In this episode of Don’t Tell Me To Calm Down, we’re diving into the invisible rulebook almost every woman inherits — the one that shapes how you speak, how you show up, how you judge yourself, and even how you judge other women.

If you’ve ever wondered why you apologize too much, policeyour body, downplay your success, or feel triggered by women who are loud, bold, or unapologetic…

There’s a reason — and it’s not your personality.

It’s internalized cultural programming.

And today, we’re bringing it into the light.

In this episode, you’ll discover:

*What internalized misogyny actually is (and why most women swear they don’t have it)

*The subtle ways cultural conditioning becomes your innervoice

*A 7-question quiz to reveal where internalized bias isrunning your life

*How women learn to distrust their own intuition, emotions,and power

*Why judging other women is usually self-protection, notmalice

*How body image is shaped by patriarchy, media, andinherited beliefs

*The truth about why so many women feel “too much,” “notenough,” or both

*Why recognizing internalized misogyny is not shameful —it’s liberating

You’ll also hear a personal story about beautystandards, aging, and how appearance-based conditioning can live inside us for decades without being questioned.

What makes this episode different:

We’re not blaming women.

We’re tracing the source back to systems, culture, conditioning, and generational patterns — and showing you how to reclaim your voice from all of it.

This week’s actionable practice:

When a self-critical thought appears, don’t argue with it.
Simply name it for what it is:

“That’s conditioning.”

“That’s the good girl script.”

“That’s the body-policing culture talking.”

Naming the source creates separation. Separation createssovereignty. This is where your reclamation begins.

You’ve been taught your whole life that the feminine issoft, irrational, emotional, or fragile.
And you’ve been taught that real power is logical, productive,linear, and fast.

But what if everything you learned about feminine energy isbackwards?

In this episode of Don’t Tell Me To Calm Down,we’re dismantling the myths about divine feminine energy — and exploring why so many women feel disconnected, burned out, or “too much,” when in truth, their feminine intelligence is the source of their deepest power.

This is the episode for you if you’re feeling exhausted,misaligned, or like you’re living from performance rather than truth.

In this episode, we explore:

* Why feminine energy has been misunderstood, mocked, orfeared

*The real definition of divine feminine energy (and why ithas nothing to do with being passive or “soft”)

*How cultural conditioning pushes women into masculineoverdrive

*Why intuition, emotion, and cyclical living are forms ofdeep intelligence

*How suppressing feminine energy leads to burnout, boredom,and soul exhaustion

*The rise of feminine leadership — and why you may feelcalled to something more

*The sacred fire of feminine rage (and why it’s actuallyclarity, not chaos)

*How to begin reconnecting to your feminine wisdom today

You’ll also hear how my PhD research, shamanic training, andthe Wisdom Protocol come together to help women reclaim their intuition, alignment, and inner authority — without abandoning their ambition or drive.

Your actionable takeaway this week:

*Pause before you perform.
*Notice the moment you override your intuition, swallow your emotion, or pushyourself past your own boundaries.
*Create a breath of space to listen.

That’s where feminine wisdom returns.
