I am SUCH a super fan of Shannon Sedgwick Davis and having her on the show today, on Independence Day, felt just absolutely right. She has spent her life making freedom a reality for so many others. Shannon's book, To Stop A Warlord, is moving and shocking and will call you to action in your own life. What a read.  When you think today of the freedom we have as Americans, I hope it reminds you to think and pray and act on behalf of those- in our own country and around the world- who are not free. Happy 4th of July, friends! . . . . http://anniefdowns.com #thatsoundsfunpodcast ... join in the conversation wherever hashtags are welcome. :)

The awesome mom of 4 talks about how she has and is raising her kids amid her full life as a midwife, writer, teacher, and independent global health consultant. We discuss: The continuum of working and self-care and the competing needs across time How women are conditioned to not ask for help and are hard on themselves and each other How being single works in her family situation How some of her best writing comes from “procrasti-writing.” Writing when she doesn’t want to do other things It’s good self-care to pay someone to do those things you don’t like doing. Structure vs. flexibility when working with a busy family schedule Being easy on yourself and not adhering to perfection around parenting The realities of having a baby and what you need at that time How common expectations of having a child are not correct and can create self-doubt in early parenting How age helps you figure out that things are not as important as experiences Internal splits are common for mothers with careers. How to ask for what you want unconditionally without feeling bad What helps her hold the flame or feel inspired Listening to and acting upon weird and random thoughts and impulses Hiking and trail running puts her in the zone How “Law of Attraction” works for her. Accepting set-backs and getting up again and moving forward Writing down goals helps to formalize them Telling someone your goals for accountability Opening to possibilities because we don’t know what we don’t know Her environment for success includes having the people around her that she trusts And those people tell her the honest, hard stuff too She has so many Mommy Heroes.
