The Feminine Economy & Embodied Leadership


Listen Later

Episode Description: In this deeply resonant episode, we explore the intersection of gender, capitalism, and values-based leadership. Through candid stories and critical reflections, our guest unpacks the difference between sex and gender, discusses feminism as a liberatory movement for all, and offers real talk about what it means to build a business aligned with the feminine economy. We ground this conversation in Jennifer Armbrust’s “Proposals for the Feminine Economy,” and reflect on how embracing embodiment, intuition, and equity can reshape our lives, our work, and our world.

🔑 Key Takeaways

  • Sex ≠ Gender: Gender is socially constructed, not biologically fixed.
  • Feminism is for everyone: It's about ending exploitation, not opposing men.
  • The care economy is undervalued: If paid, domestic labor would earn $60,000 USD/year.
  • You can’t bulldoze into alignment: Feminine leadership listens, flows, and surrenders.
  • Feminine businesses aren’t built in patriarchy’s image. They evolve slowly, cyclically, and with care.
  • Values > Speed: Business success doesn’t require burnout or hierarchy.
  • Embodiment is intelligence: Your body can guide aligned decision-making.
