Episode Description
In the final episode of this first series of The Rise of the Feminine we reflect on the topics discussed with guests, revisit highlights of the show, where more than 40 different experts provided wisdom and important insights informing our present and future. The main topic for the episode is the role of elders, primarily women elders. We will look at the significance of the older, wise women and the archetype of the grandmother and the contribution they have been making to the rise of the feminine. As we move away from patriarchy, the dominant culture of the last few thousand years, this show is interested in how we view women leaders who are older, and explore why we have such a problem with older women in society. With contributions from Gary Malkin, Barbara Marx Hubbard, Philippa Blackham and Janice Dolley.
The Rise of the Feminine
Archives Available on VoiceAmerica Variety Channel
There are huge shifts happening globally that not only involve the rise of women but also the rise of feminine values in men and, in women, which are re-shaping our collective future.
We discover more and more women coming into their own, finding their unique purpose. In this surge for equality, some men may fear they will be displaced, but in reality, we’ll see how this is a movement that is more about a shared vision for a re-balancing of the planet. It’s not about women taking over but women standing alongside men in their rightful place.
The question for many male leaders is how to integrate this new female power in organizations and fully understand that the shifts happening in their businesses, and politics are an embracing of new feminine values that will not only help them to adapt but also to thrive. This is a space where we can explore and bring together the conversations about what is emerging around the world as we witness shifts in power.
