Redefining Midlife with Jo Clark

44. Intergenerational Shifts with Alena Turley


Listen Later

When I introduce Alena for this week's episode, I explain she is an amazing everyday woman who is doing extraordinary things, and this conversation has only extended my thoughts further. Her life experiences have ignited a passion in her that has paved the way for helping others, particularly mothers who face maternal depletion. She is an award-winning educator, podcaster, and holistic health mentor with over 30 years of experience. Listen in as I chat with her about:

  • Early life trauma patterns, big T and little t and stigmatisation of family dynamics that may help us understand more in midlife.

  • Overcoming abusive addiction, including homelessness, rehabilitation and catalysts for change.

  • Single motherhood challenges which have helped to shape Alena’s current relationship and led to contrasting outcomes.

  • Extended her family in her early 40s.

  • Our right to authenticity and how motherhood gives us an opportunity to rethink who we are, but often that opportunity is not embraced.

  • Our relationship and connection to ourselves and those surrounding us.

  • I encourage you to find out more about Alena at ⁠www.alenaturley.com⁠ and ⁠www.soulmamahub.com⁠. You can listen to her Podcast: ⁠Unboxable⁠ ⁠- soulful living for mothers with big dreams⁠ and also follow her on instagram: @soulmamahub.
