Description

Sarah and Mary are excited AND nervous to be sharing their opinions on masculine and feminine energies and how they think today's world is currently impacting them & your dating life!


Key takeaways 

  • Sarah’s opinion is that we as a society have lost what it means to be masculine & feminine
  • Mary questions if we can find a way to fulfill our individual energies in today’s world.
  • Sarah believes we can & it’s going to take going back to understand what these energies are
  • Mary reminds us that we have both masculine and feminine energy within us all
  • Sarah and Mary discuss the difference between roles and energies. Roles over time have changed, energies have not however these changes have caused confusion for us Previously it was a woman’s role to keep the house while the man went to work. Women have more choices & freedom now and these former roles are less clear
  • Mary believes we haven’t ever really had conscious thoughts or teachings about ‘who am I in the world.. as a woman or a man or as dad or partner…’
  • We all learned about interacting with the opposite sex from our parents who we’re really taught about roles or energies either
  • Sarah realizes she was seeing ‘high powered’ work roles as masculine in energy. Mary shares that bringing a feminine energy to working with men can be lovely and helpful
  • Sarah and Mary discuss how mostly we are reacting to life and not necessarily being aware of what’s going on & what energy we are in
  • In our current society dictates we go to work and earn money (provide) which may cause women to be more in their masculine energy
  • Sarah gives some tips on how to be more in your feminine energy. Be intentional!
  • The energies have stayed the same but the dating game has changed which seems to be leaving men confused about their role in is. Should I pay? Can I offer to carry her bag?
  • Mary admits she’s struggled to allow men to do these things and Sarah laughs and shares that she loves when men offer to carry her bag and begs Mary to stop making her life so hard!
  • Sarah & Mary discuss how woman are struggling with being independent & wanting to be looked after by a man
  • Sarah & Mary add in how our 'junk' (past trauma/negative experiences) as an individual & society also impacts who we interact with each other & shape our current roles.
  • Sarah & Mary give examples of our current ‘junk’ & how it is different from energy or roles
  • Sarah is partly attracted to the ‘traditional’ roles (men provide & women nurture) and how she also resists this idea. Mary breaks down how this is energy vs roles.
  • 2021 is an exciting time because we get to create what being feminine looks like.
  • We have so much freedom of choice now and as humans we are exploring lots of different options in dating. Open/alternative relationships. 
  • Mary discusses how our level of conscious has us have lots of choices and leads us to be unsure when we are doing something we perceive as different from everyone else. Sarah encourages everyone to explore any kind of dating experience you want
