Watch this video to get a taste of the Live Femme! Experience…
I was invited to attend a live Femme! Experience in Philadelphia with the founder of Femme, Bernadette Pleasant, and Philadelphia’s Femme! teacher Antonette Jerrick. They created the safest shared space I’ve ever experienced for me be fully IN MY BODY AND WITH MY EMOTIONALS, which allowed me to fully experience emotional freedom.
Meet Bernadette Pleasant
Femme! was founded by the healer, dancer, entrepreneur, and goddess Bernadette Pleasant. She is LOVE embodied and her PRESENCE is nourishing and electrifying. I couldn’t help but feel safe and FULLY ALIVE in her presence. Her presence is also soulfully soothing.
Bernadette Pleasant’s presence feels like Mother Love, which Christine Arylo refers to as “love we can retreat into, feel held by, move through our deepest fears with. It’s the love we can sink into and cry our hearts out until there are no more tears left, and then wipe off our face, take a deep breath and all of the sudden feel the courage within that same heart to stand up tall and meet the world stronger.”
That’s what it’s like to be in Bernadette’s presence. With her as your emotional tour guide, you are guaranteed to feel her nurturing, supportive, soothing, accepting PRESENCE.
Femme! Wisdom…
“It’s your body and you can do whatever you want with it – including love it unconditionally.” – Bernadette Pleasant
I had the opportunity to sit down with Bernadette to ask her how I can bring the Femme! Experience home with me and bring it into my everyday life. She invited me to create space every day to feel the emotions I am feeling and let myself fall in love with being an Emotional Being. She reminded me that my feelings are letting me know when things matter to me.
“Create space every day to feel the emotions you are feeling. Let yourself fall in love with being an emotional being.” – Bernadette Pleasant
When a feeling shows up, her wisdom is to say…
I AM AN EMOTIONAL BEING.
I am feeling <insert feeling>.
I don’t shame it.
I choose to experience it.
Femme! gives you permission to shed light on your emotions and feel your feelings!
Bernadette reminded me of just how often emotions get cast aside because we shame them. She said, “shedding light on our emotions makes for a healthier experience”. She also talked about how emotions are event driven (something happens and we react emotionally) and to remember that an emotion is not a final destination.
How Femme! Strengthens Your Self-Love…
As a self-love coach, I had to ask Bernadette how the Femme! Experience can strengthen your self-love. She shared a beautiful story of how she created Femme! from her need to have more self-love in her own life.
“Femme! is a journey towards wholeness, freedom and self-love.”
Femme! helps you strengthen your self-love in so many ways, including giving you permission to…
- Courageously express yourself and take up space!
- Be all of who you are unapologetically!
- Comfortable be in your body!
- Be better than just okay with fully and authentically being you!
- Own your self-confidence!
