"Inner Safety" and Innovative Female Leadership: Midwifing a Post-Patriarchal World

I am honored to share this article on behalf of Bethany Webster. Her work has transformed a lot of women's lives. You can find her and her transformative work at: www.womboflight.com.

We're living in a transformational time in history. Patriarchal systems in our world are crumbling and more dysfunctional than ever.

World changes are pointing to the fact that we must rely on our own inner wisdom as our primary source of truth and no longer defer to outer authorities to define our realities. Age-old heriarchies based on "power over" are now clearly visible as increasingly toxic, obsolete and illegitimate. After centuries of imbalance under white male patriarchal values, (domination, greed, and exclusion) our planet and humanity itself is at a critical crossroads.

Now, more than ever, feminine values are needed in our world; values such as cooperation, collaboration, listening, process, empathy, emotional intelligence, intuition, and more. We need more men and women capable of expressing these values, embodying them and modeling them for others.

Because our world is in need of feminine values, we need women leaders who are capable of authentically embodying these feminine energies, while also confident in embodying healthy masculine energies as well. (Healthy masculine qualities such as directed action, firm boundaries, and sustained focus.)

In other words, we need women leaders who have sufficiently healed the patriarchal wounds in themselves so that they can lead large-scale change in their communities, neighborhoods, families and corporations.

In order for women leaders to lead the way to a post-patriarchal world, they must do the necessary "inner de-cluttering" from the internalized oppression that they've unconsiously inherited from their mothers. In other words, authentically and powerfully embodying the feminine values requires that we look deeply at the ways we have felt "in exile" from the feminine. Which of course, originated in our earliest experiences with our mothers.
