How to lead from the Feminine
This week’s show is with Phoenix Na Gig. Phoenix lives in the wild beauty of Cornwall, England. and works with women around the world. Remembering the nature of our womb consciousness, she is part of the ushering in of a new paradigm of awakening feminine nature on the planet.
She is fascinated by both the history and the contemporary embodiment and re-emergence of women’s wisdom as a journey to healing, balance, wellness and power. She is also an academic research student writing towards a thesis recording the awakening womb experiences of contemporary women in the eco-feminist movement and anthropologically she draws parallels with the suggestion of similar devotion and ancient sacred/religious experience in the womb caves of the Palaeolithic.
Her own journey began with a sense of magic and wonder and reverence for the natural world. As a young woman she was called to heal after ovarian surgery and look deeper into the uncovering and healing of childhood trauma and assault as an adult, that led her way back to the wisdom of her body and the body of the earth.
Phoenix was then diagnosed with Essential Tremor a degenerative condition with (medically) no known cure. She now calls this her Sacred Tremor, without her continuing journey to find balance with the condition she turned it into an advantage and found her way to her womb and the earth.
In this show, we explored what Phoenix describes as feminine-inspired leadership, which comes out of the spiritual connection between body and Gaia. This was a delicious episode, overflowing with wisdom and love. I hope you found it as inspiring as I did.
I’d love to know what YOU think about this week’s show. Let’s carry on the conversation… please leave a comment below.
Resources and stuff that we spoke about:
Feminine-inspired leadership is returning to the breath, the womb and the earth. It’s learning to listen to our emotions, biology and psychology – from inside.
If a woman is menstruating, she is being guided by her cycle as to how close to herself she is and how far away from herself she is. We can chart the cycle and learn to listen to the body… the womb becomes a compass and we can learn to flow with the earth, the seasons and the moon.
Every womb births a different gift, be it caring, creating, sexual, sensual or seeing – what’s yours? Go outside, lie down on the earth, breathe into your womb space whilst visualising something loving in the centre of the earth. Ask a question and listen.
