What is a feminine business – an article for the sensitive, aspirational, creative woman who wants to birth her gifts in the world through a business that nourishes + enriches both her soul and her bank account.

when i decided to translate my personal journey of feminine embodiment into a business practice, my natural instinct was to look around for success stories of those who had walked this path before me.
i was curious to see how they were applying the art of feminine embodiment in the way they led themselves, created their businesses and offered their services.
that exciting pursuit soon turned into a disappointment when i saw practitioners in the feminine embodiment space hustling in their hyper-masculine energy to create six, seven figure businesses.
as someone who had opted out of that same hustle by leaving her high-flying corporate career behind, my nervous system instantly refused to accept those as the kind of success stories i needed for this next phase of my life.
where was the ease, where was the pleasure, where was the richness in these stories – my heart searched for these answers.
having spent the previous year on a sabbatical consciously slowing down and identifying my body’s natural pace, i wanted to create a business that was led by my heart.
i wanted to savor the juice out of my days while birthing this business in alignment with my inner sensitivities, with the natural rhythm of my body.
i wanted my business to be identified for my natural expertise as a coach, as a mentor but not at the expense of making my body work 24×7, striving, pushing, chasing clients.
so, i decided to undertake an experiment.
every time i would feel that old urge of my workaholic self to yet again strive, to yet again push, force, hustle myself into productivity, i would come back into my body, soften into it and connect back with my flow.
and then from that place of flow, of calm, of this unshakeable connection with my inherent enough-ness, i would listen to my heart, to the silent whispers of my body and take the next steps to create my feminine business.
today, it’s been over three wildly successful years of listening to my heart and my wise feminine body, of enjoying creating a sustainable and deeply profitable business that feels as nourishing as it did on the first day of its inception.
on this journey of supporting women with their feminine embodiment, i have had the privilege of coaching so many women who are already in business or are in the corporate world feeling the call to translate one (or more) of their skills into a profitable, a soul-nourishing business.
women who are passionate about sharing their gifts with the world, who want to take ownership of their time and resources and use it to create a life of their choice.
these are the women who have in some way already been on their journey of feminine embodiment.
they have started taking joy in the slowness of their lives, they are committed to savouring the deliciousness of their (once mundane) work routines.
they can’t anymore deny their body’s and soul’s needs for slowness, for gentleness, for rest and for relaxation. and now they’re desiring to create business systems that support this feminine way of their living.
they want to peel back the layers of their masculine conditioning and infuse their feminine gifts in the way they create & lead their businesses. They want to now lead in their work lives with their feminine, calling in success as effortlessly as they attract all the other desires of their heart.
if any of this is a reflection of your desires for your current or yet to be launched business or if you’re feeling called to this feminine way of living, leading a business and making money at it, read on to learn what really is a feminine business.
what is a feminine business
feminine business is a business philosophy that works for women who want to create and grow their business in alignment with their organic feminine, feeling, magnetic nature.
birthing a feminine business is the process of illuminating, nurturing and sharing our gifts with the world in a way that honors and nourishes us first- our body, soul, and deepest desires for success.
it involves defying the traditionally masculine ways of business by sharing our gifts of knowledge, creativity, passions, skills and wisdom in a way that feels true, sustainable and deeply nourishing to us.
it is the process of creating business systems that honour our sensitivities, our soft and slow cyclic nature, our needs for rest and relaxation.
this path is meant for women who are desiring to lead their business from an unwavering connection with their enough-ness, trusting that their intuitively chosen business models + methodologies will magnetise the right people to their work, trusting that they won’t have to abandon their soul, their essence to be successful in business.
