Rockstar Mom Podcast Welcome
SPEAKER_00You are listening to the Rockstar Mom, a podcast for high achievers who are ready to get off of autopilot and live a life with more intention, peace of mind, and happiness. This is a space to expand, dig deep, get clear, and take action towards living your most authentic, aligned life. I'm Megan Caldwell. As a mom of three, two-time burnout survivor and empowerment coach and speaker, I've cracked the code on what it actually takes to thrive at work and home. Ditch perfectionism and people pleasing, get your schedule under control, and live with more ease. So you've got more time and energy to do the things you love without the mom guilt. It's time to get out of your head and into action. Now is the time to live your most rock star life. Let's go. Hello, hello, my friend. Oh, I'm so excited. Uh, one, for you to be here with me today on the Rockstar Mom podcast, and two, because I am giving you a preview of one of my favorite things that I create for you all. We are getting ready to, in fact, at this point, it's taken off. Season three of the Rockstar Mom Summit is open for registration. This is a completely free event, and I'm going to be breaking down for you in this short episode a little bit about what you're going to get out of this if this event is for you. And so let's get going. So if you feel that you have checked all of the boxes, if you have done the things you think you should do, if you're finding yourself in the thick of career and motherhood and life, if you're feeling like, well, maybe things are good, but what would it look like for things to be even better? This event is for you. I want to start by just telling you a quick story. I'm going to take you back about eight years ago or so. I was at the height of my last career, which I owned and operated a fitness franchise that was geared for moms. And it was one of the best seasons of my life. I grew an instructor team of 14. We had classes all around the Portland metro area. I was featured on news stations because we were just making such great impact. And it truly was one of my dream jobs, if you will. It really combined my passion for wellness and fitness, as well as education, as well as being able to spend time with my kiddos. And I was in this space for for quite some time. I actually owned my franchise for almost nine years. And about five years into this, I was nominated to submit a video for franchisee of the year. So that basically was an invitation to say, hey, Megan, you're doing amazing things. Let's see what you're up to. And maybe you're going to be voted as the top franchisee in the country. So, anyways, this was kind of exciting to me. I was about five years into my business. Again, we were making big impact. We have hundreds of clients. And my team put together an amazing, amazing video. It showcased what we were doing at our workout classes. It showcased the service events that we did and the social events. Just really a big piece of this franchise space that I operated for so long was all about community, which I'm sure at this point you know is still so, so, so important to me, like the Rockstar, your Rockstar Life community that I run for women who are looking to really take their lives to the next level. So, anyways, we put together this video. The video gets and the application gets submitted. And lo and behold, a couple weeks later, I get a call from our CEO, and she said, Megan, congratulations. We have recognized you as one of the top three franchisees. And it was one of those moments where I was like, I don't know. I've been leaning into manifestation. I feel like I felt it coming. And it also was like, whoa, like, is this real? Like, there were over 300 franchises in the country, and they selected me as one of the top three. So they said, pack your bags, come to our national conference in a couple months, and we'll be announcing the winner on stage. So, anyways, I fly down to San Diego for the national conference. I was able to bring a couple of my team members. And the night of the awards banquet, I was standing up on stage alongside the other two nominees, and I'm looking out at this crowd of amazing women. There's probably a couple hundred women in the audience, and they're doing our quick bios and showing glimpses of the videos we put together. And as I stood up there, I wasn't feeling excitement. I wasn't even curious or thinking about like, am I gonna take home the award? Which, spoiler alert, I actually didn't. What came to mind was the question that came to my mind, the feeling I had was, is this it? I was in a position within my organization that I was nominated for the biggest award that we could get. And my brain in that moment was saying, Is this ni, is this it? Because for years I was chasing that next promotion. I was chasing the next gold star. And it was almost like when I got to it, I'd be like, Okay, yes, I'm enough. I've got this. This is success. But rather in that moment, I wasn't feeling that. And that moment was really a turning point for me to recognize despite having checked all the boxes, despite so much outward success on the inside, I actually felt like I was drowning. There was so much misalignment between the energy I was putting out and how people would say on a daily basis, Megan, you just have it all put together with the business and the kids and the spouse and the home. But on the inside, I was living out of alignment. I was exhausted. There was a lot of negative self-talk going on. And that actually kickstarted the start of my own personal development journey. And I share that story with you because I know what it's like to be running on empty, to not feel aligned in your own life, to be like, take a look at the in the mirror and be like, who is this person? This is not what I anticipated. And this upcoming season of the Rockstar Mom Summit season three, I am just, I've put this together in my hopes that something amidst one of the speakers, one of the conversations, one of the interviews that I've conducted will land for you. Something is going to inspire you to take that next step to get off the hamster wheel of exhaustion and overwhelm and really start to step into your most rockstar life. You know that that's what we're about here on the Rockstar Mom podcast. So this again is season three, and people are like, wow, that's a lot of work, Megan. And yes, yes, it is to bring on 25 to 30 speakers, conduct 25 to 30 speaker interviews, all the tech behind the scenes. I am so blessed to have an amazing team supporting me on the backside. But one of the reasons I continue to show up and do this is my mission with it is just so clear for me is I want every single listener, every single attendee of this event, it's all virtual, by the way, pre-recorded, do it on your own time, to get into action. And I have received such great feedback from our past attendees that that inspires me to keep doing this. And so I have brought together an amazing, amazing lineup of speakers to help women feel seen and to help you recognize that oftentimes we get ourselves in these silos and we're trying to do it on our own. But everything that you're gonna get in the Rockstar Mom Summit, um, it's not fluff, it's actual tangible takeaways. Speakers are sharing their actual frameworks and formula that high-ticket paying coaching clients would pay them to learn how to use. So again, this summit is really more than just content. And I'll share a little bit in just a second about how it's organized to help you be set up for most success. What I want to say though is that the, as I shared, the main theme of this is to really help you get into action. And so you can feel like yourself again, to help you learn how to ditch overwhelm, perfectionism, people pleasing, to get your schedule under control, so you have more time and energy to do the things you love without the mom guilt. Again, I've brought on speakers and experts and doctors and authors, just these amazing, amazing human beings who are just as passionate as I am about helping you get out of the cycles of overwhelm and really reconnect to what's most important to you. So you have more energy, more peace of mind, more presence. And so you can truly live a life of fulfillment, even when life feels way too busy. So if you've attended the Rockstar Mod Summit in the past, our format is very similar. I've only brought on a couple repeat speakers that were like so loved. And then otherwise, I've got tons of brand new speakers. So a couple of our repeat favorites: Chelsea Joe Moore, Lori Oberbruckling, Steph Lopez. But then again, you've got another kind of smorgasboard of amazing experts sharing their knowledge. This event really is for you if you consider yourself a high achiever, maybe a recovering perfectionist, type A, an ambitious mom who has maybe most of your life put together on the outside, but on the inside, you feel that sense of chaos or self-sabotage, or you just don't feel like yourself. Or maybe you've checked all the boxes and feel like something is missing. This is definitely for the person who, you know, often gets to the end of the day, feels exhausted, and is like, oh my gosh, I have to do this again. My goal is to help you get out of these cycles. Oftentimes I hear from my clients, it's like, I can't be present at work or at home. When I'm at work, I'm thinking about my kids. When I'm at home, all I'm thinking about is work. And there are so many great golden nuggets in these conversations as part of the Rockstar Mom Summit, not to mention thousands of dollars of free gifts that you get access to just for signing up to help you get into action. So we're gonna be diving into topics like managing the emotional overwhelm. I've got a couple experts again on nervous system regulation. I know that this is something that we definitely talk about and tackle in our YRL community, your Rockstar Life, but I've got some true experts on there because we know nervous system and emotional regulation are everything. We've got some who are talking more to kind of identity and purpose and thinking about what's next. So if you're feeling like you're in a season of transition or something is kind of itching under the skin, you're gonna love those conversations. I've got burnout experts and energy experts. And another piece which I see time and again again within my community and just in conversation with other women that I'm in contact in contact and in conversation with is just how relationships can sometimes be so draining to us, even the ones that are closest to us. So maybe you've been feeling agitated or irritated or on the verge of blowing up, trouble communicating with either your spouse or your kids. There's something for you in this summit, too. There's a lot about relationships, communications, boundaries. Um, I've got an expert who's come, who's we had a fantastic conversation all about clutter, both house clutter, but also other types of clutter, such as emotional clutter, energy clutter, that type of thing. Our our episodes on perimenopause always get a lot of traction, a lot of likes, because I know many of you are within that season of life right now. I have a fantastic guest who talked all about spirituality and motherhood. We've got experts on career and motherhood, or maybe you're a business owner, some specific sessions for you. The one thing I love about this is again, I know that I am working with you who is the high achiever, who's often overwhelmed and has a lot on the plate. Some big benefits to you in terms of this event is there is a lot out there, but it's an invitation for you to pick and choose, kind of left like a buffet. So if you're like, I'm really in a space of really trying to learn about my physical health, hormones, perimenopause, great. Sign up for free and just access those couple episodes that will speak directly to you. Or maybe you're the person who likes to kind of think, again, I bring on a variety of experts because I am all about holistic wellness. That's how we step into our most Rockstar Life. Maybe you want to listen to most of them. That's also cool. You've got extended listening time. By the way, it's not video, you're not looking at PowerPoints. It's literally earbud in as you're driving your kid to soccer. But you've got extended listening time. Each episode is live for a full seven days. And there is an option for lifetime access for a small price if that's something that you're interested in. But again, we've had such amazing feedback from past attendees. I just wanted to share a couple things that people said because I know that there are so many free events like this out there. So I really want to help you determine is this an event that is gonna feel good for you and feel like it's worth your time? If you're listening to the this podcast, I would like to think that it is. But past attendees said, I'm enjoying the Rockstar Mom summit so much. Another one said, This was all quite amazing. Well done. I'm beyond impressed with each person you had on, as well as you. Again, there's something magical about when we come together in community. One of my goals in business and in life is collaboration. And this truly is a collaborative event where I'll be sharing some of my stories and my frameworks and how I work with clients, but you're gonna be hearing so much magic from others as well. Another past attendee said it was great. I loved all the speakers. It's the most I've ever engaged in an online event. Another one said this has something for everyone. They said they definitely recommend it because it was well spread out and more manageable to take in. Two more I'll share with you. I would recommend the Rockstar Mom Summit to a friend since it delves into multiple facets or parts of creating and maintaining a healthy balance between work, home, and relationships. That's what this is about, my friends, is to help you thrive in all areas of your life, not just kick ass at work or not just to be able to keep your house together, but how do we fully show up as our best? I know it's possible because I've shifted into that way of living. And now I have the privilege of supporting other women in this deep work as well. Last one, would you recommend this to a friend? Absolutely. There were gems in every episode. If nothing more, my hope and wish for you is that you sign up for this fun, free event where you get access to these truthfully like expert interviews and conversations where my goal is even if you only take one golden nugget away, it's going to change your life. It's going to change your life. I can't guarantee it, but I almost can guarantee it. As well, I think I mentioned you also get access to every single speaker has gifted attendees a free gift. These are everything from their masterclasses to full-on playbooks or books. It's worth thousands and thousands of dollars. So again, you're gonna walk away from this event with practical tools, clarity on what you actually want. You'll actually feel more calm and groundedness because you're gonna, there's gonna be some space for you to really check in with yourself. And one of the biggest reasons we do this is so you feel less alone because we know that being a working mom is hard. And together we can come together.
