Have you ever wondered what it really means to be female? Do you sometimes resent being female in a man’s world? Do you feel like something is missing in your experience and don’t know what it is?Today’s guest, Dr. Sharon Moloney, has spent a lifetime exploring and writing about exactly these questions — and the body of work she has created is pure healing. She says, “I’m a proud and passionate ambassador for the female state of being. It’s the one thing that lights me up just thinking about it, and for which I want to be remembered after I’m gone.”I am so deeply grateful and happy to have had Sharon on the podcast!Dr. Sharon Moloney is an author, speaker, women’s health therapist, and bodyworker who guides women to find, reclaim, and embody their sacred female power. Her mission is to restore the sacredness of the female body, which she believes has a crucial role to play in restoring male/female balance on the planet. Her work is informed by her PhD, which explored menstruation and birth as female spiritual experiences. Sharon believes that our female bodies are our most intimate connection with Nature, and her book Activate Your Female Power is a guided journey into that intimacy.In this conversation, we explored:- Sharon’s personal story of growing up as the fourth daughter of a mother who desperately wanted a son, and how she experienced her first period as an extraordinary spiritual awakening that led her on a path to uncover and teach about the sacredness and power of the female body.- The incredibleness of the female body and the menstrual cycle as an invitation to turn inward, connect with spirit, and unfold our truest and greatest potential.- The negative hypnotic trance of menstrual shame, and why it is a core patriarchal organizing principle that predisposes women to approach birth feeling fearful, disempowered, and vulnerable to intervention.- And so much more!---🌟 Join my softly rebellious on Substack: Subscribe here.🌟 Sign up here to receive a copy of my free workshop about The wild and poetic anatomy of the female body.🌟 Work with me 1:1 online or in person, find out more here.---💛 The Soft Rebellion Podcast is created and hosted by Flurina Dominique Thali.
