Heresy Heals: The Broken Bond Between Women- Female Competition, Finding Friends as an Adult, Letting Go, Sitting At the Feet of Your Masters (Part 3)
This episode is focused on the relationships and community we find in other women and how these bonds have been damaged. In today’s society, most women are in a state of burnout or wearing a more masculine mask as a defense mechanism - neither of which provides a conducive environment for making and building relationships with other women.
In this episode:
[01:50] We continue our Heresy Heals Series with Part 3 today.
[04:00] Our constant search for safety behind a masculine mask keeps us from being seen and building friendships.
[12:49] As women, our basic desire is to be seen and heard and to be safe while being seen and heard.
[15:31] We all carry our own vibrations, and we attract the energy we are putting out.
[17:25] The mistake of expecting your partner to fill the void of female connection.
[19:10] We have a deep need for a community of other women.
[22:16] We need to shift our perspective when seeking female connections to understand where other women are coming from.
[23:59] The concept of Intersexual Competition.
[28:39] Exercising caution when seeking friends to ensure you are avoiding women in a state of competition.
[32:32] We should be praying to our creator for friends instead of actively seeking friends.
[34:16] Shift your focus to connecting with women who share your values.
[39:49] Approach your relationships from the perspective of giving. Focus on what you can give instead of what you can receive.
[42:40] Periods of loneliness in your life are often lessons.
[44:46] Thanks for joining me today on The Fully Nourished Podcast.
