Madelyn Carafa is a mother of two, the creator behind the networking event Magnetic Woman Dinner Party, and the host of the podcast Magnetic with Madelyn (formerly The Healthy Hustlers).
I connected with Madelyn when I did a podcast course with her last year and we founded a genuine friendship. I love her authenticity, kindness, creativity and her belief in ‘trusting the unfolding.”
In this episode she shares:
- How she of becoming an actress and nearly landed a role on Home and Away.
- Why missing out on that role led her to America, which became a pivotal turning point in her life.
- How motherhood has brought deep joy, but also significant self-sacrifice.
- Why her second pregnancy initially felt like a mistake
- How her son ultimately became one of the greatest blessings and taught her resilience and strength.
- How she continues to work through a profound fear of judgment and the feeling of not being enough.
- The reason moving to the Gold Coast transformed her family’s happiness
- Why she believes in “trusting the unfolding” and letting go of the need to control everything.
- Why creating supportive communities for women has become central to her purpose.
