18. Healing The Worthiness Wound, Reclaiming Our Bodies, Voices & Intuition with Monica Rodgers

Bringing an infectious warmth and playful levity wherever she goes, Monica Rodgers is a tireless advocate for the full actualization of women, inspiring women everywhere that saying “YES to the MESS” is the missing link to self-love and personal liberation and awakening. Through The Revelation Project Podcast and group coaching programs, Monica guides women through their inner (r)evolution, from trance to transcendence, revealing the toxic myths of social conditioning and self-doubt in order to illuminate the magic and magnificence of our imperfect selves.

She believes that women can take action towards realizing our true potential only when we stop proving and striving to be who everyone wants us to be. When we reveal the truth of who we are, we return to our “original design” and with the practice of self-love and compassion, we become aligned, opening the portal into our divine purpose where true prosperity dwells. There has never been a more important time for women to reveal the truth of who we are as a catalyst for positive change in the world as the Divine Feminine returns in the Sophia Century.

In this episode, Michaela Carlin and Monica Rodgers discuss …

• How women have been enculturated to deny their divine feminine energy
• The messages women receive to stay small and suppress their emotions
• The cumulative impact of these messages as a “trance of unworthiness”
• How women are taught to perform their gender rather than embody true feminine power
• Monica's own awakening to her divine femininity
• How a woman’s intuition is connected to her biological design
• The journey “home” to feminine power as a journey back into the body
• “Saying YES to the MESS” and learning to feel and articulate deep emotions
• How circles of sisterhood have been disrupted and need to be reclaimed
• Erotic power in relation to the hermetic principle, “the law of correspondence”
• How true revelation happens outside of the comfort zone
• How Monica helps women return to and awaken through their bodies
• The sexiness of a man who is in touch with both the masculine and feminine
• The invisible work of women
• The difference between being a mother and embodying the mother archetype
• The resentment the wounded maiden feels as she consciously or unconsciously feels unable to reach her full potential
• How women are conditioned to hold onto our youth at any cost
• Tending to the voices of the inner child and wounded maiden
• Monica’s “triple wound” and how she hit bottom
• Unresolved trauma showing up in parenting
• Hearing the voice of the inner critic and understanding it as self abuse
• The misperception that by staying small women are staying safe
