At 62, I'm publishing my first book challenging society's narrative about women after 50. "Empress Rising" rejects the notion that we should fade into invisibility and instead embraces our power as women who rule our own lives with wisdom earned through experience.• Written because women over 50 are often told to slow down, step aside, and become invisible• Inspired by seeing brilliance, wisdom, and power in women in their 50s-80s• Developed the "Empress" concept as an alternative to the limiting "crone" archetype• The Empress rules in her own right, sits on her throne because she's earned it• Share vulnerable personal stories including breast cancer, toxic relationships, and becoming a yoga teacher at 55• Every woman has stories of courage, resilience, and reinvention that deserve celebration• Writing this book at 61 because I finally have the clarity and courage to speak my truth• Message that women are not "old" or "too late" regardless of age• Your empress years aren't coming—they're here now"An Empress is a woman who rules in her own right. She sits on her throne not because someone gave her permission, but because she's earned her place there through every triumph and challenge she's faced."Rose's book "Empress Rising: Own Your Energy, Trust Your Wisdom, and Rewrite the Rules of Aging" launches October 16thJoin the waitlist for "Empress Rising" on my website at rosewippich.com.

Text usIn this episode of Anthology of Horror, we dig deep into the haunted history of Colorado—a land as drenched in blood as it is crowned in beauty. From the sacred landscapes of the Ute, Cheyenne, and Arapaho, to the atrocities of Sand Creek and the retaliatory wars that followed, the story of Colorado is layered with tragedy and restless spirits. We move through the outlaw boomtowns of Leadville and Cripple Creek, where gambling debts were paid in blood and brothels left their shadows, down into the mines where Tommyknockers and curses echoed beneath the rock.The 20th century brought new horrors: labor wars that left children and families dead at Ludlow, hospitals and prisons that turned suffering into industry, and the Stanley Hotel where ghosts still waltz in empty ballrooms. From haunted highways to skinwalker stories in the San Luis Valley, to the infernal reputation of Riverdale Road, Colorado emerges not just as a state, but as a monument of memory and death—where every ridge and gulch carries stories the living can't forget and the dead won't release.This episode was produced by Mickie Eberz, with scoring and the closing song “Ghost Town” by Empress.Support the showDemented Darkness https://open.spotify.com/show/2ausD083OiTmVycCKpapQ8Dark Side of the Nerd https://open.spotify.com/show/6cwN3N3iifSVbddNRsXRTuFoxhound43 https://rumble.com/user/Foxhound43

As a nation of foodies, we watch the food and beverage (F&B) scene closely to see who comes and goes. Synopsis: Join Natasha Ann Zachariah at The Usual Place every Thursday as she unpacks the latest current affairs with guests. In recent months, the headlines have been dominated by farewells as home-grown restaurants, bakeries, bars and even dining chains have called it a day. This week’s casualty: Prive Group, which operated cafes and the Empress restaurant at the Asian Civilisations Museum. Its restaurants closed on Aug 31. It has been a difficult year for the industry, which has seen other big names such as Eggslut and Burger & Lobster exit, modern European restaurants Imbue and one-Michelin-starred Poise shutter, and popular chains like Haidilao close outlets. Is it just about rent hikes, and could it be that we, as diners, are part of the problem - always chasing the next hot concept? In this episode of The Usual Place, I spoke with two veterans who are in the F&B scene in different ways: Mr Bjorn Shen, a consultant and chef-owner of Artichoke and Small’s in New Bahru with “22 years of cooking” STFood Online editor Eunice Quek, who has been reporting on the industry for about 15 years Highlights (click/tap above): 6:08 Bjorn explains why F&B owners have no choice at times but to pay higher rents 9:10 Are landlords the problem or are manpower costs a bigger issue? 12:53 “It’s always about chasing something new,” says Eunice on food trends; Crazy about Chinese and Korean cuisine now? 17:45 Singaporeans are not as adventurous as we think we are, says Bjorn about our foodie nation status 27:49 Should the Government step in with measures to help F&B business owners? 36:50 Singapore vs other countries: Bjorn breaks down what works and what doesn’t Host: Natasha Ann Zachariah (natashaz@sph.com.sg) Read Natasha’s articles: https://str.sg/iSXm Follow Natasha on her IG account and DM her your thoughts on this topic: https://www.instagram.com/theusualplacepodcast Follow Natasha on LinkedIn: https://str.sg/v6DN Follow STFood Online on IG: https://www.instagram.com/straitstimesfood Filmed by: Studio+65 Edited by: Eden Soh, Teo Tong Kai & Natasha Liew Executive producers: Danson Cheong, Elizabeth Khor & Ernest Luis Follow The Usual Place Podcast and get notified for new episode drops every Thursday: Channel: https://str.sg/5nfm Apple Podcasts: https://str.sg/9ijX Spotify: https://str.sg/cd2P YouTube: https://str.sg/theusualplacepodcast Feedback to: podcast@sph.com.sg SPH Awedio app: https://www.awedio.sg --- Follow more ST podcast channels: All-in-one ST Podcasts channel: https://str.sg/wvz7 Get more updates: http://str.sg/stpodcasts The Usual Place Podcast YouTube: https://str.sg/4Vwsa --- Get The Straits Times app, which has a dedicated podcast player section: The App Store: https://str.sg/icyB Google Play: https://str.sg/icyX -- #tup #tuptrSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

What if everything you've been told about feminine power is wrong?In a world that tells women to "be like men" to succeed, attorney-turned-feminine wisdom teacher Julie Dean Richards reveals why embracing your cyclical, intuitive, and receptive nature is actually your greatest superpower.Discover why the divine feminine has been deliberately suppressed, how sacred rage can transform your life, and why your personal "heroine's journey" looks nothing like the masculine hero's path you've been conditioned to follow.If you're a high-achieving woman feeling burned out, disconnected from your body, or constantly competing instead of collaborating, this episode will fundamentally shift how you view feminine power. Julie shares practical tools for embodiment, the hidden meanings behind 60+ sacred feminine symbols, and how to work WITH your natural cycles instead of against them.This isn't about adding more self-care to your to-do list—it's about remembering who you really are.Key Takeaways Your worth isn't tied to your productivity - The feminine thrives in being, not just doing. Sacred rage is medicine - Anger, when properly channeled, becomes transformative healing energyCompetition is programming - The feminine naturally collaborates, like trees sharing resources through root systemsJulie Dean Richards is an intuitive astrologer, herbalist, doula, and founder of Feminine Alchemist School. After working as a research consultant then practicing as an attorney, Julie discovered her true calling in helping women reclaim their sacred feminine power.

True power begins when you stop fighting battles and start living like an Emperor or Empress. In this episode William reveals the essential shift from the struggle-driven Hero's Journey into the Emperor or Empress Journey, a path of leverage, intentionality, and true freedom. Using powerful metaphors of maps versus reality and projector versus screen, he shows how success is not created by more sacrifice but by remapping the mind to project abundance and energy into every area of life, creating a life of freedom, prosperity, and legacy.Chapters(00:00) Introduction(02:51) Escaping Loops of Survival(04:26) Map vs Reality Metaphor(07:02) How Programming Shapes Your Outcomes(08:14) The Projection Principle of the Mind(10:12) Transition Into the Emperor/Empress Journey(13:27) Preparing for the Next Stage: The MagicianTake the Loop Quiz: https://loop.upgrd.com/Learn more at https://upgrd.comFollow us on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/theupgrd
For thousands of years, Emperors of China had harems of dozens or even hundreds of wives. Emperors had the right to select concubines from among the teenage daughters of the nobility or the peasantry. During the Ming dynasty 5,000 beautiful woman were brought from around the country and lined up in front of the palace. They were narrowed down to just a handful who were admitted into the palace and had a chance of spending a night with the emperor. Inside the forbidden city, imperial wives had an intricate system of hierarchy. At the top was the Empress. She was usually chosen for her nobility and political connections. When the emperor died, she could claim the title Empress Dowager, and continue her influence through her son. Below her were consorts, then concubines and maids. The emperor alone had access to all of them, and they were closely guarded by eunuchs. If the Emperor favored a particular concubine for her beauty, brains, or for baring him a son, he had the right to promote her, even to the rank of Empress. Today lets met 7 imperial concubines who, through allure, sex appeal, child-birth, and or ruthlessness, managed to climb their way to power in Imperial China.

You know the Kladstrups. Frankly, anyone interested in wine, whether through in the trade or as a consumer, should/must read their first book on wine: Wine and War. Since they have published 3 more books and just releasing the latest: Eugenie; The Last Empress of France. I was honored to get an advanced copy of the book and we had a chance to sit and laugh, recall history and talk wine. Petie and Don Kladstrup have a peculiar knack for stumbling upon history's best-kept secrets, usually while chasing a good glass of wine or a mysterious letter in a Paris archive. In this episode of Wine Talks, you'll follow the Kladstrups as they unearth the remarkable story of Empress Eugenie—the last French Empress, a force of nature whose life is hidden in the shadows of her more famous male counterparts. Forget what you thought you knew about French wine and revolution; you'll come away not only with a fresh perspective on the grand cru vineyards of Bordeaux and the Champagne houses' enterprising widows, but with intimate knowledge of how Eugenie's untold story entwines itself with the very essence of France. Through the Kladstrups' lively banter, listeners will travel from the opulent halls of the Second Empire to the chaotic streets of Paris under siege, learn why an empress was once dismissed as a mere ornament, and discover how she transformed French education, fashion, architecture, and even agriculture—never mind her influential eye for haute couture and her trailblazing push for women's rights. History leaps off the page as Don and Petie describe the research adventures that led from wine cellars in exile to dusty university archives, weaving Eugenie's Spanish roots, shrewd business mind, and political resiliency into the culture of modern France. Experience the story of how personal ambition, societal prejudice, and the subtle power of a forgotten woman unravel through lost letters, chance encounters, and a passion for all things French—especially when there's a bottle uncorked at the finish line. This is not just history; it's the tale of how one extraordinary woman shaped a nation, told by those who know how to find magic in both a glass and a story.

Discussing the next pair of cards in the Tarot turned into a strange weather pattern of emotions for the two hosts Sammy and Kristen. The Empress and Death takes them on a tour through abundant, sunny, embodied life and the cold, harsh winter of death. This episode speaks for itself; the task of risking the safety of performing to really live the dirty, grounded, imperfect life before we die.

Today's Song of the Day is “Tomás (feat. Chromeo & Empress Of)” by Girl Ultra.Girl Ultra will be performing at Turf Club on Saturday, August 30.
In this episode, I share my personal story about my journey with the Divine Feminine — how my early relationship with religion shaped my understanding (or lack of understanding) of the Goddess, and how time (and a lot of healing) has shaped it into something far more sacred and sovereign.This episode is about the reclamation of the Empress — not just in the Tarot, but in the body, in relationships, and in our creative power. I speak about how our Queen of Tarot council (inside the YouTube membership) became a mystical gateway for invoking the Empress archetype herself… and how a season of life in Italy, where the presence of Mary saturated the landscape, cracked something wide open in me.If you've ever wrestled with shame, dogma, or suppression around your own feminine energy… or if you're on a path of healing the inner marriage between feminine and masculine… this one is for you.We're restoring the throne of the Feminine in our hearts and reclaiming the innate sovereignty of our Creative Source.—Mentioned in this episode:
This session is for the ones who've always felt there was more, more truth, more purpose, more magic to this life than what we've been told. You didn't stumble on this video by accident. You were guided here to remember who you are and why you came. In this Earth History transmission, we journey through the sacred origins of our planet, the galactic intention behind her creation, and the many advanced civilizations, like Lemuria and Atlantis, that shaped humanity's consciousness. Athina takes you through the forgotten truths of Earth's design as a living library and the role YOU play in her ascension timeline. If you've ever felt connected to the stars, sensed memories of ancient lifetimes, or carried a deep soul knowing that you're here for something bigger, this session will activate your remembrance.

Powerful, cunning, uncompromising, even murderous (allegedly)... meet Rome's first empress and one of ancient history's ultimate power players.Livia Drusilla has long been cast as the bloodthirsty matriarch of the early Roman Empire — wife of Augustus, mother of Tiberius, and alleged poisoner of rivals. But how much of this infamous image is fact and how much is fantasy? In this episode, Tristan Hughes is joined by Dr Emma Southon to peel back the layers of scandal and explore the real story behind Livia's complex legacy.

On this episode of The Wrestle Radio Show, we take the bold step into the creative trenches to reimagine the futures of two of WWE's most electrifying talents—Shinsuke Nakamura and Asuka.

Yes, that Logan Paul. Drawing on his polarizing presence and headline-grabbing past, we'll discuss how tapping into his infamous “suicide forest” controversy could amplify this trio's storytelling impact. Buckle up as we debate whether this edgy concept is a creative stroke of genius or a potential misfire too hot to handle.From building deeper character layers to generating conversations that transcend the squared circle, we break down how this clash of charisma, redemption arcs, and calculated risk-taking could not only rejuvenate Nakamura and Asuka's reputations but create one of the most buzzworthy angles in modern wrestling.If you're ready for unconventional ideas that push the envelope, this is an episode you don't want to miss!

Envisioning the Empress illuminates dynamic and powerful empresses who impacted not only women in their own time but whose influence extended to later generations of royalty, creating a greater role for imperial women and elevating the status of women's roles at a crucial juncture in Japanese history. The central focus of this book is visual monarchy, exploring how the empress' biographies were primarily expressed in visual culture and how their images worked in support of Japan's imperial policies in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. The book begins with a brief overview of premodern and modern imperial women to orient the reader. In each chapter, different media, audiences, and distribution channels for constructing the narrative of feminine imperial power in Japan are addressed alongside biographical information. It is argued that the ultimate purpose of all of these images was to elevate the empress and promote her image as a conventional role model for modern women, but one with enough celebrity cache to maintain popularity. The images of the modern empresses, as distributed by the Imperial Household Agency, strike a balance between propaganda and popular media, noble philanthropist and upper-middle class role model, celebrity and mother of the nation. The modern empress image was crafted to be both exalted and approachable and worked to establish individual biographies while simultaneously establishing the position of the empress as timeless in the public eye. Envisioning the Empress introduces students of royal studies as well as modern Japanese history and art history to this fascinating element of the history of monarchy and women's history more broadly.

Thirty-three years after the fall of Napoleon Bonaparte’s Empire, his nephew (known as Napoleon III) became the first president of France before becoming emperor himself. Although he was a capable ruler and reformer, Napoleon III’s failed military campaigns, especially France’s loss to Germany in the Franco-Prussian War, led to his defeat, capture, and the fall of the Second French Empire and permanent eclipse of Germany in military power. Many historians have blamed Napoleon III’s wife for his failings. Eugénie de Montijo was a Spanish noblewoman who became the last French empress. She was a cultural tastemaker and activist for feminist equality, but many blame her blunders when she held power as regent for France’s worst failures and reckless rush into a ruinous war with Germany. But the story of her life has rarely been told in full. It was a career filled with glamour, achievement, and tragedy, as well as contributions that transformed the nation she ruled unlike any other royal noblewoman in Europe. She spearheaded movements in health and education to help transform France into a modern country. She pushed Parisian architecture toward steel and glass construction of buildings as well as for inclusion of green spaces throughout the city, many of which exist today. Most of all, she crafted much of the idea of what it means to be French in the modern era. Today’s guests are Petie Kladstrup and Evelyne Resnick, authors of “The Last Empress of France: The Rebellious Life of Eugénie de Montijo.”See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

FASHION IS CIVILIZATION. 1/4: Liberty Equality Fashion: The Women Who Styled the French Revolution Hardcover – by Anne Higonnet (Author) https://www.amazon.com/Liberty-Equality-Fashion-Styled-Revolution/dp/0393867951 Joséphine Bonaparte, future Empress of France; Térézia Tallien, the most beautiful woman in Europe; and Juliette Récamier, muse of intellectuals, had nothing left to lose. After surviving incarceration and forced incestuous marriage during the worst violence of the French Revolution of 1789, they dared sartorial revolt. Together, Joséphine and Térézia shed the underwear cages and massive, rigid garments that women had been obliged to wear for centuries. They slipped into light, mobile dresses, cropped their hair short, wrapped themselves in shawls, and championed the handbag. Juliette made the new style stand for individual liberty. The erotic audacity of these fashion revolutionaries conquered Europe, starting with Napoleon. Everywhere a fashion magazine could reach, women imitated the news coming from Paris. It was the fastest and most total change in clothing history. Two centuries ahead of its time, it was rolled back after only a decade by misogynist rumors of obscene extravagance. New evidence allows the real fashion revolution to be told. This is a story for our time: of a revolution that demanded universal human rights, of self-creation, of women empowering each other, and of transcendent glamor 120+ full color illustrations throughout 1789

In the latter half of the 19th century, Europe was dazzled by the beauty, charm and sensibility of two empresses: Eugénie, Empress of the French via her marriage to Napoleon III; and Elisabeth (or 'Sisi'), consort to the Austrian emperor, Franz Joseph. Author Nancy Goldstone speaks to Danny Bird about the lives of these two women, revealing how they broke boundaries and redefined what a royal consort could be.
