122 | Mother The Mother Coaching: Encouraging Freedom & Empowerment in all phases of Life
12/11/24 • 28 min
In this episode of Mother the Mother, McLean McGown explores the struggles and triumphs of embracing a multifaceted life as a woman, mother, and entrepreneur. Do you feel torn between your diverse passions and society’s pressure to specialize? McLean shares her own journey of weaving together roles in yoga, nutrition, doula work, and hypnosis, proving that a rich and authentic life defies traditional labels.
At the core of her message is the importance of nervous system regulation and redefining freedom. McLean reminds us that true success isn’t just financial—it’s addressing the deeper challenges that keep us stuck in fear or indecision. She offers practical insights to help you step out of analysis paralysis and create a life that honors your talents and values. Through embodiment, clear communication, and seeing children as our greatest teachers, McLean inspires listeners to lead with intention and embrace their unique paths with confidence.
Quotes:
● “Everything that I do, teach, share, and support is based on your autonomy—your freedom to show up how you want to show up.”
● “If we're just a shell of ourselves, barely getting by, scraping through each day, not loving our lives, not feeling happy, content, or safe in our marriages and relationships, not being the mom we always dreamed of being, if we're yelling, feeling like a raw nerve, ready to blow up if one more thing happens—if we aren't nurturing ourselves, it spills out into everything.”
● “Our children are our greatest teachers, not just for the unique lessons they bring to us, which they do. It's also the opportunity to explore parts of ourselves that we haven't yet, that we didn't make space for, and possibly didn't even know were there.”

121 | Free To Be You And Me
In this powerful episode of Mother the Mother, McLean McGown takes a heartfelt look at what it means to truly be free in today’s challenging world. Reflecting on personal and collective experiences of trauma and constraint, she raises a profound question: What does freedom mean to you? Is it living authentically, free from societal expectations, or having the courage to follow your own path despite criticism?
Sharing her own journey of transformation, McLean explores the importance of reclaiming sovereignty and speaking your truth, even when it feels difficult. She encourages listeners to invest in their personal growth and healing, offering hope and guidance for becoming a source of light and strength for others during times of change. As the structures around us shift in the Aquarian Age, McLean’s message inspires us to embrace life’s uncertainties and create a reality that aligns with our deepest values.
Quotes:
● “If I'm not sharing my lived experience, if I'm not sharing my truth with you all, then you don't know how I can be of service to you.”
● “When I speak my truth, that's when I connect. That's when I connect on a soul level with the people I'm meant to be with.”
● “You've got to bet on yourself. You need to invest in yourself and truly believe, because you are your best instrument.”

Paden Hughes Guest Links:
Paden is an intuitive life coach, energy healer, best-selling author, and founder of Liberated Lightworker, a channeled system for clearing karma and dense energies. She is also the host of her own podcast called 100% Woo Podcast. She has helped dozens of high powered, burned out career women step out of hustle and embrace a life of liberation and flow. Paden has worked with over 100 CEO’s, founders, influencers and professionals looking to optimize their performance by going beyond conventional, patriarchal wisdom and tap into their intuition and psychic gifts.After working with 7-9 figure business leaders in her 20’s as a business consultant, and then growing her own business (Gymnazo) to 7 figures by the age of 30, Paden face planted in her kitchen from chronic stress. The combination of running businesses and being a “good enough” mom to two kids under 4 was too much for her body to handle. And it got her attention by collapsing. This put her on a new trajectory of spiritual awakening and she started to take two hours a day to walk in nature and heal her higher performing, people pleaser, boss bitch masking. Slowly she started to remember who she was and who she came here to be, which turned out to be less about business and far more about magic.Spirituality was the missing link. Remembering the transformative power of feminine intuition and going back into her Celtic ancestral roots to unlock the gifts she was taught as a pastor’s kid to doubt. Paden is now dedicated to helping women remember their inner wise woman and teaches how to use intuition and tools like pendulums to unlock magic in our lives and businesses.
