Most women think of self-defense as what happens once someone grabs you. But the truth? The most powerful skills happen before it ever gets physical. In this episode, I’m joined by Alison, a former FBI Analyst and founder of Strong is Beautiful, who teaches women how to build awareness, trust their instincts, and walk through the world with confidence- whether you’re running alone, loading groceries with kids in tow, or living by yourself. This conversation is about more than defense, it’s about reclaiming your power and feeling prepared in any situation. 

Probably one of the most important and impactful conversations I've had on this platform. Send this to all the women in your life, because it could just save theirs.

About Alison

Alison Bosworth is a former FBI analyst turned safety educator who believes every woman has the power to be her own protector. As the founder of Strong is Beautiful, she teaches practical safety skills that go far beyond self-defense, they're life skills that help women trust their instincts, set boundaries, and move through the world remembering they are meant to take up space and have their voice heard.

Currently completing her Master of Science in Ayurveda and Integrative Medicine, Alison understands that strengthening your intuition and inner wisdom isn't found in mystical practices, it's in loving and showing up for yourself through daily behaviors that honor your body and mind. This holistic approach weaves through all her work, from teaching situational awareness to destigmatizing PTSD through her volunteer work with Bodhi Battalion.

Drawing from her background in federal threat assessment, martial arts instruction, and integrative wellness, Alison shows women that confidence is their safety superpower. She learned early that confidence is knowing you are capable, and she's on a mission to help women, teens, and tweens discover that truth by honoring both their fierce strength and their compassionate nature.
