52: Tired of Being Strong? This Is for You
In this fiercely tender episode, Quinn explores sisu—a powerful Finnish word that describes the inner grit that rises when there’s nothing left to give but you keep showing up anyway. Drawing from their own ancestral roots, Quinn reclaims the kind of strength that isn’t about pushing harder, but about remembering who you are when the world goes quiet.
This is not about hustle. This is about sacred perseverance.
This is not girlboss strength. This is sisu.
Through stories, reflection, and a closing guided meditation, Quinn offers practical and soulful ways to reconnect with your own unshakable strength after divorce—especially when you're tired of being the strong one.
In this episode, you’ll hear:
- Why “I’m tired of being strong” is not a weakness—it’s a threshold
- The history and soul of sisu, a Finnish concept of embodied resilience
- How to make meaning from pain (Viktor Frankl-style)
- The power of ancestry and generational strength
- Main character energy vs. passive survival
- A somatic practice to locate your sisu in your body
- How rest can be revolutionary—and part of your strength
- A beautiful grounding meditation to close
Quotable Moments:
“Sisu is the decision to keep showing the fuck up—even when no one’s clapping.”
“You don’t have to earn rest. You are already enough.”
“Sisu begins where perseverance ends.”
