The Lasso of Truth
In Rising to Feminine Power: The Lasso of Truth, author Josephine Palermo explores the individual journeys of women who have discovered true feminine power in their work and life.
Through honest and inspiring stories told by almost 30 women in their own authentic voices, you will learn about how these women from various backgrounds and cultures experience power and disempowerment throughout their lives as leaders, mothers, grandmothers, wives, divorcees, sisters and the many other roles women play in their communities and industries.
Bringing a deep understanding of gender psychology and gender equality, Dr Palermo explores how women can use a positive feminine lens to create and build shared, collective power in place of individualistic power. Weaving real life stories with academic research and studies on women in power, she contextualises these lessons from social science to learn how and why women use and struggle with power.
In Rising to Feminine Power, Dr Palermo encourages us to take a stance, put our fists on our hips and channel our Wonder Woman with the Lasso of Truth to understand and unveil all those things that have been hidden from us. To be inspired to make the smallest next step into your own personal power.

When it comes to expressing power, in society, women are often only given two choices. One is hypermasculinity, and the other is to be passive feminine. But only women who know how to balance these two polarities are able to create amazing lives for themselves.
We're going to look at a third way to wield your unique and strong femininity!
Every woman carries within her an innate source of strength, intuition, and resilience. However, the demands of our modern world often lead us astray, leaving us feeling disconnected, frazzled, and drained. Our retreat calls you back to that inner wellspring, to rekindle the fire that lies within, and to embrace the exquisite power and wisdom of being a woman. Through an array of workshops, heart-to-heart discussions, and sacred rituals, you'll have the space to honor every facet of your feminine self, embracing both vulnerabilities and strengths alike. As a collective of women, we'll rewrite those stories, elevating one another toward a new paradigm of empowerment!
