Removing the Splinter: The Inner Work That Changes Everything

I often talk about the importance of inner work here, and there’s a reason for that. When you feel good on the inside, it radiates outward in ways that no botox, filter, makeup, or trendy outfit ever could. True self esteem, confidence, and contentment can’t be faked, they’re felt. When someone struggles with their sense of self, it’s often visible, especially in their eyes. No amount of external enhancements can hide the inner turmoil. That’s why doing the inner work is so transformative.

Passion of the Wild Red Mother: Embracing the Joyful, Defiant Path

Life often tries to tame us, especially as women. Society imposes expectations and whispers rules about how we should live, love, and express ourselves. The Passion of the Wild Red Mother invites us to break free from those constraints. Not with bitterness, but with loving defiance. This is about reclaiming our right to live authentically, embracing the messy beauty of life with open arms.

Joyful defiance is not rebellion for rebellion’s sake; it’s a choice to live in alignment with our true selves, even when the world pressures us to conform. It’s about saying, “I refuse to dim my light, even when it makes others uncomfortable.”

Simplifying Your Skincare Routine for a Greener Future

While some plastics from beauty products are recyclable, the sad reality is that a significant percentage still ends up in landfills or incinerators. According to the EPA, only about 9% of all plastics ever produced have been recycled. Beauty packaging is often among the least recycled due to its small size, mixed materials, and contamination.

Protecting Your Energy: Recognizing Draining Dynamics and Nurturing Balanced Connections

Many of us are naturally giving and thoughtful people. We offer our time, our hearts, and our attention freely. We care deeply, even about those we’ve just met. We listen to others’ pain, hold space for their emotions, and try to be the person who isn’t judging but supporting. But when the roles are reversed, when we find ourselves in need of that same care and attention, sometimes we realize that those we’ve given so much to are nowhere to be found.

These are energy leeches. People who take and take without reciprocating. It’s one of the painful truths of being human. We pour ourselves into others, and instead of feeling a mutual exchange of love and care, we end up drained. It can feel like a vampire has sucked the energy right out of us, leaving us hollow and longing for an explanation. Why do they take without giving anything back? What makes them incapable of showing up for us the way we’ve shown up for them?

Reclaiming the Wonder: Slowing Down the Rush to Grow Up

There’s an unspoken race to grow up that starts earlier than it should. Young girls often feel the pull to act older, to rush into being teenagers, then adults, and finally hitting that magic milestone of 21. Today, social media influencers amplify this rush, introducing the pressure for girls as young as seven to wear makeup, have artificial nails, and even use anti aging products. This isn’t empowerment. It’s a cleverly disguised marketing strategy.

Judgment as a Mirror: Lessons from the Vulture

Take the vulture, for example. Many of us instinctively recoil at the sight of a vulture. They’re often seen as symbols of death, darkness, and decay. I’ve felt this myself, an unease, a quiet fear, a judgment that these creatures were somehow “ugly” or something to avoid. But when I paused to reflect, I saw something profound. The vulture doesn’t represent death; it represents renewal. It consumes decay, aiding in the cycle of life by preventing disease and returning nutrients to the earth.

Discovering the Space Between Awareness and the Unknown

There’s a fascinating place where the lines blur. A space between the known and the unknown, the conscious and the subconscious, the physical and the spiritual. It’s not a place we can map or define in rigid terms, yet it’s one of the most profound areas of human experience. This liminal space is where transformation begins, where insights emerge, and where we connect with a reality beyond what we can see or touch.

Untamed Potential: the Wild Within

As women, our lives often feel defined by boundaries we didn’t draw. From the moment we step into the world, external forces attempt to tame us. Society debates our rights as if our autonomy is up for negotiation. Our emotions, especially during the sacred rhythm of our menstrual cycles, are dismissed as irrational, used as an excuse to diminish our voices. We are told to shrink when we should rise, to conform when we should explore. But within every woman lies an untamed potential, a fierce, wild, limitless power waiting to be reclaimed.

Stop Filtering Me Without My Permission

Let’s talk about a modern day violation that doesn’t get enough attention: getting filtered without your consent. You know the situation. Your friend or family member snaps a photo of you, uploads it to social media, and slaps on a filter that smooths out every wrinkle, changes your skin tone, and erases every ounce of your natural glow. And then it’s out there, for the world to see, as if that filtered version of you is the real you.

Let’s get something straight: I didn’t ask to be a porcelain doll.

Aging and Ageism: Reclaiming the Power of Every Life Stage

Powerful women have historically challenged the status quo. As women age, they gain not just wisdom but also a clearer sense of self. They are less likely to accept mediocrity, manipulation, or inequality. This clarity and confidence make aging women a force to be reckoned with. The societal push to silence and diminish older women can be seen as a fear based response to their growing power.
