So I love that you use the word brainwashing because I use that phrase and that context a lot to explain to women like what's happening in us. Yeah. And if you take away the metaphor of powerful, sovereign women in religious stories, in talking about folklore around the fire, and you replace it with only a virgin, pious mother and a whore, then

Then we grow up, if we live in a, you know, a predominantly Christian society, even if we aren't grown up Christian, these archetypes, these metaphors are really baked in to our culture. Then we only have two archetypes to see ourselves in. And what can happen is that naturally, I believe as women grow, we have the magic in us.

You know, we were all super wild when we were little girls, but we've been taught to be afraid of that wildness of being ourselves, of that authenticity, because we've been living in a culture. And I do believe that it's changing where we were going to be made fun of for being different and

where we would maybe be shamed for being different, where we wouldn't be able to fit into the culture, to fit into school, to fit into a traditional job. And that's the best case scenario. And that comes with a lot of privilege. And a lot of people in different societies around the world and also in this country, if they are different, their lives are at stake and their thriving is at stake.

And so there's really a range of internalized conditioning, externalized conditioning, and And, but I really see it all going back to this brainwashing and this culturalization about what it means to be a woman and what's considered appropriate.

Well, when I go back and I look at history before this happened, it's been really fun for me to study what they believe was happening inside of priestess temples, inside of matriarchal societies, where women were leaders. I'm like, tell me all the things.

Where they were leaders, where they were the healers, where they were who were coming together in council and making really massive decisions for huge areas of land, both large and small communities. And When we go and look at that in history, we can remember, oh, I'm capable of that.

Because since so much of that history has been deliberately erased from what we know and mostly rewritten to be in the narrative that men have been in charge the whole time, we don't know what's possible for us. So that's why I think it's so important for women to learn about and understand about matriarchal communities and
