The Golden Mic Podcast presents Ep 25. The Recovering Church Girl Pt w/ Tonia Adleta https://play.goldenmicpodcast.com/0025_adleta In the previous Golden Mic Podcast, Tonia Adleta talked about her upbringing from being born prematurely to moving over a dozen times during her childhood to finding solace in her religious institution. By the time the previous episode ended she was already questioning her faith, and by the time her youth ambassador program was identified as a cult by the national media. Tonia made her cut from the church and began her new spiritual journey. "I am fed the fuck up with the whole system - with the oppression, with the idea that racism is so inherent, that sexism is so inherent in the culture (of some religious institutions). If we know better, we need to do better." Tonia Adleta In this episode, Tonia talks about the effects of the messaging she received from her former church. Messages that promote patriarchy and limited the roles of womenMessages that would promote catastrophes and pandemics as the result of a wrathful godHypocrisy by leaders in the church you preach on thing but do another - as the result of a non-acceptance of selfDismissing martyrdom as the highest valueRefuting the saved vs the damned But she didn't allow me, the positive psychologist, to wallow in negativity. Tonia describes all of these problems as being an insidious part of the idea that we are a fractured society with fractured individuals. Throughout the interview, I pull this sparks of what life is like for Tonia now, and through and through it comes back to one of her major identities. Tonia is a recovering church girl. This one is an instant classic about how we may be done with our past, but it's sometimes not done with us. "If I truly believe that each person has the right to an individual spiritual experience, that means I can take no judgment in it whatsoever." Tonia Adleta A must listen.

The Golden Mic Podcast A Recovering Church Girl Pt 1 w/ Tonia Adleta https://play.goldenmicpodcast.com/0024_adleta Have you ever had something that you firmly believed as truth begin to crumble? Like a romantic relationship that you'd think would last forever, that ends before your matching tattoos have time to heal? Zoinks, Scoob! Or how about a belief system that you dedicated your entire life to start crashing down? If you haven't, it may happen in the next decade. I met Tonia in NYC as she was planning a networking event. And talk about cutting directly to the chase, we saw each other and immediately went into an intense, intuitive conversation about our lives - god, kids, entrepreneurship. This is the first part of Tonia Adleta's 2 part series The Recovering Church girl. Born pre-mature, Tonia was dressed in dolls clothes. Her family moved over 16 times while growing up - sometimes she be the cool new kid in school, other times, not high on the homeroom's pecking order. The rock that her family stood on during that constant transition were within the walls of her religious family and her own family's beliefs about raising a child in the church. Not only was Tonia a part of the teen missionary. It was later called by the mainstream media a cult. That's when the cookie smashed. But if you listen closely, there were some doubts creeping up about patriarchy and "submitting" that were not sitting well with Tonia. Insidious things that ate away at her conviction in religion. Listen to her reaction when I say submit, the unwinding of a system with quite a bit of hegemony, not unlike many systems, where dogma became too disruptive and Tonia, decided as a recovering church girl, to take a stab at spirituality internally. I'm so stoked to present the first part of A Recovering Church Girl Pt. 1. We love your feedback, so if you've enjoyed this show, please rate us and leave us a review.

Losing your beloved brings you face-to-face with the question: Who am I now? In the throes of massive life transition, it can be terrifying to lose our sense of Self alongside deep grief, yet when we cultivate the capacity to pause and get curious about the person within, our true Soul mate, we begin to understand the essence of who we really are - who we’ve always been. From this place, somehow the way forward seems more possible - and perhaps, even enjoyable. We cover a LOT of ground in this week’s episode of the Grief Unveiled podcast! Join me in my exquisite conversation with Tonia Adleta: entrepreneur, international speaker, and single mom on a mission to help us unlearn the shame and fear that impacts the way we live. She shares her evolution from a completely depleted 60 hour work week to seeking the answer to the important question, “What do I want?” You’ll hear about her journey to founding the Single Parent Summit, a space for solidarity in single parenting and a community of single parents dedicated to growth, positivity, and productivity. Tonia most recently founded Recovering Church Girls* (no, it’s not just for girls!), a community committed to cultivating a sense of Self, solidarity and spirituality from a place of total ownership while releasing fear and shame. We tackle the topics of guilt, shame, fear of judgment, the proverbial “should” that dictates so much of our days and a truly deep look at where it all comes from and how we can shift into a life with more freedom to choose - including that which we prefer, want, need and desire! If you’re looking to connect with your intuition and understand the truth of you, don’t miss this episode! Topics we covered: Why “staying busy” isn’t the golden ticket...and why creating boundaries around your time is! The loneliness that accompanies widowhood and single parenthood and how to find your true-blue community. An examination of the limiting beliefs and stories we internalize about our (lack of) worth. The different influences in society that can keep us small and distance us from owning our true desires. The impact of solo travel for self-knowledge and self-awareness.

Today on Activate Bold Choices your host Robin Joy and her guest Tonia Adleta talk about how to live a life that you want to live and quiet the outside noises of doubt.
Who defines "evil" anyway?
Something a bit more personal; why self-care is so important to me, and why it can be so very difficult for many Recovering Church Girls* to prioritize themselves - in any way, shape, or form. If you happen to be a single parent or building a business on the side of your day job, you might find a few more things we have in common. You are the glue that holds your world together; and self-care is what keeps you sticky.
From her first missions trip as a young teen, to the commonalities we have available to us today, Tonia shares her thoughts and experiences in this mini episode.

Are you saying yes to yourself and the things that matter most to you in this life? Or are you saying yes to everything else and putting yourself second, or 3rd, or 4th, or worse? And how exactly are you supposed to know the difference? This conversation with Tonia Adleta is going to provide some very helpful perspective for anyone who has lived so much of their life trying to do everything they really thought they were supposed to do, all the while unknowingly shrinking away from who they really are. Tonia is an international speaker, the founder and host of The Single Parent Summit and the owner of multiple businesses, including an award-winning wedding and event planning and floral design company. She describes herself as a “recovering perfectionist” and single mom to the two most amazing kids ever. Some of the key takeaways from this episode: ~ There's no such thing as work-life balance. There's just life. ~Mindfulness and presence versus looking backward or forward. If you’re always looking back and rehashing old memories of bad things, you’re being a victim. But if you’re looking forward to the next moment you hope to be better than this one, you’re delaying the future. Either way, you’re not being mindful of the present, which is a road to nowhere … ~ The Importance of Awareness – “People that don't get it don't get that they don't get it.” Tonia gives a great account of why this is important if we want to be well and happy. Also listen for her story about being on the floor of the bathroom when she was living in a mobile home. We’ve all had that moment. It’s not just you. **This episode was originally released in July of 2017 under its original name, “The No Schedule Man Podcast.”
Tonia Adleta is an international speaker, the founder and host of the Single Parent Summit and the owner of multiple businesses, including an award-winning wedding and event planning and floral design company. She describes herself as a recovering perfectionist and single mom to the two most amazing kids ever. Tonia and I are kindred spirits in many ways. One of the suggestions or principles that is often suggested that I simply have never been able to accept is the idea of just choosing one thing, picking one lane and staying there for the rest of your life. From a marketing and simplicity perspective, I admit I sometimes wish I were more like that. If I were to choose just one thing and be able to dedicate my whole life to it, I bet I could be world-class in that field. But I'm not wired that way. I'm too curious and too creative. I have things that I am more interested in developing than others, but I can never see myself doing just one thing. Seeing that Tonia feels and lives the same way was a breath of fresh air. And I don't think either one of us is trying to suggest that's what you have to do as well, but especially in this digital age, it seems that we must be multifaceted in our emotional maturity skill set in order to navigate the tricky waters of relationships, friendships, work, health, parenting, recreation and so many other things. So how do we do that? Well, part of the answer is addressed right off the start of the discussion with Tonia and it is one of a number of things that stood out to me from our conversation, including: There's no such thing as work-life balance - There's just life. This was one of my favourite beginnings to any episode of this podcast so far. I thought I'd tossed Tonia a bit of a curveball and was interested to see what she do with it. I was fascinated when she didn't even swing at it. And I absolutely loved the way she answered the question. So rather than saying anything more about it here, I will let you listen to the episode to hear her response. Mindfulness versus looking backward or forward - Tonia gives a terrific account of how you can tell if you are in one of two very common camps of people. The first is to evaluate if you are treating yourself like a victim, as if life always happens to you. This will sound familiar if you find that you are always looking backwards, rehashing things from the past, carrying ill feelings with you, recycling bad memories, and basically being unwilling to let go. The other camp has you looking forward. This one delays the thought of happiness until a certain result can be achieved. Of course, the tragedy is, with this operating system, you can never get the result that you want; you're focused on pleasing everyone but yourself and having to be perfect all the time. It's a road to nowhere. Awareness - This has come up before, it is going to come up again, it is a key part of one of the keynote speeches I deliver, it is central as one of the six key pieces in a speech that Tonia delivers and I am going to continue to highlight this point whenever it comes up for as long as I'm doing this podcast. And the reason why is that most people in my experience are unaware that they are unaware. I include myself in this up until fairly recently. Another way of saying this is, “people that don't get it don't get that they don't get it.” Tonia gives a great account of why this is important so I encourage you to listen for that along with the other of the six points that she delivers part way through our discussion. Also listen for her story about being on the floor of the bathroom when she was living in a mobile home. I point that out because what you are about to hear is a dynamic, creative, successful woman of great character. I think it's really easy to look at somebody for where they are now and then assume they've never had those moments when life has brought them to their knees. If that's something you're going through now, know that it is not just you. It happened to me and it's happened to Tonia. You can get through it if you choose to and Tonia is going to give you some terrific examples of how to do that. ©2017 Kevin Bulmer Enterprises
