The Religious and Political roots of Feminism
One day into my intentional pause from social media, aside from Skool, and my soul is on fire. My sister had her first baby two weeks ago and my precious nephew lit something in me that I cannot unfeel. I was on the fence about having babies. He didn’t gently nudge me off. He fully shoved me. I am all in on being a momma when my husband finds me. This man is truly teaching me patients as I wait haha. At the same time, something deeper has been stirring. For a long time I have sensed there is a shadow behind modern feminism. An energy that feels disconnected from truth, from family, from the design of women. When you look at the reality that there are an estimated 73 million abortions worldwide each year, you have to be willing to ask harder questions about what we have been sold and what it has cost us. Something is not adding up in the way we have been conditioned to work, live, and measure our worth. So I am using this break to read. To think. To sharpen my discernment. I have a stack of books I am reading during this time including "Occult Feminism: The Secret History of Women’s Liberation" and "Make Him a Sandwich." I am not interested in surface level takes. I want to understand the roots of the religion and political agenda. This knowledge does not pull me away from my work. It fuels it. It strengthens my conviction to help women build businesses in alignment with who they actually are. Their biology. Their strengths. Their design. Their purpose. Not from pressure. Not from resentment. Not from imitation. If this resonates and you are open to going deeper, I am sharing the Joe Rogan and Rachel Wilson episode that sparked a lot of this reflection for me. https://open.spotify.com/episode/0m9FsmGniEHLvAV8CWqJ3X?si=75ad1728ef3b4240
