There was a time when men and women worked in sacred partnership. That balance was shattered when systems told men they were meant to lead, and women were meant to serve. This shift didn’t just hurt women, it robbed men of purpose, direction, and their divine role.

In this episode, we trace how women’s bodies went from sacred to controlled. Once seen as life bringers and spiritual guides, women were slowly stripped of power through systems that feared their influence. This is about the moment balance broke, and what it’s cost us.

In this episode, we go deeper into the ancient feminine power they tried to erase. Before patriarchy, goddesses like Inanna, Hathor, and Oshun represented sensuality, wisdom, and divine leadership. Their stories were buried — but the power remains. This isn’t new. It’s remembrance.

This episode kicks off the Holy, Not Whore series — a powerful look at how the feminine was once sacred, not shamed. We explore how women’s sensuality was honored, how sex was spiritual, and how systems flipped the narrative. If you're ready to heal your relationship with your body and power, start here.

In Part Two of Affirmations for Black Women, I’m pouring into your spirit — reminding you that you are the dream, the healer, the masterpiece. These words are your armor and your soft landing. Play this when you need to remember: your power is not up for debate.

Use this meditation anytime you feel disconnected, overwhelmed, or unsure. It’s a practice of coming home to your body, quieting the outside noise, and remembering the truth of who you are.

I've noticed that many people struggle to let beautiful souls exist as they are without feeling the need to control or reshape them. When they realize they cannot dominate or mold someone to their liking, they often turn to destruction instead.

In a world that often glorifies hustle over harmony, it’s easy to forget one of the deepest truths about ourselves: Divine Feminine Energy isn’t just handed to us—it’s a privilege, a gift.

At the end of the day, remember that your path is yours alone. The ones trying to drag you down are just distractions—don’t let them steer you off course. Keep rising, keep glowing, and keep repeating this process every single day. It’s not always easy, but it’s always worth it. Let your shine be the loudest response to anyone who tries to dim your light. And trust, there’s nothing louder than a soul on fire.
