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.

Navigating Emotional Storms with Diandra Ford-Wing, author/storyteller
*Trigger Warning* #suicide
She had a key, but it was almost too late. Letters written, music on, pills taken… then, a friend’s voice cuts through. "Leave me alone, let me die," but she didn't. Sometimes, rescue comes when we least expect it. #MentalHealthMatters #MentalHealth #SuicidePrevention #YouAreNotAlone #Hope #Friendship

This week on the Mindful Miri Podcast - Diandra Ford-Wing, in her words:
"Driven by a deep passion for the art of storytelling, I thrive on creating narratives that both entertain and provoke thought. My debut novel, Red Bird, is more than just a story—it is a heartfelt love letter to my mother and Aunt Audrey, a tribute to their strength, wisdom, and the impact they’ve had on my life. Through this novel, I hope to offer solace to those navigating the challenging waters of loss and grief, providing a safe haven amidst their emotional storms.
At my core, I am dedicated to writing stories that explore the complexities of the human spirit. With every word, I strive to capture the essence of what it means to be human, from our deepest joys to our most painful struggles. As I continue on my journey as a writer, I invite you to join me in discovering powerful narratives that not only entertain but also leave a lasting imprint on the world—both in literature and in life."

✨ 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.
