Episode 180: Finding a Balance of Feminine and Masculine Energy at Work

Regardless of gender, everyone brings a mixture of feminine or masculine energy. Some people lean on one more than the other. Masculine energy is described as "doing" and acting based on logic, knowledge, results, and reason. On the flip side, feminine energy is defined as "being," acting based on intuition and emotions. Words that often describe masculine energy include confrontation, aggression, and control, whereas words related to feminine energy include oversensitive and co-dependant. So, you can see how these energies aren't actually tied to a gender—a woman can be aggressive and a man can sensitive. Neither of these energies are wrong. In fact, there are several benefits to both. But it's about finding a balance at work.  In episode 180 of the Your Brilliant Difference Podcast, Finka shares a personal workplace story where, during a particular situation, there was a dominance in masculine energy and how leaning on her feminine energy as a Brilliant Difference created a meaningful change her workplace needed. Suddenly, people were more comfortable, had open communication, and shared their vulnerabilities, building trust and strong relationships.  Remember, both energies are good, but consider: which should you bring at work? Apply this to situations as you experience them.   Share Your Voice, Forge a Brilliant Workplace  I'm on a mission to build a brilliant workplace where everyone thrives and career dreams turn into reality, but I need your help!
