As professional and corporate women in this society we have been forced to fit a square peg into a round hole...navigating a male dominated work force that was not designed with us in mind.
This is leading to unprecedented numbers of women ending up with chronic illnesses such as burnout, anxiety, immune disorders and menstrual-womb dysfunctions.
It was recently reported that 33% of corporate women are experiencing severe cases of illness* from the age of 30 and above.
We begin to feel boxed in, lose our sense of self, become hard in order to feel respected and 'equal' and sucked into the high pressure, high stress environments.
Then, we find ourselves morphing into this tough, competitive and ego-driven world where everyone is just trying to 'one up' each other - which just leaves us in a constant state of survival mode - always looking over our shoulder and protecting our back...
Not to mention the added pressure of being the partner, wife, mum, running the household, doing the finances and juggling all the things!
And all this is leading us into major burnout and complete breakdowns.
WE WERE NOT MEANT FOR THIS KIND OF LIFE LADIES!
Where are YOU in amongst all this?
This is happening to women in our society because the traditional workforce is completely ignoring our innate gifts as a woman and the invisible barriers we face.
The workforce was built on the masculine hormonal cycle of sunrise to sunset and the 24 hour cycle... but as women we function on a 28 day cycle, so this creates a huge misalignment within our mind, body and soul.
As women, I believe we need to come back to our innate body wisdom in order to achieve a more balanced and sustainable success in our careers…
To reclaim our birthright as creative, intuitive beings and come back to a healthier balance of the thinking mind and our body wisdom.
The time has come to bring the balance back and to demand a workforce that allows women to thrive in their role as leaders…to lead as a woman, not a man!
To demand a workforce that supports the distinct different work style and abilities of both our men and women.
If this resonates deeply for you and you’d like to be a more influential leader without working harder, sacrificing more or being too masculine, I invite you to join us at The Attuned Woman 4 Day Retreat.
