Connecting to Your Inner Masculine and Feminine: How to Embody Both Your Soft and Protective Energies

We are all created with the ability to access both our inner masculine and feminine energies. These energies shape how we move through the world, but are not confined to gender or societal expectations. In this episode of You Make Sense, Sarah breaks down the science behind these polarities, how nature reveals that they’re universal and designed for survival, and why we all carry both within us.You’ll learn about what causes us to disconnect from one of these energies, how society distorts them from the moment you’re born, and why you might identify with one more than the other depending on the area of life. Sarah also unpacks how each of these energies plays out in romantic relationships and steps to begin leaning more into your true self. Finally, Rachel joins Sarah to answer questions from listeners that touch on healing protective parts, staying in the present, and joining instead of merging. Episode Highlights:[00:25] The science behind masculine and feminine energy[01:57] How nature teaches us that masculine and feminine energy are not gender specific[08:36] Why we all have both energetic qualities and how we oscillate between them[09:27] What causes us to disconnect from one of these energies[23:00] How to access both of these energetic qualities within ourselves[26:05] Leaning into feminine energy within a romantic relationship[29:17] Leaning into masculine energy within a romantic relationship[38:47] Question 1: Healing protective parts that refuse to let you receive help[52:23] Question 2: The power of orienting yourself to the present moment[1:01:47] Question 3: The concept of joining rather than mergingGet on the Waitlist for Sarah’s 10-Week Program:Ready for tools to heal every area of your life?
