7 Signs You’re Performing Femininity (Not Embodying It)
1. 💄 You look put together, but your energy is chaotic.
It’s giving soft nails but a punishing schedule, or silk robes while you leave mean comments on TikTok.
2. 🧖🏽♀️ You only rest when you're exhausted
I get how hard it is to just try and build something in a man’s world 😩.
But if you’re burning out before you take a moment to rest, that’s not self-care; it’s just self-harm in disguise.
When you’re really in your feminine energy, you’ll honour rest as a requirement, not a reward.
3.🪞Your confidence wavers when you're not getting attention
Yes, the feminine actually desires to be desired, but be careful not to tie your self-worth to the validation of others.
If you only feel beautiful when builders wolf whistle as you walk by 👷🏼, or feel confident when your reel gets thousands of views
there will be a moment when silence hits… and you’ll walk back the person you have become, just to feel validated again.
4. 📚You consume everything about femininity… but implement nothing
You could name more books on femininity than I can.
In fact, you’ve even read my book “How to be authentically feminine in 21 days”. And you still didn’t practice the 3 steps to embody each archetype.
It doesn’t get more practical than a 21-day strategy babe! But when you are more theory than practice, you live in hypotheticals, while your reality lacks the evidence of all your consumption 😩
BTW, if this hits home. It’s okay. I can write like this, because I used to be like this!
If you’re ready to step out of performance mode and embody the real thing?
I have a full breakdown on ‘how to embody genuine femininity’ in the blog I posted today. Just make sure that if you read it… You APPLY IT ;).
