Chantal Challenger lives a different life from many of us, traveling around the world with her husband and two kids. She and her husband work in the hospitality/hotel industry, and have chosen a life as expats currently living in Jakarta. She shares about how they chose to move from their home in Australia, and how theyāve adapted to raising their family in a different culture.
She had her children in Singapore, which is a very different birth culture where up to 45% of births are c-sections. Chantal was surprised to learn that many women choose an elective c-section, and for her it posed a slight challenge in finding a doctor who was supportive of natural birth. She also talks about the breastfeeding culture which is also very different than what she thought, where most babies are fed formula as the ānormā. So when she wanted to breastfeed her babies, she often had other women asking her why she was doing something so abnormal.
It was fascinating to listen to Chantal talk about her life, and the cool thing about her was that sheās just another mom doing the best that she can, raising her children, being a wife, and living her day to day life just like all of us moms in the world.
What I love about Chantalās attitude and philosophy of life is how she makes choices even in the face of doubt and fear, with no regrets, and goes in with 100% commitment. We can only gain from following our hearts and going for it.

Anyone who has written their own book deserves lots of congratulations. And lots of book sales. Especially if it took them ten years to research and write it.
Well, that's what my husband Julian Wiseman has just completed. And it's now on sale.
It's called Port Vintages.
There's a lot of things that I didn't know about port wine. For example, I had no idea that it's not made every year. You'll learn more about that from this episode. I also didn't know what the differences are between Tawny Port, Crusted Port, Late Bottled Vintage Port, and finally, Vintage Port.
Many listeners have loved my past episodes with my husband (here and here), and I've had some requests that he continue to be a regular 'guest'. We always have fun with it, and it always seems like a good time to spend together.
Julian's book is a substantial and impressive reference book on Port Vintages. In fact, it's the only reference book on the subject. He went around to many different sources, including old libraries at universities, archives, department stores, auction houses, and many more. Ten years of researching and gathering data to find all the port vintages ever declared.
If you are a wine lover and you also enjoy port, this episode is so interesting with so much information about wine and Vintage Port. And you will see how much of a port geek he is.
Check out www.portvintages.com to buy your copy (or 10) of Port Vintages. Any questions or requests for bulk orders. email me at [email protected]
Enjoy!

Keith Wassung's got one of those stories. Ex-navy, super athlete, weightlifting champion, and on his way to fame, life was on a pretty extraordinary path. Then, at age 22, his body started to slowly break down, first with sinus headaches, then digestion problems, loss of hearing, and more, which eventually led him to be dependant on 18 different drugs. His health deteriorated so badly that he lost nearly all hope. He thought that was it. What more could he do? What saved him was a random chance encounter with a chiropractor who told him that he wanted to help him. Keith thought he was crazy. Whatās a chiropractor going to do for him?
Keithās story is incredible and inspiring. After regaining his health and getting back his strength from his regular chiropractic adjustments, his passion for sharing his experience with chiropractic was born. He researched and studied everything he could possibly learn about what chiropractic is, and how he can tell as many people as possible. And now, after 30 years of spreading the chiropractic message by selling information and educational material, he has built a huge empire and well-known brand within the chiropractic profession.
I remember being in chiropractic school hearing about Keithās work. In fact, I always thought he was a chiropractor himself and he had a huge practice. In the profession, he is well-respected and is often seen lecturing at some of the biggest and most popular chiropractic seminars in the world.
In this episode with Keith, he talks about his family, his six children, and his how he has built his life full of passion, prosperity, love, and dedication to serving and giving to people.
It was an honor to have him on my podcast. This is an awesome episode and I hope you enjoy it as much as I do!

Tomās the kinda guy that you can hang out with, have a beer with, and chat about anything. His energy fuels you each and every minute. Heās also the guy you could call up and ask his advice and heād give you his 100% with a solid answer. And heās also the guy youād see on a stage in front of thousands of people. Heās unstoppable.
In this episode, Iām speaking with Thomas Waller. Heās a dynamic successful chiropractor in Lincoln, UK and he owns and runs his practice with his wife Sarah (at the time of the recording, they were planning their wedding and about to get married). The very first time I heard about Tom was, serendipitously, a few years ago. A close friend of mine was in need of a good chiropractor and she asked me if I knew anyone near her in Bristol. So I asked some colleagues and everyone recommended Tom. He was practicing in Bristol at the time and he was highly recommended. I had no idea who he was. I just trusted my chiropractic friends. Each time I checked in with my friend, she told me how great Tom is and how he was helping her tremendously. She only said wonderful things about him. Over time, Tom kept on popping up on my radar on Facebook, as well as among mutual friends at seminars, yet I had never actually got the chance to meet him face to face.
I was so happy when Tom volunteered to be a part of my podcast to talk about fatherhood and parenting. I was so looking forward to what heād say about those topics, and I also knew weād spend a lot of time talking about chiropractic.
A few weeks after we recorded the episode, we finally got a chance to meet in person at a seminar. It was such a pleasure to do this episode with him, and Iām very much looking forward to following and supporting him in his plans, as well as our continued friendship.

Craig Peterson is American who lives in Rome Italy. Heās 35 years old and heās a Network Spinal Chiropractor. He is not a father, and heās in a relationship with a woman who doesnāt want children.

Brendan Waddington continues the conversation of fatherhood into the second episode of the series speaking to men.
There are so many people on this planet, and it's always such a joy and so much fun to speak to someone who you know is making a difference in the world. I just met Brendan and to me, he is an all around great guy. Intelligent, interesting, fun, totally got his shit together, and he has even written a book about no-bullshit health.
His new book is called āThe Wellness Bible, A No bullshit Guide to Wellnessā. His website is http://nobullshitwellness.com/
Brendan is a naturopath, soft-tissue therapist, personal trainer, and he also helps miners by coaching them on their health. When I asked him to be on my podcast, he didn't think I'd be interested because he's not a father. Naturally, it's what people would think, but I was very keen on having men who are not fathers to talk about their views on the subject. Brendan mentions that he definitely wants kids eventually, and it was interesting to hear how he thinks and feels about fatherhood.

Lillian Lartey is my guest in this last episode of 2017. Sheās a personal trainer, massage therapist, and I consider her a life coach for women because she is so grounded in her values and commitment to having an extraordinary life. She came over to record this episode, and it was wonderful to spend those 90-minutes together. So much of what she said was illuminating for me about womenhood, and motherhood. Lillian isnāt a mother, and yet, she has so much wisdom about it!
āIf we look from the central part of the world going eastwards, a lot of the time when it comes to parenthood, itās not just the mom taking total responsibility of that child or those children; youāve got a total village, youāve got a total town taking care of that child. So that mother doesnāt necessarily have those pressures that they do in the Western world. We also donāt have those pressures of wanting to get a really good job, wanting to have A, B, and C; Take the children to the best school, have the best clothes, have all this money, etc, go on the best holidays - all this pressure adds in. Why? Where as, when we appreciate our lives why weāre here, and that mum gives birth in a village to a child, everybody celebrates that. Thatās everybodyās child. Itās not just that mum whoās given birth to that child. Itās everybodyās responsibility.āLillian is a personal trainer, massage therapist, and I consider her a life coach for women because she is so grounded in her values and commitment to having an extraordinary life.
āFor mums, I believe, and having worked with mums in the type of work that I do, a majority of the time, if theyāre under that pressure to have to hand over their baby, at say, at 6 months, even a year, their bodies physically are not ready to let go. Because itās such an emotional trauma - one, in terms of when youāre pregnant and youāre carrying a child. Thereās so many hormonal activities going on. Two, when you give birth. And in three, through nursing that child. And that body, I believe, has to go through a process of recovery, and that includes when youāre doing the releasing of that child to go into someone elseās hands, in terms of going to school or going to nursery, taking care of the house, etc.ā
As a life coach, she has helped women, many of them mothers, to focus on themselves and to achieve happiness, building back their health, self-esteem, and love for life.
āIāve had women who wanna be super women, you know business women in particular are like, āOh yeah, I gave birth yesterday, and Iām here today and Iām treatinā my clients, Iām speaking to my clients, and Iāve got my baby on my boobā¦ā And I just think, āWhyā? In the Western world thereās this race to get back and to prove yourself that, āIām a strong woman and Iām going to be a responsible mother, and I can do it all.ā And then they crash and burn.ā

āI like to think I lead a very intentional life. And that isnāt that itās not open to surprises or spontaneity. But I very deliberately chosen ā¦ and Iāve been very lucky, I realize that when I say that. Not everyone gets to choose as much ācause thereās inherent struggle with being able to just to afford doing things like that. I get that. I love living by myself. I love setting my own hours. I love being able to keep everything clean and neat and how I want it. Thereās intention to those things. I really enjoy that."
Drea Clark lives in LA and works in film. She's my sister's best friend from highschool and we've known each other for a really long time. She's basically considered to be part of our family. I asked her to be on my podcast for this current series of conversations with women who are not mothers, and she was totally enthusiastic to participate.
I knew it would be a fantastic conversation, a fun one too, because Drea is just so articulate in just about anything.
Yeah.
You ask her about anything, and she'll have something to say about it.
And it usually makes you want to go, "Hmmmmm."
I love Drea.
She's fabulous.
In this episode, Drea opens up and tells it like it is, raw, and direct, sharing her views on why sheās not a mother and that sheās very happy in her life without children.
āYou should live your life in a way that you feel bad for other people for living it differently.ā
āOh my God. I had it so good. My parents are legit good parents, and they are a very loving couple. So itās ironic to me that Iām like, āOh you guys knocked it out of the park on both fronts. Do not take it personally that I am not replicating that,ā because I remember telling them years ago when I sort of knew that I wasnāt gonna have kids - I wanted them to know.ā

Angie is a successful therapist, working with individuals as well as companies, big and small. This episode was awesome, with so many interesting and thought-provoking nuggets of wisdom, ideas, and stories about motherhood and how we can shift our perspectives about it in the context of applying it to roles of leadership and life in general.
āThatās part of my mission, really, in working with everybody I do, is trying to get the word out that the more you can be with āstuckā the more youāre life is going to transform, because every time you go to learn something new, whether itās changing your golf swingā¦ changing a part of their skill, theyāre gonna go through a chaos phase as they relearn things. So if every time you see āstuckā as it means you did something wrong, youāre gonna back off and youāre not gonna get the learning. Itās important that we spread that - that stuckness means you are one step away from change.ā

She is also a prolific writer/author of many books, already published by herself and available on Amazon. Her most successful book is The Hairy Legged Mystery, a children's book about a mysterious creature with hairy legs.

My guest this week is Rachael Talbot-Frank. Rachael doesnāt have children of her own and is not a mother.
These last few weeks and in the next few episodes, the topic has been about women who do not have children. Iāll be speaking to women who share their story of not becoming a mother. Itās something I think people should hear about. Thereās always that uncomfortable, politically correct awkwardness that looms over us when we address it. Thereās always the elephant in the room and the curious, whatās her story? And I think many women who arenāt mothers donāt get a chance to tell theirs.
Rachaelās experience is possibly unique because for her, everything changed when she was twenty-one. Something happened to her body which she had to heal tremendously from on an emotional and mental level, not to mention learn how to cope on a physical level. This shift is what catapulted her relationship to herself as a woman without children. It also formed her view on the possibility of not having children and why she didnāt want to risk passing down her chronic illness. This made her believe that thereās a natural reason for her NOT to have children.
Inside her journey to heal from her illness, to experience shame that her body āfailedā her and then having to go through the process of whether or not she wanted to become a mother, Rachel has discovered her own power within herself as a woman who is nurturing, caring, beautiful, and owning her amazing body.
Listen to Rachel share her experience in the context of not being a mother and her unique story talking about health challenges and how sheās living a life she loves and continues to love.

Noreen Sumpter is a personal life coach who lives in Brooklyn. She and I have been close friends for nearly 20 years. She talks about how, since the age of 13, she knew she did not want to have children. I wanted to open up this conversation because it's just not something people often talk about. Maybe because it's not a very comfortable subject. Maybe because people just don't know what to say. It's not like you can just ask a woman (who isn't a mother), "So why don't you have any children?"
The Economist recently had an article on this very subject. Childless women are more common, significantly more than from the 1940s. The reasons range from choosing not to have children (desire not to), to medical reasons, and every possible scenario in between.
My guest today, Noreen Sumpter, shares her story and gives us her perspective of what motherhood is to her.
Enjoy!

āI think subconsciously I was looking for an outlet. I think I wanted a way out, and I wanted something more in my life, a creative outlet because I knew I wasnāt getting that from my career. So I was happy to take that time away, and then I had Noah and then it was just me at home with Noah and Yasmin. And I look back at that time and oh my gosh, it was so special.ā
Samina Courtin is the creator and owner of Mon Dessert, a London-based patisserie company. She specializes in beautiful and delicious macarons, and she has also designed cooking kits which she sells in Fortnum and Mason, Harrods, and other high-end specialty shops.
Samina is a mother of two adorable happy children, a girl and a boy, in primary school in Southwest London. Her husband is French and they met through mutual friends.
Her career started in a very male-centered in an e-commerce digital marketing company, using her interests in math and science. But she felt that something was missing. Working in the marketing industry wasnāt allowing her to explore her creative side.
āIt was strange. I was the first person to become pregnant in my company. It was a very young industry. You know, youāre thinking, it was 2009 and thatās when I first went on maternity leave. The internet world and how to monetize that and how to create e-commerce platform, it was just exploding. It was still a very young industry and I was one of the oldest there and I wasnāt even 30. And when I came back (from maternity leave), I think it was the financial crisis, literally I walked into the office and I didnāt recognize anyone. I felt like I was being given shoddy work, the stuff that nobody didnāt want to do. When I became pregnant with Noah, and I took my second maternity leave, obviously one after the other during a financial crisis, and they were like, āuh, we really would like you NOT (to do that) ā¦ā
Motherhood is what opened her natural artistic and creative side. Being at home with her two small children inspired her to start exploring her home skills, especially baking and cooking. She shares about how she started her company Mon Dessert and how she is living her multi-passionate and amazing life with her husband and two children.
Check out my episode with Samina listen to her fabulous and interesting story. Itās so amazing and colorful and ātastyā. Oui Oui!

[This episode is about miscarriage. Please understand that it may trigger sensitive emotions while listening, although the purpose of this episode is to spread the information about this topic so more women can learn about how common miscarriage is.]
Lara Martins is a principle in the London production of āThe Phantom of the Operaā. Lara is from Portugal, and studied theatre in the UK, and has been living in the UK for the last 20 years.
Iām so happy to have Lara here with me for this episode. In searching for more topics revolving motherhood and pregnancy, I believe that itās important to talk about all possible events relating to our experiences as women becoming mothers. One of them is miscarriage, which, for many people who do not know, it is quite common. Many women have experienced a miscarriage, and because of the sensitive emotional pain involved, most women do not know how to share their experiences.
When Lara accepted my invitation to be on my podcast, she was very open and generous in sharing her story about her miscarriage.
āWhen you have a miscarriage you donāt really think that because obviously miscarriage is quite a sensitive subject, and not many women talk about it. So you have no idea that having a miscarriage is quite common. It happens a lot. When you are confronted with a miscarriage it is very traumatic. Itās definitely one of the hardest things I had to deal with in my life. You know, the first thought you have is āwhat have I done wrong; did I provoke thisā and even though everybody tells you itās nothing you have done, itās nothing to do with you, itās just your body maybe rejecting something that was not viableā. BUt you just try to find the reason. You just want to know why; what have I done; What could I have done differently to have a different outcomeā.ā
āIt gave me great comfort when I was trying to recover from my miscarriage to know that actually this is so common, and talking to other women who had the same experience. Because then I didnāt feel like some kind of freak, or that I had some kind of problem.ā
āI think when you have a very easy pregnancy, and obviously, and all the women that have never had problems in their pregnancy and never suffered miscarriages, pregnancy can be a very naive thing in the sense that when you look at that pregnancy test and itās positive you think, āOh great, Iām going to have a baby,ā because you just had a pregnancy that was completely normal, nothing happened, everything was great, so you think, oh, this is going to be the same thing again. Itās not until something goes wrong that you understand that actually quite a lot of things that can go wrong, and then becoming pregnant again itās actually very very stressful.ā

If you have wondered what chiropractic care is, and how it can benefit you and your family, this is a great episode to listen to.
Dr Sarah: āSelf-responsibility [in regards to their health]: the allopathic health approach, as itās starting to implode on itself, more people are looking for that level of self-care which coincides with self-responsibility like, Iām going to take my health back into my own hands, then weāre the perfect health profession [chiropractic] to be there to meet them at that door. Because there are thousands health professions, and when we look at the allopathic health approach and youāre remaining passive within that, then thereās no sense of self-responsibility. Iām gonna go to you, youāre gonna tell me what Iāve got wrong, youāre gonna give me something, Iām gonna take that and itās gonna disappear. Thatās called a ātreatmentā where ātreatā means in its shortest form, itās creating an illusion that something doesnāt exist anymore. And then, when we go to the alter-NATE health approach, where chiropractic fits comfortably in this health approach, there is a level of self-responsibility. So if you can tap in to that sense of self-responsibility that everybody is searching for, then that positionās chiropractic in a way healthier arena to be able to meet those people where theyāre at as they are exiting this allopathic approach.ā
āWhen we have a parent is wanting to have their child checked, then the conversation is not necessarily, my child doesnāt have back pain. We have parents saying that I want my child to be the best they can be.ā
Dr Kelly: āUsually [in our office] what we hear is āI wish Iād heard about it sooner, I wish Iād known that there was a different way to do things.ā Often, itās quite cool, weāve had a couple of clients who have been in the office with their children getting checked. Thereās a little boy whoās 5-and-a-half and heās been checked every week since he was three weeks old. His mum is such a vigilante for chiropractic. Sheās such an advocate.ā

She has been helping families by educating them how to understand the chiropractic lifestyle and how it can help benefit their health.

I love recording an episode in person. It's always fun. Plus, guests can bring their adorable puppies.
Harriet Waley-Cohen came in with her little adorable puppy, who ended up sitting right in between us gnawing on her bone (which is what the sporadic faint clicking noises are in the background). We had a wonderful time talking about motherhood, adversity, learning to love life, being at the forefront of being unstoppable, and the concept of having it all.
"... because mothering isn't about mothering your own children. It's about mothering the planet. It's about mothering the human race. And when I think about all those teenage girls that I grew up with when we were teenagers, what would it have been like to have had awake, aware, honest, vulnerable women like you and I come and say, 'this is what I went through, this is what it was like, this is what it's really like out there as a grown up; let me take you by the hand and help you and give you all these tips' and to get to be that person for the current generation is awesome."
She talks about changing careers from banking to becoming a speaker and a coach. She shares her difficult birth and how her son didn't sleep for the first four months of his life, and how motherhood contributes to how she speaks in front of hundreds of people. She also shares how about overcoming addiction, and through this adversity led to her incredible strength and courage, and ultimately having a life she loves.

For the first time ever, and after a long period of discussing this, my husband (Julian) sits down with me and we record ourselves having one of our many conversations.
My husband is an intelligent dude. He went to Cambridge. He's a self-professed geek. He's good at math. And he also knows about a lot of things. People who know about a lot of things almost always think they are right. Trouble is, they aren't always right and it's nearly impossible to debate with these people.
I'm smart, but I'm not like my husband who knows a lot about a lot of things. He was the kind of kid that read 10 books a week starting from the moment he could read a full sentence. So over the years, he's consumed a lot of information.
I wasn't like that. I was a late bloomer. I didn't like reading until I was in college. And I think because of that, I was never good at debating or having conversations with really intelligent people. I'm not book-smart. I'm people-smart.
So, I thought it'd be fun to sit down and record a typical conversation between my husband and me. They tend to get heated, I often get loud and flustered, and he tends to be mostly factual (or he thinks he's being factual), but most of the time they are fun and silly, and entertaining.
Here we're talking about my last episode with Mandy Adams. I asked my husband to listen to it, hoping he'd get some insight from it, and instead, he came out analyzing the shit out of it.
That part of the conversation gets dull and boring, so we get a little bit sillier talking about what to say to a spouse when they've gained weight.
I hope you like it.

āItās coming from an approach of really trusting whatās really right for us, and hence the work that Iām standing in is allowing women to find their own unique voice, and the more that we stand in that as individuals then we become this collective awakened force of the feminine.ā
Mandy Adams is a menstruality educator.
What the hell is that, you ask.
Well, I seriously believe that if every woman and man understood this information that Mandy teaches and shares, the world would be in a much better state.
There is so much that our cultures do not understand about health, specifically the cycle of the womanās menstruality. And if information was taught and known almost automatically, such as taught in school, we would understand so much more about ourselves, our children, our lovers, our partners, our mothers, our sisters, our daughters, as well as our dynamic with boys and men in our lives.
Iām telling you. Listen to this.
And pay attention. Donāt do anything else but dedicate 100% of your attention on this episode.
Here are the books and authors recommended by Mandy Adams:
