Description

This 7th conversation expands on our last topic of polarities; this time examining the dynamic interplay of masculine and feminine energies in all of us.  How do these energies play out in both men and women? What is their role in gender biases and stereotypes?  What would  a healthy balance of masculine and feminine look and feel like in us, our relationships, and our leaders? And what might it take for us to get there?
