Superwoman Isn't Real With Kira Mahal
‘Superwoman Isn’t Real’ is your new go-to women's wellness podcast by Kira Mahal, founder of MotivatePT - London’s leading Personal Training Platform for Women. With two kids under 5, wellness is a non-negotiable. In her own journey trying to be Superwoman and spin all the plates, she's realised Superwoman isn’t real, and we're holding ourselves to an impossible standard. The good news is that all the guests on this podcast are very real. In these unfiltered conversations, Kira aims to leave you feeling that you can achieve everything you want with the tools her guests share, as long as we ditch the Superwoman persona and live authentically.
