In this weeks episode, Michelle, shares her views on the female empowerment culture we see played out on social media platforms.

Michelle shares:

• Why the female empowerment culture is not trauma-informed
• The link between patriarchy, capitalism, and narcissism
• The harm caused by the promotion of privilege
• The difference between cultural norms V's biological norms
• Why our nervous system hasn't evolved at the same rate as technology
• The focus on image V's what's on the inside
• Why we are more than a story and narrative
• The power and agency of shifting the focus to our skills, qualifications, trainings & professional practice
• How to integrate an embodied lens into female empowerment
• How our nervous system influences what we share and how we share it

We must work together to create a new culture, a new narrative, a new world.

Be brave!
