In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Avik Chakraborty sits down with Ruth van Vierzen—sales strategist, consultant, and seeker of inner clarity—to explore what it really means to be empowered in a world driven by external validation. From breaking through male-dominated industries to coaching through emotional trauma without bypassing pain, Ruth shares real-world insights on how to build inner strength, self-reliance, and authentic confidence. If you've ever felt unseen despite your accomplishments, this conversation will ground you in what truly matters.
About the Guest:
Ruth van Vierzen is a seasoned sales and consulting expert with over 25 years in the B2B and industrial sectors. Known for her ability to navigate traditionally male-dominated spaces with grit and grace, Ruth blends professional acumen with a lifelong passion for balance, mindfulness, and personal growth. She’s also an advocate for turning inward, cultivating resilience, and redefining power from the inside out.
Key Takeaways:
True empowerment is built through self-trust and internal validation, not external applause.
Resilience in personal life is often emotional; in professional life, it’s strategic—and both are necessary.
Empowerment doesn’t ignore trauma; it acknowledges pain while choosing not to be defined by it.
Social connection and genuine inquiry can uncover hidden struggles and create healing moments.
Growth comes from quiet reflection, boundary-setting, and learning from life’s hardest moments.
