Leadership empowered by Lifestyle with Dr. Shagufta Ferooz | Kirdaar Se Qayadat # 3 | Riphah FM

Описание: Dr. Shagufta Feroz, Director of the Riphah Institute of Lifestyle Medicine and Founder of the Pakistan Association of Lifestyle Medicine, shares a deeply insightful and compassionate perspective on women’s health and empowerment through lifestyle medicine. She explains how a woman’s physical, emotional, and mental well-being is rooted in everyday choices — from nutrition and sleep to stress management, social connections, and self-care — emphasizing that true empowerment begins with internal balance rather than outward appearances.

In this episode hosted by Irfan Bhatti, the discussion explores how emotional stability plays a defining role in a woman’s life and family system. Dr. Shagufta highlights that the majority of human functioning is driven by emotional intelligence, making women’s mental well-being crucial for nurturing healthy children and preventing long-term emotional and behavioral challenges. The conversation also addresses the unique pressures faced by Pakistani women, including emotional stress, family dynamics, and the struggle to balance professional responsibilities with motherhood — especially during a child’s formative years.

The episode further sheds light on practical, achievable health practices, including mindful nutrition, short daily physical activity, and redefining self-care as internal nourishment rather than cosmetic appearance. Dr. Feroz also introduces Riphah International University’s pioneering initiatives in lifestyle medicine, which aim to promote preventive health through education, community engagement, and future-focused medical training.

Watch, reflect, and rethink health — because empowered women are built through emotional strength, informed choices, and a balanced lifestyle.
