Women are the greatest untapped natural resource in the world. - Mama Gena
Darling,
Just a quick little reminder…
I’m appearing on The Ricki Lake Show TODAY! (Check the “Where to Watch” section at the top right of Ricki’s website for showtimes in your area).
Watch this video for a sneak peak…
We’re having a little viewing party at The Palace this afternoon—I would love for you to join the celebration on Facebook and Twitter. Let me know your thoughts on the episode and be sure to use the hashtag #FriendsofRicki.
Stay tuned!
With so much love and pleasure,
Mama Gena
Darling,
There’s someone—or rather, five someones—I’m dying to introduce to you.
You have a lot in common with these women. They were each naturally gifted with tremendous beauty, brilliance, originality, passion, and sass. Full-blown goddesses from birth, basically.
And each of these women has used the technology of the Womanly Arts and tools to cultivate their natural talents and loft themselves to previously unimaginable heights.
It’s a little over the top, really. I’m talking motherhood that’s defined on your own terms and actually adds to your glow. Dancing through breast cancer with an army of sisters at your back. Shedding 20-30 pounds and seeing nothing but deliciousness in the mirror. Dropping the anger and going for what you want in your marriage. Waking up in the morning and looking forward to your job. Creating the kind of friendships that last a lifetime…

Darling,
It’s a funny thing about women.
Funny, wonderful, and frankly, perpetually irritating.
As successful as we are, as strong as we stand, as helpful and nurturing as we can be, we just don’t feel right unless we are really living in to the essential hot, molten core fire of being a woman.
If we ain’t flirting*, we ain’t living.
We limp along, glumly, victimized by every hap and mishap.
Pissed, hurt, disappointed, thinking “Is that all there is—really?’
Even if we go the distance and power through a sink full of dishes, run a fierce board meeting, or sit on the phone with a needy friend for an hour, we don’t feel proud and radiant like an Olympian who’s won the race. Rather, we feel fried, toasted, and wasted, ready to reach for the glass of wine and the jumbo sized Kit Kat bar. Not flush with renewed life and a sense of deep accomplishment.
When we don’t stand in our radiance, we feel like a cell phone that has run out of batteries—the casing is there, but nothing inside is working.
We can push every key, and throw the little device smack up against a wall—but if there is no juice, there is no juice, and that is the end of the story.
A woman is no different.
Unless she is a woman who knows her way around the Womanly Arts. These are a secret set of lost arts, finessed by the greatest women in history…
Stand back, sister.
Yo’ Mama is sounding the alarm and coming at you with guns blazing.
We are living in a state of GLOBAL IGNORANCE that has gone on waaaaay too long. Women are not taught how to get what we want. Yup. Not taught. Dontcha just feel, sometimes, like you are swinging at the Piñata of Life with a feather, rather than a razor sharp machete, which is designed to pop open all the goodies that you long for that are just out of reach?
I want you to have new tools, new science, and outstanding support to push you to the next level to make more money, to get more honest with your man (or find a good man in the first place), or lose those extra pounds you want to lose.
I know you want these things. And tickling them with a feather, rather than getting down with the machete you have been searching for, will never get you there. continue reading…
