Reclaiming Feminine Wisdom in a Masculine World with Author Alanna Kaivalya

In this episode, I sit down with the passionate Alanna Kaivalya to explore the lost — yet ever-present — power of the feminine. While modern women have more freedom than ever to shape our lives and careers, many of us still measure success through a masculine lens, chasing goals and strategies that don’t reflect our deepest desires.This conversation is not about rejecting the masculine, but about reclaiming the feminine — the intuitive, connective, and compassionate energy that too often gets sidelined. Alanna, a bestselling author and spiritual teacher, shares insights from her new book The Way of the Satisfied Woman, a powerful guide for anyone seeking an alternative path to fulfillment.Together, we discuss how embracing the feminine can liberate us from burnout, invite greater ease, and reconnect us with what matters most: meaningful relationships, inner peace, and authentic expression.Alanna Kaivalya, PhD is a bestselling author, educator, thought leader, and expert on mythology, spirituality, psychology, and women’s empowerment. The author of Sacred Sound and Myths of the Asanas, she earned a doctorate in mythological studies with an emphasis in depth psychology from Pacifica Graduate Institute and is the host of The Satisfied Woman podcast.In this conversation, Alanna discusses:What defines femininity Why connecting with the feminine is more important than everWhat models of satisfaction look like for the modern womanHow women don't realize how minimized and oppressed they areThe definition of "satisfaction"Her run-in with facebookMasculinity and femininityCurating your lifeFour keys to a satisfied lifeRelearning how to interactTrustThe habit of apologizingVisit Alanna's website Listen to The Satisfied Woman podcast________ Listen to some absurd and unhelpful nonsense Inside the Box with Claire and Wendy podcast BECOME YOUR OWN SHAMAN Introductory Online Course Visit Wendy’s website to learn more about the the Harmonic Egg®  Lucid Cafe episodes by topic  Listen to Lucid Cafe on YouTube  ★ Support this podcast ★
