Hey Friends,

Today's manifesto is your guide to reclaiming your feminine energy. If you’re anything like me, you’ve felt the pull between getting things done and deeply craving more peace and flow in your life. Especially as women who run businesses or wear multiple hats, it can feel like we’re always in 'do mode,' constantly pushing and striving. But deep down, there’s a part of us that knows we thrive when we slow down, tap into our desires, and live in alignment with the feminine essence that’s already inside us.

Reconnecting with your feminine energy is not about abandoning your goals. Instead, it’s about returning to the core of who you are: a woman who moves from peace, pleasure, and desires. In this post, I’ll share the five biggest questions I’ve come across in my own journey of returning to my feminine. Each of us will have our own unique challenges based on what we desire and what we’ve experienced, but I’ll give you tips and tools to navigate this process with ease and flow.

1. What does it mean to return to my feminine energy?

To return to your feminine energy is to re-root yourself in flow, receptivity, and creativity. It’s about shifting from constantly 'doing' to allowing yourself to simply 'be.' Instead of running on the masculine energy of action and productivity, you move with ease, follow your desires, and make decisions that feel aligned.

From My Experience: I used to spend my days in a constant cycle of to-dos. The pressure to perform and be productive was high. Over time, I realized this wasn’t working for me. I was drained, uninspired, and far from the peaceful, joyful life I knew I wanted. It wasn’t until I started to slow down, reconnect with my body, and follow my desires that I began to feel a deep sense of peace and fulfillment.

Now, I cherish my mornings sitting on my balcony with a cup of mushroom-based coffee, overlooking the pond by my home. These moments remind me that my feminine energy is about ease, pleasure, and being present.

Tip: Take a moment to ask yourself where you are overextending. Are you constantly doing without giving yourself permission to simply be? Pay attention to how you feel in those moments—are you moving from pressure or from desire?

Journal Prompt:

  • Where in your life do you feel most disconnected from your feminine energy?

  • What practices could help you slow down and reconnect with yourself?

Affirmation:
"I am worthy of slowing down. I trust my desires as true guidance for creating peace and pleasure in my life."

2. How do I know I’m disconnected from my feminine energy?

Signs of disconnection often show up as burnout, frustration, and anxiety. If you’re always feeling overwhelmed, overworking yourself, and constantly feeling like you’re not doing enough, this is a sure sign that you’re disconnected from your feminine energy. When we prioritize productivity over pleasure or suppress our desires, we lose the natural flow that brings joy and ease into our lives.

From My Experience: For years, I pushed myself to work late into the night on my business, even after a full day at my 9-to-5. I’d feel guilty if I wasn’t hustling. But this constant need to push was draining me. I realized that when I started working on my business in the mornings—during my most peaceful and creative time—I felt more aligned, less stressed, and more productive. It wasn’t about doing more but doing what felt good.

Tip: Start by paying attention to how your body and mind feel throughout the day. When do you feel most drained? When do you feel most alive? Use that awareness to create small shifts in your schedule that prioritize your desires and well-being.

Journal Prompt:

  • What are the signs your body gives you when you’re disconnected from your feminine energy?

  • How could you bring more ease and rest into your daily routine?

Affirmation:
"I listen to my body’s wisdom and honor its need for rest and rejuvenation."

3. What are practical ways I can return to my feminine energy?

Returning to your feminine energy doesn’t have to be a huge, overwhelming shift. It’s often in the small, intentional practices that we begin to feel more connected to ourselves. Whether it’s setting aside time for journaling, taking a quiet walk, or even just enjoying your morning coffee without rushing, it’s the moments of presence that bring you back to your feminine essence.

From My Experience: I found that returning to my feminine energy wasn’t about adding more to my plate—it was about simplifying and finding joy in the small things. I started being more intentional with how I removed my makeup at night, slowing down to enjoy the warmth of a cup of tea, and giving myself permission to be present. It’s these small rituals that make me feel grounded and connected to my desires.

Tip: Choose one or two daily practices that bring you joy and peace. This could be as simple as stretching in the morning or taking five minutes to journal about your desires and emotions. Don’t overcomplicate it—your feminine energy thrives on ease, not effort.

Journal Prompt:

  • What small rituals could you incorporate into your daily life to reconnect with your feminine energy?

  • How can you create more moments of joy and flow throughout your day?

Affirmation:
"I create space for pleasure and flow in my daily life. My feminine energy is powerful and always available to me."

4. How do my past experiences impact my ability to reconnect with my feminine energy?

The stories we’ve lived and the beliefs we’ve internalized shape the way we approach rest, relaxation, and following our desires. For many of us, there’s a deep-seated belief that productivity equals worth, or that slowing down is a sign of weakness or failure. These beliefs are often barriers to truly embracing our feminine energy.

From My Experience: I used to believe that my worth was tied to how much I accomplished each day. I had to consciously unlearn that mindset and give myself permission to rest. For me, redefining success was a huge part of this. Success is no longer about how much I can do in a day; it’s about how aligned I feel with my desires, how peaceful my days are, and how much pleasure I allow myself to experience.

Tip: Take some time to reflect on the beliefs you’ve inherited about productivity and rest. Ask yourself, whose expectations am I living by? What would happen if I allowed myself to trust my desires more and do less?

Journal Prompt:

  • What beliefs about success and productivity are holding you back from embracing your feminine energy?

  • How can you start to shift those beliefs to support a life of peace and pleasure?

Affirmation:
"I am worthy and valuable even when I rest. I trust that following my desires leads to my success."

5. How can I trust my desires to guide me in life and business?

Trusting your desires is a powerful way to move through life with flow. Your desires are not random—they’re the whispers of your soul guiding you toward what’s truly aligned for you. But it can feel scary to let go of control, especially when the world around us is constantly pushing us to do more, achieve more, and be more.

From My Experience: When I created The Pleasure and Peace Portal, it wasn’t from a place of force or pressure. It came from a deep desire to help women reconnect with their feminine energy and create lives rooted in peace and pleasure. I trusted that if I moved from desire, everything else would fall into place. And it has. When we follow what feels good, we’re led exactly where we need to be.

Tip: The next time you feel overwhelmed by the need to control or force something to happen, pause and ask yourself, 'What do I truly desire right now?' Then trust yourself enough to move in that direction, even if it feels scary or uncertain.

Journal Prompt:

  • Where in your life are you holding on to control instead of trusting your desires?

  • What would it look like to let go and move from a place of flow and ease?

Affirmation:
"I trust my desires to guide me. I take aligned, inspired action and allow myself to flow with ease."


Your feminine energy is always within you, waiting to be accessed. By reconnecting with your desires, creating space for peace and pleasure, and trusting that alignment—not force—leads to success, you can create a life and business that feels authentic and fulfilling. Each woman’s journey will look different based on her experiences and what she desires, but the beauty of returning to your feminine energy is that it’s a deeply personal and intuitive process.

You deserve a life where your desires guide you, where your days are filled with peace and pleasure, and where you trust yourself fully.

Live pleasurably.
