Summary
As conscious beings, our holds hold power. Let's change our language from feminine meaning soft and weak, and masculine being strong and assertive and instead use the Doshas to describe qualities to empower both genders.
-How the genderification of characteristics keeps woman playing small and men afraid to be vulnerable
-Why females are not weak but actually the most powerful life-force with warrior-like strength, which would be considered "masculine"
-Durga, the most powerful deity who slays demons, is a female
-Why we should shift the terminology to Vata, Pitta, Kapha rather than masculine and feminine to let genders be as they wish without judgement and labels

| 0:00.0 | Namaste, it's Sahara Rose and welcome back to the highest self podcast, a place where |
| 0:17.1 | we discuss what makes you your soul's highest involvement. |
| 0:21.0 | I was just listening to a video of a Vedic scholar and he was saying that inherently all men |
| 0:30.7 | are warriors and all women are surfers. |
| 0:34.6 | And I just took a second and I was like, wait, what did you just say? |
| 0:41.1 | And he went on to explain that men have a masculine nature and that makes them more warriors |
| 0:46.7 | and if shit hits the fan, the man's going to be the one to go out there and get the burglars |
| 0:51.9 | or fix the light or whatever the problem is. |
| 0:54.7 | And that he believes women have this more inherently quote unquote feminine nature, which |
| 0:59.2 | makes them want to serve the man and be adored and to, you know, they feel good when they're |

| 1:23.3 | And I felt like I needed to embrace my divine feminine nature. |
| 1:28.3 | So I would shy away from things that would make me quote unquote masculine like being |
| 1:35.2 | too aggressive or being a career woman or, you know, not having time for your family |
| 1:41.0 | God forbid because family is first and family is the most important thing and your |
| 1:44.9 | husband's not going to be happy with you and you need to look good all the time. |
| 1:47.8 | And these were also thoughts that were planted in my mind from my family, which is, you |
