Beloved Wise Woman, I'm Soraya.
I'm a Spiritual Advisor, Thought Leader, and Women's Mentor. For over 20 years, I've immersed myself in the realms of leadership, personal development, spirituality, holistic wellness, and the sacred wisdom of the feminine. I become activated when sharing insights that catalyse profound personal and collective change - from understanding our menstrual cycles to reclaiming the power of the dark feminine archetype in order to lead with vision and conviction. Through these transformative practices, my purpose is to support women in activating their full potential as spiritual leaders, thought pioneers, and agents of positive transformation.
In today's complex and rapidly changing world, we need the unique perspectives and leadership qualities that women can bring. Women often have a collaborative, empathetic, and holistic approach to problem-solving that can be invaluable for addressing the multifaceted challenges we face as a society. Female leaders tend to prioritise social impact, sustainability, and the wellbeing of all stakeholders as well as profits. As women continue to break through glass ceilings and shatter societal structures, their voices and ideas are vital for shaping a more just, equitable, and regenerative future for all.
My Journey of Awakening
My own journey of awakening began nearly a decade ago, after a harrowing experience during the 2015 Paris terrorist attacks. As I lay on the pavement, facing the possibility of death, a profound sense of inner peace washed over me. In that moment, I accepted that I might return to the source of all creation. The years that followed were challenging, as I navigated a decline in my mental and physical wellbeing, as well as the collapse of a young marriage. Yet it was within this darkness that I discovered the necessity of taking full responsibility for my life and reconnecting with my authentic self.
In 2017, I made the decision to transform my life. I stepped away from conventional routines and expectations, embarking on a journey of expansion that has spanned three continents. Through deepening my meditation practice, exploring plant medicine, and immersing myself in holistic wellness, I've undergone a remarkable metamorphosis. Being introduced to Menstrual Cycle Awareness was a pivotal moment in my journey as I was able to tap into a profound inner wisdom that previously laid dormant to me. Cycle awareness was the missing link that allowed me reclaim all parts of myself and opened the door to deeper knowing and feminine embodiment.
Matriarchal Insights and the Urgency of Female Leadership
During my travels, I spent time with indigenous cultures rooted in matriarchal societies. I observed that when women lead, entire communities flourish. These societies exemplified an approach that promotes collective well-being, intertwined with a deep reverence for Mother Earth. I witnessed how awakened women - those attuned to their intuition and purpose - can initiate profound change and inspire others. This insight solidified my belief in the importance of feminine power and womb wisdom in awakening women, resulting in thriving communities.
In today's world, where challenges like social injustice, economic disparity, and health crises persist, the need for female leaders is urgent. Women bring unique perspectives and collaborative approaches that can drive innovative solutions and invite inclusivity. By amplifying women's voices and leadership skills, we create pathways for transformation in both individuals and the broader community.
The Future of Awakened Women
I envision a vibrant community of Awakened Women – each knowing deeply who they are, what they stand for, and practising radical honesty with themselves and others. An awakened woman is a spiritual woman because her awakening often involves a connection with something greater than the physical aspects of life. This awakening is rooted in self-awareness, inner exploration, and a recognition of the spiritual dimension flowing through her being.
An Awakened Woman embraces her power with reverence. She embodies both strength and vulnerability, leading from her heart with unwavering integrity. She becomes a beacon of light, illuminating the shadows of societal injustices, personal limitations, and emotional wounds. In doing so, she encourages healing and transformation, inviting individuals and communities to face their fears and biases with courage. Through her empathy, she nurtures deeper understanding and connection, inspiring others to awaken to their limitless potential.
