IS FEMINISM DEAD???
Many times over the last 30 years I have been confronted with this question. It's mostly men who ask but sometimes women do too.
And now with the US Presidential campaigns in full swing the question is becoming a joke!
Let me explain.
I think I need to start with the definition of the word since so many people have bastardized it:
The advocacy of women's rights on the grounds of political, social, and economic equality to men.
Pretty simple isn't it.
Now last time I checked women around the world (with some notable
exceptions) are not equal to men in the following categories:
Political
Are you kidding me? Just look at the faces of our political landscape
worldwide and you tell me. Just by the sheer percentages we can say
women are not politically equal. In some countries they are still
not allowed to vote!
Social
Again are we socially equal to men worldwide? Again a resounding
NO!
This doesn't mean we all can't equally go to parties. It means we have the same footing in the Social fabric of our world and we do not!
Socially women in some countries still can't drive or own property or
leave the house without fearing a rape!!
Finally this category also includes the killing of girl fetuses just because they are girls! An activity that still goes on in countries all across the globe.
And of course then we have
Economic
In every poll women in every country make less then men with
rare exceptions. In the US we women make .73 to every dollar
a man makes!
This dooms women to poverty levels over a lifetime. If you are paid
less or in some places not paid at all it effects how much money you will have in a lifetime. And by the way since we are still the primary caretakers of children worldwide this also dooms our children to poverty
and so on and so on and so on.
I for one do not believe Feminism is dead nor should it be!
The test for me is are we equal in these three arenas;
Economic, Social, Political?
If we are behind men in any of these areas the question of
feminism being dead is a question born out of a stupidity and a fear
that women have already arrived and don't need to be strident
about their rights any more.
Or it's some women who have theirs and don't care if we have ours who
want us to shut up and not threaten what they already have.
In the Olden Days (the 60's & 70's) we called this "The Queen Bee Syndrome"
Women who have become successful and do not want to reach out and support other women. Mostly because they are fearful they will lose what they have!
There is a female candidate in the US right now who has just discovered her dormant feminist side. She is making all kinds of comments about
the men in the campaign and what they have said that is anti-woman. She
even pointed out how she was discriminated against in her career. Something she never talked about until her run for President!
However in her tenure in her career It is reported she rarely did anything to help her fellow women. Including self disclosing the discrimination she
had to deal with and how she did it. That information alone could have helped thousands of women along their way. In fact she is quoted as
saying her promotion to CEO was the breaking of the glass ceiling for
all women. Really for all women? Do you feel no glass ceiling above you because there wasn't one above her? Please!
So if this woman can have an epiphany I say all women can. If we
all wake up to the fact we are not yet equal to men and certainly our
sisters worldwide are not in those three categories then we still
have some work to do and Feminism CAN NOT and SHOULD NOT
Die!!
Let me know what you think.

Continuing your Women Moving Forward® experience
If you have ever thought, "I wish I could hear Susan's voice again" or "I want to re-visit what I learned in WMF® now that my life has changed" then
Advanced Women Moving Forward®
REVIEWING or OBSERVING
could be an option for you!
Because women's lives occur in stages: singledom, marriage, kids, etc. we always had the option for women to return to the workshop when they entered a new stage.
Here are the 3 options graduates can use to attend WMF® again:
Attending Advanced Women Moving Forward®
The 2 day workshop will have you focus on:
Your purpose in life and how to live a more purposeful life.
Completing your old Declarations of Self
Creating new Declarations of Self
Reviewing
In this option you are actually a full participant. You do a pre-call and pre-work and participate as a full participant!
You will need to be present for all 3 days and do all the workshop exercises.
The cost is 50% of the total cost of the workshop. So here in the US reviewing currently costs $1875
Observing
In this option you sit at the Observer Table and do the exercises from that vantage point. You can "observe" where you are now and where you need to be next. You participate only silently from the back of the room.
Observing affords you the flexibility to come and go as you please (except during the completion exercise).
You do not participate fully and only speak to the room if asked to by Susan
The cost to Observe is $250 in the US and $450 in other countries.
In every workshop we do we have limited spaces for Reviewers and for Observers.
If you think you will want to Observe or Review please let us know so we can reserve your space.
Next Opportunities to Observe or Review are next week in Cincinnati and in October in Geneva. I look forward to the possibility of seeing some of you soon!
Watch for new schedule of Advanced WMF® in 2016!

2016 Women's Leadership Retreat
FULL
2015 was an incredible year for the Women's Leadership Retreat®
The issues we discussed this year were:
Completion of Death
Kubler-Ross Death and Dying Stages
Completing By Telling the Truth
One of our participants said:
"Feeling so privileged and grateful for an amazing gift and life changing experience. Thank you Susan!!"
Anne
The women attending came away feeling more empowered then ever before. The completion of some very difficult experiences coupled with telling the truth set
them on a more purposeful course
It was a magnificent group of women!

ADVANCED WOMEN MOVING FORWARD®
September 8-9 Geneva, Switzerland only 3 spaces left!
Here are some quotes from the evaluations of the last Advanced Women Moving Forward® Workshop:
"I understand the boundaries that go along with my role, I will be able to make more efficient decisions"
"I have a greater sense of clarity over my life....this has given me the opportunity to start with a clean slate. I am more in touch with myself..."
"I am more purposeful and can lead from a higher level.... I am more 'in the moment' because the distractions are being removed"
"...(I'm) not alone in my experience, support is so helpful... like a renewal of WMF® to a further degree"
"I will live more on purpose at work which will make me more effective in my role...as a leader. This will benefit my company.."
"I plan to move through breakdown as quickly as possible"
"I am more centered and more on purpose which will help me make clearer decisions and improve productivity"
"Knowing that breakdowns are opportunities to learn information to move back into creation vs viewing them as a dead end"
"I will focus on 'who owns the problem' and delegate the solution to them"
"I have let go of old declarations and am refocused on the path forward"
WOMEN'S LEADERSHIP RETREAT©
The 2015 Retreat© last group Dinner on Thursday PM
We used this year's Retreat to discuss what completion regarding death
really is. It was a safe place for the women who attended to complete
some difficult life experiences for themselves.
That is what The Retreat© is; a place for women, at director level and above, to be so they can feel the support of other women and personally and professionally grow from that experience.
No matter how successful you are there is always more to develop and grow.

OBSERVING
Observing is a WMF® graduate program that includes
attending the workshop and looking at how far
you have come since taking the workshop. It also helps
you to keep the learnings you got as impactful as they were
when you took
the workshop.
The side benefit of Observing is supporting the women
attending by modeling what it is to complete the workshop.
If you would like to Observe any of the community based
workshops in 2011 all you need to do is contact us to make
a reservation and pay the $250 fee. Seats in each
workshop are limited and are given on a first come
first serve basis.
Four Graduates in Europe Observed the Frankfurt workshop
last year.
You do not have to be at all three days of the workshop.
You can be at one day or several or you can come for an afternoon.
The schedule is up to you when you Observe.
Some Graduates bring their workshop buddies with them
to Observe and some bring their old notebooks!
