In this week’s episode of the Melanin Muses Podcast, we dive deep and discuss: breaking the mold on Asian Stereotypes, Powerlifting & Strength Training as a woman, and Creating your Dream Life Over 40 with our Guest Muse: Laarni Mulvey!
Laarni is the Founder of the “Strong and Mighty Company” and of the “Standing in Strength Global Movement”. She is known to many as “The Power Lady” not only due to her signature “power bun” and the strength sports she partakes in, BUT it’s also because of her belief that “Strength is Universal” and she’s able to find strength in all aspects of life.
Utilizing her arsenal of gifts, Laarni encourages and leads women to honor their power through her message of Strength. Her primary belief is that when you believe in your own strength, you can positively impact others around you, overcome feelings of being held back, and outgrow the standards that are imposed on you.
