Ignite the Sacred Feminine in the Workplace with These 5 Unexpected Books!

This post may contain affiliate links. Please read our disclosure for more info.

I recognize this seems like an odd collection of books, but I hope you bear with me as I explain why I would say that these five books can ignite your sacred feminine in the work place!

I should also preface this by saying I’m not against the masculine in the workplace, only that for too long it’s been running the show! I believe women’s voices are largely overlooked, unheard, and the idea that we have to push for results (masculine) rather than allow (feminine) is a way we no longer have to be.

It should be a balance.

In order to come to balance, it’s time for the sacred feminine to enter the workforce and allow for the sacred masculine to meet her. It may not be quick and it may shock many of the men in the room, but it’s necessary.

If you haven’t read my post on Why You Should Cry at Work, it’s a helpful read to understand my position on why I feel holding emotions in, trying to operate from the traditional masculine that we’ve gotten used to, is outdated – and well, just plain boring.

When I first entered the corporate work place so many moons ago, I quickly discovered that my ideas went largely unheard. Which is okay considering I was a newbie and didn’t understand the ways of business yet and had a lot to learn.

But as time went on, I began to see something more concerning. As I become more knowledgeable, more of an expert in my field, more educated in business with even the coursework to back it up, my voice still went largely unheard.

My voice was unheard while my male counterparts, with the equivalent or less experience, were largely supported.

I would have an idea that was shot down in minutes only to be brought up a day later by a male colleague and it would be a great idea when coming from him. No one would seem to remember that I had already brought it up!

Now, several years of awakening later and really learning to OWN my energy and power, I know that this had more to do with me than with them.

Thankfully times they are a changing and these books were beyond significant to my stepping into my Sacred Feminine when it comes to work.

I am no longer willing to blend to fit in.

I am no longer willing to pretend that my values aren’t my family, my sense of self, and my intuitive gifts.

I am no longer willing to be in an energetically dense environment and have to lower my vibe to do my job rather than be able to shine my light brightly.

I’m no longer afraid to say that shining my light matters more to me than anything else.

I give the authors of each of these books credit for reaching me at a time when I really was ready to have their words support me. To have them be the way showers for me to really OWN what I feel is my right to be happy. My right to be happy in all areas of my life, including work.

Not only be happy, but I feel completely aligned with my life purpose. My reason for being on this planet.

Which really, what more can you ask for???

Well, maybe a million dollars, but the book for that is included in this post too, lol.

How about you? Are you ready to embrace your feminine side and allow it to bring harmony to your work life? Are you ready to truly trust your intuition rather than go against it because that’s the way it’s always done?

Here is why I think everyone woman rising, and every male who is finding themselves wanting to do things in a different way, should consider reading these books!

1. The Sacred Six. JB Glossinger.

First off, this book is instrumental to providing a process for you to determine what you REALLY want in your work life. What do you value? What is most important? For example, if you say you really value time with your family and then you take a job with a 2-hour commute and 60-hour workweek, you will feel unfulfilled. Developing your Sacred Six helps you make decisions when opportunities arise to make sure your values are always at the forefront.

2. Rise Sister Rise. Rebecca Campbell.

Awww… Rebecca Campbell is vulnerable and honest in holding space for the Sacred Feminine to rise. Not only with this book, but with her online FB group Rise Sister Rise. This is a guidebook to honoring your natural rhythms, visiting sacred places, understand the role of the feminine in the world and so much freaking more. I found it inspiring and a natural fit if you would like to step out of the spiritual closet – even if you don’t know you’re in one, lol. This book made me feel like I was not alone and that I should never compromise.

3. Dying To Be Me: My Journey from Cancer, to Near Death, to True Healing. Anita Moorjani.

Anita Moorjani’s heartfelt account of what she learned from her Near Death Experience and subsequent miraculous healing is such a power-freaking-ful look at what happens to our soul when we hide. When we dim our light. When we allow ourselves to be silenced. She did what she was “supposed” to in terms of her family upbringing and culture but it was so painful and so out of alignment with who she was. I do not want to suggest she gave herself cancer, but I do want to say that her NDE was a gift to the world on why it’s important to really do what it takes to shine. She came back and has used her voice to help others through her books, speaking engagements and Hay House Radio. I hope you read her story and her wisdom.

4. Witch: Unleashed. Untamed. Unapologetic. Lisa Lister.

Lisa Lister. Can I just say “Wow” and leave it at that? Lol. No, I can’t because some people connect to this book and some have a reaction to this book.

I think this book is important for women to read because it’s so many of our spiritual history as to why we can be afraid to speak up and be heard! It’s written in such a way that at first it can feel jarring, but as you continue it’s empowering.

It’s empowering because the energy of the witch hunts has not yet been healed. Women were forced to turn on other women, mothers on daughters. Women were killed for no reason other than someone thought you were conspiring when really you may have just been chatting with a friend.

Worse still, sacred rituals and our ability to connect to nature and the moon cycles was severely impacted by this killing spree.

Lisa Lister shares not only the history but how to come back into our voices and our Magic.

In my story I shared of not being heard in the office, I’ve wondered was it them or me? Was I afraid to be heard or was I not heard for other reasons?

Well, I’m no longer afraid and I credit this book with waking something inside me that has really allowed me to step into a space where I am proud to be female and embrace the sacred feminine in my work where traditional masculine used to be what I followed to be successful.

5. Unleash Your Inner Money Babe: Uplevel Your Money Mindset and Manifest $1,000 in 21 Days. Kathrin Zenkina.

Last but not least, often if we are on a path to really help people heal or somehow shine our light, we can tend to think of money as unimportant or even negative.

I LOVE that Kathrin Zenkina is shattering these beliefs. The world needs abundant people shining our light rather than broke and crumbling. Right?

What I really love most about this book is her Day 17: Squashing Limiting Beliefs chapter. It is great for your money beliefs, but also for ANY limiting belief you may have. Any! I’ve used it for so many barriers I’ve faced to help me get to the next level, and the next one, and the next one.

To me, my focus is always on raising my vibration. I figure the better I feel, the more I can help others and the healthier I am. This book has helped me not only with my money mindset, but in my whole life as well.

If you’ve read, or you do read any of these books, please let me know how you like them in the comments. I hope they are as helpful for you as they’ve been for me.

XOXO,
