zur Führungskraft - eine beeindruckende Karriere. Wir reflektieren über die Herausforderungen, die das Muttersein mit einer Karriere auf Top-Level bei einem Unternehmen wie Lufthansa verbindet, und wie sie es geschafft hat, innere Sicherheit zu finden und sich beruflich neu zu erfinden.

    Margit teilt ihre Einsichten als Coach und Mutter mit mir: 

    • Vereinbarkeit: Wie sie gelernt hat, berufliche und familiäre Prioritäten zu vereinbaren.
    • Die Bedeutung von Selbstbewusstsein und Identität, insbesondere nach einer langen Karriere.
    • Ihre Sicht auf Altersdiskriminierung und die Möglichkeiten eines Neuanfangs für Frauen in der Arbeitswelt.

    Key takeaways

    • Margit betont die Wichtigkeit der inneren Sicherheit.
    • Die Vereinbarkeit von Familie und Beruf ist eine Herausforderung.
    • Ein akademischer Abschluss kann Türen öffnen.
    • Frauen über 50 haben es in der Karriere oft schwerer.
    • Margit hat durch ihr Masterstudium viel gewonnen.
    • Die richtige Zeit für Veränderungen ist entscheidend. Altersdiskriminierung ist ein reales Problem in der Karriere.
    • Frauen können auch nach 50 Jahren neue Wege gehen.
    • Ein starkes Netzwerk ist entscheidend für den beruflichen Erfolg.
    • Der Abschied von einer langen Karriere kann emotional herausfordernd sein.
    • Coaching kann Frauen helfen, ihre Identität zu finden.
    • Frauen neigen dazu, ihre eigenen Bedürfnisse zurückzustellen.
    • Es ist wichtig, die eigene Sauerstoffmaske zuerst aufzusetzen.
    • Empathie ist eine Stärke, die Frauen in der Karriere nutzen können.

    Wir sprechen über ihre bewusste Entscheidung, ihre beruflichen Werte neu zu definieren, und wie sie ihre Kinder zu selbstbewussten Individuen erzogen hat. Ein wundervoll ehrliches Gespräch für alle Mütter, die sich neu entdecken, neu definieren und sich für ihre Karriere und Arbeit mehr Sinn, Purpose und Leidenschaft wünschen.

    Ich bin arbeitslos13 Nov 202400:30:22

    Ehrlichkeit und Authentizität zahlen sich aus. 

    In dieser Episode erkunde ich mit Recruiterin Sarah Ann Johnson die kraftvolle Rolle von Authentizität und Offenheit auf dem beruflichen Weg. Sarah teilt, wie ein ehrlicher LinkedIn-Post, in dem sie über Fehlentscheidungen und ihre eigene Arbeitslosigkeit sprach, eine überraschende Welle an Unterstützung und Jobmöglichkeiten auslöste. Wir sprechen über die Angst, als gescheitert wahrgenommen zu werden, und warum gerade die Verletzlichkeit uns stärken kann. Sie erzählt, wie sie ihren Weg zu einem erfüllenderen Job gefunden hat und was wir alle daraus lernen können, wenn wir uns authentisch und ungeschönt zeigen.

    Auch wenn der Sound ab und zu etwas holprig ist – die Technik wollte diesmal nicht so richtig mitspielen -  hoffe ich dennoch, dass ihr euch ein paar hilfreiche Anregungen mitnehmen könnt, sei es für eigene Erfolge, Misserfolge oder die nächste Entscheidung auf eurem beruflichen Weg.

    Enjoy & Viel Spaß beim Zuhören!

    Autonomie, gesunde Aggressionen bei Kindern als Schlüssel zu deiner inneren Freiheit - mit Psychotherapeutin Jana Kuderna23 Oct 202400:32:50

    Dein Kind fordert immer mehr Eigenständigkeit, und du fühlst dich manchmal an deine Grenzen gebracht? Heute sprechen wir darüber, warum diese Phase nicht nur für dein Kind entscheidend ist, sondern auch eine unglaubliche Chance für dein eigenes Wachstum birgt.

    In dieser Folge von Mama, What’s Next? habe ich die großartige Jana Kuderna zu Gast, eine erfahrene Psychotherapeutin für Kinder und Jugendliche. Gemeinsam tauchen wir in die herausfordernde Phase der kindlichen Autonomieentwicklung ein – eine Zeit, die sowohl für Mütter als auch für Kinder spannend und intensiv ist. Jana erklärt, wie die kindliche Seele unermüdlich nach Eigenständigkeit strebt und warum es für Mütter so wichtig ist, in dieser Phase ihre eigenen ungelösten Themen zu erkennen.

    Wir sprechen darüber, wie gesunde Aggressionen bei Kindern ein Zeichen von psychischer Entwicklung sind und wie Mütter, die sich getriggert fühlen, dies als Chance zur eigenen inneren Befreiung nutzen können. Jana zeigt auf, dass der Weg zur Selbstbestimmung der Mutter der Schlüssel zu einer gesunden Mutter-Kind-Beziehung und zur Förderung der kindlichen Eigenständigkeit ist.

    In diesem inspirierenden Gespräch erfährst du, wie du als Mama den Abnabelungsprozess deines Kindes als Möglichkeit für dein persönliches Wachstum nutzen kannst – und wie dies die Basis für eine stärkere und klarere Bindung schafft.

    Freu dich auf ein tiefgehendes Gespräch voller wertvoller Einsichten und praktischer Tipps!

    Themen:

    • Autonomiephase: Was passiert mit unseren Kindern und wie gehen wir als Mamas damit um?
    • Gesunde Aggressionen: Warum sie wichtig sind und wie sie unsere Kinder in die Eigenständigkeit führen.
    • Triggerpunkte bei Müttern: Wie ungelöste Themen aus der eigenen Kindheit uns beeinflussen.
    • Wie wir als Mütter durch die Erziehung unserer Kinder innerlich wachsen können.

    If you don't advocate for yourself, nobody else will | Personal Branding with Daniela Sarmiento Part 116 Oct 202400:31:40

    In todays episode I speak with Executive Career Coach and Personal Branding Expert Daniela Sarmiento from Barcelona who shares with me why personal branding becomes increasingly important in todays world. 

    Daniela shares her experience in transitioning from working as a recruiter and headhunter to starting her own personal branding and image consulting business. She speaks about helping professionals, particularly those in leadership roles, stand out by improving how they communicate, not just in their CVs but also in person. It's about making sure their personality, leadership, and values shine through in interviews and conversations.

    We explore the challenges women face in the workplace, including self-doubt and the need for mentorship. The discussion highlights the necessity of authenticity, negotiation skills, and the impact of executive presence.

    We also discuss the importance of building a personal brand, especially for introverts who might find it challenging to stand out. She offers guidance on how women can craft a strong personal image that reflects not only skills but also presence and personality. We touch on networking, self-presentation, and the ongoing process of personal transformation, encouraging people to take control of their professional narrative. Often, people are so used to their roles that they forget to showcase their unique strengths, which is crucial for career growth.

    Talking points are: 

    • The importance of having a personal brand message
    • Why you need to have a career portfolio defined
    • Ways to exude executive presence to attract more leadership opportunities 
    • Self-doubt often holds individuals back from achieving their goals.
    • Networking and mentorship are crucial for professional growth.
    • Women often face unique challenges in the workplace.
    • Negotiating work-life balance is vital for personal well-being

    dear mama, it's okay to change your mind. founders f*ckups09 Oct 202400:23:06

    Your decisions are only as good as the information you have. As your information changes, so should your decisions. 

    New data = new decisions.

    At one point in my career I approached an Australian beauty media company to create a joint venture and launch their business in Europe. I partnered with a very close friend. Which made matters even worse when I started to realize that this is not the right path for me. It became my biggest founders f*kk up. Lots of money down the drain and a very close friendship ruined.  

    So why did I no longer want to do it?

    I realized the legal setup was increasingly unideal for me. 

    I learnt that my friend and I were not suited for the roles we were meant to take on.

    I learnt that what I was meant to do going forward in the business did not bring me joy.

    So in essence - I learnt A LOT.

    About myself.

    About friendships and work partnerships.

    About strengths in work and business.

    About fluffy ideas and the reality of founding a company. 

    I hope you enjoy the conversation.. with myself.

    How Lia de Feo turned her emotional journey of IVF, surrogacy, and loss into her purpose02 Oct 202401:02:00

    A journey of pain to purpose

    Imagine battling the heartache of infertility, navigating the complexities of IVF treatments, and lastly trusting someone else to carry your hopes for a family.

    Now imagine losing it all. Twice.

    This episode takes you deep into the raw, emotional journey of IVF, surrogacy, loss and grief.

    Hear how Lia struggled to balance her high-pressure career as an executive with fertility treatments and how she moved through unimaginable heartbreak into hope—and why the conversation around workplace support, surrogacy, and IVF is more urgent than ever.

    In todays episode of Mama, what's next? Lia de Feo shares her deeply personal journey through motherhood, fertility challenges, and the heartbreaking loss of her two children. She discusses the importance of self-advocacy in healthcare, and the importance of intuition when it comes to our own bodies. We talk about the complexities of surrogacy, and the emotional rollercoaster of IVF that many women have to go through. Lia talks about the need for support and understanding for those navigating similar paths and shares her mission to help others through their struggles.

    Ultimately, she reflects on how her own grief and heartbreaking experiences have moved her to connect even deeper with spirituality and explore what deeper meaning her journey could have. Ultimately asking herself the question: can I make something positive, out of my pain? This then led her to advocate for womens reproductive rights in New York and now she work on a book about her own journey and the history of reproductive rights.

    Know where you're heading20 Aug 202500:13:35

    What I've been doing every morning..

    I wake up and before I even get out of bed, I meditate for 10-15 minutes while my daughter is asleep. I put on my headphones and use a Joe Dispenza meditation. Then after I drop her at school, I come home, make breakfast and coffee, and I sit down for just 10 minutes to journal (I really do! before I start anything else)

    Here is something I started doing in August

    It's a little thing I borrowed from Brian Tracey.

    Every single morning, I write down my 10 most important goals like they've already happened. I write them in present tense, with so much gratitude, as if I'm already living them. And I don't look at what I wrote the day before. That's the trick.. then the magic happens.

    Have a listen, this exercise helped me not just realize what is most important to me currently, it also makes me feel grateful and more confident and supported every morning.

    Highly recommend!!

Join the priority list at MamaWhat'sNext.com/join if building your online presence feels like one of those goals that keeps showing up and you're finally ready to move out of research and into building supported by an amazing group of women.

    From People Pleasing to Powerful Presence: Comedy as a Journey of Self-Acceptance with Fady Kassab, Part 211 Sep 202400:34:03

    In the 2nd part of our interview, I chat with Fady Kassab, a Sydney-based comedian and creative director with roots in Lebanon. Fady was winner of Australia's RAW Comedy in 2019, shares his journey from the creative industry to the comedy scene, offering a unique perspective on life, identity, and personal growth. Fady also has two kids who lived with him full-time until recently, making him a great example of diving into his true self and exploring his unique true career path while raising kids. 

    In this episode, we dive into the intersection of comedy and people-pleasing, exploring what it truly takes to get on stage and make people laugh — and not everyone will laugh. Fady shares his experience with overcoming the urge to please everyone, the pressure of audience reactions, and how comedy can both terrify and heal. He discusses how stand-up comedy seems like the worst place for someone who seeks constant approval, yet becomes a space for ultimate freedom from people-pleasing tendencies. We touch on the challenges of entering comedy later in life, the importance of authenticity, and the unexpected lessons learned from failure, family, and sobriety. Join us as we unpack how comedy can be both an art of connection and a path of self-discovery. Whether you're a performer or just navigating life's stages, this episode will make you laugh, reflect, and embrace your own journey.

    Talking Points:

    1. Comedy and People-Pleasing: How stepping on stage confronts the need for approval.
    2. The Double-Edged Sword of Audience Reactions: Balancing the desire for laughter with the reality of divided responses.
    3. Authenticity in Performance: Why sharing what’s meaningful creates a unique voice no one can imitate.
    4. Life Stories and Laughter: How lived experiences, like family and world events, shape personal and relatable comedy.
    5. The Ego and Success: Is there ever an endpoint, or is success just a feeling? Exploring career milestones and self-worth.
    6. The Power of Energy on Stage: How presence and mood can transform an audience.
    7. Sobriety and the Creative Journey: The role of alcohol in the comedy world and the surprising benefits of stepping away.
    8. Professionalism in Comedy: Why reliability and being easy to work with often outweigh sheer talent.
    9. Parenting and Emotional Responsibility: The impact of kids' awareness of our emotions and their role in our healing.
    10. Comedy as Healing: The unexpected ripple effect of jokes and stories in people's lives.

    This episode offers a thoughtful look at the courage it takes to be vulnerable, not just as a comedian, but as a person.

    This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in personal growth, spirituality, and the journey of embracing one's true self. Fady’s wisdom, humor, and authenticity shine through as he shares lessons from his life, making this conversation both inspiring and deeply relatable.

    Finding Your Authentic Voice: From Creative Director to Stand-up Comedian - Fady Kassab, Part 104 Sep 202400:32:11

    In this awesome episode, I chat with Fady Kassab, a Sydney-based comedian and creative director with roots in Lebanon. Fady was winner of Australia's RAW Comedy in 2019, shares his journey from the creative industry to the comedy scene, offering a unique perspective on life, identity, and personal growth. Fady also has two kids who lived with him full-time until recently, making him a great example of diving into his true self and exploring his unique true career path while raising kids. 

    • Career Change From Creative Director to Comedian: Fady’s transition from a successful career in creative direction to pursuing comedy full-time, exploring how his experiences shaped his comedic style and outlook on life.

    • Navigating Personal Identity: A section on how life events like the loss of a parent and a divorce led Fady to reevaluate his identity, moving beyond the labels society places on us and embracing the present moment.

    • Ego vs. Intuition: Fady discusses the battle between ego and intuition, emphasizing the importance of quieting the mind to listen to one's inner voice. He highlights how intuition is often drowned out by the noisy voice of the ego, which is rooted in past achievements or future anxieties.

    • The Power of Now: Drawing inspiration from spiritual teachings, particularly Eckhart Tolle’s "The Power of Now," Fady talks about the importance of living in the present moment and how it can lead to a more peaceful and fulfilling life.

    • Letting Go of the Ego: Insights into how detaching from the ego’s need for validation through success or material achievements can lead to true inner peace. Fady shares personal anecdotes and advice on how to practice this detachment.

    • Health and Well-being: A discussion on the importance of treating the body with love, rather than through a lens of societal expectations or self-criticism. Fady touches on how his approach to food, exercise, and mental health has evolved over the years.

    • Spiritual Growth and Mindfulness: Fady introduces listeners to spiritual teacher Muji and the concept of living without being trapped by thoughts or emotions. He explains how mindfulness and meditation have played a crucial role in his personal development.

    This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in personal growth, spirituality, and the journey of embracing one's true self. Fady’s wisdom, humor, and authenticity shine through as he shares lessons from his life, making this conversation both inspiring and deeply relatable.

    Get Unstuck and Thrive: How to Reclaim Your Power and Embrace Change30 Aug 202400:06:52

    In todays episode, I share my personal journey through a challenging week. I've come to realize that despite the difficulties and the feeling of being stuck or obligated to live for others, we actually have the power to choose our own paths and make changes in our lives.

    Even when it feels like we have no options, we always have some form of choice. Our bodies often push us to listen when we ignore our inner voice, manifesting through pain or discomfort. I emphasize the importance of connecting with our true selves, embracing our authentic journey, and allowing ourselves to evolve.

    Life is hard, and it's easy to get caught up in roles and personas that no longer serve us. But it's never too late to rediscover what makes us feel alive and to step into our true selves. I encourage you to take this moment to embrace who you are becoming, and to give yourself grace and compassion. Remember, tomorrow is a new day with the potential for change.

    Unlock Your Passion: Turn What You Love into Lifelong Fulfillment26 Aug 202400:10:49

    In this episode, I dive into the transformative power of learning something you love, something you're truly passionate about. When you learn what you love, it’s not just about the classroom experience—it's about staying motivated and engaged both in and out of work. Let's look at how your passion can turn ordinary experiences into exciting adventures, giving you a hands-on feel for the careers that await you.

    But it doesn't stop there. Years down the road, a career rooted in your passions will keep you feeling fulfilled. Ever heard the saying, "Choose a job you love, and you'll never have to work a day in your life"? We’ll discuss how pursuing a path you’re passionate about can truly light you up, can lead to a lifelong sense of accomplishment and appreciation for your work.

    And as you thrive in a field you love, you'll inspire those around you. There’s no greater success story than that of someone who followed their dreams and excelled. There's no brighter light you see than the one of humans that have stepped into their true path, into the role they came here for.

    Ideale Business Positionierung für Scanner & Multi-Passionierte: Die Kunst der Vielseitigkeit21 Aug 202400:42:44

    In dieser Episode tauchen wir in die faszinierende Welt der Scanner und multi-passionierten Unternehmerinnen ein. Wie positionierst du dich, wenn du nicht nur eine, sondern viele Leidenschaften hast? Ich spreche mit Sandra Reekers, Trainerin und Coach für Scanner Persönlichkeiten im Businessbereich.

    Ist es wirklich notwendig, eine Nische zu finden, oder gibt es auch andere Wege zum Erfolg?

    Wir sprechen darüber, wie du deine Vielseitigkeit in eine kraftvolle Geschäftsstrategie verwandelst, die nicht nur funktioniert, sondern dich auch wirklich erfüllt.

    Entdecke, wie du genau ein Business aufbaust, das all deine Interessen vereint und trotzdem Klarheit und Fokus hat. Schalte ein und finde heraus, wie du als Scanner Unternehmerin erfolgreich sein kannst, ohne dich einzuschränken!

    Sandra erzählt von ihrer eigenen beruflichen Reise und wie sie verschiedene Interessen und Talente in ihr Business integriert hat. Sie betont die Bedeutung von Spaß und Freude bei der Arbeit und ermutigt dazu, den eigenen Interessen zu folgen. Sandra erklärt verschiedene Positionierungsmodelle für Scanner-Persönlichkeiten, um ihre Vielseitigkeit zu nutzen und dennoch eine klare Ausrichtung zu haben. Sie ermutigt dazu, sich nicht in der Paralysierung der Vielfalt zu verlieren, sondern aktiv nach Lösungen zu suchen. Sie betont, dass man sich nicht auf eine Sache festlegen muss, sondern verschiedene Bausteine in sein Business einbringen kann.

    Sie empfiehlt die Verwendung eines Projektkompasses, um den Fokus zu behalten und gleichzeitig Flexibilität zu ermöglichen. Sie weist darauf hin, dass es wichtig ist, auf die eigene innere Stimme zu hören und sich nicht für andere zu verbiegen. Wenn man seine Interessen nicht auslebt, kann dies zu Unzufriedenheit, Erschöpfung und sogar körperlichen Symptomen führen. Umso wichtiger ist es sich Unterstützung und Inspiration zu suchen, um den nächsten Schritt zu gehen und ein erfülltes Leben zu führen.

    She Walked Away From $175M Deals - Why the 'Crazy' Move Made This Lawyer Mom of 3 Happier Than Ever #CareerChange20 Jul 202500:54:46

    Join the Priority List here now to create your soul-aligned website and be the first to get notified when it launches!


    Do you know that feeling when you've outgrown your role, even when everyone else thinks you should be satisfied? When you sense there's something bigger calling you, but you can't quite put your finger on what it is?

    That's exactly where my guest Olivia found herself - leading international expansions, closing 175 million euro deals, managing teams across continents. From the outside, it looked like the perfect corporate success story. But inside She knew she was meant for something more.

    In this episode:

    How becoming a mom can actually sharpen your focus on what truly matters - no more time for BS, as Olivia puts it

    Why moving countries with your family is a completely different game than moving as a single person (and the unexpected challenges nobody prepares you for)

    The power of looking at struggles as growth opportunities rather than roadblocks

    How to build meaningful relationships in your business - because success really comes down to the quality of connections in your life

    Why competition between women can actually be our greatest catalyst for growth (if we shift how we think about it)

    The journey from serving large corporations to finding your purpose working with women entrepreneurs - and why that pivot changed everything


    Key Takeaways for Career-Transitioning Moms:

    • Surrender the Fear and Serve Something Bigger
    • Stop making it about your insecurities and start focusing on how you can serve others. That's where real magic happens.
    • Success comes down to the quality of connections in your life. You don't need many, but make them meaningful.
    • Your Ideal Client Might Surprise You: Don't get too attachedto who you think you should serve. Stay open to who you're actually attracting.
    • Legal Foundation Matters for Online Entrepreneurs: Building an online business requires proper legal groundwork - but it doesn't have to be overwhelming with the right support.

    Rediscover your true self and reconnect with your body through Kinesiology with Melanie Herzog07 Aug 202400:22:05

    In this 2nd part with Melanie Herzog I speak with her about her new role where she's is now supporting and empowering working moms through Kinesiology. Finding balance between the mind and body is not easy. Kinesiology is a great tool and a non-invasive holistic integrative modality that uses muscle monitoring to identify and clear stresses within the body. In fact, it was mind-blowing for me how she was speaking to my body. She was asking questions and my body was responding, giving us all the answers. It can address structural, physiological, biochemical, and emotional stresses.

    Kinesiology helps clients get to the root cause of their symptoms and empowers them to make lifestyle changes for self-healing. Many clients who seek kinesiology are working moms who are stressed, overwhelmed, and experiencing anxiety. By putting themselves first and filling their own cup, they can create positive changes in their lives and improve their overall well-being. Celebrating small steps and having support along the journey is crucial for success. Melanie Herzog is now guiding women on their journey reconnecting with themselves to finding holistic well-being.

    Sound bites:

    • "You have all the answers within you. It's all within you. It's just a matter of unlocking it."
    • "It was mind-blowing for me how she was speaking to my body. She was asking questions and my body was responding, giving her the answers."
    • "If you don't listen to the body, eventually it's going to scream at you, and that is in the form of pain."

    From pain to purpose leaving corporate behind to support women with Holistic Kinesiology - Career change midlife with Melanie Herzog31 Jul 202400:22:48

    Sometimes we reach a point in our lives when we realize that our current career is not fulfilling us and we need to make a change. Sometimes we need a huge wake-up call in our life to show us we need to be brave and leap into a new kind of life. 

    Today I speak to Melanie Herzog who shares her midlife career change journey from a corporate career in TV research to kinesiology. She's now supporting and empowering working moms through Kinesiology. She discusses what led her to make a change and the challenges she faced along the way. We talk about the importance of listening to your intuition and following your own path. And how we are being shown the signs. She also talks about the role of kinesiology in reconnecting with yourself and finding balance between the mind and body.

    Making a career change particularly as a working mum with an established career can be very challenging and scary, but with commitment and faith, it is possible to create a new path.

    Why We Don't Always Get What We Want28 Jul 202400:26:51

    Sometimes we don’t understand why things don’t work out, but looking back, we see that they led us to where we are now. If you're confused, it means you're not aligned with your path, and it might be time to get back on track.

    I once interviewed for a position at a fashion company that I was very excited about. Or let me put it this way.. my ego was very excited about this job because it came with a big brand name and a nice title. Although I reached the final stage, something felt off during the interview, and I didn't get the job. Initially, I was disappointed, but later I realized it was a blessing in disguise, as I would not have enjoyed working there.

    Life can be challenging and painful at times, but pushing through these tough moments helps us grow. On the other side, we often discover a stronger, wiser, and better version of ourselves.

    “Remember that sometimes not getting what you want is a wonderful stroke of luck.” ~Dalai Lama
