Our work is built around four pillars of feminine leadership.

Feminine leadership is not based upon gender identity or gender expression. It’s based upon gender energy, which is a polarity of feminine and masculine energies that form a spectrum of identities and expressions. HEALING is fueled by feminine energy. In many Eastern cultures, healing energy is associated with YIN, which is also known to be feminine energy. So to develop your feminine leadership is to develop your abilities as a leader who heals others, or a healer who leads others, regardless of your chosen gender identity and expression. What does feminine leadership look like? How does one tangibly express it in everyday life? Feminine leadership is a full PIES expression and compels development and expression to occur on all levels of our Physical, Intellectual, Emotional and Spiritual (PIES) energy centers. Below are the areas of leadership development and expression that align with PIES energy centers. They are the pillars of feminine leadership that define the tangible expression of political healing, and include the PIES practices we want to enhance and develop.
