Uncover the rejected feminine and heal your relationship to the masculine.

The Sacred Beauty of Being a Woman is a 4-week program to explore your relationship to womanhood so you can embody the truth of who you are. You’ll uncover aspects of the feminine you’ve rejected, ways you’ve self-abandoned through an allegiance to the masculine, how to bridge the divide and learn to love and trust men, and begin to deepen into a sacred embodiment of yourself.

AN EXCERPT FROM MY MEMOIR, WRITE A NEW STORY

Being a woman was nothing I had ever seen as sacred. The betrayals against the feminine had been sanctioned far before I arrived on this planet. I was just caught up in the residue.

Everything that was celebrated seemed to be masculine. We were taught to conquer, to blaze trails, to use force to get what we want. The legacy of colonialism was celebrated even though the violence burns us all.

I felt masculine for most of my life. It didn’t help that everyone told me that I looked like my Dad, that my Italian roots sprouted a ladystache, and that my arms were hairier than most boys. It didn’t help that I was one of the last girls to get my period or that the breasts I had waited for had still never arrived.

I felt masculine until I crossed my thirties and discovered I could remove all of the protective layers shrouding my heart. Someone brought me cleaning supplies, and I hosed out all of the rage, shame, and resentment caked inside. I learned how to release the enormous grief that swelled in my chest. I found a way to be soft and strong, tender and fierce, nurturing and assertive, and loving without abandoning myself.

What does it mean to be a woman anyway? No one ever told me.

What I heard was that I should have babies, so I decided I didn’t want them. I saw that we were expected to be nurses, so I decided I wanted to be a lawyer. The mannequins wore dresses, so I put on jeans. They showed me my feelings were too much, so I leaned back and released the lever to the firehose, spewing them all over the house.

I always knew I couldn’t trust them. I always knew I didn’t want to be who they thought I should be. The problem was that I was living in reaction to a system instead of being who I truly was. 

As my Dad would say, “That’s how they get you.”

Hi, I'm Michelle.

It wasn’t until many years of deep healing that I began to explore my relationship to being a woman. Through my second memoir, Write A New Story, I began to uncover how the messages I received about being a woman deeply impacted me. I recognized the armor I carried, the true desires I embodied, and the way I felt about men were inherently intertwined with my womanhood.

Through this deep shadow work I bumped up against uncomfortable truths about my allegiance to the masculine as well as unconscious emotions I held towards men. I have discovered that being a woman is a gift, not an arbitrary genetic assignment. Acknowledging that truth has unlocked dormant wisdom. As I healed, I found more freedom in my self-expression, a deeper connection to my femininity, and a newfound understanding of myself.

During a time when gender, polarity, and many other topics are heated politic debates and avenues to displace unprocessed emotion, my journey has been to go inward and reckon within myself.

This offering is not about becoming anything other than who you already are. It is not about becoming what you think femininity is. It is about uncovering the rejected aspects of yourself so you can feel more liberated.
