Can embracing your feminine energy transform both your business and personal life? This episode promises insights into finding that perfect balance between masculine and feminine energies with our guest, Julie Santiago, a high-power CEO who transitioned from the high-stakes environment of Wall Street to empowering women to harness their intuitive and nurturing sides. We examine how society's emphasis on productivity and logic often marginalizes intuition, emotions, and cyclic living, and Julie shares her journey and wisdom on overcoming resistance to these undervalued principles. We also address the significant personal impacts of adopting masculine roles in relationships, such as increased anxiety and imbalance, and the importance of aligning with our natural systems to foster well-being.
We dive into the essential equilibrium of masculine and feminine energies for holistic health, particularly in parenting. Julie and I discuss how individuals may naturally align with one type of energy but benefit immensely from integrating both. This conversation is a call to slow down and create space for stillness and nurturance amidst societal pressures for constant activity. We offer actionable steps to embrace your feminine side, beginning with healing the body and mind to reduce anxiety and cultivate a more harmonious family environment.
