Questioning our self worth appears to be part of the human experience. Do we deserve success, how are we to think we can do whatever we set our mind to, will people really listen, can I really go after exactly what I want.
Imagine then coming into this world unwanted, as a girl born into an Indian family in India, and being raised by your grandmother in a culture which places both no and onerous expectations on how girls and women should behave.
Manna Abraham’s extraordinary faith in the work she does now belies both the sensational global career she carved out - and she is that little Indian Girl, with every reason to sink into a feeling of being lost and powerless, overwhelmed by life’s challenges.
Manna navigated her way out of cultural norms, lack of expectation, and no family or community support by finding a way to believe in herself and redefined the meaning of challenging moments — that instead of a cue to give up, they are a way of finding a different path with more confidence than before.
In this episode of the Raise 1000 Voices podcast, we’ll talk with Manna about why having inner strength matters and discuss practical strategies for finding it within ourselves. We dive into how letting our inner strength shine through can positively shape our lives - giving us the courage to try new things, take risks, and be more resilient in the face of setbacks.
It’s about believing in yourself and your power—knowing you can handle anything life throws, remembering building inner strength is a journey that starts with simple, small steps. And in this episode we share with you just how to start taking them.
