Feminism Reloaded 2.0

Like a famous friend of mine once said, “I have a dream…”. Yes, people, I also have a dream! 😍 I’m soooo longing for soooo many women to live out their true selves. Okay, Magdalena… but why, how, where … and WHAT FOR?

Let’s start with the ✨ WHY ✨. I started my business 5 years ago. As a Mindset Coach, I’ve been able to work with amazing women from multiple countries and continents. 🌏 I’ve observed that no matter where these women come from, they ALL struggle with VERY similar thought patterns that keep them from living a fulfilled life. 🙈 And it makes my heart jump EVERY single time I hear feedback from my clients of how their lives have been impacted and changed for the better. 🦋

I mean, after YEARS of feeling defeated in certain areas, they start to breathe in deeply and enjoy life again! As they begin to believe in themselves and recognize their own value, they feel empowered to speak up for themselves and to set healthy boundaries. This results in them having more time and energy for themselves AND others. They FINALLY stop feeling guilty for pursuing their dreams and start drawing finances and opportunities into their lives with much less effort than ever before. In simple words, they get to live a happy, fulfilled and powerful life in new freedom and confidence - and that’s amazing!!! 

Now, ✨ HOW ✨ does that happen? I want to quote Dr. Caroline Leaf, a great neuroscientist, who has reminded me a number of times that “our mind is the most powerful thing in the universe after God.” Yes, our MIND truly is THE foundational key to a happy and successful life. Yet, too often, we try to fine-tune and work on our BEHAVIOR instead of focusing on our thinking. We inevitably end up in complete frustration as our actions don’t correspond to what we set out to do. We have to understand that EVERY action and feeling roots in our thought life! Every single one! No exception. We think, we choose, we feel, we act, and we have our results accordingly. To be honest, most of our minds have become quite messy, because we don’t know how to manage them in a healthy way. The good news is that there are super practical and effective tools to renew our minds FOR our benefit.☀️🦋💯 In fact, that’s what I teach my clients in my coaching (and in the near future to the students and members of my Online Academy - I’m so excited!!! 🤩). 

✨ WHERE ✨ should women live out their true selves? Now, that’s easy. 😉 Wherever you are! When you change your thinking in an intentional, creative and positive way, there are no limits to what you can do! But what about oppressive and discriminatory structures? What if I lived in a country where there is no (or only expensive) access to education for me? Or what if I’m part of a religious community that doesn’t allow me to pursue my dreams? What if I have a family that demands lots of attention? 

That’s EXACTLY where I invite you to start changing your thinking. ✨ As long as we live in a mindset of lack or a victim mentality, these things won’t miraculously change for us. 🤷🏻‍♀️ But I’ve literally witnessed hundreds of times how the transformation of the inside (our minds), results in a transformation on the outside too! Even if our circumstances don’t always match up immediately to our inner process, the transformation still ROOTS in our thought life and this is where we have to start the change. So, if there IS structural inequality, it needs people who REALLY are set FREE in their minds and hearts in order to change these systems!

And nooooo, I’m not talking about developing a resentful attitude towards everything and everyone who does us wrong, demanding and enforcing structural change in aggressive ways. Yes, that might have been necessary in the past to finally make SOMETHING happen for us, indeed! 😮 Personally, I’m super thankful for feminists who have paved the way for me to live a life in such freedom - with access to excellent academic education, free choice of my career path, freedom of travel to many countries without a chaperon, the right to VOTE, the freedom to wear pants and more!

HOWEVER - yes, there always comes a however in my posts 😉 - I do absolutely NOT agree with everything feminists say, do, or endorse. In fact, I wanna see a new kind of feminism, a Feminism Reloaded 2.0. I want to see women who become aware of their own potential and worth, acknowledging their uniqueness as their personal superpower instead of their greatest hindrance. 💃🏻😍🦋

I’ve seen time and again that as women find their personal freedom, they stop FIGHTING for their rights. 👑 They come to a place of inner confidence and peace, understanding that their destiny cannot be taken away from them. ☀️Out of that restful state, POWERFUL things happen. They start to live out their true selves, their potential, their dreams, their calling. As they aren’t ruled by outside dogmas any longer, unjust systems and situations even start adapting to them! 😮🙏🏼❤️ No dogma can stop them - not a societal or beauty dogma, nor a church dogma, nor the dogmas of feminist movements. Because there is no such thing as ONE TRUE way of living your womanhood! It’s essential to find out who YOU are at your core and how YOU as an individual can express your uniqueness in this world in a way that is EMPOWERING both for yourself and for others. 💃🏻🚀

Yes, I want to see women live their true selves. ✨WHAT FOR✨? I’d like to conclude this post with the quote from an incredibly talented young woman I did an interview with a few months back for research purposes. In our vivid conversation she stated, “Once women really find out their worth, realize how beautiful they are and realize how amazing God has made them, we can take over the world.” Wow. I couldn’t have said it better. It’s perfectly put. Let it sink in.
