RSB 37: Peta Kelly – Barefoot Badass Home Birth
Peta Kelly’s most favourite title is HUMAN AF. She is a conscious entrepreneur, author, speaker and philanthropist. She was recently featured in Forbes Magazine and was just ranked by Inc Magazine in the Top 10 Female Entrepreneurs changing the world. She’s is an unbridled soul and barefoot bandit on a mission to unleash the jeaniius of GenY’s globally. She dropped being a PhD science nerd at the age of 22 and went on the pursuit of that ‘thing’ that was calling her higher. That’s when she found her first business pursuit in network marketing and she became a 7 figure a year earner in Isagenix by the age of 26. Her network marketing journey led her to her bigger, more global, soul work and now she’s building a global enterprise, Jeaniius – a global hub of nakedly brilliant people, mobilized to create change for our planet through conscious enterprise and magical collaborations. Peta teaches the new way to live, lead, earn and give and what excites her the most is bringing her brilliant, badass generation together as one team and one family so that we can gift our planet and our kiddies an environment where they can thrive. Peta is an angel gifter and a silent investor, and thrives on expanding the cycle of abundance and contribution, especially when it allows young people to kick ass in their endeavours. A millennial with a love of millennials, Peta speaks on global stages, barefoot, to tens of thousands of people, and to millions through her various platforms, sharing visionary messages of conscious living to move hearts and minds to what’s possible. Self-described as an alien, a “vessel” for what needs to flow through her, Peta is the creator of The New Way Live, Jeaniius and The Supercharged, and her first book “Earth is Hiring’ is now available. Peta was recently featured on The Rise Up movie with Michael Bernard Beckwith, Jack Canfield, Danielle LaPorte, Gabby Bernstein, Marie Forleo, Tony Robbins, The Dalai Lama and more. She’s a new Mum to her beautiful daughter Sol and has now found a new supersized passion for empowering women to create a beautiful pregnancy and birth experience. www.petakelly.com Book: https://petakelly.com/earth-is-hiring Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/petak https://www.facebook.com/jeaniius Instagram: petajean_/jeaniius Twitter: @petajean_ The post RSB 37: Peta Kelly – Barefoot Badass Home Birth appeared first on The Wellness Couch.

RBR 27 – Cindy Fenn – My Unintentional Undisturbed Birth

RBR 27 – Cindy Fenn – My Unintentional Undisturbed Birth
The Unexpected Birth Journeys series of Rockstar Birth Radio is about births that did not go exactly as expected. However, more importantly it is of mothers who have moved through their experience with grace and wisdom and an empowering message to share with you. In this episode, Cindy Fenn shares her unintentional undisturbed homebirth. Cindy has a Bachelor in Early Childhood Education, and is in what she feels is her most important teaching role, bringing up her two little boys with her partner, in Melbourne. Her business Big Hearted Birth teaches women and their birth partners Hypnobirthing Australia Childbirth Education courses in Melbourne, Australia. In these courses she teaches couples knowledge about the childbirth process, as well as tools for labour such as, breathing, massage, visualisation, relaxation, affirmation and self- hypnosis. She believes that birth that is woman-centred, drawing on instinctual physiology and where a woman feels the experience was a positive one, possibly even a “life highlight” gives them a platform to move more confidently forward in the kaleidoscope of life experience, after birth. Cindy is passionate about voice in birth, and nurturing positive self-identity, social competence, wellbeing and a love of learning of children in the very early years of childhood.

RBR 26 – Amy Burke – Addison’s Unexpected Journey
The Unexpected Birth Journeys series of Rockstar Birth Radio is about births that did not go exactly as expected. However, more importantly it is of mothers who have moved through their experience with grace and wisdom and an empowering message to share with you.  Amy Burke was seeking a low-intervention natural birth with her first child until she unexpectedly experienced a seizure during labour before ultimately birthing her daughter via caesarean birth. If you are pregnant then now may or may not be the right time for you to hear Amy’s birth story, however rest assured that she shares it with an incredible sense of gratitude and love.  Amy is a Melbourne-based Mama with a big heart for healthy living, conscious collaboration and helping Women, especially Mother’s do work they love whilst having the freedom to be there for their families. She launched her blog Mother Love Melbourne to share stories, recipes and the work of other incredible Mama’s out there. Since having her Daughter Addison in Oct’15 Amy realised that many ‘motherhood’ sites and blogs can be a not so nice, judgemental space and wants Mother Love Melbourne to shine a light and help Mama’s feel empowered by their Birth, Feeding and Child Raising choices.    Facebook – facebook.com/motherlovemelbourne/ Instagram – @motherlovemelbourne Snapchat – motherlovemelbs Website – motherlovemelbourne.com.au The post RBR 26 – Amy Burke – Addison’s Unexpected Journey appeared first on The Wellness Couch.
