This episode of THIS. with Shauna Griffiths, brings you the incredible Amira Alvarez, Founder and CEO of The Unstoppable Woman, whose work is focused on helping women have it all! Tune in to hear about what she is doing to contribute to the financial success of women, and how she inspires them to manifest their fullest and most fulfilling lives. Amira is a visionary leader, celebrated entrepreneur, and a passionate advocate for empowered living. After achieving a fivefold increase in her income in one year and building a multimillion-dollar company, she was led to contemplate the intricate balance between hyper-achievement and genuine fulfillment. Refusing to sacrifice her drive for success, Amira realized that pursuing larger goals 𝘢𝘭𝘰𝘯𝘦 left her unfulfilled. She, therefore, developed a methodology to craft an exquisite life that harmonizes ambition with profound contentment, enabling individuals to embrace their inner drive while finding space for deep and meaningful fulfillment. Her path has become a beacon for high-achieving women seeking to forge a life rich in truth, beauty, and intimacy–one in which you actualize your innermost dreams without diminishing any of your hard-won successes. She believes women have been told they can be anything they want to be, but simultaneously warned that they can't have it all.
