Podcast appearances and mentions of anna mullens

On an episode they tried recording once, and almost canceled a second time due to some major life events for both of them, Host, Anna Mullens, and guest, Carolyn Turkington (one half of The MomBabes), tackle the notion that we have to be ‘ready' in order to show up. This very raw edit of the podcast reveals what's really going on behind the scenes for Moms, and discusses the ladies' newest book project, The MomBabes: A Motherhood Anthology.  Other topics in this episode:  > Facing a child's autism diagnosis  > Advocating for your child's wellbeing  > Neuro-divergency in families  > Grieving our former selves (after we enter motherhood)  > Surviving a difficult and traumatic birth story > The power of community   > Self publishing a co-author anthology  > The power of coffee  About the Guest: Christina and Carolyn are Moms, sisters, podcasters, founders of The MomBabes community and authors of their debut book, The MomBabes: A Motherhood Anthology. Co-winners of the World's okay-est Mom award, Christina and Carolyn are the friends every Mom deserves. They aren't parenting experts, they're real women using their personal desires for connection to build a community of women through sharing stories. The sisters keep busy working and wife-ing while chasing their kids and their dreams - all without spilling their coffee.   More from The MomBabes http://www.themombabes.com/ (www.themombabes.com) and http://www.instagram.com/themombabes (www.instagram.com/themombabes)  About the Host:  @unapologeticanna on FB and Instagram  UnapologeticStories.com  Anna was born with a deep fascination for letters - a fascination that deepened when she discovered those letters could turn into words, those words into sentences and those sentences into stories. Not surprisingly, Anna graduated from The University of Victoria, with a Degree in both English and Gender Studies, fuelling her eventual mission to put the power of words back into the hands of women. Despite multiple other certifications along the way, including one with world-renowned author and personal transformation pioneer, Deepak Chopra, it was ultimately her personal battle with post-traumatic stress, depression and anxiety that became the catalyst for the work she does now, as she helps pave the way for others to live with vulnerability and courage whether they are online, offline or on stage.  Thanks for listening!

Episode #20 Anna introduces the topic “How to Speak Up For Yourself. Anna truly is the best person to be leading this conversation as she is not only a public speaker, but a tireless advocate for courageous vulnerability in service to deeper connection. But speaking up can often be the most difficult thing to do (even for Anna!) because there is no guarantee that we are going to get the result we are looking for, and that can be really scary. To say it made us a little uncomfortable to talk about our own fear of speaking up might be an understatement... this is a tough one - even for the Unapologetic crew!

And after chatting about mom guilt we all realized that we are not alone in any these thoughts or feelings. Listen in this week and see if anything that we talked about resonates with you.

Body shaming is an epidemic. As a culture, we are simple obsessed with size. Particularly when it comes to women’s bodies.From the early days when rounder ‘fertile’ bodies were more revered, to the flat-flapper twenties, the curvy fifties and sixties, the twiggy seventies, the waif-like nineties, and the athletic two-thousands, there has yet to be time in modern history that women haven’t been dictated to in some form or another.   There has yet to be a time when women aren't being "explained" through media portrayals and social culture.And no body is winning, because the target is ever-shifting. It’s no wonder the majority of women are struggling to find their way and feel worthy, constantly being held in comparison to warped, photoshopped, idealistic images portrayed in media all over the world, that continuously represent less than 2% of the female population at any given time (a two-percent who is, as well, being photoshopped even further so even they can’t live up to the ideal). Is the world changing? In small parts, yes. Thanks to major media role models like @thebirdspapaya, who we are welcoming to the @unapologeticallyhershow stage in March, but we still have a long way to go to find our way through the filters and back to each other.   Anna and the ladies get super personal about body shame, talking about the ways in which women of all sizes are struggling... and attempting to create a new dialogue by bringing the shame out from behind change-room doors. We talk media literacy, personal challenges and - as always - we do our very best to stay courageous in the face of some very hard conversations.   Our Bio:   Nothing connects us faster than being Unapologetically real.

Episode 8   Title: How To Embrace Your Woo   Kathy Buchanan, Speaker, workshop host, and owner of Balancing Energy. Kathy had struggled for years with physical pain, debilitating anxiety, and depression. It was when Kathy realized she was enough just as she was that things radically changed. This realization enhanced the already amazing transformational journey that had been taking place for several years. Have you been waiting to connect with who really really are? Your True self, free from physical and emotional suffering of any kind. Have you experienced, the feeling that happiness was somewhere out there in the future, after you had your next degree, your dream job, that next big raise, the perfect partner, when you finally have time for yourself. For Kathy owning the “Woo” spiritual side, of herself and her practice has made all the difference in the world for her. And profoundly cemented in the fact, that happiness has to be where you are, in this very moment, it is never out there. At the end of the day it wasn’t about who was she to be doing this work, But, Who was she not to share this work, that radically enhances peoples lives. If you have a passion, practice, or not so typical something you do, that you absolutely love. Know, that if you want to share it, go for it, especially if it can be of benefit to others, you will absolutely love the real, raw, and fulfilling connections you make.   Our Bio:   Nothing connects us faster than being Unapologetically real.

Episode 5   Title: How To Own Your Story   This week, our topic was led by Unapologetically Her Founder, and Principle Facilitator of the Unapologetic Speaker Training Program, Anna Mullens.   Anna was called to a discussion about how we attach to our circumstances and form our identities (and our egos) around the story, and not the soul.   The truth is: we are NOT our stories. We are so much more!   When we can break through the shame and really connect to one another, releasing ourselves of the false identities our stories have shaped for us, we are able to live our lives with so much more freedom, creativity, love and divine wisdom.   It is Anna’s relentless and mission to allow women to detach from the stories holding us back and truly see that we are already everything we need.   We hope you enjoy this beautiful and soulful conversation!     Our Bio:   Nothing connects us faster than being Unapologetically real.

How To Be Perfect   Do you have troubles meeting your own standards? Have you been told that the standards you set for yourself are too high? Do your standards get in your own way? If you answered yes to any of these questions you may have a perfectionist monkey running around in your brain. That monkey can cause stress, anxiety, nervousness, frustration and even depression. Especially if you constantly criticize yourself for not doing a good enough job. This is my issue, or “monkey.” I like to call her “blah blah.” Yep you heard me right “blah blah.” She is the critical voice inside my head that compares my performance to everyone else’s. Well it’s time for “blah blah” to stop”blahing.” Ask yourself.... What is perfection? What defines success? What’s feeding your soul? After meditation, perfection to me is simply waking up with air in my lungs. I’m learning that success is feeling enough. And lastly my soul is fed with awareness. I’m aware of the signs of procrastination, worry and doubt. This is “blah blah.” This awareness helps my soul to find the thoughts that feed me. Are you ready to set some boundaries with “blah blah?” Stay tuned for tomorrow’s episode where we speak more about perfectionism and how “blah blah” has haunted the thoughts of Hayley Loewen Intuitive Business Mentor her entire life.   Our Bio:   Nothing connects us faster than being Unapologetically real.
