In this episode, Odessa—a transgender woman and former Anglican priest—shares her journey of transition alongside a deep wrestling with faith, vocation, and identity. She reflects on growing up with alienation and shame, the freedom she's found in embracing her femininity, and the costs of that journey for her family, church, and relationships.

What does body image look like when you're queer, partnered, confident… and still unlearning everything you were taught?In this episode, Alex & Kayla get deeply honest about body image, desire, and self-perception inside queer relationships. They talk about comparing yourself to your past body, feeling pressure to look “gay enough,” navigating femme and masc expectations, and how confidence, strength, and self-expression shape attraction far more than size or shape.From almond moms and Gen Z style anxiety to masculinity, femininity, fitness, sex, and learning how to dress—and live—for yourself, this conversation explores what it really means to feel at home in your body when the rules you grew up with no longer apply.This is a candid, funny, and thoughtful episode about queer identity, lesbian relationships, body neutrality, confidence, and the slow, imperfect work of decentering the gaze and choosing yourself.00:00 – Intro: Married, Codependent, and Back in the Jungle01:00 – Queer Camp Update + Life in Nicaragua05:30 – Today's Topic: Body Image in Queer Relationships06:40 – “My Body Had to Be ___ to Deserve Affection”09:00 – Comparing Your Body to Your Past Self11:00 – Unlearning Food, Rest, and Exercise Guilt13:35 – Body Image in the Queer World vs the Straight World17:00 – Confidence, Self-Expression, and Attraction19:00 – Dating Women: Feeling Bigger, Stronger, or More Visible24:30 – When Body Image Wasn't the Problem at All26:00 – Weight Gain, Health, and Changing Body Shapes28:00 – Masculinity, Femininity, and Wanting a Different Body31:00 – Being Femme, Being “Hot,” and Decentering Men34:00 – Getting Dressed for Yourself (Not the Gaze)37:15 – Listener Hot Takes on Body Image39:30 – Masc vs Femme Bodies & Internalized Misogyny42:00 – Aesthetic Attraction vs Romantic Attraction44:00 – Power, Confidence, and “The Hotter Partner”46:20 – Are Queer People Expected to Be More Body-Evolved?49:45 – Gender Identity vs Learned Body Shame52:40 – Who's the Problem: Men, Women, or the Patriarchy?58:30 – The One Thing We All Fixate On01:00:00 – Why We Do This to Ourselves

Have you ever wondered what Light Language was? Or felt left out because you couldn't “speak” light language like others could?Are you wondering if you're not spiritual enough because it's not flowing?If you've felt blocked, confused, or disconnected from your soul's voice…This video will bring deep clarity and next steps.In this video, you'll learn:

Sophia Lorey is joined in Episode 63 of This Is a Woman Podcast by Faith Ozenbaugh, National Director of Young Women for America, for a candid and thought-provoking conversation on feminism versus biblical femininity and why the distinction matters.Together, Sophia and Faith unpack how modern feminism has shifted across its waves, ultimately leaving many women confused, discouraged, and disconnected from their God-given design. Faith walks listeners through the origins of the feminist movement, explaining where early legal victories gave way to ideological extremes that now undermine women, family, and truth itself.The conversation then turns toward biblical femininity not as a rigid checklist or cultural trend, but as a heart posture rooted in surrender to Christ and grounded in Scripture. Drawing from women throughout the Bible, including Deborah, Sophia and Faith highlight how Scripture affirms women as strong, wise, courageous leaders who flourish when they live in alignment with God's design rather than cultural pressure.Listeners will also hear a clear breakdown of common misconceptions surrounding submission, marriage, and womanhood, as well as a thoughtful critique of both radical feminism and the modern “tradwife” movement. Faith explains why neither extreme reflects the full biblical picture and why femininity is not limited to marriage or motherhood, but expressed faithfully in every season of a woman's life.The episode closes with a powerful reminder: femininity is not a burden, weakness, or form of oppression. It is a gift. Sophia and Faith encourage young women to reject the lies of feminism that demean womanhood, embrace biblical truth with discernment, and find joy, freedom, and purpose in the way God uniquely created them.Links mentioned:Young Women for America: https://concernedwomen.org/ywa/Concerned Women for America: https://concernedwomen.org/YWA on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/yw4a/

Trauma does not live only in the mind. It lives in the body — and in community.In this powerful solo episode of The Secret Formula of Femininity, Dr. Nicole Monteiro explores why the body remembers trauma, how emotions are stored in the nervous system, and why movement, rhythm, and ritual have always been central to healing across cultures.Drawing from:nervous system sciencesomatic psychologytraditional African and diasporic movement practicesand her published research African Dance as a Healing Modality throughout the Diaspora (Monteiro & Wall, 2011)Dr. Monteiro bridges ancient collective healing practices with modern clinical understanding to explain how trauma is regulated, released, and integrated through the body.In this episode, you'll learn:Why trauma cannot be resolved by insight aloneHow the nervous system stores unresolved emotional energyWhy traditional movement and ritual regulated communities for centuriesWhat modern society lost when healing became individual and verbalHow women across generations can safely reintroduce embodied healing todayWhy collective practices restore safety faster than isolationIf you've ever said, “I've talked about this, but my body still reacts,” this episode explains why — and what your body has been waiting for.

Vulnerability + Visibility = Virality The cheat code to your next level of confidence, connection, and income What if virality wasn't about algorithms, trends, or posting more — but about letting yourself be seen before you feel ready? In this episode, I'm breaking down the real relationship between vulnerability, visibility, and virality, and why most women stay invisible not because they lack talent — but because they're waiting for confidence that only comes after they show up. I'm sharing my own real-time experience with returning to my art, posting imperfect sketches, and allowing people to witness the process — and how that vulnerability created deeper connection, conversations, and momentum than perfection ever could. In this episode, we talk about: Why visibility is a skill, not a personality trait How vulnerability builds confidence after execution Why most women hide their becoming — and what it costs them The difference between performing online vs. communicating clearly How visibility creates trust, authority, and opportunities Why virality is often a byproduct of resonance, not strategy If you've been feeling called to share more of yourself — your ideas, your creativity, your perspective — but fear has been holding you back, this episode is your permission slip. ✨ You don't need to be ready. ✨ You need to be visible. Ready to go deeper? This is the work we do inside Shine Online — learning how to communicate with clarity, build confidence through visibility, and turn your voice into authority and income without burning out.

I recently read something that stopped me in my tracks: being fat robbed me of my femininity.And I haven't been able to shake it.In this episode, I pose a question that came out of a Reddit thread but really speaks to a shared experience so many of us quietly lived: growing up, did femininity ever feel like it wasn't meant for you?I'm sharing my own experiences of being invisible next to friends, being talked about like I wasn't even a person, not being able to shop where other girls shopped, missing out on certain “girlhood” moments, and learning very early on which bodies were allowed to be soft, desired, and feminine and which weren't.We'll talk about how those moments shape us long after childhood, how confidence can coexist with old wounds, and what it actually looks like to take your femininity back without performing it or earning permission.If you've ever felt like girlhood passed you by, or like femininity came with conditions you didn't meet, this episode is for you. You're not alone—and you didn't imagine it.Show Notes!

You can talk about your healing. You can analyze your emotions. You can understand your trauma.But if the emotion never moves through the body… it doesn't leave.In this powerful solo episode of The Secret Formula of Femininity, Dr. Nicole Monteiro explores dance as a healing modality, emotional expression through movement, and why the body holds what the mind avoids.Drawing from her lived experience as a professional African dancer—training in Guinea, performing across the United States and Japan, and studying dance as a healing practice—Dr. Nicole blends psychology, neuroscience, and embodiment to explain how movement regulates the nervous system and restores emotional flow.In this episode, you'll learn:Why talk therapy alone isn't always enoughHow emotions get stored in the bodyThe difference between sensuality and sexualityHow dance helps release grief, anger, desire, and joyWhy feminine embodiment increases emotional and relational safetyHow to begin using movement as medicine✨ If you've ever felt emotionally “stuck,” disconnected from your body, or numb despite self-awareness—this episode is for you.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/the-secret-formula-of-femininity/exclusive-content

So many women are doing all the right things — and still not living the life, love, or ease they desire.Why?Because attraction doesn't respond to tactics.It responds to identity.In this solo episode of The Secret Formula of Femininity, Dr. Nicole Monteiro explores what it actually means to become the woman who has what she desires — rather than endlessly trying to get it.This episode breaks down why:Identity shapes attraction more than strategyNervous system regulation influences what you attractDesire responds to who you are being, not how hard you tryOver-efforting often signals an identity mismatchFeminine embodiment creates magnetism without chasingBlending psychology, embodiment, and lived insight, this episode invites you to shift from striving to stabilizing — from tactics to identity.✨ If you've been doing all the work but still feel like you're chasing… this episode is for you.

What does authentic masculinity and femininity actually look like? In part two of this special SEEK 26 episode, Dr. Sri continues his conversation with Pete Burak, focusing on one of the most pressing cultural dynamics facing young adults today: the growing tension between men and women. Together, they unpack how the Catholic faith helps us heal that tension and come to a fuller understanding of God's plan for each gender. _ _ For full shownotes, visit Ascensionpress.com/Allthingscatholic, or text ALLTHINGSCATHOLIC to 33-777 for weekly shownotes sent to your inbox.

This week I talk about alcohol prohibition and the birth of the 18th Amendment. Mainstream media, strategically manipulated by a woman named Carrie Nation and her posse of temperance propagandists, talked the United States into responding to problems stemming from rapid industrialization (addiction, homelessness, etc.) by outlawing alcohol in 1919, and they pulled it off by using Christianity and Femininity as tools of social change despite being unable to vote as women at that time. Support the show

Some of the most powerful relationship lessons don't come from books or therapy sessions — they come from embodied practices that teach us how to slow down, soften, and trust timing.In this deeply personal solo episode of The Secret Formula of Femininity, Dr. Nicole Monteiro shares how inheriting a love of gardening from her grandmother became a grounding feminine practice — one that strengthened her nervous system, deepened her marriage, and reshaped how she relates to love.This episode explores:• How gardening regulates the nervous system and reduces stress• Why embodied feminine practices create emotional safety in relationships• The surprising link between patience, softness, and lasting love• How releasing control strengthens intimacy• Why feminine hobbies are not “extra,” but essential for relational health• What tending the soil teaches us about tending loveBlending personal storytelling, psychology, and research, this episode invites you to rethink strength, productivity, and connection — and consider how slowing down may be the very thing your relationship needs.If you've been feeling rushed, hardened, or disconnected — from yourself or your partner — this episode offers a gentle return to softness, presence, and rooted love.

Some of the identities we're most proud of are the ones quietly harming us.In this powerful solo myth-busting episode of The Secret Formula of Femininity, Dr. Nicole Monteiro unpacks the cultural, psychological, and health myths many women — especially Black women — were taught to survive… but were never meant to live inside forever.This episode challenges three deeply ingrained myths:✨ The Strong Black Woman myth✨ The Independent at All Costs myth✨ The belief that Soft = WeakAnd it exposes the health myths that come with them:• “Strong means neglecting your body”• “Weight and health are just discipline, not lifestyle balance”• “Rest is laziness”Blending personal storytelling, psychology, and research-informed insight, this episode explores how chronic stress, hyper-independence, and self-neglect show up in women's bodies — and how redefining strength through boundaries, softness, and regulation is an act of healing.If you've ever felt guilty resting…If you've pushed through symptoms to keep functioning…If you've been praised for being strong while quietly breaking inside…This episode is for you.

Why is modern health failing women, and what does it look like to return to alignment with our bodies, our biology, and our purpose? Ste sits down with Dr. Marley Quinn, a chiropractor whose journey from veganism, orthorexia, and conventional medicine to faith, cycle syncing, and holistic healing has transformed her life and her health. Marley opens up about: Rejecting conventional medicine's pill-for-every-problem model Leaving veganism and embracing animal-based, biblical eating Healing food obsession through instinctive eating Reconciling yoga, Christianity, and the search for God Why the 9–5 system fights the female hormone cycle The girlboss trap, status chasing, and the crisis of meaning Restoring feminine energy, family, and divine purpose Together they explore why today's medical and cultural systems were never designed for the female body, how women can reconnect with their hormonal rhythms, and what happens when we stop chasing perfection and start listening to our innate wisdom.

#201: Tired of feeling whiplash from dating that starts strong, then fades by month three? We're pulling the curtain back on the pattern so many women recognize: consistent texts, thoughtful questions, future talk, and then a sudden dip in energy that gets explained away as “not ready” or “let's go with the flow.” We explore why these early signals feel like intention, how they set expectations, and what to do when words and actions stop matching.We dig into the deeper wiring, too. If inconsistency felt normal in childhood, your body might confuse unease with chemistry and intensity with safety. That's why steady effort can feel boring while the rollercoaster feels alive. We also unpack a subtler trend: when emotional intimacy becomes a shortcut to closeness—asking all the right questions without the capacity to maintain real responsibility. Masks don't just fall; they expire. Around the three to six month mark, performance gives way to patterns, and that's your clearest data point.So where does that leave us? With practical choices. We're choosing actions that don't need interpretation, a steady pace over fireworks, patterns over promises, and emotional responsibility over convenience. We talk about age and accountability, why access without direction is a dealbreaker, and how to ask for structure without apologizing. Most of all, we reframe “pressure” as a request for alignment: if the reality is close connection, let the definition reflect it. Silence protects the pattern; clarity protects you.If this conversation resonates, follow the show, share it with a friend who needs a confidence boost, and leave a quick review to help more listeners find us. Your story matters—what pattern are you choosing to stop recycling next?You can now send us a text to ask a question or review the show. We would love to hear from you!
