The Feminine Return – My Story

I wasn’t always this version of myself.

In my early twenties, I was a college girl from Brooklyn, New York and learned that I was the strong one. The polished one. The one who always got it done.

Church became a part of my rhythm too. One Sunday, while half-distracted by my stilettos and fly outfit, the pastor’s wife broke through my perfection with one sentence:

“We as women need to know when to just shut up.”

I froze.
Then I was mad as...
Then I listened.

Not because it was offensive—but because it was true.

It hit me in the center of my over functioning, always-performing self. That moment cracked something open. I began to question the weight I carried, the masculine energy I wore like armor, and the deep exhaustion I had normalized for far too long.

What followed wasn’t pretty. It was a slow, psychologically painful process of unlearning

of confronting old narratives, failed identities, and fears I didn’t even know I had. For a long time, I didn’t know if it was worth it. I didn’t know who I was becoming.

Until one day—decades later—I looked up and realized:
I love being a woman.

Not just the image of it.
The essence of it.

I said it aloud with the boldness of Maya Angelou:
“I am a phenomenal woman.”

Suddenly, I saw my “strength” for what it really was: survival mode. I began peeling off the armor, piece by piece.

I let go of the belief that femininity was weakness and started celebrating the vibrant duality that lived inside me—softness and power, flow and focus.

This wasn’t about a glow-up.
It was a return—to myself, to the version of me that didn’t just perform, but embodied. A woman who could lead with grace, love deeply, speak with softness, and walk in a room without shrinking or shouting.

And now? I help other women do the same.

Because this isn’t just about beauty or branding or being “soft.”
It’s about coming home to the woman you were before the world told you who to be.
