Becoming Fierce: Stephanie James

The 'Satisfied Woman' challenges the conventional wisdom that has long pushed women to model themselves after male-defined notions of success. For centuries, the female struggle for equality has meant fighting for the same opportunities as men to make their own choices, build independent lives, craft powerful careers, and exercise their agency. But has this been the wrong approach? Could striving to be equal to men actually be holding women back from realizing their fullest potential? Focusing too narrowly on integrating into masculine systems and hierarchies. women have forged paths laid out by men, emulating what men identify as desirable. These preconceived notions of what society has deemed standard have forced the modern woman to overlook the extraordinary power of developing and expressing her innate femininity. Could this be why many women remain unsatisfied and overwhelmed?

You are here to reunite mind, body, and spirit by creating, experienc- ing, and expressing. This will always engage a beginning, middle, and end. It will often encompass a challenge that unfolds a deeper lesson. Your jour- ney to planet Earth was intended for experiential engagement. This would require both, the process of involution and that of evolution. There are parts on the inside and outside of every human being that are at war with the Self. It is the journey of victim, villain, and hero . . . the unknown, the question, the answer . . . living, being, and knowing. The greatest gift of the soul is to release fully, so that it can be all that experience offers in knowing its true expansiveness. The journey involves predetermined obstacles within the self and in the outside world. It is through being at war, in love, and of peace, the soul journey unfolds. The experience and integration of love, poured on every circumstance, brings the peace being sought. Love would have you discover that everything is loving and good, even those things that seem ugly, wrong, or bad. Love would show you the steps along the path. Love would never leave you or stop being your guide. But it requires you to be present and loving to the Self, so that you see, and can be seen, through the eyes of Love rather than distorted perceptions. This is the place that holds all illusion, reality, and truth.
