Mary Jane.
Not the shoes, but the woman who owned the small business where I’d been hired to help in an assistant role.
Mary Jane liked things done one way, and one way only.
Her way or it was wrong.
Never mind that the result is the same. She was a sock, shoe, sock, shoe sort of person. Those that are sock, sock, shoe, shoe — well, that’s just wrong.
The entire conference table was set up for a project. She showed me how to do it (her way).
It didn’t work in my brain; in fact, I found it illogical.
So I did it my way.
As a micro manager, she came in to hover… and I got busted! I had to switch back to her way.
But then I switched back.
This environment was oppressive.
It’s an environment I did not and do not thrive in.
This experience was at a time in my life when I was pushing my way out of my cocoon — and Mary Jane kept shoving me back in to cook a bit longer to her liking. Trouble was I was ready to emerge… And I was finding myself in the wrong room!
This experience, among others, is why I love working with women to help them unlock something within themselves. We in particular have been kept small, and it’s time to unleash our brilliance and step into our full power.
It sounds all good and flowery, but the truth is, it can be daunting. After all, we have not only our life history to look back on, this keeping women small thing goes back — way back — in our lineage. It is ancestral.
Let us, let you be the one to break the cycle.
For as you do, you impact your lineage both going forward and backwards. Make room for your girls, your daughters, your granddaughters, nieces, etc. to create a path for themselves with ease. As we lead the way by breaking paradigms, they can more easily step into a new one. They can have a life experience with much more empowerment.
To that end, I invite you to my upcoming UNLOCK your Quintessential. A four day experience to explore the Quintessential Woman you are. You’ll meet the 3 archetypes of the Quintessential Woman—your Inner Goddess—and how you view your life and how you can influence generations to come will never be the same.
