This is your Strong Women Podcast podcast.
Welcome to the Strong Women Podcast. Today, I want to dive straight into what qualities truly define a strong woman and explore how mindfulness can help us develop each one, turning intention into everyday power.
When we envision a strong woman, we’re talking about someone who radiates resilience, confidence, empathy, adaptability, and authentic self-awareness. These are not just ideals—they’re skills and mindsets that can be nurtured with the right tools. Starting with resilience: strong women bounce back from setbacks—not by shielding themselves from pain, but by facing it and transforming it into growth. Mindfulness is key here. By learning to stay present, noticing our thoughts and feelings without being overwhelmed by them, we create a space to respond thoughtfully instead of reacting impulsively. This is how resilience becomes second nature.
Confidence often seems like a mysterious force, but it is built with small acts of self-acknowledgment every day. Women like Michelle Obama and Maya Angelou exemplify confidence that is deeply rooted—not loud, but steady and undeniable. Mindful practices—such as daily meditation or simply pausing to check in with yourself—help us recognize negative self-talk and let it go. Observing self-criticism as just another passing thought means it doesn’t have to define us. With each mindful breath, we reinforce our sense of worth.
Empathy sets strong women apart. Jacinda Ardern, for example, has shown that true leadership is about listening as much as speaking. Mindfulness helps us listen fully, not just to others but to ourselves. When we practice being present in conversation—instead of planning our reply—we attune deeply to what others are experiencing, strengthening bonds in our families and communities.
Adaptability and a growth mindset are vital today. Change is inevitable, but strong women meet it with curiosity and flexibility, not fear. Mindfulness teaches us to notice our automatic reactions to change, so instead of resisting or shutting down, we can consciously choose our next step. Whether you are navigating a career move or family challenge, being present allows you to find opportunity in every shift.
It all comes together with authentic self-awareness. A strong woman is honest with herself, acknowledging both her strengths and her areas for growth. Mindfulness shines a gentle light on our inner world. Journaling, breathwork, and quiet reflection can reveal patterns we’re ready to change and help us move forward anchored in our true values.
Every woman has the capacity to embody these qualities. Start by carving out just a few minutes a day for mindful breathing, a short walk, or a moment of gratitude journaling. If you find yourself facing a tough decision, pause and tune in to what’s really going on inside. Over time, resilience, confidence, empathy, adaptability, and self-awareness become not just qualities, but a way of being.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
