In this episode, Raquel and Jennifer speak with Monica Rodgers,  a tireless advocate for the full actualization of women, about her message of female empowerment via unraveling from years of social conditioning.  

Through The Revelation Project Podcast and group coaching programs, Monica guides women through their inner evolution from trance to transcendence, revealing the toxic myths of social conditioning and self-doubt in order to illuminate the magic and magnificence of our imperfect selves.  

She believes that women can take action toward realizing their true potential only when we stop proving and striving to be who everyone wants us to be. When we reveal the truth of who we are, we return to our “original design”, and with the practice of self-love and compassion, we become aligned, opening the portal into our divine purpose where true prosperity dwells. There has never been a more important time for women to reveal the truth of who we are as a catalyst for positive change in the world as the Divine Feminine returns in the Sophia Century. 

Monica Rodgers is The Founder of The Revelation Project and The Revelation Project Podcast. She is a Mother, Author, Feminist Scholar, Co-active coach, & Mature Feminine Rites of Passage Practitioner.

In this episode Raquel and Jennifer speak with Silvia Dutchevici, a psychotherapist, mental health expert, author, and founder & president of the Critical Therapy Institute. Silvia created critical therapy on perceiving a need for the theory and practice of psychology to reflect how race, class, gender, and religion intersect with psychological conflicts. This is a really important discussion about intersectionality as an integral part of who we are; as such, it should be factored into our relationships to our therapists as well as to the field of therapy as a whole. It's often said that the personal is political; that said, psychology and therapy are never apolitical.

Raquel and Jennifer dive deep in this week's episode. This one definitely feels therapeutic as they talk about what's on their minds at the moment. Among so many things, they discuss limiting beliefs, learning (or not learning) life's lessons, death, and addiction. Sometimes you just need to talk it out - that's exactly what Raquel and Jennifer do in this episode.
