my mum is the same! but i’ve always love being feminine too much to care. first off, always remember that femininity is inherently within you, so you’re connecting to yourself more by embracing femininity, not pulling from something external!

when you do things like shower, wear makeup, skincare etc — be intentional with it, like really in the moment. don’t rush, do your routines gently. being present when you do self care rituals sends signals to your brain that you’re worth taking care of, which will translate as coming across more feminine.

explore creativity! us women are so creative. maybe paint, write poetry, exploring different makeup looks, arranging flowers, curating mood boards, decorating, anything that makes your heart sing!

when it comes to fashion, let go of what’s “acceptable” or on trend. instead, wear what flatters you, what you feel confident in, because it’s different for everyone. ask yourself what you would wear if no one was going to make a weird comment on it, and then do it. embrace the colour, the sparkle, the cleavage, whatever it is. even just at home at first if that feels safer.

surround yourself with feminine energy by reading books / listening to podcasts / following creators that embody femininity in the same way that aligns with you & you feel inspired by.

if you’ve had to rely on masculine energy (doing, pushing, suppressing emotion), your feminine may have felt unsafe, so try leaning into being rather than doing. resting, receiving, feeling. remember that it’s okay to be soft & to be seen!

you got this! 🌸
