When Women Own Our Power

11/9/2015

 
If women fully own our power one day, we won't recognize the world we live in the next day. And so, to offer my gifts to more women around the world, I have decided to venture into delivering my services online! Took me awhile, heh heh. 

What happens when women own our power? Quite frankly, the power within us is unstoppable. When we own our power we:
   - move more freely and uncensored, in our day to day lives
   - amp up the potency of our intimate partnerships
   - more easily let go of relationships that don't bring out the best in us
   - draw in new friendships that are deeply energizing
   - have a potent, magnetic impact in business and social endeavors
   - feel deeper bliss in our hips and bones

   - adapt to change more easily
   - become stronger and more gracious role models for our children
   - invite masculine power to become more balanced and mature
   - create a world with less war and more love (hands down, no doubt, 100%)

Only when we ourselves honor and own our power -- which can be distilled all the way down to Love itself -- will the world “outside” of us mirror back its reverence for woman.

As women...
​
​We have the power to bring new life into being. Stop for a moment, right there. 

We have the power to choose who our partners are, which jobs we want and which jobs we don’t. We have the power to embody grace in the face of chaos, the power to support our families in highly skillful ways that society doesn’t recognize and honor, the power to be present to complex systems dynamics as we lead projects with enormous compassion and inclusivity, a high level of attention to detail, and even mastery.

We have the power to wear make-up, high heels, men's shoes or women's shoes, pants or dresses, or whatever we feel like wearing. We have the power to feed babies from our own bodies (this one is a superpower).  

Whether or not we can have babies, whether or not we can debate about political or historical subjects with a table of men, whether or not we can mesmerize an audience with our voice or guitar, whether or not we can impress people with our frisbee skills, ALL women are ALL powerful when we choose to own it, stand in it, honor it.

It is a CHOICE. 

There is no end point in owning our power. No finish line. Every day we choose 1,000 times whether we honor the power within us, or give it away out of a sense of lack of self worth or other fear. Practice, practice, practice. Every moment, every single day. The answers and the power are within.

P.S. Thanks to our collaborators, partners and friends for being part this very exciting moment of Leaning into Light as we venture online with our workshops! Loving more widely is a big part of our big vision!
