Embodying Sisterhood in Business

Article by Laura Marcos

Sisterhood lives anywhere a woman moves in integrity with her values and strengths, open and willing to witness, guide and empower others ~ because she recognizes the value of that within herself.

When I see women from different parts of the world marching or singing in unison, it’s a direct line to the heart. From one moment to the next you might find me in a river of tears colored with joy, relief and
compassion. 

The power of it. Women standing in the strength of surrendering to the power of solidarity. Women with their hearts aligned to the magnetic frequency of pure love. It is an awe-inspiring sensation that
feels as if it can unlock any door and whisk away any hurtful paradigms in our personal and professional worlds.

As beautiful as it sounds, is true sisterhood in our families and communities? What could happen if every woman in the world experienced this profound sensation simultaneously? Can women united literally heal social, economic and environmental injustice? 

Anyone that understands the power of vision boards can appreciate this image manifesting itself through a collective butterfly effect. Then the question becomes, “How can we awaken more caterpillars to the transformative power of sisterhood in alignment to the highest good? 

Said another way, how can we make the spirit of genuine connection so enticing that competition just fades into collaboration? Sisterhood circles, priestess schools, and women’s networks are all on the rise but many women are still learning what sisterhood means. Comparing and competing is so deeply ingrained in our cultural conditioning that for many women the concept of “sisterhood” is still a foreign concept. 

I myself did not truly understand the power of sisterhood until my late 20’s. As the only daughter of an immigrant family, the energy that ruled the household was survival. Mired in my own insecurities, I was a stranger to my own heart and could not be a “sister” to myself, much less another female. 

Yet the power of the sacred that lies within each of us kept knocking on my door. I kept opening to learn how to let go and embrace my true essence thanks to my friendships with women. Like warriors we chose to radically love each other, work through our differences and offer one another limitless mirrors through which to reflect and transmute our own shadows. It was not always easy but we were willing to do the “work” of helping each other find authentic harmony and empowerment. My gratitude for the women in my life knows no boundaries. From my peers to professors and mentors, woman have played instrumental role in shaping my presence.

Over time, I have come to embrace sisterhood like a language that any woman can communicate with. Women who have done “sisterhood work” can sense each other instantly. For us sisterhood is an outlook and a way of seeing the world. It is a mutual agreement we make to gaze upon each other through the best possible light. Regardless of social class, ethnicity, experience or even age, women meet at the heart and navigate in authenticity and service to each other from there.

Let’s face it. We need sisterhood! From the entertainment industry to education, healthcare, business and political realms--lying, manipulating, undermining, exploiting, and all sorts of harming are still rampant.
Caught in the wheelhouse of celebrity status, those fueled predominantly by money are in scarcity consciousness. They have yet to be touched by the healing and transformative power of sisters (and brothers) working together.

It is up to us to create this reality for all to witness--one woman at a time. We can begin by recognizing and
trusting our feelings everywhere we go. When we see wrongdoing, we don’t look the other way. In
sisterhood we create safe spaces to explore how we keep each other accountable to our highest purpose and potential. When we see someone bullied or excluded, sisterhood is the springboard for restoration and reformation. Sisterhood lives anywhere a woman moves in integrity with her values and strengths, open
and willing to witness, guide and empower others ~ because she recognizes the value of that within herself.

When you walk into a conference, a networking event, or community gathering, chose to embody the open and heart centered energy of sisterhood—with women and men. Keeping in mind that everyone is on their
journey and will not be able to meet you there, trust that through the law of resonance you will meet allies who embody or long for the same sense of solidarity—then the gift of sisterhood keeps growing!

It’s up to us to embody the power of sisterhood. It is up to us to teach our daughters and sons that this is a way of being is not only possible, but a healthy foundation for co-creating a just and equitable world where we all can know what it means to thrive in business and beyond. If you have yet to experience the magic of sisterhood—a kind of love that you can feel in the core of your soul for others to flourish with you--then come find me or another sister. Look us in the eye and let’s make this feeling and vision for humanity come alive
together.
