8. How Perfectionism Holds Women Back And What To Do About It

Do you struggle with measuring up? Do you beat yourself up when you make a mistake? Do you feel anxious and frustrated when outcomes are out of your control? If so, you’re not alone. These are common challenges for many high-achieving women, and often perfectionism is the root cause. Letting go of perfectionism isn’t about selling ourselves short. We can still have high expectations for ourselves and set big goals. But we can also love ourselves for who we are- flaws and all.

7. An Interview With Patriarchy Cult Survivor Ashely Easter

Ashley Easter grew up in a fundamentalist Christian community that, by all definitions, was a cult.

Today Ashley is a cult survivor turned Intuition Coach who helps people escape self-doubt and harness the science and practice of intuition so they can take control of their destiny. She is the founder of Courage 365, a non-profit organization for abuse survivors (especially those abused in faith contexts). She is passionate about creating a safer more just world.

In a culture where women were considered inferior to men, treated as property, and excluded from theological education, Jesus defied cultural norms, elevating and advocating for women. Jesus was a man way ahead of his time. He may have been the very first feminist.
