Did you know that you were formed in your mother’s womb before she was even born?

While your grandmother was pregnant with your mother, her baby was already ‘with child’ as well (your mom had all the reproductive cells she would use later in life).

When I share that we inherit everything from our ancestors in our bodies, I mean it. Every emotion, thought, food, and hormonal shift your grandmother experienced in pregnancy has an imprint on your physical body, altering your DNA’s gene expression.

To go further, everything her grandmother experienced affected her and her reproductive cells (that later became you and your mother). I could go on but I’ll stop here for clarity’s sake.

You can see now how both intergenerational gifts/strengths and curses/diseases are passed down to us and can literally become integral parts of who we are.

Your patterns are at least 2 generations old (for better or for worst). So if you’re a well nourished woman who knows your hormonal cycle, accepts support from others, and has healthy relationships with men, great. Chances are, your grandmother experienced that same stability and self awareness.

If you find yourself a disconnected woman who hustles to the point of illness, distrustful of men and adopting a masculine armor, that may be a familial pattern to transmute and replace with something new.

Now that you know, you have the sovereignty to decide: Do I want to continue these behaviors? Are they helpful for me to continue? Can I show gratitude for how this has ‘served’ me and my family in the past and lead my lineage down a new path?

Disrupting old cycles and establishing new legacies is the exact work we do in Returning to the Feminine, my 6 month program for feminine execs who are ready to lay down the boss babe armor and restore their unique feminine blueprint. We have a spot waiting just for you.
