Many women are known as the strong one.

The one who always shows up. The one who solves problems. The one who holds everything together.

But behind that strength, there is often an invisible truth.

Strong women sometimes learn to carry everyone else while slowly abandoning themselves.

In this episode of The Mindset Twist Podcast, we explore the hidden cost of always being the strong one, and why true strength is not about doing everything alone.

You will discover: • Why many strong women struggle to receive support • How strength can turn into self-abandonment • How to reconnect with yourself without guilt

This episode also includes a guided meditation to help you come back to yourself.

Because real strength is not about carrying everything.

It is about learning that you deserve support too.

Vive Intensamente.

It’s more than a quote. It’s a decision.

In this episode, I talk about what it really means to live intensely — and no, it’s not about doing more, being louder, or chasing adrenaline.

It’s about depth. Presence. Alignment. Courage.

If you’ve been feeling like you’re just going through the motions… this one is for you.

Show Notes

Most people are alive. But not everyone is living.

In this episode, I share what “Vive Intensamente” truly means to me — especially after entering a new decade of life. Living intensely isn’t chaos. It’s awareness. It’s surrender. It’s choosing alignment over autopilot.

We talk about:

• Why intensity is about depth, not drama
• The difference between being busy and being present
• How stillness can be powerful
• The courage it takes to live awake
• Small, aligned actions you can take today

Living intensely doesn’t require a new country, a new job, or a dramatic life change.

It starts with:

• Saying what you actually mean
• Setting honest boundaries
• Choosing peace over performance
• Refusing to abandon yourself

This episode is your reminder: You were not created to live half-present. You were created to live fully.

Reflection Questions

If you were truly living intensely:

• What would you stop tolerating?
• What would you say out loud?
• Where are you playing small?
• What aligned action can you take this week?

Vive Intensamente. Always. 💛

A moment to pause, release, and arrive

This short meditation is an invitation to slow down and come back to yourself.

It’s not about fixing, planning, or pushing forward — it’s about honoring where you are and how far you’ve come.

Through gentle breath and awareness, you’re guided to release tension, soften the body, and create space for reflection. A quiet pause to close the year with presence and open the next season with trust.

✨ Best listened to in a calm, uninterrupted space. ✨ Allow yourself these few minutes — they matter.

Release. Reflect. Trust.

As this year comes to a close, this prayer and guided meditation invite you to slow down — not to evaluate your year by results, but to honor it for what it has taught you.

This is a space to:

• release pressure and unmet expectations
• give thanks for the growth that happened quietly
• acknowledge the strength built in moments of waiting
• reconnect with faith, trust, and inner guidance

You don’t need to have everything figured out. You don’t need to carry this year into the next one unchanged.

Through gentle reflection, breath, and prayer, you’re guided to close this chapter with gratitude and step forward with clarity, grace, and trust in what’s unfolding.

✨ Best listened to in a quiet space. ✨ Perfect before choosing your Word of the Year or setting intentions.

Allow this moment to be your pause — before what’s next begins.

On social media, entrepreneurship often looks glamorous: sold-out programs, launches, travel, freedom, “I love my life” posts.

But behind every big win, there’s a side most business owners don’t talk about online.

In this episode of The Mindset Twist Podcast, Marixanne Martina takes you behind the scenes of the entrepreneurial journey — the beautiful and the ugly. She opens up about the emotional weight, the invisible pressure, the quiet loneliness, and the inner work that comes with building something from your heart.

You’ll hear about:

• The beauty of entrepreneurship: impact, freedom, creativity and purpose
• The “ugly” side: pressure, self-doubt, fear, and feeling like you’re not enough
• The loneliness of making big decisions and carrying responsibility
• How entrepreneurship forces you to grow faster than you expected
• Why the hard moments are actually shaping your leadership and identity
• A reminder that you’re not behind, not failing — you’re becoming

If you’re in a season where business feels heavy, this episode is your reminder that you’re not alone… and that the unseen battles are part of your transformation.

In this empowering episode, Marixanne Martina — mindset coach, educator, and founder of The Mindset Expert — reveals why gratitude isn’t just a feeling, but a mental strategy that rewires your perspective, your emotions, and your results.

She breaks down the science and soul behind gratitude, sharing how this daily practice activates creativity, optimism, and resilience — and how shifting your focus from what’s missing to what’s working can unlock growth in both life and business.

Through a real coaching story and a practical nightly gratitude challenge, Marixanne shows how to turn gratitude into your secret performance tool — because the real flex isn’t hustling harder, it’s learning to appreciate deeper.

In this heart-centered episode, Marixanne invites you to rediscover the quiet power of gratitude — not as a fleeting emotion, but as a daily mindset that transforms how we see life.

Through a personal story of navigating challenging times, she shares how writing down small moments of gratitude reshaped her energy, her focus, and her sense of peace. You’ll learn how to use gratitude as a tool to reframe struggles, reconnect with presence, and find beauty even in uncertainty.

This is your reminder that gratitude isn’t about perfection — it’s about presence. It’s about finding the gold in the ordinary and choosing to grow through what you go through.
