We are living in a profound moment in human history. As we envision a post-Coronavirus world, women are needed to step up now more than ever. With the 100th anniversary of women getting the right to vote, and the 2020 Presidential Election just days away, more and more women are awakening to what they are called to and using their gifts, talents and capacities to be catalysts to work together to create a more just and conscious world.
WOMEN RISING! is an epic 2-day virtual gathering October 30-31, 2020 featuring Big Conversations with an array of amazing thought leaders, speakers including Elizabeth Lesser, C0-Founder of the Omega Institute and author; Tami Simon, Founder and Publisher of Sounds True; Helen LaKelly Hunt, Co-Founder of Women Moving Millions, Co-Founder of Imago Relationship International and author; Lynne Twist, Founder of Soul of Money Institute, Co-Founder of Pachamama Alliance and author; Dr. Gail Christopher, CEO of the Board of the Trust for America’s Health and Executive Director of the National Collaborative for Health Equity; Pixie Paula Dezzutti, CEO of Skirt Magazine and CEO of Local Choice Spirits; and Angie Pincin, CEO of Coach People, Inc., and a CEO panel including Charlotte Beers, Rita Scott, and Carolyn Sawyer.
WOMEN RISING! is a unique opportunity for some of the most impactful thought leaders of our time to gather virtually as our speakers, creating opportunities for participants to personally interact and network. Women and men will gather virtually from across the country and around the world for exploration, discovery, and transformation with women leaders who model authenticity and are living lives of powerful purpose. Inspirational women leaders will help connect our minds and hearts to our own inner wisdom as well as offer new pathways and practices to co-create a more just, sustainable, and flourishing world for all people.

“There is a new spiritual consciousness breaking into the world. We could call it a Feminine consciousness. It has the potential to do something that has never been done before: To open the immense common heart of the world. The particular genius of the Feminine is in its valuing of the wisdom of the heart, of interdependence, empathy, relational thinking, compassionate community, intuitive intelligence, peace, creativity, and the sacredness of the earth.”
-Sue Monk Kid
About the Rise of the Feminine:
The rise of feminine consciousness is an awakening of power that is aligned with feminine energy or yin energy. Feminine energy is intuitive, nurturing, relational, creative, artistic, innovative, compassionate, and heart centered. Masculine or yang energy, on the other hand, is centered in logic and reason and is expressed in an outward fashion, epitomized by ‘power over’, rather than ‘power with’. We all carry both masculine and feminine energy, and we need both to be in balance in our lives and in our world and for our wholeness – a true partnership of masculine and feminine energies and leadership styles in men and women.
For millennia, most of planet Earth has been led by a patriarchal approach. This energy has its place, but when there is no balance, it leads to domination and to war, destruction, a lack of compassion, inequality, segregation, egomania, and a rejection of the intuitive power that we all have within. We are seeking a pivotal shift through the Rise of the Feminine, and balance and equity shared between the masculine and feminine which will bring about transformative change for a more just, sustainable, and flourishing world.
“I do think it’s [Rise of the Feminine ] the next level of evolution. And I think that there is a divine plan—that however we’ve tried to muss it up, there’s a destiny that shapes our ends. There will be what I call conscious femininity, and it includes the unity of life. People are beginning to understand their oneness with all things…We are realizing the power of love to heal. That’s an opening of the feminine at a level that we haven’t known, and we have no idea where it will go. We’re just at the beginning of a totally new epoch.”

About The Sophia Institute:
Since 2001, The Sophia Institute has served as a center for learning convening innovative programs focused on personal and societal transformation, led by nationally renowned thought leaders, that foster the rise of the Feminine, in partnership with the Masculine, cultivating wisdom, mindfulness, and well-being for a more just, sustainable and flourishing world. The Sophia Institute offers forums, retreats, lectures, classes, and special events, featuring nationally and internationally renowned leaders and teachers. The Sophia Institute’s core work for personal transformation and initiatives for social transformation where the sacredness of the feminine is in unity with the masculine.
The Sophia Institute also acts as a catalyst for broader change with its Social Justice Racial Equity Collaborative (SJREC) initiative. Working in partnership with non-profit, civic organizations, government and community leaders – the SJREC advances bold strategies that promote systemic change in social justice and racial equity to transform our community into a more just and equitable place to work, live and thrive for all.
“We are living in a time of profound transformation, a time of breakdown and potentially breakthrough, when a new consciousness is trying to break into the world. I think of it as a spiritual consciousness, one that carries the Feminine and joins it with the Masculine and out of that union, a consciousness is forming that is more just and compassionate, one that is transformed from power over to power with, from domination, to collaboration and partnership for a more just and egalitarian world. It honors the web of life, the unity within our diversity, the sacredness in each of our lives and the earth. It is a consciousness that awakens the wisdom of the heart and allows grace to enter our lives, allows us to find a new way of living and being on the earth that honors our unity and our distinction and to tap into what is true.”
