Here, There, Everywhere.

Erin Hughes

Introducing: Here, There, Everywhere. A space for brutally honest conversations about identity, ambition, motherhood, and everything that shifts after becoming a mum. Each week, I sit down with incredible women to unpack the reality behind their lives: The good, the hard, the messy, and everything in between. No filters. No pretending. Just real stories and raw conversations about the things no one else is saying out loud. This podcast is about empowering the woman behind the mum, giving her the confidence to back herself, own who she is, and go after what she wants without judgement. Because this isn’t about perfection. It’s about the real and raw moments in between. Join me each week as we build a powerful community of women who are showing up, speaking honestly, backing themselves, and doing life their way. I can’t wait for you to be part of it.

    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. Key Quotes “I found out I was pregnant with my son, and I was just, like, devastated. Like, I was honestly devastated.” “I had two kids under three at home full time while I, you know, still had all my own dreams and ambitions, and I’m, like, trying to record in the walk-in robe at night times and get back to emails.” “I had a massive, massive fear of judgment, and moving into the online world, like, the rewiring of my mind that I had to do and continue to do has been relentless at times.” More about Madelyn Follow her on Instagram, her website or check out her podcast Magnetic with Madelyn.
