Women Are Not Powerless. They Are Unpracticed in Using Their Power.

Updated: 6 days ago

For generations, women have been taught to see themselves through the wrong lens.If a woman was tired, overwhelmed, anxious, or disconnected, she was told she was:

  • too emotional

  • too sensitive

  • too dramatic

  • too weak

  • too much

  • not enough


But none of that was ever true.


Women were not powerless. They were trained out of their power.

And what looks like weakness in a woman is almost always a survival pattern she learned young, long before she had language or choice.


Here is the truth no one said out loud:

A woman who cannot use her power is not powerless. She is unpracticed.


There is a massive difference.


The World Trained Women to Shrink, Not to Stand

Most women grow up learning that safety comes from being:

  • agreeable

  • quiet

  • useful

  • polite

  • understanding

  • forgiving

  • patient

  • accommodating


This was not “good behavior. ”This was survival conditioning.

A woman who stayed small was less likely to be punished. A woman who stayed quiet was less likely to be rejected.A woman who stayed agreeable was less likely to be abandoned.

Power was never the problem. The fear of using it was.


The Body Carries the Cost of Unused Power

When a woman cannot speak her truth, her body speaks for her.

Symptoms often begin where her voice ends.

I see it every day in my community. Women arrive with:

  • immobility

  • pain

  • anxiety

  • brain fog

  • shutdown

  • chronic stress

  • emotional exhaustion


Not because they are weak, but because their bodies have been forced to carry the emotional weight of decades of being unexpressed.

Unused power doesn’t disappear.


It turns into tension.It turns into symptoms.It turns into the quiet ache that says, “I cannot keep living like this.”


The awakening starts the moment a woman finally listens.


Power Returns When a Woman Stops Asking for Permission

Women think they need:

  • confidence

  • readiness

  • approval

  • clarity

  • a perfect plan


But the truth is simpler. A woman becomes powerful the moment she stops waiting to feel “allowed.”


When she stops asking:

  • Is this okay?

  • Will someone be upset?

  • Am I being selfish?

  • Do I deserve this?

  • Will I be judged?


This is the turning point. This is the awakening. This is the shift from powerless to practiced.


Strength does not come from a woman becoming someone new. It comes from her finally becoming herself.


Practice Is What Builds Power

Power is a muscle. Voice is a muscle.Self-worth is a muscle. Boundaries are a muscle. Agency is a muscle. Intuition is a muscle.


Women were never taught how to use these muscles.They were taught how to suppress them.


So when a woman begins practicing:

  • saying what she really means

  • choosing what she really wants

  • trusting what she already knows

  • leaving what breaks her

  • staying where she feels supported

  • listening to her body

  • refusing to abandon herself


She does not become powerful.

She becomes practiced.

And once a woman is practiced, she becomes unstoppable.


This Is the Era of Women Returning to Themselves


ree

Women everywhere are waking up.

Not in small ways. In seismic ways.

They are seeing through old programming.

They are remembering their worth.

They are reclaiming their intuition.

They are walking away from roles that were built on their silence.

They are healing at rates that defy everything they were taught to expect.

They are bringing other women with them.

Power is not new to women. Expression is.

This is the beginning of a global shift.

Women are not learning power.

They are remembering it.

And the more they practice, the more everything changes.
