Whether you signed up for it or not, you’re a rebel...a rebel with a cause. We are in a time of change. An old system is dying, and a new system is being born. The feminine is rising. You are the change-maker.
We’re leaving an age ruled by an inflated masculine principle, The Patriarchy. A world steered, designed, and defined by men. It has been an age of knowledge. But it has also been an age of secrecy and bureaucracy. A paradigm of power-over.
What are we changing to? A world steered, designed, and defined by women AND men. We are entering an age of intuition. As women, we are being called to higher expressions of ourselves to aid this transition. Your personal contribution, dear rebel, is what is creating this shift.
Trust me, I know at times it feels awkward. As a woman living through this time of change, what we feel on the inside is often very different from what we see on the outside. What is calling us, what we are inspired to bring into this world, is not what we’ve seen before. You’re not crazy. You’re not wrong. What you seek is exactly what the world is asking for.
Whether you love the idea of being a rebel or prefer to do your thing with a low profile- as a teacher, mother, grandmother, artist, doctor, businesswoman, entrepreneur - your work is bringing forth the new earth.
How? Any woman who shows up authentically in her work and relationships will bring ideas that run counter to the status quo (the masculine ways of working and relating) in her industry, company, and community.

This isn’t about men versus women. This is about restoring balance for all people and for our home, the earth. It’s about shifting from power-over to power-with.
Power-Over leads to dominance, greed, oppression, desperation, and manipulation.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Power-With is all about consent, integrity, collaboration, and respect.
If you ever start to doubt yourself, or hold back, because the ideas in your mind and heart are so different from how things stand, remember that difference is exactly what it is meant to be. You are here to bridge the gap, dear rebel.
This work is exciting and challenging; it’s thrilling and daunting all at once.
You don’t have do all of it, but you are asked to do the piece of the work that has been given to you.
Don’t panic. This isn’t about doing more. Don’t worry if you’re not sure what that work is. It’s nothing more than what you’re already doing because it’s not about what you do, it’s about how you do it. How you live moment to moment.
What is the imperfect, mucky situation you’re in right now? What’s calling you to speak, act, reinvent, heal? For some, this work may already be loud and clear. For others, it’s only a whisper, bubbling up in your heart and mind.
All you need to do is listen to the whisper. Listen to the thing that most wants to be expressed through you. Give it a voice. When you do, you will have done your part, dear rebel. You will have done it beautifully.
Though it may feel like it at times, you aren’t in this alone. There is a world full of women just like you, listening to her whisper, giving voice to the new earth. She has survived droughts and storms and stands now, ready to claim a new calm. If you look, you will see her all around you. Women everywhere, working quietly and loudly, each in her own way, doing her work.
Your gifts are needed. Your work is sacred. Your path is blessed.
Thank you for doing your part. Deep respect, dear rebel.
With so much love,
Christina
