Shadows are those things about yourself that you know , you are in touch with and you don’t like and you are afraid that people will find these about you. All of us have them. We live with the law of duality, which states that everything is on a continuum and has a complementary opposite within the whole. Masculine and Feminine - are two energies in the same body. Light and Dark, Day and Night; these are the same things on opposite spectrums Honoring our shadows honors our dual nature. When we keep our shadows in the dark, we always look at them as something outside of us. Something that we have to “work on” If you don’t know who you are and claim it, you will consistently look to others for permission to be who you think you might be or desire to be. You’ll always be caught in that loop of approval. However If you know who you are with conviction then no one can define your worth or bring you down or say what’s possible for you or not When you own your shadows and bring them to light, you can truly see them as a part of you rather than outside of you. In this episode, you’ll learn how you can bring your shadows to light and make them a part of you.

My guest today is Bushra Azhar, The Queen of Persuasion. She believes that human beings are irrational and trying to persuade someone through a rational argument is like trying to stop a 5-year-old from ODing on M&Ms by recounting the evils of high fructose corn syrup. She is a self-made multi-millionaire and an international bestselling author on Selling & Consumer Behavior. She teaches tiny businesses how to make big bucks, using the Psychology of Persuasion and her students have used her persuasion hacks to make millions of dollars in 50+ different industries while slashing their ad spend by 80%. Here’s a sample of what you’ll hear on this episode: How Bushra went from being a self-made multimillionaire and a best-selling author on sales & consumer behavior The importance to go deep and not wide in your business The magic behind Bushra’s ability to get repeat customers again and again How Bushra deals with trolls on the internet And because this is a patriarchy smashing podcast, we talked about the meaning of Bushra’s name (yes, it has something to do with patriarchy) and how Bushra has time and again bucked the system.

Patriarchy has been running the show in Online Business. Over the years we have been indoctrinated with messaging and marketing practices that are unethical, out of integrity and not inclusive. Knowingly or unknowingly we’ve all been a part of it. 2020 was a wake up call we all badly needed. There’s no going back but the way forward is messy, unclear and not easy. Today on How to Womxn, I am talking to Tarzan Kay about all this and much more! Together, we are unpacking Patriarchy as it exists in Online Marketing and discovering ethical ways to dismantle it. Here’s a small sample of what you will hear: The story behind Tarzan’s name and how it changed her life The “Rags to Riches” story we’ve all heard in Marketing and how it has indoctrinated us to believe in “6 figures in 6 months” messaging The beauty behind sharing your process of unlearning and healing AND the mess behind sharing from your gaping, bleeding wound How to practice ethical marketing while using Principles of Persuasion The shifts Tarzan has made in her business to be more inclusive and being ethical in marketing You can find Tarzan here - www.tarzankay.com Follow her on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/tarzan_kay/ Find Deepshikha on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/deepshikhasairam/ Follow along on The Deep End Project here - https://socialiquegroupe.com/blog/

Your Inner Wisdom aka your Intuition is The voice of your higher self The whole idea behind living your life like a Rich Lady is living from your body and not your mind. Our goal should be to tame our mind. And not let it tame us. But we have so much shame when it comes to practicing our intuition when it is one thing if you strengthen, you will never have shiny object syndrome. This doesn’t mean you won’t ever buy a course or start planting your own food (although if that’s what you want, you can do that). This means you will take decisions not from a place of “I need to fix myself” but from a place of “this is best for me to grow and develop” There are 3 steps to practicing your Intuition: Practice Ask Trust Join Deepshikha’s Facebook Group - https://www.facebook.com/groups/createyourrichladylifeandbiz for more exercises and guidance on building you inner wisdom
Oh my gosh, this episode is so juicy. Marisa lost her dad when she was very young.

Now she runs a highly successful business with her husband supporting her as a partner in her life and business. We chat about how they balance their life and business and how has deals with the typical Patriarchal conditioning of “Man needs to be the sole provider of the family.” This episode is for you if you too like Marisa wants your husband to quit his sucky job and follow his dreams and/or be a partner in your business or if you are doing that currently and wants to know all about navigating this new way of business and marriage.

It might seem like the best thing to do in your business is to Amplify in your business but if you want to run a profitable business that not only makes money but also bucks the system, you need to go small, very small.

There’s a quote going around on Instagram. It goes like this “The recipe to success? Get up earlier. Work Harder. Fail. Fail again. Never give up.” What the what? You know what this quote does? It contributes to a Culture that normalizes Burnout. No. It’s not okay to “crush it.” It’s not okay to wake up earlier and earlier and give up sleep. It’s not okay to work harder and harder and give up social life, your mental and physical health. Sadly it’s all too prevalent among entrepreneurs. Well guess what, it’s not our fault. Patriarchy has taught us that we have to keep our nose to the grindstone all the time. It’s not our fault but it is 100% our responsibility to buck it. Today I am talking to a Burnout Expert and author of the book, The Bouncebackability Factor: End Burnout, Gain Resilience, and Change the World, Caitlin Donovan In this episode we are talking about how burnout sneaks up on you as women entrepreneurs and what can you do to end it!

I call it the Ripple Effect. These drops in the ocean is enough to create that Ripple Effect that’s smashing the Patriarchy.

My guest today, Lara Americo, is an artist and journalist living in NYC. Their work focuses on the experience of being a trans-feminine person and issues related to the transgender people. Lara says “Living in this world as a trans-feminine person of color is revolutionary. Existing in a society that routinely denies your existence is a direct action to colonization. I buck the system by living an authentic life. This is something that is hard for both transgender and cisgender people, alike. The patriarchy exists because gender roles and the hierarchy related to binary gender exists. My existence proves that gender is arbitrary and the patriarchy is arbitrary.” In this episode Lara shares her story of courage, sacrifices, pain and the purest form of love she’s experienced.

When Heidi was told at age 7 that she cannot become a priest, she was devastated. All she wanted to do was to help people find God and be on stage every single week. It was the best job in the world. However, there was a problem. She was a girl and girls could only become a Nun. Not a priest. Lucky for womxn today, she instead became a Body Mind Coach specializing in Empowering Womxn to Lead From Within. What that means is truly tapping that inner wisdom, the God(dess) within and leading an aligned life. Growing up in the patriarchal culture she realised that real reverence is reverence for yourself first. In this conversation, we chat about what leading from within looks like. Heidi and I also talk about why it’s important to heal the patriarchy, after we smash it!

Lisa shows womxn of influence how to keep enough bandwidth in reserve so they always have the capacity to unabashedly embrace each new level of success, turn curveballs into home runs, and stay grounded in what matters most! She draws from her 15 years of mental health experience as a clinical social worker and her trauma survivorship to provide education, training, and supervision for coaches who are committed to safe and ethical practice.
