EP 74 - How to rise tenderly into adult womanhood and become a confident, powerful healer - with Archetypal Gold

With Nicole Barton

On the Secret Witch Show today, Nicole is exploring the commonly missed initiation into ‘womanhood’ that so many sensitive women, who were born to be ‘healers,’ often experience - and how this can leave them feeling ‘powerless’ and ‘unconfident’, and fearing that the path of becoming a healer isn’t for them (when in fact it is).

In this episode Nicole dives into the rites of passage into adulthood that we often miss in today’s busy, chaotic culture - which often sees the true heart-led ‘softpower’ of the Feminine as ‘weak,’ ‘lazy’ and ‘shameful’, and leads us to suppress ourselves and people-please to fit in. She explores how - even when we feel powerless, and like a little girl in an adult’s body - we are really being called into learning to heal our wounding around power so that we can become confident women - and healers who lead powerfully from body wisdom, heart and soul.

What You’ll Learn from this Episode:

Women in today’s crazy modern culture will often miss the ‘initiation’ into adult womanhood that our Ancestresses would have had, which leaves them feeling a lack of power - or like a ‘little girl stuck in an adult woman’s body’
When we don’t know our power, we will doubt ourselves and lack confidence - and fear that we aren’t cut out to be a healer - and this isn’t true, it’s just a sign that we have wounding around our power to heal first
What’s required is for us to tenderly learn to heal our wounding around ‘power’ and learn to embody our true Feminine ‘soft-power’ - the Feminine power that is innate in us that is soft, tender, open, relaxed and soul-led (which gets shamed in our society as ‘weak’ and ‘lazy’)
Archetypal Remedy, Aurum is the antidote to this, initiating us into our Feminine soft-power and helping us to begin to illuminate and self-heal our power wounding, with self-love and compassion
Without choosing into an initiation - or rite of passage - into our soft-power, we will feel stuck with our inner little girl (innocently) running the show - and largely she is making decisions from a place of fear and a ‘fight, flight, freeze or fawn’ nervous system response
For those sensitive women who are here to become healers - those of us who want to discover and express our gifts - we need to embody our power so that we can face the common challenges along the path of becoming a healer; and this is why our power wounding is so important to heal.
