Ep27 Unexpected Expectations with Noella Medalla
from Sage Conversations Hosted by Mara and Podcast Network Asia
Many of us can relate when it comes to life taking an unexpected turn. Sage Conversations Season 2 Finale is with Noella Medalla, or Elle, founder of Unexpected Expectations, and is joined (unexpectedly but pleasantly) by her son Luciano! She bravely walks us through the time she got pregnant in 2019 - something she had initially felt ashamed about given her background and “social norms” that were ingrained in her back then. She shares her internal mindset and belief shift, recognizing that it was also through faith and God’s love that had helped her. Unexpectedly still, she got moral support around her through her parents and her boyfriend-now-husband. Deep down she knew, as she was opening up to her new calling to motherhood, that she had to also be more aware of these negative feelings that no longer served her knowing the baby would feel these, too. Now having been through this, and how happy she is and has been with her child, she’s founded Unexpected Expectations to help unexpected expectant mothers in their own journey. She points out that while there is a big mother tribe for mothers-to-be, there is a need for this space for those who had not planned this or may still have feelings of shame about their pregnancy. She is currently building a program for new moms to build confidence and certainty in embracing their role as a stay-at-home boss mom. www.instagram.com/unexpectedexpectations www.facebook.com/unexpectedexpectations
