When Life Looks “Right” on Paper: Honoring Your True Path with Magda Labonte-Blaise

Episode Summary

This week, I’m joined by the incredible Magda Labonte-Blaise — a special education attorney, filmmaker, actor, and the creator of the Phenomenal Everyday Women podcast and The Rebirth Method. Her story is a powerful reminder that you don’t need a dramatic breakdown, a toxic job, or a “perfectly logical reason” to want something different. In this conversation, Magda and I talk about: ✨ What it’s like when your life looks “right” on paper… but still feels wrong ✨ How she realized her dream had shifted ✨ The surprising role water plays in her grounding and inspiration ✨ Why rest matters more than any productivity hack ✨ How moms can honor themselves without abandoning what they’ve built ✨ The messy, beautiful process of coming home to yourself Magda also shares the story behind The Rebirth Method — the framework she created after walking through her own season of feeling lost, depleted, and misaligned — and how she now helps women trust themselves, validate their own desires, and create lives that feel deeply joyful and true. This episode is a permission slip: You don’t need a crisis. You don’t need anyone’s approval. You don’t need your life to “make sense on paper.” You’re allowed to want more — simply because you want more.
