In this episode of Mother the Mother, McLean McGown explores the struggles and triumphs of embracing a multifaceted life as a woman, mother, and entrepreneur. Do you feel torn between your diverse passions and society’s pressure to specialize? McLean shares her own journey of weaving together roles in yoga, nutrition, doula work, and hypnosis, proving that a rich and authentic life defies traditional labels.

At the core of her message is the importance of nervous system regulation and redefining freedom. McLean reminds us that true success isn’t just financial—it’s addressing the deeper challenges that keep us stuck in fear or indecision. She offers practical insights to help you step out of analysis paralysis and create a life that honors your talents and values. Through embodiment, clear communication, and seeing children as our greatest teachers, McLean inspires listeners to lead with intention and embrace their unique paths with confidence.

Quotes:

●     “Everything that I do, teach, share, and support is based on your autonomy—your freedom to show up how you want to show up.”

●     “If we're just a shell of ourselves, barely getting by, scraping through each day, not loving our lives, not feeling happy, content, or safe in our marriages and relationships, not being the mom we always dreamed of being, if we're yelling, feeling like a raw nerve, ready to blow up if one more thing happens—if we aren't nurturing ourselves, it spills out into everything.”

●    “Our children are our greatest teachers, not just for the unique lessons they bring to us, which they do. It's also the opportunity to explore parts of ourselves that we haven't yet, that we didn't make space for, and possibly didn't even know were there.”
