Kiva Leatherman: Competing to Win, Collaborating to Live
"By embracing collaboration, I was able to regain my financial success without sacrificing my soul." - Kiva Leatherman, Women Will Save the World
In the second essay of Women Will Save the World, founder and president of the Wise Women Network and radio talk show host, Kiva Leatherman writes about her history of always having a competitive attitude towards success. From being star-driven in youth to becoming a well-paid businesswoman, she always strove to outshine her peers. She soon discovered there is a stark, cold reality that comes with being at "the top," however. She then learned to approach business and life in a different way that was much more rewarding by utilizing her inherent feminine gift of collaboration.

Kiva was also interviewed as part of Vanessa Halloum's coverage of Women Will Save the World on Feminine Soul Radio. Listen or download here.

Catrice M. Jackson: Collaborating to Create Change the Feminine Way
"Choosing feminine collaboration in our lives, work, and mission decreases competition, lessens the struggle, and affords us more ease and grace." - Catrice M. Jackson, Women Will Save the World
In the very first essay of Women Will Save the World, international empowerment speaker and bestselling author, Catrice M. Jackson shares how she discovered the beauty of the true feminine, in all its strength and power. One of the most important aspects of embracing femininity is learning to collaborate with one another. When the workplace is filled with catty gossip and negative feelings, the low vibrations are felt by all. Ultimately, the work suffers and the team becomes demoralized. But when we step up and over all of that, allowing the feminine tendency towards collaboration to prevail, we allow for a harmonious environment filled with high vibrations which benefits everyone. The team can then thrive and accomplish goals and objectives much more easily.
Catrice elaborates on this point quite beautifully. "Living in the feminine and collaborating from this space allows us to care for ourselves, care for others, and impact the world with the collective power of connectedness and compassion." Women will not accomplish much by cutting each other down. Instead, women will save the world by harmonizing, and little by little, accomplishing bigger and bigger tasks that will benefit all.

Caroline A. Shearer Appears as Guest on Feminine Soul Radio with Vanessa Halloum!
Bestselling author and Absolute Love Publishing founder Caroline A. Shearer made a guest appearance on Feminine Soul Radio with Vanessa Halloum to discuss Shearer's latest book "Women Will Save the World." Shearer commented on the collaborative nature of the creative process behind a book project of this magnitude. Shearer said, "I think so much of our
power comes from collaboration, and from sharing with each other what we've
learned. It’s an excellent way to reach people and
share our feminine nature and share our feminine power with others and
hopefully inspire them to do the same."
She also described the domino effect that women saving the world will have. "Our strength comes from operating from where we are... It's all of us making our worlds the best they can be." The feminine acts of collaboration, creativity, and strength (among others) expand from there, to grow and create a larger and larger space of improvement until the whole world, and all of humanity within it, is changed for the better.

She also shared some details about the creative process responsible for this remarkable collection.
When Jenny asked about the importance of a woman's strength, Caroline said, "Women make the world go round and we impact the world in more ways than we know simply by being our natural strong selves." Women have the desire to make their environments better. They have a sense of what will improve things for humanity, and this is how they save the world.

Ways to Celebrate Your Feminine:
"Step out of your comfort zone, and then applaud yourself for your bravery." - Caroline A. Shearer
Because it's too easy to stick to the same old routine! This doesn't mean you have to go jumping out of an airplane or become a world-traveler. (Unless you want to, of course!) It just means don't be afraid to try something new. It could be simple, like a new hairstyle or color. It might be a new article of clothing, like a bright red scarf, to spice up your wardrobe. Whatever it is you decide to do or change, don't hesitate. Step into it, embrace it, own it. Then give yourself a round of applause for your efforts.
The women of "Women Will Save the World" offer inspiring and insightful stories about all of the things they accomplished once they set aside their fears and stepped out of their comfort zones to live their dreams and follow through with their life purposes. Whether it is choosing to become a speaker who inspires and empowers others, like Catrice M. Jackson, or facing the challenge of telling someone you love that you have an illness, like Mary Ellen Ciganovich, women have the power and strength to save the world through the qualities that they naturally possess.

Another Way to Find Balance in the Feminine:
"Appreciate when your wisdom is best shared, and when it is best saved, and be mindful there is much knowledge beyond that which you are cognitively aware." - Caroline A. Shearer
One of the fabulous traits of femininity, as explored in "Women Will Save the World," is an inherent inner wisdom. Oftentimes, it is something we internalize as it is passed down from our mothers or grandmothers, but it can also take the form of an inner sense of knowing what is best for us. In the book, Jenny Craig shares her own powerful wisdom about the importance of forgiveness through a trying experience of her own. Sally Franz and Kathryn Peters-Brinkley share the wisdom they inherited from their grandmothers. Sue Lee tells of the lessons her mother taught her. Singer Tene Williams gives her story of the inner wisdom she had when she was just sixteen, shying away from fame to finish school.
Our womanly wisdom can work wonders for ourselves when we listen to it. But we must also be mindful of others. Sometimes we may feel the need to share our wisdom with others who are on their own paths and may not be ready to hear our advice. On the other hand, there are those who will be receptive and ready. Just be sensitive to those around you and keep in mind there is much, much knowledge out there of which we are not aware.

Find Balance in the Feminine:
"Discover a way to distinguish your intuition from your ego." - Caroline A. Shearer
Intuition comes to us from the soul. Listening to our feminine intuition is the best way to stay on the right track. Sometimes, however, the voice of intuition can be confused with the voice of ego. The ego often guides in ways that are built on selfishness or pride, and not out of love. We must open ourselves to love, self-love and love for others. We must open our hearts, and really look inside our souls to find the voice of intuition.
Some people may be more in touch with their intuition than others, but it is something that we all have. Sometimes we just need a little guidance. To really get in tune with our intuition, we must first set aside all outside noises and distractions. Practicing yoga or meditation might be helpful for some. Or taking a walk through nature might be helpful to others. Maybe even just taking a bubble bath and resting in the tub. It doesn't matter what method you use, as long as you know that inner voice is there and you can cultivate the ability to listen to it. The true sense of intuition is unmistakable and will not steer you wrong!
"Women Will Save the World" contains stories from remarkable women who have learned to utilize the feminine trait of intuition. Read about their experiences by picking up a copy today!

I Am Woman:
"I graciously blossom into my inherent receptive nature and open myself to receiving the goodness of life." - Caroline A. Shearer
Women are blessed with the feminine gift of intuition, a method of inner guidance and a means of following the heart. It is due to our receptive nature that we are allowed access to the inner voice of intuition. Although sometimes a little bit of nurturing is needed to cultivate our abilities to receive the message it is sending. Just like it is impossible to receive a gift from someone with our arms crossed and our eyes closed, we do not allow ourselves the benefit of the goodness of life unless we are open to receiving it mentally and emotionally.
In "Women Will Save the World," Leslie Davenport shares an essay about the natural receptive nature of women and also offers a little bit of coaching. Leslie is the author of "Healing and Transformation Through Self-Guided Imagery" and a founding member of the Institute for Health and Healing in San Francisco, CA. For her part in "Women Will Save the World" she takes us through a "directed" imagery session she had with a patient and also offers a step-by-step guided imagery practice we can all try at home.
