And how does this show up in your business?
“The Bitch.
The woman who makes things happen without doing damage. The Harlot. The woman whose sensuality is not used to manipulate, but rather to express her profound connection to all of life and its source. She has also had the time to develop and refine erotic moves that younger women have yet to learn.The Crone. The woman who has constant access to a depth of practical wisdom younger women haven’t had time to develop.
Each of these uncommon beings lives from an aspect of the feminine that is often left either undeveloped, or underdeveloped. As a deeper exploration of each reveals, all are available to every woman.”
Considering Your Life Purpose:
Now, consider the above descriptions of the bitch, the crone and the harlot. Which one do you resonate with most? Least?
In my observations and in work with clients, I find that many (but not all) women seem most comfortable with the crone energy. However, are you willing to access your inner bitch (what fun to say that!) and take action on your inner guidance? And, are you willing to be sexy, alive, wild? Does you wear clothes that flatter you? Speak with confidence? Walk with a sway of having been there and done that?
Now imagine being able to access action/bitch, wisdom/crone and creative passion/harlot all at once! That, honestly, is my personal quest. So when Susan crossed my path, it felt like an answer to a silent prayer, a prayer I didn’t even know I’d been making.
Which energy does your life need more of now? How will this more fully express your Life Purpose?
Considering Your Business:
Amanda told me she wanted to start her own business after her husband passed away suddenly. With the Life Purpose as the Visionary Paid Healer, she wanted to start her own healing business to help women heal their relationship with money through body work.
Although she could see her successful practice in her mind’s eye, and feel the urgency of her soul to move into action, she found she didn’t trust her ability to take action. She didn’t want to “be a bitch” and hurt anyone’s feelings. The key here is that feelings will probably get hurt anyway if you actually DO something, because other people have expectations you couldn’t possibly fulfill. Secondly, Amanda felt dowdy after losing her husband and thought she’d ‘wait’ to start her business until she lost some more weight. Hmmm…
A little ‘bitch’ and a little ‘harlot’ energy could give Amanda the courage and fortitude she requires to take her dream from vision to reality.
What energy could make your business come to life? Let us know by please posting your answer to this question: “Which type is most you right now – the bitch, the crone or the harlot? And tell us why if you dare!

GREAT blog!
Fun, disobedient post Baeth!
Since I’m Giulietta the Muse, Inspirational Rebel, I’ll LEAP up to the life purpose plate here and leave a daring comment.
Once several decades ago when I left my parental home to go out clubbing my mother said, “You look like a harlot.” I know I’ve still got the playful/seductive vibe going on. And I love to start grassroots movements in my community by empowering others, so I’m the good bitch of the North. The wisdom of the crone has come with being on the planet for awhile. I’ve learned to let go rather than hang on if I want to have a dear, dazzling, dashing life.
Honestly, I need a tad more good bitch of the north in my biz. I know there are men and women out there who want to be more rebellious & more disobedient in order to change their lives and the world for the better. I’d like to come up with a few more rebellious, off the beaten path ways to help them find me! Thx.

See you in Tucson!
Hey Baeth….I think I have been working to develop that BITCH energy for a while, making things happen without doing harm! I have astronger connection to the old crone!!!! Sounds like you need all 3
See you Wednesday

This is the first time I’ve ever commented in a blog like this, but I’ve got to tell you at 56 I’m all about being the bitch and harlot. Why, well I’ve been nice and lived as I thought I was “supposed” to for too long and it is time to remember who I am and what I’m supposed to be doing here on earth (obviously I have not have my hands analyzed) which I’m pretty sure is to be a healer. (I work with the Tarot and Reiki.) As far as the harlot, I’ve never felt pretty, or sexy, or desirable or let me body just “feel” the beauty of the world around me, and lets just say I’m done with that as well. I’ve also ordered the book and cannot wait to read it!
