Meg Sylvester is an author, actor, mentor, and retreat leader dedicated to helping women step off the healing hamster wheel and reconnect with who they are beyond their roles. Her brand new book, The Mindful Mom: 365 Peaceful Reflections and Daily Gratitude for Moms, released March 10th, and despite the title, this is not a parenting book. It's a mindfulness book for women who happen to be moms, written to help them reclaim their identity, their joy, and their sense of self.After battling Lyme disease, losing her father, and navigating the demands of raising three kids, Meg rebuilt her life from the inside out. She now leads retreats, works with women one-on-one, and has channeled a decade of her own journey — and her clients' breakthroughs — into 365 daily reflections.In this episode, we get into the real conversation behind the book: why women struggle to prioritize themselves, how conditioned guilt keeps us stuck, and what it actually looks like to live with more intention and less pressure.In this episode, we cover:What the healing hamster wheel is and how to get off itWhy "what do I need?" is the hardest question for most women to answerConditioned guilt vs. real guilt — and how to tell them apartBeing multi-passionate in a linear world and why it's a strengthHow Meg went from Lyme disease and grief to writing a book and launching a screenwriting career at NYUWhy this book is for the woman, not the mom — only 10 of 365 prompts mention childrenThe stories we unconsciously plant in our kids ("I'm going to miss you so much") and what they actually signalWorthiness tied to productivity — recognizing the pattern and starting to untangle itWhy slow mornings and daily movement are Meg's only two non-negotiablesWhy women need more sleep than men — and why most wellness advice is built for male bodiesStarting something new at 40, silencing the inner critic, and just showing up anywayMeg's airport story about her son that reframes what it means to be creativeHer Greece Girls Trip — September 12–19, only 5 spots remainingThis episode is a heartfelt conversation about the journey of self-discovery, the importance of mindfulness and the power of embracing one's multi-passionate nature. Meg's insights and experiences offer valuable lessons for all women, especially those balancing the demands of motherhood with their own personal growth and fulfillment. Don't miss out on this inspiring discussion and be sure to check out Meg's new book, The Mindful Mom.Please remember to rate, review, and follow the show – and share with a friend!Subscribe to the newsletter:https://mailchi.mp/amyedwards/sign-up-to-amys-newsletterCheck out our new Comedy Wellness Podcast: Anything But Mid, cohosted with Whitney Stropp:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/anything-but-mid/id1849386215https://www.youtube.com/@AnythingButMidFind Amy's affiliates and discount codes: https://amyedwards.info/affiliatepageAll links: ⁠⁠⁠amyedwards.info⁠⁠⁠Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠@realamyedwards⁠⁠⁠Fight For Her: ⁠⁠⁠fightforher.net⁠⁠⁠TikTok:⁠⁠⁠ @themagicbabe⁠⁠⁠YouTube: ⁠⁠⁠YouTube Channel⁠⁠⁠Podcast: ⁠⁠⁠The Amy Edwards Show Podcast⁠⁠⁠Free Course:⁠⁠⁠ The Ageless Mindset⁠⁠⁠Full Course: ⁠⁠⁠The Youthfulness Hack⁠⁠⁠Amy's hair by ⁠https://www.thecollectiveatx.com⁠Podcast editing by https://podcastmagician.com/Get my FREE course "The Ageless Mindset: The Ultimate Guide to Look Younger and Feel Happier!"

Dame Lynley Dodd is a staple of Kiwi childhoods. The beloved children's author is best known for her Hairy Maclary series, the first of which was released over 40 years ago. She's sold millions of books worldwide, and just this week she was honoured at the New Zealander of the Year Awards. Dodd was granted the Legacy Award for fostering a love of literature in generations of children. While she admits it sounds a bit silly, Dodd admits to feeling slightly guilty at the level of acclaim and the legacy she's built. “Well I obviously, I think, been spending all these years thoroughly enjoying myself producing these books,” she told Jack Tame. “It sounds a bit, you know, I've been indulging myself, and I have, doing these things, but no, it's been great fun.” Dodd's love of wordplay and language stems back to her childhood, as her parents were, in her words, much into words, and there was an “awful lot of fun” with language in her home. “Both my parents were fond of books, and also fond of fun, and so, you know, obviously there were serious times as well, but there was a lot of fun with words,” she explained. “My father and I used to make up games, make up sort of imaginary animals and all sorts of silly things and have nonsense conversations about them.” The language used in her home was also a contrast to the things she was given to read at school, which were “incredibly old-fashioned". “There were, you know, millions of gnomes and fairies and bits and pieces, and it was talking down kind of language,” Dodd told Tame. “And I got a bit bored by those books, and it was only much later on, when I met books like Dr Suess', I suddenly realised you could be mad with language and have a fantastic time.” LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In the 1960s and 70s, a group of black filmmakers at UCLA produced a diverse collection of films to challenge Hollywood’s depiction of black communities.

In California, who did this segregation serve? Our guest confirms it was the interests of “citrus capitalism” in Orange County. The famous Supreme Court Case Broad v Board of Education challenged segregation in public schools. But there was another precedent, the Mendes et al case, that challenged segregation and education in California against Mexican-Americans.

One of the biggest cultural events on the planet, South by Southwest, will be coming up soon in Austin, Texas (beginning on March 12). More info: https://sxsw.com.This video showcases how SXSW became so big, by using its own marketing playbook.So what exactly is SXSW? And how did it get so big?With an attendance of just 700 people, SXSW started back in 1987 with a goal to help creative people achieve their goals. Fast forward to 2019, and that number had exploded to over 417,000 people from 106 countries.So, what is this gathering really all about? It's not just one event. South by Southwest, or SXSW, is really built on three core pillars: Ideas, culture, and connections.IdeasSXSW is essentially a pop-up university featuring 5,000 speakers spread over 2,000 sessions — all spread across 20 different programming tracks.CultureThen you have the second pillar, which is really the cultural heart of SXSW. It's where it all started, the legendary film and music festivals. SXSW is a global stage for discovery. In 2019 alone, there were 133 feature films and almost 2,000 performing acts from 62 countries.ConnectionsSXSW hosts more than 350 official parties and networking events. This is the glue that holds the whole shebang together, where a random chat or a line for a taco can turn into a million-dollar deal.PeopleWho are the hundreds of thousands of attendees that make this whole thing tick?SXSW features almost a perfect 50-50 split between male and female attendees with 62% of attendees between the ages of 26 and 44. They make up a who's who of people in creative and innovation industries, including marketing and advertising, film and TV, books and music, technology and media.Almost 60% are there to find new business. 42% want to connect with their clients.This is why brands like Mercedes-Benz, Uber Eats, and McDonald's show up in a huge way.The big question: What's the next big idea that's will come out of this wild gathering in Texas?Book Marketing Success is a reader-supported publication.
