“It's still rooted in this fear of the power of the woman. And I think that shows up in men as the repression of their own feminine energy, their receptivity, their ability, and to allow themselves to be vulnerable to be seen”.
“Much of my work was attached to my achievements and ‘look at what I've done - this, this, this.’ It wasn't until I started to soften and start to listen to my true desires, not what I thought I should have accomplished in order to be worthy, all of these things that I consider the feminine that I've been able. I'm still a work in progress on what that feels like to be in harmony”.
“This divine feminine rising is not a reaction to an old way. It's an embodiment of what is possible in a new way”.
“This divine feminine rising is also just a coming home, to that place in ourselves. Deep forgiveness, coming back home to the wisdom of the body, coming back home to the compassion itself, so that you can see others through the eyes of compassion, and understand that most people are reacting from some kind of trauma they've experienced as well”.
“It's usually your inner child and repressed energy that really needs to be nurtured. But it can't come from outside of you. And even if I were to destroy that man, my ego would feel great for a moment, right? But then I feel like shit, because once again, like what you do to others, you're really doing to yourself".
