Shannon Thompson: The Internalized Patriarchy

What this episode covers

#316: The Amy Ahlers Show is especially for emerging, rising and established women leaders that are ready to STOP being so hard on themselves so they can make their greatest contribution, rise, and lead. Show notes for today’s episode can be found at www.amyahlersshow.com/316 Patriarchy is defined as "a system of society or government in which men hold the power and women are largely excluded from it." When we think about patriarchy, we usually think about the systems that exist in the world. But what about the systems of patriarchy that exist INSIDE us? I brought in a powerful guest, Shannon Thompson, founder and visionary director of Shakti Rising, a non-profit social change organization transforming the lives of women, girls, and the larger community, to take part in this galvanizing conversation. Listen in and discover:  How the feminine has been systematically suppressed What internalized patriarchy costs men The beginning of how to deconstruct this insanity! Make sure to check out the work Shakti Rising is doing in the world and consider giving a year-end donation to this important organization. www.ShaktiRising.org
