Hey Ambitchious Tribe!

In this week’s episode of the Ambitchious Podcast, I delve headfirst into a topic that many Ambitchious women struggle with: overdeveloped masculine energy—what it looks like, why it occurs, and how we can begin to heal.

Sound familiar?

Overly assertive, even when it comes off as aggressive

Perfectionist and control freak tendencies

Difficulty expressing vulnerability or emotion

Independence to a fault (“I don’t need anyone!”)

Workaholism and tying self-worth to productivity

Trouble with emotional intimacy, even in close relationships…

If you were nodding along, you’re not alone—and trust me, I get it and have been there too! Most of us develop these traits as responses to trauma and old programming, whether from childhood, family history, or the expectations of “hustle culture.” You don’t have to live in that mode forever.

What’s inside this transformative episode?

How to recognize the red flags of toxic masculine energy

My personal journey of stepping back from constant hustle

Why ancestral lineage and societal pressures play such a big part

Practical, heartfelt ways to heal: inner child work, rituals, creative outlets, nature, and…reclaiming the power of vulnerability

Tips on how to invite your partner into your healing process (yes, you can ask for what you desire)

Key Takeaways to Start Healing Today:

Self-awareness is step one. Get real about these patterns.

Practice self-compassion. These traits were protective, but you’re allowed to outgrow them.

Lean into your femininity. Creativity, connection, care, and stillness are your medicine.

Create clear boundaries and surround yourself with supportive, growth-minded women.

Communicate with your partner. Let them know how to genuinely support you as you rebalance.

My Challenge for You:

Ready for even deeper support?

Remember: You are worthy, just as you are—no matter how much you achieve. 💗
