Reclaiming Feminine Power... Beyond Boss Babes & Trad Wives
The Hidden Costs of Hustle Culture on Women
There's an epidemic of women feeling disconnected from their bodies and their feminine essence.
How this shows up for many of us is ...
✔️bone-tired exhaustion,
✔️a sense of being "dry" and used up instead of full and overflowing,
✔️bitterness & resentment.
Most of us grew up with messages of female empowerment that told us ...
You can have and do it all!
Boss babes have more fun!
Make the money, honey, and get yours...
Be on top of the world and in charge of everything around you.
Don't let anyone push you around.
🌀The subtle energy beneath that paradigm is ...
stay "high vibe" and "on" all the time...
do it like the boys (and better than the boys)...
ignore your cyclical nature and push through...
it's safer to hustle than to relax and receive...
feelings are inconvenient, they must be regulated...
pleasure isn't productive, it's a reward for AFTER the hard work is done (hint- the hard work is never done 😬)...
the body is a problem to overcome...
It's amazing that so many women are waking up to just how unhealthy this way of being is.
lies We've Been sold About Empowerment
The masculine-coded version of power has dominated our culture for decades, often masquerading as gender-neutral empowerment.
Our archetypes of power are STILL largely male…
The CEO.
The Superhero.
Father-God.
But here's the truth: empowerment that asks you to disconnect from your body, your feelings, and your somatic rhythms is not empowerment.
It's a deep-rooted, unconscious repression of the feminine principle that serves NO ONE.
Women who try to mimic this kind of one dimensional masculine power usually find themselves feeling hollow and burned out.
(Even men need to reclaim a broader range of power archetypes… Dionysus, the Magician, the nature gods.)
To feel fully alive, we must reconnect with our creative, sensual, juicy, non-linear, cyclical, feeling nature.
The answer isn’t just softening
Women KNOW something isn’t working.
But what I see happening in response is an extreme swing in the other direction: a narrowing of the idea that feminine power only comes from softening, flowing, being led, receiving.
This is only half of what feminine power truly is!
Real feminine power is dynamic. It's being a channel for LIFE FORCE ENERGY in all its manifestations - light to dark, go-ing and flow-ing.
It channels life force energy in all its forms—from stillness to storm, from receptivity to wild creation.
We can lead and feel. We can create and receive. We can rest and rise.
Reclaiming the Full Spectrum of Feminine Power
Let’s stop confining ourselves to new boxes - which are just new ways of controlling and repressing real feminine power - even if they’re silk-lined and scented with rose oil.
Real feminine power is full-spectrum.
It’s fierce and soft.
Linear and cyclical.
Fiery and fluid.
The next wave of feminism is about reclamation.
Reclaiming our feminine aspects as sources of power in their own right. And evolving our idea of feminine power back into FULLNESS.
Reclaiming your body as sacred, not shameful;
Reclaiming pleasure as productive;
Reclaiming your sensitivity and cyclical wisdom as assets, not problems.
This isn’t just personal. It’s cultural. It’s systemic. And it’s deeply needed.
Re-orienting to alternate roles of power and success asks something of us as a collective.
⚡️It's calling us to evolve ALL of the roles that women see for themselves, and profit from the real breadth of wisdom and intelligence the feminine brings.⚡️
What if we stop telling women they should "be" instead of "do", effectively cutting them off at the knees?
What if we instead encourage women to bring the full force of the feminine current into our collective as leaders and change makers?
