    Last week's magic: Tameana healing and women's shadow circles

    · Mama, what's next?

    -Solo episode-

    It’s 2025, and we’re more disconnected than ever. So my beautiful mama, if you find yourself needing support—a safe space—if you feel alone in your journey of womanhood and motherhood, if you wonder why your partner just doesn’t get it… you’re not alone. You don't need to go through these changes alone. That is what sisterhood is for.

    Because the truth is, humans are wired for connection. We are, after all, some of the most social creatures on Earth—right up there with monkeys. And yet, somewhere along the way, modern life pulled us apart. We traded villages and storytelling for screen time, and deep, soul-nourishing community for the illusion of independence. But it wasn’t always this way.

    Today I take you with me to my spiritual weekend sharing a healing technique called Tameana and a Women's shadow circle I attended.

    enjoy enjoy!

    Love, Mellie.

    -Solo episode-

    Today I share with you a little tool to help you build your confidence and motivation.

    Think about it: how often do you end your day dwelling on what you didn’t get done, what went wrong, or what’s still on your to-do list? It’s such a common habit, but it’s a recipe for self-doubt.

    Today I tell you about a simple habit that has profound effects on your confidence.

    Remember, like I always say - confidence doesn’t come from big, flashy moments. It grows from small wins over time.

    enjoy enjoy!

    Love, Mellie.

  • The moment I lost my groove (and how I got it back)

    The moment I lost my groove (and how I got it back)

    · Mama, what's next?

    -Solo episode-

    You ever had that moment where you realize… you’ve completely lost your flow, your excitement, your path? Everything feels grey. It's like your life is passing your by.

    That was me a few years ago.

    Like, you wake up one day and think, “Wait, where did I go?” That was me.

    Life got busy—mama life, work, responsibilities—and somewhere along the way, I realized, I had lost myself.

    Though - can you lose something that doesn't really exist anymore?

    That's the other thing. We change.

    But here’s something else—losing your groove doesn’t mean it’s gone. I was in there somewhere. I just felt stuck. (gosh that word is so over-used)

    I had to figure out how to get back to the new me.

    So in this episode, we’re talking about what it means to lose track of who you are and what's important to you, how to recognize it, and most importantly—how to get it back. Because trust me, it’s totally possible.

    I had so much fun writing this feature, as it's totally ME. 100% So enjoy enjoy!

    Love, Mellie.

  • Over-performing in the supermarket #Rediscovery

    Over-performing in the supermarket #Rediscovery

    · Mama, what's next?

    Why Are We Over-performing at the Checkout? Rediscovering Yourself Beyond the Mental Load


    In this episode, we unpack a moment of clarity (my clarity): standing in line at the supermarket, sick and moving slower than usual, I noticed how ingrained my habit of overperforming is – even at the checkout. From rushing to pack bags faster than the cashier to preemptively grabbing my card to avoid holding anyone up, it’s a pattern that reflects a deeper truth.

    Why do so many of us – especially mothers – feel the need to overcompensate in every area of life? How much of this stems from losing touch with who we are and carrying the invisible mental load of always being “on”? Together, we’ll explore how to slow down, let go of the need to overperform, and rediscover the self we’ve lost amidst the chaos of motherhood and societal expectations.

    Love, Mellie.

    I watched others take the spotlight and told myself I prefer working in the background

    · Mama, what's next?

    I passed up chances to showcase my work because the fear of being judged felt bigger than the opportunity itself.

    Has this happened to you before?

    There were times I even told myself, this is perfectly fine - I am more comfortable working behind the scenes.

    When in fact, deep down I knew I was just scared.

    Today’s 5-minute career hack, we’re diving into why women often hesitate to take risks in their careers – and how to start shifting that mindset.

    Tune in and take the next step toward rediscovering yourself, Mama.

    Heute geht das wundervolle Gesprâch mit Maria Lindner weiter. Maria ist freie Sprecherin und lebt in Leipzig.

Zudem reflektieren wir ßber generationenßbergreifende Erfahrungen und deren Einfluss auf Beziehungen und das Leben. Und ßber die Schwierigkeiten der Kriegsgeneration und den Umgang mit Trauer und Schuldgefßhlen, sowie die spirituelle Verbindung zu Seelen.


    Maria teilt ehrlich, wie sie als Trauer- und Hochzeitsrednerin mit intensiven Emotionen umgeht, warum Neugier und Empathie in ihrem Beruf essenziell sind – und warum wir lernen müssen, Gegensätze im Leben auszuhalten.

    Wie du dich emotional abgrenztWarum Rituale und Bewegung so wichtig sind, um Emotionen zu verarbeitenWie uns Familienmuster und Glaubenssätze prägen – und warum wir sie hinterfragen dürfenWarum mentale Gesundheit und Selbstfürsorge in der Selbstständigkeit unverzichtbar sind

    Von Liebe und Abschied: Wie echte Worte unser Leben berühren – Im Gespräch mit Maria Lindner, Freie Rednerin #MomCareerChange

    · Mama, what's next?

    Was haben die schĂśnsten und die schwersten Momente unseres Lebens gemeinsam? Sie werden durch Worte und Bilder unvergesslich. In dieser Folge spreche ich mit Maria Lindner, einer freien Rednerin aus Leipzig, die Menschen auf ihrem Weg von der Liebe bis zum Abschied begleitet. Wir tauchen ein in ihre Welt, in der Emotionen und ein GespĂźr fĂźr tiefe GefĂźhle und Worte sowie die Kraft der Stimme den Unterschied machen - und wie Maria es schafft in Momenten der Freude und des Verlusts Menschen zu berĂźhren.


    Maria und ich sprechen über die faszinierende Welt des öffentlichen Redens – von der Kraft der Stimme bis hin zu den emotionalen Herausforderungen, die diese Arbeit mit sich bringt. Sie teilt ihre Reise mit uns, wie sie diesen Beruf nach einer Corporate Karriere für sich entdeckt hat, was ihn so besonders macht, und wie sie Familie und Karriere miteinander in Einklang bringt.


    Es war ein wundervoll inspirierendes Gespräch, und ein langes dazu. Weil Maria so eine schöne Stimme hat und ich ihr ewig zuhören könnte. Deshalb habe ich die Episode auch in 2 Teile separiert – also, hol dir einen Kaffee, mach’s dir gemütlich, und lass uns gemeinsam eintauchen in diesen spannenden, sinngebenden Beruf.


    Viel Spaß beim Zuhören!

    Love, Melie.

  • How to attract clients organically and balance motherhood & entrepreneurship as a mom of 4 with Nikki Milne

    How to attract clients organically and balance motherhood & entrepreneurship as a mom of 4 with Nikki Milne

    · Mama, what's next?

    In this episode I loved learning from Nikki's inspiring journey that took her from a hairdresser to a successful entrepreneur and PR expert in Australia.


    Nikki talks about the challenges she faced while building her business, the importance of resilience, and the mindset required for success.

    She shares her learnings on balancing motherhood with her career and growing a demanding agency and mentoring business, the significance of saying yes to opportunities, and the value of maintaining a clear boundary between personal and professional life.


    As an expert on growing your business via social media she shares her learnings and tips on how to attract clients organically. We also talk about an important business channel we should not ignore - and it's not digital.


    We also talk about the risks associated with sharing children on social media, her flexible her personal approach to work-life balance as a mom of 4, and the importance of scaling a business according to personal needs.

    Nikki teaches women how to see their worth and the significance of understanding one's value in business.

Bei der Lufthansa vom Check-in zur Fßhrungskraft - eine beeindruckende Karriere.

  • Ich bin arbeitslos

    Ich bin arbeitslos

    · Mama, what's next?

    Ehrlichkeit und Authentizität zahlen sich aus.

    In dieser Episode erkunde ich mit Recruiterin Sarah Ann Johnson die kraftvolle Rolle von Authentizität und Offenheit auf dem beruflichen Weg. Sarah teilt, wie ein ehrlicher LinkedIn-Post, in dem sie ßber Fehlentscheidungen und ihre eigene Arbeitslosigkeit sprach, eine ßberraschende Welle an Unterstßtzung und JobmÜglichkeiten auslÜste. Wir sprechen ßber die Angst, als gescheitert wahrgenommen zu werden, und warum gerade die Verletzlichkeit uns stärken kann. Sie erzählt, wie sie ihren Weg zu einem erfßllenderen Job gefunden hat und was wir alle daraus lernen kÜnnen, wenn wir uns authentisch und ungeschÜnt zeigen.

    Auch wenn der Sound ab und zu etwas holprig ist – die Technik wollte diesmal nicht so richtig mitspielen - hoffe ich dennoch, dass ihr euch ein paar hilfreiche Anregungen mitnehmen könnt, sei es für eigene Erfolge, Misserfolge oder die nächste Entscheidung auf eurem beruflichen Weg.

    Enjoy & Viel Spaß beim Zuhören!

    Autonomie, gesunde Aggressionen bei Kindern als Schlüssel zu deiner inneren Freiheit - mit Psychotherapeutin Jana Kuderna

    · Mama, what's next?

    Dein Kind fordert immer mehr Eigenständigkeit, und du fßhlst dich manchmal an deine Grenzen gebracht? Heute sprechen wir darßber, warum diese Phase nicht nur fßr dein Kind entscheidend ist, sondern auch eine unglaubliche Chance fßr dein eigenes Wachstum birgt.

    In dieser Folge von Mama, What’s Next? habe ich die großartige Jana Kuderna zu Gast, eine erfahrene Psychotherapeutin für Kinder und Jugendliche. Gemeinsam tauchen wir in die herausfordernde Phase der kindlichen Autonomieentwicklung ein – eine Zeit, die sowohl für Mütter als auch für Kinder spannend und intensiv ist. Jana erklärt, wie die kindliche Seele unermüdlich nach Eigenständigkeit strebt und warum es für Mütter so wichtig ist, in dieser Phase ihre eigenen ungelösten Themen zu erkennen.

    Wir sprechen darßber, wie gesunde Aggressionen bei Kindern ein Zeichen von psychischer Entwicklung sind und wie Mßtter, die sich getriggert fßhlen, dies als Chance zur eigenen inneren Befreiung nutzen kÜnnen. Jana zeigt auf, dass der Weg zur Selbstbestimmung der Mutter der Schlßssel zu einer gesunden Mutter-Kind-Beziehung und zur FÜrderung der kindlichen Eigenständigkeit ist.

    In diesem inspirierenden Gespräch erfährst du, wie du als Mama den Abnabelungsprozess deines Kindes als Möglichkeit für dein persönliches Wachstum nutzen kannst – und wie dies die Basis für eine stärkere und klarere Bindung schafft.

    Freu dich auf ein tiefgehendes Gespräch voller wertvoller Einsichten und praktischer Tipps!

    Themen:

    Autonomiephase: Was passiert mit unseren Kindern und wie gehen wir als Mamas damit um?Gesunde Aggressionen: Warum sie wichtig sind und wie sie unsere Kinder in die Eigenständigkeit führen.Triggerpunkte bei Müttern: Wie ungelöste Themen aus der eigenen Kindheit uns beeinflussen.Wie wir als Mütter durch die Erziehung unserer Kinder innerlich wachsen können.Enjoy & viel Spaß beim Zuhören! deine Melie.

  • If you don't advocate for yourself, nobody else will | Personal Branding with Daniela Sarmiento Part 1

    If you don't advocate for yourself, nobody else will | Personal Branding with Daniela Sarmiento Part 1

    · Mama, what's next?

    In todays episode I speak with Executive Career Coach and Personal Branding Expert Daniela Sarmiento from Barcelona who shares with me why personal branding becomes increasingly important in todays world.

    Daniela shares her experience in transitioning from working as a recruiter and headhunter to starting her own personal branding and image consulting business. She speaks about helping professionals, particularly those in leadership roles, stand out by improving how they communicate, not just in their CVs but also in person. It's about making sure their personality, leadership, and values shine through in interviews and conversations.

    We explore the challenges women face in the workplace, including self-doubt and the need for mentorship. The discussion highlights the necessity of authenticity, negotiation skills, and the impact of executive presence.

    We also discuss the importance of building a personal brand, especially for introverts who might find it challenging to stand out. She offers guidance on how women can craft a strong personal image that reflects not only skills but also presence and personality. We touch on networking, self-presentation, and the ongoing process of personal transformation, encouraging people to take control of their professional narrative. Often, people are so used to their roles that they forget to showcase their unique strengths, which is crucial for career growth.

    Talking points are:

    The importance of having a personal brand messageWhy you need to have a career portfolio definedWays to exude executive presence to attract more leadership opportunities Self-doubt often holds individuals back from achieving their goals.Networking and mentorship are crucial for professional growth.Women often face unique challenges in the workplace.Negotiating work-life balance is vital for personal well-beingDefining your non-negotiables in your jobAuthenticity in professional settings fosters trust and connection.Career transitions require self-discovery and clarity.Enjoy & viel Spaß beim Zuhören! deine Melie.

    dear mama, it's okay to change your mind. founders f*ckups

    · Mama, what's next?

    Your decisions are only as good as the information you have. As your information changes, so should your decisions.

    New data = new decisions.

    At one point in my career I approached an Australian beauty media company to create a joint venture and launch their business in Europe. I partnered with a very close friend. Which made matters even worse when I started to realize that this is not the right path for me. It became my biggest founders f*kk up. Lots of money down the drain and a very close friendship ruined.

    So why did I no longer want to do it?

    I realized the legal setup was increasingly unideal for me.

    I learnt that my friend and I were not suited for the roles we were meant to take on.

    I learnt that what I was meant to do going forward in the business did not bring me joy.

    So in essence - I learnt A LOT.

    About myself.

    About friendships and work partnerships.

    About strengths in work and business.

    About fluffy ideas and the reality of founding a company.

    I hope you enjoy the conversation.. with myself.

  • How Lia de Feo turned her emotional journey of IVF, surrogacy, and loss into her purpose

    How Lia de Feo turned her emotional journey of IVF, surrogacy, and loss into her purpose

    · Mama, what's next?

    A journey of pain to purpose

    Imagine battling the heartache of infertility, navigating the complexities of IVF treatments, and lastly trusting someone else to carry your hopes for a family.

    Now imagine losing it all. Twice.

    This episode takes you deep into the raw, emotional journey of IVF, surrogacy, loss and grief.

    Hear how Lia struggled to balance her high-pressure career as an executive with fertility treatments and how she moved through unimaginable heartbreak into hope—and why the conversation around workplace support, surrogacy, and IVF is more urgent than ever.

    In todays episode of Mama, what's next? Lia de Feo shares her deeply personal journey through motherhood, fertility challenges, and the heartbreaking loss of her two children. She discusses the importance of self-advocacy in healthcare, and the importance of intuition when it comes to our own bodies. We talk about the complexities of surrogacy, and the emotional rollercoaster of IVF that many women have to go through. Lia talks about the need for support and understanding for those navigating similar paths and shares her mission to help others through their struggles.

    Ultimately, she reflects on how her own grief and heartbreaking experiences have moved her to connect even deeper with spirituality and explore what deeper meaning her journey could have. Ultimately asking herself the question: can I make something positive, out of my pain? This then led her to advocate for womens reproductive rights in New York and now she work on a book about her own journey and the history of reproductive rights.
