Divine Feminine - it's in us all

On this road to the Divine Feminine, Theresa & Sherry take many turns.  They share stories & opinions, while quoting articles and asking questions, all in service of understanding a little bit better.The Maiden, The Mother, and The Crone are the three major stages of the Divine Feminine.  In this episode, the hosts touch on the qualities of each stage and how they are not confined to chronology alone.  They reveal how these energies arise as metaphor in many ways throughout life’s journey.In partnership, to be in divine sisterhood means we get to challenge AND inspire each other, without fear or threat.  We learn to navigate rocky terrain and resolve conflict by accessing our inner (Divine) feminine energies, including trust, support, sisterhood, receptivity, and compassion.  In service of balance, masculine energy is required to find external expression & manifestation.Words have power and having all the options allows the communicator to be more nuanced or direct, so she can most honestly express herself.  Direct, outward expression may come from masculine energy, but crafting the communication may come more from the feminine.This topic is so juicy, the hosts opted to extend this conversation into two episodes, with distinct approaches to the same subject.
