Already a year ago, when I originally broadcast this episode, I warned about the danger of living only in our Feminine Energy. Over the past year, the tendency to focus on Feminine Energy while suppressing or not healing the Masculine Energy has only increased. We need both energies, and when we lean into only one, imbalance arises. In this episode, I talk about what happens when we lean too much into the feminine. Procrastination, scattered energy, and inconsistent presence in your business all stem from a shared root, and it has to do with your Feminine Energy. Originally broadcast in March 2025, this episode offered a fresh perspective on why you might be struggling with discipline and consistency in your business. Today, its message feels even more relevant and needed. ______________________ What is the best way I can support you right now?
