The woman who embodies true feminine power does not aim to be good. She aims to be whole. She does not fear being too much — she fears being edited.

The very things you were told would make you worthy — being quiet, sweet, soft — are the very things that silenced your instinct, suppressed your magnetism, and stole your edge.

What you gain, instead, is real power. Not power over others, but power over your own energy, your own choices, your own voice

woman who is no longer addicted to being liked becomes dangerous to a system that profits from her self-doubt.

There is nothing more compelling than a woman who doesn’t need validation to feel whole.

She’s not loud. She doesn’t beg. She doesn’t chase. She simply is — full-spectrum, emotionally honest, willing to take up space without asking for permission.

She is not always kind. She is always true.

There is a part of you that has always known.

This is the dark feminine.

Not dark as in evil, but dark as in hidden. Suppressed. Misunderstood
