Today my guest is Christine McAlister. Christine is passionate about helping impact-driven entrepreneurs attract their next clients by being value-driven podcast guests.
She's generated well over 6-figures as a podcast guest, and has been recognized as the best in the world at podcast guesting by 7-figure founders like John Lee Dumas, Dana Wilde, and more.
A media expert for 2 decades, she's helped broadcast the Olympic Games, produced an award-winning documentary for PBS, and has been featured in Inc., Business Insider, Bustle, The Huffington Post and on over 100 podcasts.
But today, I’m most excited to share her personal story, of loss, finding her purpose, and building a purpose driven life.
After having 3 miscarriages + fertility treatments, Christine finally got--and stayed--pregnant in 2014. At 9 months along w/ the carseat in the car and ready for her baby her world was shattered. On March 4th 2015, she lost her first daughter Maeve at full term.
As devastated as she was, she became determined to rise from the ashes and make her life worth living.
Today she is doing just that and more in making a difference in the world and creating a legacy for her and her daughter.
I feel so privileged to share this story with you today and hopefully open up a broader conversation around the difficulties rarely talked about in society around pregnancy.
With that enjoy
“Recognizing that we do have options, even when we don't feel like we do. I think that is key because if we felt trapped and stuck, we're not going to exercise any of our own agency.” - Christine McAllister
