If you’re ready to release the weight of hustle culture and realign with your true energy, start with my free guided visualization. It’ll help you reset, reclaim your peace, and step into a life that actually fuels you.

You'll get grounded tools, planetary insights, and a new way to think about power.

The patriarchy has shaped everything—including spirituality—and we’re not here for it. In this episode, we’re breaking down how patriarchal conditioning has distorted our connection to the divine, stripped power from feminine energy, and reinforced limiting beliefs about worth, intuition, and spiritual sovereignty.

But we’re not just calling it out. We’re also healing from it. We’ll explore how to deconstruct patriarchal beliefs, reclaim your power, and find balance between feminine and masculine energies without falling into the same cycles of control.

We’ll cover:

* How the patriarchy hijacked spirituality and erased feminine wisdom

* The impact of patriarchal conditioning on self-worth and intuition

* The power of divine duality—why we need both feminine and masculine energies

* Practical steps to heal from patriarchal wounds and reclaim your sovereignty

If you’re ready to flip the bird to outdated systems while also doing the deep inner work to heal, this episode is for you. Let’s dismantle and rebuild—on our terms.
