74: Feminine Leadership: What Does it Look Like to Lead As A Woman?

Most women operate at half power, trying to assimilate into ways of working that don't support how we naturally operate and create, undervaluing ourselves and our work, and taking more responsibility than is ours to take on. We care about the world. We want to make things better. But the way we've learned to lead and work is based on models that do not support nor tap into our 'feminine' power and wisdom. 

But what the heck is the 'feminine' and why do we need it? Can't we just all try to be better people, grow our careers, and talk about leadership without needing to gender modify it? The answer is NO.

If we desire to create a world in which there is pay equity, gender equity, connection instead of isolation, where we grow ourselves, our families and our work/business in ways that sustain and nourish us vs like some crazy Monsanto accelerated growth model, we have to LEARN what the feminine is... REVEAL the full range of our power... and then VALUE and APPLY a different way to work, live and lead.

There's much to say about Feminine Leadership and we are not going to cover it all today - I don't want to add to your overwhelm love! I want to give you the path out of it, which feminine leadership and wisdom offer us.

After studying tradition leadership for over two decades and realizing it didn't have what I needed as a woman or as a human who didn't want to perpetuate a domination and consumption model for business and living, I sought out 'the feminine' (even though I had no idea what that was at the time. Over the last decade I've applied this Wisdom to my own life and work and shared it with many more. 

Today, is the start of on ongoing conversation here at Feminine Power Time, the first of our deep dives into Feminine Leadership, a way of living, working and creating I've devoted my life to teaching and living. 

For today's session "Feminine Leadership: What Does it Look Like to Lead As a Woman?" we will dive into 5 foundational realms of Feminine Leadership, so we can open up to some deeper wisdom, new insights and expanded possibilities that and support us in being the change we wish to see, including:

• The Power Spectrums of feminine power and masculine power - what are these and why do we need them to access our full power and wisdom?
  
  
• Why the way we think about masculine power and the patriarchal power disempowers us 
  
  
• Why Mama Nature is the go-to expert on getting out of overwhelm - and how we've been conditioned to ignore her and how we've been distanced from what humans once knew intuitively to sustain life but is not called woo woo
   
• How we each contribute to the pay inequity and the disrespect we see women receiving from men and vice versa - it's not easy to embrace this but we will never have pay equity or equal rights or women and girls being valued and respected if we don't look at how we ourselves don't value the feminine, within ourselves and in how we work and lead 
• Why feminine leadership has to be part of the path to elevating human leadership, and creating a new model for what leadership in business, politics, education, government, families, healthcare looks like

When we lead naturally as a whole woman we embody both our masculine and feminine powers in ways that naturally lead us to creating realities that create more harmony, sustainability and prosperity. 

We will end this Feminine Power Time with a short meditation that leads you to connect with HOW big a difference you are making -so you can stop pressuring yourself and start acknowledging yourself. And will help you take the pressure of taking on more responsibility than is yours... feminine leadership leads us to just do our part.
