The invitation

 From Cameron Hannah

Weak men fear powerful women.

Not because they're wrong --

But because she reflects everything they're too

afraid to become.

She doesn't intimidate him because she's too much.

She intimidates him because he's not enough.

Not yet.

Not in his body.

Not in his mission.

Not in his truth.

And so he tries to shrink her.

Tame her.

Control her.

Mock her.

Judge her.

Because if he truly saw her...he'd have to confront everything he's not.

The men who complain about women being too "masculine" are the same men who haven't stepped into their own masculine.

She had to lead.

She had to protect herself.

She had to survive. Because no man showed her what it meant to be safe.

Powerful women don't want to lead forever.

They want to soften.

But they won't sacrifice themselves for a man who hasn't grown.

You want her to respect you?

Then you better be building something worth respecting.

A life.

A backbone.

A mission.

A kingdom.

You don't need to silence her.

You need to awaken yourself.

Because the moment you rise...she will relax.

She's not the problem. She's the invitation.
