Embodying the Warrioress
I love teaching about the Warrioress. She is an archetype that brings women a sense of wildness, fearlessness and strength. This week I am preparing for my Women’s Retreat on the Warrioress so I have been thinking about how she helps women embody their natural strengths, gifts and talents.
