We are in the middle of a divine feminine evolution on our planet, and Dr. Julie Hanks is all for it. A licensed social worker and clinical therapist focused on women's emotional health and relationships, Dr. Hanks is an advocate for helping women develop their spirituality.
Today we are diving into the universal struggle to understand and accept the divine feminine, why we should stop perpetuating our dominator culture, and finding your voice as a woman within religious contexts.

Dr. Hanks is an inspiring supporter of caregiving, equality and using your feminine voice to better conditions for all. How do you embrace your inner divine feminine within your home and religion? Let us know in the comments.
