Patriarchy has been serving up roofied kool-aid
And it’s time to stop gulping it down
It might have you believing
You’re a strong woman because you are low maintenance
You’re a strong woman because you can “handle” poor treatment and misogyny
You’re a strong woman because you can play with the big boys
You’re a strong woman who can have casual s/x without needing more
You’re a strong woman who can perform all the emotional and domestic labor of the family AND bring home a paycheck
You’re a strong woman because you sacrifice yourself and lose your identity for the good of the family
You’re a strong woman because you are an over-achiever and hard worker
In my world, the strongest women are the ones who uncouple from the patriarchy
Who recognize that they are worthy without performing anything- just in their own existence
That they are a gift in and of themselves AND
They are worthy of receiving gifts
Gifts that aren’t just bestowed upon them
But gifts that are self-curated
Gifts that they have asked for
Gifts that they are READY TO RECEIVE
Join me starting this Friday in Ready to Receive where you divorce yourself from the patriarchal conditioning that has you performing instead of receiving
