Empowerment and Conscious Feminine Leadership
%20(1).png)
WHY THIS IS IMPORTANT?
To survive in a world that pushes us to fit in boxes, we have learned to repress the parts of ourselves associated with the feminine, which typically have negative connotations or are not useful in a productive system (emotions and their expression, care, rest, cyclical nature...).
We adapt to a rhythm and nature that is not our own: always in action, always available, demanding, perfectionism, control. This keep us unbalance and is not coherent with the transfromation we try to create.
Stress, anxiety, and fatigue are beginning to be normalized as part of our lives and affecting our personal life, professional performance and social impact.
The overload that comes from work responsibilities + activism + personal life. We can not give if we don´t receive as well.
There are high levels of burnout in justice and social transformation organizations. We need pause, rest, care and emotional management.
These programs are important because they are focused on the HOW and not only on what we do. All the injustice and violence caused by the system, cannot be transformed in the same way the system works, which is what most organizations and movements try. We need to INTEGRATE another way: the FEMININE WAY.
OBJETIVES AND BENEFITS
My programs and experiences focused on Empowerment and Conscious Feminine Leadership focuse to develop a physical, mental, emotional, energetic, and collective well-being programs or experiences based on, and adapted, to the needs and interests of the women leaders within the organization, to improve mental and emotional health, self-care, and quality of life, both inside and outside the workplace, in a comprehensive and holistic way that can contribute to the collective change and transformation they lead .

MY METHODOLOGY
TRAUMA-INFORMED PERSPECTIVE
-
Safe spaces - only proposals and invitations.
-
Learning to validate and listen to our needs.
-
No judgment, expectations, or advice.
-
Learning to regulate and respect our own limits, exploring our rhythms and intensity.
FLEXIBLE & ADAPTABLE
-
Combination of different tools adapted to the needs.
-
Examples: meditation, visualization, somatic movement, breath work, dance, journaling, yin yoga and more.
IN COMMUNITY
-
We need the support of the community. We are social beings and need from each other to live.
-
Asking and receiving help and support is not a weakness, but a strength.
-
Together it is easier to remember, validate ourselves, and heal.
FEMININE PERSPECTIVE
-
Remembering our cyclical nature, intuition, creativity, playfulness and sovereignty of our bodies.
-
Re-signifying what is associated with the feminine as a form of activism, revolution, empowerment, healing and transformation.
EXPERIENTIAL APPROACH
-
Everyone has inner wisdom and knowlegde.
-
I don´t have the answers or the “Truth”. I facilitate tools and practices to remember our own truth.
-
We can validate what we can experience and observe for ourselves.
HOLISTIC AND INTEGRAL
-
We are body, mind, emotions, and energy, and these are not separate. We just separate them in order to survive.
-
This is a proposal to integrate all these parts of ourselves and live from a place of wholeness.
MODALITIES
Every organization, team and movement is different. That´s why I create proposals tailored to the needs, interests and resources of each organization. I´m based in Madrid (Spain) & Nairobi (Kenya) for in person options, available online worldwide, and open to travel internationally for in-person projects, workshops and collaborations.
These are some examples of what it could be interesting to your organization:
-
12- or 16-week program of group or individual sessions/workshops, held virtually or in person (if possible). Groups of 10 to 15 people.
-
Hybrid format: virtual sessions + 1 in-person retreat
-
In-person retreats on specific topics
-
Independent workshops with different themes, held virtually or in-person.
-
One-day event/retreat
I would really love to hear form you and know more about your project and what could serve to your team and purpose.
