✨When #sisterhood starts • During my travels I have found female leaders and CEOs in male-dominated industries tend to put on a wall. Between workplace and social expectations of how they should behave once arriving to top positions, it is more often than not that we lose connection on what bonds us together. Last year I got certified as a facilitator of red tents and my biggest test didn’t come from holding space for #feminineleaders but from guiding women leading extremely (and, some solely) from their masculine on how to evolve. In a series of workshops for female CEOs and executive leaders in a government institution, talking about sisterhood was seen as joke. There were many reasons to distrust each other: power dynamics, higher/lower ranks, behavioral attitudes and more. So, my co-facilitator and I came up with a two-way exercise in which women had to: SHARE. Talk through a circumstance, how they dealt it from toxic masculinity and how could a balanced approach, how could more empathy/tolerance/vulnerability/assertiveness, change the outcome. And this beautiful thing in video happened. They started to TALK on the same level. They started to HEAR one another. They started to UNDERSTAND why they acted, thought or talked a certain way... That was the moment I knew the concept #risesisterrise is cherished halfway. Sisterhood is not only for women in wellness/sacred spaces. It is for all of us. Gurus tell us about the wonders of having tribes but not on how hard or easy is to begin with opening a path for pact to flourish. More compassion, less judgement; more openings, less isolation is what is needed. I am a huge believer that we can shine individually and we can thrive together as deeply and as honest as we allow ourselves (and others!) to do so.
#Survey✨👩🏻💻After three years of coaching business women on how to grow their ventures and interviewing dozens of others worldwide for my social impact blog @luminainc, I have found there is a need to create a wider community that connects female #changemakers already doing a difference in the world.
✍️My hypothesis is that though there are many business coaching tribes out there, there is still a call for support between similar female-led enterprises that can benefit from helping each other soar as leaders and as businesses without borders.
Therefore, I created this small survey with the goal of confirming the need and how to properly address it by forming an initiatives directory or an international collective.🙌
👩🏻💻If you are interested in sharing your views, I invite you to fill the quick 5 minute questionnaire you will find in my link in bio🙏💫
✨Oh! And please share this survey with your peers and friends who may also be interested! Looking forward to know you more and connect with you in the near future, for your time and words in advance: THANK YOU! 💜
