Mindful Miri Podcast
You’re not just a woman. You’re a force.
Welcome to Mindful Miri—the podcast for women who are raising hell, crafting the lives of their dreams, and doing their best to stay intentional every step of the way.
Hosted by Miriam Burlakovsky, mental health practitioner, mindfulness teacher, and mama who gets it, we dive into raw, real conversations about ambition, gender roles, burnout, body image, boundaries, breaking generational cycles, and more.
It’s where soul meets strategy. Sass meets science. Mindfulness meets making sh*t happen.
And through it all, we’re here to build you up, shatter those ceilings, and remind you: you are not alone.
If you’re done dimming your sparkle and ready to claim your power, your purpose, and your pleasure—this is your space.
✨ Come for the real talk. Stay for the mindful revolution.

About Holly:
After graduating from Chico State with a BA in communications, she worked as a graphic designer for six years. But new adventures were calling and she was blessed with the opportunity to teach conversational English to college students in Tibet. It was there, one day in her tiny apartment, where she gathered up what I had on hand: scrap paper, Mod Podge and acrylic paint. She was trying to make it through an emotionally-challenging season and what emerged on canvas from that struggle was beautiful and satisfying. So began her love for mixed media painting.
Now, in the midst of yet another great adventure, being a mother to two young boys, she continues my love for mixed media painting and cherish time in the art studio. She mainly works with acrylics and handmade or scrap paper on wood panel. Texture, layering, unexpected color combinations and capturing the people/places around her are all reoccurring curiosities.
Some things she'll never stop believing: “Life has meaning, each person is significant, and The One who made all things is beautiful beyond comprehension.”

✨ Before You Go…
If this episode spoke to you—even in a small way—would you take 10 seconds to share it?
With just one woman. One friend. One person who might need to feel a little less alone in her struggle.
Tell her what resonated for you. Ask what landed for her.
Because when we share what moves us, we create deeper connection—with others and with ourselves.
