Her life is a grand case study for how we command respect, take charge of our destiny, and live with soul!

Three Lessons in Life, Love & Sacred Femininity From Oshun

By

Oshun is the Yoruban goddess of the rivers and fresh waters, sensuality, fertility, beauty, art, wealth and love. Brought to the America’s via the Transatlantic slave trade, today, she is revered in Santeria, Candomble, and Afro-Haitian religious tradition as well.

She is such a strong force in the collective unconscious that she turns up, sometimes  unintentionally, in contemporary popular culture. From the universal image of a beautiful woman emerging from water (as in 007) to Pam Grier’s ‘Foxxy Brown’ and Beyonce’s’Lemonade’, the powerful orisha still makes her scintillating presence known. 

Even today, the ancient mythic stories that surround Oshun offer inspiring insight into soft power, transformation and the sacred feminine.  For women, myths offer a significant pathway to understanding feminine power as these ancient deities predate patriarchy and our contemporary concept of feminity. 

In this video, I explore the deeper meaning of several Oshun patakis and offer insight into soft power, radical transformation, and the purpose of pleasure.

Cardi B. and the Art of the Come-Up

By


The meteoric rise of current belle du jour, Cardi B., is being cast as a modern day fairytale. But is her astonishing come-up from dancer/Instagram fame to the A-list the work of a fairy godmother, or a woman on a mission? That’s the thing about women, people are always underestimating us, and that almost always works to our advantage. History is filled with women like Cardi B., women who suddenly rose from obscurity into the stratosphere– women like Cora Pearl, Josephine Baker, and even Dita Von Teese. The truth is every woman has the  power to live the life of her dreams, but before we step foot on the world’s stage, we first have to recognize this power within ourselves. In this video I explore these fascinating come-up stories and  identify exactly what it takes to engineer your own destiny.

 

On Respectability Politics: Why Fierce Women Misbehave

By

Pop icon Janet Jackson found herself on the scorching end of a media firestorm following news that she was divorcing her billionaire husband, Wissam Al Manna, a mere 5 years after marriage and 3 months after giving birth.

The questions and name-calling ensued.  Is she a gold digger? Was she in it for the baby all along?

We’ll never know, and frankly, it doesn’t matter.  Women like Janet don’t ask permission, or seek  validation in the eyes of society– and yet they make history.

From Cleopatra to Eartha Kitt, when we study the history of the most phenomenal women to walk the Earth, you discover that they all defy rules of respectability. They flout convention, rise to power, start movements and wars, enrapture men, and above all, they never–ever–hesitate to put themselves first.

Powerful women don’t follow rules, they follow their heart.

There is an unwritten code of ethics to which women are expected adhere– cultural expectations of how we behave, how we love, mother, and connect to the opposite sex. These  ‘respectability politics’ signify the way we police each other, and the way men police us.  These notions of female chastity, purity, beauty and goodness weren’t created to empower us. They were made to check our ambition and control our sexuality.

Maybe respectable women don’t marry for money. Maybe they don’t divorce their husbands  three months after giving birth. They don’t put their desires first. But guess what? Powerful women (sometimes) do.

Our notion of feminity as being soft, accommodating, considerate and ‘nice’ holds us back.It prevents us from initiating the bold moves necessary to create a life of meaning.  As you’ll see in this video, the women who make history– the politicians, the activists, the sirens, and the stars– all behaved ‘badly’ at one point or another. Like Maxine Waters, they raised hell. Like Josephine Baker, they danced provocatively. Like Coco Chanel,  they took on lovers. Like Martha Stewart, they built empires, and made enemies.

It’s  important for any human being to have a firm moral compass, but any woman who aspires to acquire power or resources, or the very least, to  a life of her choosing, can not be afraid to be misbehave. ‘Nice’ women finish last.

Your Vagina Has the Power to Heal!

By

When we hear the term ‘vagina power’ or ‘pussy power’, we often think of a woman’s sexual prowess, or even her willingness to use sex as a bargaining chip. Too often, our sexual power is based on the belief that a woman’s chief role in sex is to provide a soft, pleasurable haven for a man– a space for temporary rest and ecstasy.
But what if I told you that your vagina is so much more than a Holiday Inn? What if I told you it was a temple, and a veritable pathway to physical, emotional and spiritual transcendence? What if I told you that women possess a powerful, healing energy that men can ONLY access through them? What if I told you women don’t just receive in sex– we actually give men something they crave on the deepest level.
 
In order to comprehend this, first you’d have to completely redefine sex, and extract it from its modern interpretation.
 
In the ancient world, sex was considered an act of sacred communion, a merging of two cosmic energies, and a means of creation and transcendence. Today, sex as a physical act performed for the sake of reproduction and pleasure.
 
In fact, the very word we use, ‘sex’, is derived from the latin ‘secare’ which literally means to divide– the opposite of communion. The word sexuality enters the english language in 1389, just as western views are totally shifting away from the sacred toward the profane.
 
Our perception is distorted. What we see on television and in pornography is a product of the male imagination. It comes from a hyper-masculine  place where a woman lacks sexual agency, and her vagina is  little more than a receptacle. Most significantly, sex, in its modern iteration, is totally divorced from its spiritual nature, and this rendering blinds women to the real source of their ‘vagina power’.
 
So what is her power? It lies in her mysterious, creative, revitalizing energy that when cultivated has the power to heal, transform, create and ultimately transcend. It is an energy that we don’t even have a word for in our language– though in eastern philosophy it is referenced as Shakti, kundalini, or even yen.
Even renown psychologist Carl Jung wrote in his spiritual autobiography that women have access to a divine energy, that men can only connect to through them!
 
In this video, I share how all women have potential to access this energy and to fundamentally change a man through sex. I talk about how this ‘whip appeal’ is healing to men, but how our modern society not only keeps women in the dark about this power, butreinforces beliefs and practices that actually DEPRIVE us of this power.

Have you experienced your power to heal?

“Hurt Bae”: When A Man Leaves You Emotionally Bankrupt

By

[divider]

There’s a new viral video, affectionately titled “Hurt Bae” that offers stunning insight into the dynamics of many contemporary broken relationships– the type of emotionally lopsided relationships that most of us will encounter at least once (perhaps repeatedly) in our dating lives. Created by “The Scene”, the short features two ex-lovers facing in their first intimate exchange following a tense break-up.

Even in the relationship’s after-life, it is evident that the power dynamics are still uncomfortably skewed in his favor. We see a woman who is visibly broken and looking for an emotional  reciprocity that simply isn’t there (and maybe never was).

I see a woman who has given way more emotional energy than she’s received. I see a woman who is empty–emotionally overdrawn.

It makes you wonder– how many of us enter new relationships in emotional debt, hoping to find someone willing to make a deposit? And perhaps, the first deposit in our emotional bank account has to be the investment we make in ourselves.

In this video I discuss creating intimacy in a way that doesn’t leave you broken and bereft. Watch the original video here.

Powerfully yours,
