Shine On Mama

Get ready for an honest, inspiring, and super fun conversation with my mentor, business partner, and friend, Maegan Blinka. Maegan is a total rockstar mompreneur who went from being a CPA (hello, numbers queen!) to a stay-at-home mom and then found her groove as a leader in network marketing and a certified hormone health coach. Her journey is all about taking bold steps, embracing change, and creating a life full of purpose and balance—and trust me, you’re going to love hearing all about it.

We talk about all the things, from the messy and beautiful transitions of motherhood to rediscovering your independence and purpose. Maegan gets real about the challenges of leaving a traditional career behind and finding herself again through network marketing and hormone health coaching.

And if you’ve ever struggled with feeling “off” (hello, hormones!), this episode has you covered. We dive into hormone health 101—think practical tips for managing cortisol, optimizing vitamins, balancing hormones, and why rest and gut health are basically the unsung heroes of your wellness. We even talk about supporting liver health (because who knew your liver plays a role in perimenopause?!) and how to create simple habits that make a big difference.

Oh, and did I mention we’re starting a book club? Yep, we’re diving into The Hormone Repair Manual by Dr. Lara Briden together, and it’s going to be AMAZING. You’ll get all the info you need to join us and start learning about the magic (and challenges) of hormone health with a supportive community of moms just like you.

So grab your favorite drink, hit play, and join us for a mix of personal stories, expert tips, and a whole lot of laughs. This episode will leave you feeling inspired, empowered, and ready to take on life with more energy, balance, and grace.

Today, we’re diving into how those tiny, often unseen steps we take every day can add up to massive wins over time. Think of this as a heart-to-heart chat on a chairlift, reminiscing about life, relationships, and everything in between—snowboarding optional!

I’m sharing real-life updates from the wild world of parenting three kids (all at different stages), growing a business, staying well, and leveling up my mindset. You’ll hear how I’m tackling one of my biggest podcasting goals: ditching my editing obsession and getting better at speaking off the cuff.

This episode is packed with motivational nuggets, including stories from The Slight Edge by Jeff Olson, a metaphor about a piñata (trust me, it’ll make sense), and my chaotic-yet-transformative day that included migraines, reels, and a whole lot of feelings. Oh, and we’re talking about Growth Day 3.0—your new favorite tool for personal growth!

Stick around as I share how I turned my day around using self-coaching strategies, plus an invitation to join my Tea & Talkback with Tanya meetup where we can dive even deeper.

This episode is all about choosing to celebrate yourself for EVERYTHING you ARE doing rather than sh*ting on yourself for the things that didn't get done, or the areas that you didn't show up fully!

In a vulnerable place of trying to do this exact thing,  I share some lessons I've learned and reflections I've gained from some of the thingsI've been up to over the past few weeks

In an 'all over the place' episode you'll learn:

- How speaking to yourself out loud helps develop your intuition
- That it's okay to question your beliefs when you discover that they could be hurting someone you love
- Why comparison has a negative impact on your mindset and behaviour
- How to embrace a 'done is better than perfect' mentality when it comes to procrastination

If you want to thrive where your ambition and motherhood intersect, you have to accept that there will be seasons of distraction, a lack of clarity and creativity - and that's okay.

What matter's most is that you keep going, like I talk about in this episode, even in the face of adversity, a true competitor continues to step up to the line.

That is the essence of episode 26 - don't ever give up, even when you risk losing.

There is SO much power in progress.

The question is, how do we make it?

Progress?

It all boils down to one thing. Consistency.

The thing is, unless we're tracking and measuring the areas of our life where we want to improve, we're really not gaining any insight on how much progress we're making no matter how consistent we're being.

In this episode I talk about the science behind measuring progress and why it matters, an approach to your progress that will keep you focused on the RIGHT metrics. The metrics that make you feel GOOD.

I'll share all the tools  I use to track areas of my life that are important to me. Motherhood, Finances, Spirit, Mental and Emotional Wellbeing and of course Health and Wellness!!

I can't wait to hear from you, what areas of your life do you measure!?   

DM me on Instagram @tanyamalcolm and let me know what you track and if you're going to try and of the resources in this episode!

The Mama Magic is back in episode 24 of the Shine On Mama Podcast I share a recent mothering experience that taught me not to get trapped on the sidelines towards my goals and reminded me that the belief I have in my kids can be turned inward as a powerful mindset method!

I go full basketball mom energy in this episode and I can't contain the excitement I feel about the fact that the coaching I shared with my daughter during her very first basketball tournament became a metaphor for my own goal achievement growth.

Motherhood is like having the cheat codes to success, if you just borrow some of that belief you shower your kids with for yourself!
