Welcome to the Spiritual Hustler Podcast. I'm your host, Jessica Zweig, multi seven figure serial entrepreneur, best selling author and branding and business coach. And this is a show where we are redefining the word hustle. Reclaiming our true feminine nature of magnetism and putting down the self judgments and shame around loving to work and making a lot of money at it. On this show, you're going to learn how to stop hustling and start spiritually hustling by pressing play. You are now now part of a new movement of women who don't hustle for money. We hustle for meaning. We don't hustle from lack. We hustle for love. We don't hustle from survival. We hustle for humanity's thriving. We hustle toward healing the ancestral programming of fear and step into a new understanding of safety in the body to receive. This shift isn't going to only heal your life. It's going to make you a whole lot richer too. This is the Spiritual Hustler podcast.

And I love you and I see you. Thank you for seeing me, sister. And speaking of sister, we're going to talk about sisterhood today and specifically the sister wound, because I don't know about you guys, but the hardest, darkest, most shattering heartbreaks of my life did not come from men, but came from women. Friends, best friends, all the way back to middle school. It has definitely been a karmic thread in my life. I've had women reject me, dump me, break up with me, betray me a lot in my life. Not so much anymore. I have definitely alchemized that karmic thread. And I have the cleanliest tribe of high vibe women in my life. In my circle, I just don't have any of that energy, actually mostly anywhere. But for a long time, I did. And to be frank, those heartbreaks impacted me in a way that still remains. And we've just gotta start by asking why, like, why are women so mean to each other? And I know that this is not a Jessica's W experience. I know as I'm talking, you're probably nodding, being like, yeah, me too, girl. Whether it was the middle school mean girls or the workplace competition that you feel, or even the clicks you see in adulthood. All right? But there is a much deeper reason to why this is happening, why it is somewhat of an epidemic amongst the feminine collective. And it's not personal, actually. It's not about her. That girl that crushed your heart. It's not about you who maybe didn't do something wrong or did. It's not about the conflict between these archetypes of modern day women. It's actually completely rooted in our history as women, ancient history. And the survival and the trauma that we have had on an ancestral level. Because for hundreds of thousands of years I have said this, we lived in a matriarchal society. And when the patriarchy was born about 4,000 years ago, systems were put in place intentionally to not only disempower women spiritually, religiously, culturally, politically, but to divide women by stripping them of their collective power. And as women became More and more disempowered. There was only so much room for women to be safe. And women policed each other's behavior for survival. From the beginning of the patriarchy. There is a very real witch wound. Centuries between the years 1200 ish to 1700 ish. When you really think about it, you guys, it's not that long ago, but for hundreds and hundreds of years, millions. That's millions with an M. Millions of women were burned at the stake and tortured in ways I don't even want to talk about out loud. For being women. Women are magical. Women are intuitive, women are spiritual, women are sexual and sensual and coded and connected to cosmic intelligence as much as the intelligence of the earth. We have always been the way showers of humanity. And that was a massive, massive threat. That power to the patriarchy that wanted to capitalize control based on religion and territory and hierarchy. And centuries of women began betraying other women under fear of that persecution. And this consciousness of better her than me, better she gets slain and rejected and casted out than me, it became embedded in our DNA as a survival code. And this survival code, quite literally a code in our DNA written into our genetics, was passed down through our maternal line. Because it's not that hard to look and see the truth that mean girls were often raised by mean mothers. And those mothers were raised by their mothers who inherited that survival code from their mother. And it goes back. And it goes back. And it goes back and it goes back.

And these women who really didn't know any different because it was what they grew up in, it was what they inherited, it was how they were raised, and it was what was living inside of their bodies, became mothers who were raised in scarcity and competition and passed it down unconsciously. And so we grow up as well meaning little girls with sweet, innocent hearts. And we go to school. And this innate desire to connect with other women, to trust other women, is actually primal. It's a primal desire and need to be safe inside of a circle. Right? We are tribal by nature. Humanity was born in tribes before we separated out into borders of states and countries and colonization. And when that bond of safety is broken, it cuts deeper than a romantic heartbreak. This is why the feminine friendship wound hurts the most. Because when we are rejected by women, it is a rejection of belonging, it is a rejection of tribe, it is a rejection of identity. And this psychological wounding manifests itself in modern day through not necessarily being cast out of the tribe and left to go live in the woods. As painful and horrifying as that was, it is manifesting itself as gossip and jealousy and silent competition and judgment and rejection which lives inside of our bodies as the same similar wound is being casted out into the woods and abandoned to fend for ourselves. It's that deep. And so I just wanted to break down where this is coming from, why this has been so intense for so many of us, how deeply, far back it goes. And I know that you're listening to my podcast because you are not that kind of woman. You lead from love and sisterhood and belonging and connection and support. But we have to break the pattern as women who are waking up. This is how we heal. Not just at an individual level, but at a collective level. And the first step is honestly awareness. Just really recognizing in your own self because we're all human, or recognizing in others when this happens, that when judgment or comparison is casted, whether again from you or from someone onto you, it's actually not personal. As personal as it feels, it's not. It's ancestral. It's programming. It is the matrix. I don't know if anybody recently watched the movie K Pop Demon Hunters. Didn't expect me to go there. A really interesting movie about the light in the dark. And it's like, about a girl band that represents the light and a boy band that's like demonic. And demons just are hungry for life, for souls. And so because they're so empty, they are going to kill whoever they can. It's not personal. They're soulless, they're hurting, they're empty, they're in pain. And so when some woman is unkind to you, your opportunity is to look deeper, to have a deeper awareness of where it's really coming from. Now the next step is to reclaim. To really ask yourself if you were hurt by another woman or another woman is in her own hurt, to really get to the bottom of where it's coming from, to name it. What part of you was really hurt in this dynamic? Is it your fear of abandonment? Is it your fear of rejection? Is it your loneliness? Is it your tendency to take up a lot of space? Is it your hunger for love and acceptance? But what part of you is really hurt in the dynamic? To name it, to reclaim it, and to bring that part home? And the real ninja move is to be able to identify in her where that is really coming from and send her a blessing that she brings that part of herself home too. And the step beyond reclaiming is to embody it. To start showing up as the woman you wish you had when you were growing up. And to really create conscious sisterhood circles. To be the woman that invites a whole bunch of incredible women out to dinner or into your home or even is that woman? This is what I did when I got to Nashville, you guys. I was new in town. I was just go up to my friends or new people I was meeting at set event or dinner or small gathering, and I would just like look at a woman that I connected with on a heart level. And I'd be like, hi, here's my number. Will you invite me to things? Because I'm new here and I'm lonely, and I would love to make more connection. And guess what? Some of those women have become my closest friends because they saw my vulnerability and they met it with me because they probably experienced that too, and leaned in and I leaned back and I created a conscious sisterhood circle in a very short amount of time. To really be careful and mindful of your thoughts and your words. Words are wands. To constantly be checking yourself. Am I speaking from love? Am I speaking from judgment? Am I speaking from acceptance? Or am I speaking from comparison? Am I speaking from empowerment? Or am I speaking from disempowerment? And to remember that ruptures in sisterhood are always going to happen. Like, it's just what happens when we get intimate with other women. But repair is only possible when we show up and meet those conversations with love and humility and openness and not defensiveness. We don't ghost. We don't peace out, tap out. We certainly don't gossip. Gossip is gross. One of the lowest vibrational aspects of this human experience, to be honest. And when we repair rupture, when we really stay in relationship with one another, and obviously when someone's abusive or treats you in a way that's truly traumatic, absolutely you have sovereignty and agency to say goodbye to that relationship. But we have to remember that most of the time we're operating out of this old operating system of trauma. It's ancestral. And to give yourself and other women grace. Because when we can move through the rupture and truly repair, with that as our foundation, we alchemize the sister wound. We heal the feminine collective. It is so important. That's an understatement. It's. It's everything right now. It's so critical. So when we create this healing on an individual level in these relationship containers that we have, it impacts the collective, which impacts the planet that is hurting so bad from all of this rupture and all of the division and all of this total pillaging of the beauty of this feminine being that we live upon. And we are pieces of her. I wrote about this in my book the Light Work, in the chapter called Sisterhood. Sorry, I'm getting emotional, but I'm not sorry where I. I talk about Gaia, the planet, this, Mother Earth, and how we, by virtue of being women on this planet, pieces of Gaia. We are daughters of Mother Earth. Each and every one of us are daughters of her. And that makes us all sisters. It makes us all sisters. True sisters. So the next time you see any woman, I don't care what she looks like, how old she is, what she does for a living, the color of her skin, her sexual orientation. I want you to just take a minute, say to yourself silently, that woman, because she's a woman, is a sister. Doesn't mean you have to be best friends with her. Doesn't even mean you have to have a conversation. It's just a code that we get to rewrite based on our own consciousness. When we heal the sister wound, we don't only free ourselves. We free our daughters. We free our mothers who came before us. We free every woman who will come after us. So I invite you today, starting now, to show up as the sister yes you always longed for, but the sister that this planet needs. I love you all so much. Thank you for being here. Thank you for being a sister to me. I feel you, and I love you. And I see you. And together, we really do rise. I'll see you guys on the next episode of the Spiritual Hustler podcast. Bye, guys. Sam.
