Happy Mama with Amy

As the year comes to an end, Amy Taylor-Kabbaz reflects on what she's really learnt from this year's challenges, how you can find your own inner voice and mission statement for 2017, and why this podcast is no more in 2017. http://happymama.com.au/shop1/greatest-action-can-take-new-year/

We all have the power to change our circumstances. No matter what the world throws at us, we can dig deep, find our strength, and change our future. But as Amy Taylor-Kabbaz finds out from mama and entrepreneur Nataly Tormey, that doesn't mean that we have to be super woman - or, as Nataly's business is known, 'wonderwoman'.

We're not meant to do this alone: not motherhood, not womanhood. But how do we feel supported and understood if we don't have a strong circle of women around us? Amy Taylor-Kabbaz reflects on how to start that connection, no matter where you are right now...

It's very easy to be the cool, calm and connected mama we all long to be when everything is running smoothly, we've had a good night's sleep, and all the stars have aligned. But what about the days when none of that happens? Amy Taylor-Kabbaz speaks with coach and mama Cheryne Blom (http://www.cheryneblom.com/) about how to stay calm in the chaos.

So many of us are feeling the struggle at the moment - feeling lost, overwhelmed, or just like we're not where we thought we should be. In this episode, Amy Taylor-Kabbaz talks about how to accept what is, and fully trust the process.

A big part of our loss of identity when we become mothers can be the change in our income. Used to being independent and able to make our own decisions on spending, suddenly we find ourselves in a very different position. Money Mindfulness coach Liz McLardy talks to Amy Taylor-Kabbaz about how we can change our mindset around money as mothers.

How do we value this time in our lives when so much of our sense of achievement is tied up with everything OUTSIDE of the home? And is there a gift of happiness and contentment right in front of us? Amy Taylor-Kabbaz shares a recent experience that reminded her of her real priorities in life.

Living a sustainable life is about more than just organic gardening and low-waste living. It's about choosing a life that makes you feel proud, and allows you to focus on what you really love. In this interview with Sustainability expert and mama of two, Laura Trotta, Amy Taylor-Kabbaz uncovers a beautiful story of choosing your own path in motherhood, and life.

We all break - it's part of being human. But how do we move past those moments when we aren't the woman or mama we want to be? How do we not dive into self-pity or guilt, but instead let the moment go, and come back to grace? Amy Taylor-Kabbaz shares her thoughts and tips in this mini-episode.
