EP015: Gemma Went on how belief + trust = the secret to happiness & success
Gemma Went is a shepherdess of overwhelmed entrepreneurs, a master at finding her way out of challenging situations, and a woman of clear sight and immensely generous heart. She’s also a being of exceptional talent and resources who found herself single, pregnant, out of a job and living in a friend’s spare room at 42 years of age.
Her journey from there to where she is today with her beloved son Jack, a beautiful blended family and a thriving business is a story worth hearing. In today’s episode Gemma and I talk about how she got from “holy crap, what now??” to “I’ve got this and we’re good” in a short amount of time, how belief is the key to everything and how cracking open the walls around her heart led not only to her incredible bond with Jack but also opened the door to a love beyond what she could have imagined.
Listen as Gemma talks about how when everything hit the fan, her deep trust in herself and faith that she’d be supported by the Universe if she kept moving forward propelled her to happiness, financial freedom and success. I loved Gemma’s reminder that if we question and face into the stories we tell ourselves and the things that trigger huge reactions in us, we can learn and heal very old wounds and move on from there to greater happiness.
Trigger alert: we talk about sexual abuse and bullying and some of our conversation may be upsetting to survivors. We also use some colourful language so best to listen with headphones for this episode!

We need to have more brave, honest conversations about the challenges, surprises, frustrations, pains and celebrations of life as women and as mothers. We need to talk about it all without shame, blame or guilt. So we all know we’re normal. That our struggles aren’t ours alone. That we’re seen and held. That’s why I created MamaFuel: The Podcast — to make sure there’s no mama left behind.
If you love listening to MamaFuel: The Podcast, THANK YOU, BEAUTIFUL!! It makes me so happy to know that the conversations I share are reaching your precious ears.
I’d be thrilled if you’d leave me a review, so the podcast can raise even more mamas around the world. Don’t know how to do it? No worries.
