Challenging My Belief That Being Feminine is Weak


Listen Later

I've judged the feminine hard. For a long time I've viewed being "feminine" as being weak and offering no value to the world. This judgement stemmed from how I viewed my mum.

She stopped nursing when my brother and I were born, to be there for us whilst my Dad worked. In my little head, I made up the belief that women have nothing much to give, whilst men go out there and get shit done.

As a result, I hyper-idealised the masculine, putting all my eggs in doing, pushing, proving and working hard. Giving myself a break, time, the luxury of space to be, wander, feel and do as I please has been hard for me. My egoic beliefs flare up when I want to rest and my thoughts hammer me, saying. "you're lazy, you're a loser, you're a nobody".

Over the last two years a new way forward has been calling me, and I've been listening. The resistance to balancing out the masculine and feminine in me has been real, but, worth it. Have a listen to today's episode and lemme know your insights and takeaways.
