We spent this morning in petitions honoring Humility. Meggan Watterson says Mary Magdalene teaches us to combat the 3rd power of the ego, ignorance, by seeing that "humility is our greatest strength." Here at the Magdalene Network, we learn to recognize the power ignorance has over us when we notice we're trying to control everything and working to prove who we are. It's such a subtle shift in perspective... from striving to being. You'd think it would be the easiest thing in the world to notice when we see it written out like this. But it's not. When I was stuck in striving, I would have told you I had it all figured out. I was successful, getting things done, holding down the fort! Knowing what I needed to be doing meant following the 101 playbook for succeeding in our society. I had to be sure, because if I wasn't, it would all fall apart. It wasn't even a thought, much less an option. So hell yeah, I was pure grit, bear down, push, and get it done, no matter what. Then figure it out later if it wasn't "right." I always already had the to-do list ready. I had to. And there was no time for second-guessing. Whoa. So to sit here now, after a few years of shifting this perspective... letting go of all my knowing of what needed to be done to win the game of life, and learning instead to simply BE in this life as who I am, through my inner knowing of self... It's almost impossible to put into words. Like almost everything we talk about around here, humility has nothing to do with what we first imagine that arises when we hear the word. The word "humility" raises visions of weakness, self-deprecation, passivity, or making ourselves small. Society mistakes humility for these things because our modern culture is explicitly designed to reward and amplify the ego. We have been amplifying these 7 powers of the ego for thousands of years!! 🤯 We live in a hyper-competitive, highly visible world where the traits required for survival and success are often the exact opposite of quiet self-awareness.

We all have a pattern that runs the show. Most of us can't see it while it's happening. Read these and tell me which number is you. ✅1. You walk in already braced. Something's going to go wrong and you don't trust yourself to handle it. ✅2. You want something for yourself, and you feel guilty for wanting it. ✅3. You say yes to everyone. Fixing, carrying, holding it all together. You smile. You're exhausted. ✅4. Someone hurt you, and you've quietly closed your heart. Or someone's life looks easier and it stings. ✅5. You swallow what you really want to say. Again. ✅6. Someone says "everything happens for a reason" and you nod, even though it doesn't sit right. ✅7. The anger comes out over something tiny. Or it never comes out at all. 𝘐'𝘭𝘭 𝘨𝘰 𝘧𝘪𝘳𝘴𝘵.

We’re continuing our month of RAGE tonight, in honor of I AM JANE DOE. One of the things that keeps coming up for me is how much changes when women realize they are not alone in what they’ve experienced. So many of us have carried things privately for years. We questioned ourselves. We wondered if we were overreacting. We blamed ourselves for staying, for freezing, for saying nothing, for not knowing what to do. And then another woman tells her story and suddenly something clicks. You recognize yourself in her. You realize she felt the same shame. The same fear. The same confusion. The same anger. And little by little, the isolation starts to break. That is what I want to make space for tonight. A circle where women can be heard. A circle where we can recognize the larger patterns in what so many of us have lived through. A circle where we can let some of that rage have a voice, safely and together. There is something powerful about being witnessed by other women. Sometimes just hearing another woman say, “Me too,” changes the way we see our own story. Red Thread Circle Tonight at 8 PM ET / 5 PM PT https://us06web.zoom.us/j/82674428165 Bring your journal and come as you are. You never have to share anything you don’t want to share. Just being present matters. See you tonight, sisters. 🌹

There is a rage moving through women right now, and I don't think it appeared overnight. I think we are finally becoming conscious of what we have been angry about all along. Our bodies. Our sexuality. Our worth. The boundaries we surrendered. The shame we inherited. The things we swallowed because good women were supposed to keep the peace. And I'm no longer interested in telling women to breathe it away. What if we listened to it? What is your anger protecting? What happened that you never fully allowed yourself to name? What did you learn about being a woman because of it? And what is your body still carrying that your Soul is finally ready to release? This is Sacred Rage. Not rage as permission to hurt. Rage as information. Rage as the alarm at the boundary. Rage as the beginning of a conversation with ourselves that many women have avoided their entire lives. So this October, we're doing something different inside the Magdalene Network. We're dedicating the entire month to Sacred Rage. ✍️ First Wednesday: NAME IT 🔥 Second Wednesday: HEAR IT 🧵 Third Wednesday: WITNESS IT 🌹 Fourth Wednesday: RELEASE IT Plus daily petitions and free Saturday community petitions and prayer throughout the month. We cannot release what we refuse to admit happened. And we aren't doing this so we can stay angry. We're doing it because we want to become free. ________________________________ 📢📢📢📢📢📢📢 MARK YOUR CALENDARS ________________________________ ✍️ FIRST WEDNESDAY | WRITE RIGHT MEDICINE NAME IT: The Letter I Was Never Allowed to Write Before we can release something, we have to be willing to name it. Write the uncensored letter you were never allowed to write. To a person. A parent. A partner. A church. A system. Your younger self. Maybe even God. No sending. No performing. No making it pretty. Just truth. ______________________________________________________ 🔥 SECOND WEDNESDAY | SOUL VOICE ACTIVATION HEAR IT: Sacred Rage, What Is Your Anger Trying to Protect?

In continuing our month of Rage, in honor of I AM JANE DOE, this Wednesday’s Soul Voice Activation is going somewhere a little deeper. We’ve already been talking about the anger that rises when women begin comparing notes. The things we tolerated. The things we minimized. The things we were told not to talk about. But what happens after the event? What happens when the experience is over, but the fear, shame, distrust, or belief it created is still living inside us? That’s what we’re exploring this week. Sometimes the wound closes, but the scar still changes the way we see. Maybe someone betrayed you and years later you still struggle to trust. Maybe nobody protected you and you learned to depend only on yourself. Maybe a boundary was crossed and you began believing your needs didn’t matter. Maybe you were blamed for something someone else did, and you carried the shame long after the event itself was over. This Wednesday in Soul Voice Activation: The Woman at the Fire, we’re going to ask: What did this experience teach me to believe? How is that belief still affecting the way I love, trust, speak, choose, or protect myself? And then: What does my Soul know is actually true? This isn’t about staying in the rage. It’s about using the rage to see clearly. Wrath helps us see what was wrong. Soul Voice helps us see what is true. Love helps us choose what comes next. Wednesday, October 14 8 PM ET / 5 PM PT Included for Magdalene Initiates $17 Single Circle Pass for non-members 👉LINK to purchase single circle Bring your journal, two small pieces of paper, and a bowl of water. We’re going to listen to the wound. Then we’re going to listen deeper. 🌹
