Women's Empowerment: Turn Obstacles into Opportunities & Purpose!

Published on: 30th May, 2025

Today, we’re diving into a powerful topic: “Where There’s Purpose, There is Opposition," and spiritual discernment is necessary to move forward.

In this episode, you will learn three critical insights:

  1. Understand how challenges are often markers of purpose, and why it’s essential to view these obstacles through a lens of growth.
  2. Discover how tuning into your intuition can guide your decisions, helping you navigate opposition with clarity and purpose.
  3. Explore practical ways to stay grounded in your daily life, ensuring you're spiritually anchored, especially in challenging times.

As we venture into our dreams and passions, we often encounter opposition. This can manifest as self-doubt, criticism from others, or unexpected life challenges. But here’s the twist: these obstacles are not signs of failure—they're often indicators that you are on the right path. 

It’s crucial to understand that with every duality of purpose and opposition comes growth. Embrace your challenges as part of your sacred journey. Trust in your ability to discern, and let grounding practices like prayer keep you anchored. 

Just like the remarkable women we've celebrated, trust that your struggles can lead to profound growth and purpose. Stand firm in your truth, and let the spirit of defiance guide you through the storms of opposition. 

Know that you are not alone on this journey. Together, we can inspire change and uplift one another, forging a path rooted in resilience and grace. 

Thank you for joining me today; may you walk forward confidently and purposefully, lighting the way also for others. 

Gratitude & Blessings! ♥️

Dr. Mensimah Shabazz

I am Dr. Mensimah Shabazz. It has also been twenty-nine years since my first major illness – a debilitating back injury that sparked me into a new reality and awakening. In order to heal, I had to go back and fetch the story–the pain and also inner gifts I had spent my whole life forgetting. My life is back in balance, spiritually, mentally, emotionally, and physically.

My new line of “work” as a transformational coach and my studies in transpersonal psychology and women’s spirituality were manifested instinctively. I wish to share these spiritual tools, knowledge and blessings with all women who are on their soulful journeys to finding peace, living fulfilling, authentic lives.
