I Call Myself a FEMINIST. Not because I Hate Men. Because I Love TRUTH.

You may have noticed… I call myself a feminist.

Not because I hate men. But because I love truth.

And the truth is… when you really look at the world we’re living in… it tells a very clear story.

THE REALITY WE’RE LIVING IN

😡 Globally, 1 in 3 women have experienced physical or sexual violence.

😡 Every single day, 137 women are killed by someone in their own family.

😡 Less than 40% of women who experience violence seek help. Fewer than 10% go to the police.

This isn’t rare. It isn’t isolated.

And it isn’t just a “women’s issue.”

It’s a human reality.

And it doesn’t stop there.

😡  Women earn, on average, 20% less than men globally, while carrying 75% of unpaid care work.

😡  2.4 billion women still don’t have equal economic rights. 

😡  In some places, women require permission to travel, work, simply ‘be’ in public, or even marry.

So when I say I’m a feminist…

I’m not making a political statement.

I’m responding to reality.

WHY I CHOOSE TO FOCUS ON WOMEN

I don’t focus on women because I believe women are better.

I focus on women because women have been systematically held back.

Because so many women (myself included, in different ways) have learned to survive in systems that were not designed with us in mind.

To shrink.

To silence ourselves.

To override our bodies.

To question our truth.

And that’s what my work is here to change.

Not by fighting men. But by supporting women.

WHAT MY WORK IS REALLY ABOUT

RISE & THRIVE Holistic Empowerment.

EMPOWER YOUR VOICE.

THE WILD WISDOM WAY.

These spaces exist for a reason.

They are spaces where women can:

• Feel safe

• Be seen and heard

• Reconnect to their body’s wisdom

• Create authentically

• Choose freely

Because when a woman feels safe in herself, everything changes.

Her voice changes.

Her relationships change.

Her choices change.

Her life changes.

And that ripple matters.

LET ME BE CLEAR: I DO NOT HATE MEN

I LOVE the masculine.

I deeply value grounded, present, conscious masculine energy.

The kind that protects without controlling.

Leads without dominating.

Holds without overpowering.

I have incredible men in my life.

Men who listen, who are open, who are doing their own work.

This is not about division.

It's about bridge-building.

FEMINISM, AS I LIVE IT

Feminism, to me, is not about women rising I men.

It’s about dismantling the systems that never allowed true balance to exist in the first place.

It’s about creating a world where:

• Women don’t have to harden to survive

• Men don’t have to dominate to feel worthy

• Power is not something we fight over

• Choice is something we all have access to

A world where we co-create.

Where the feminine and masculine meet… fully, freely, and consciously.

Not in competition.But in collaboration.

THE ROLE OF SISTERHOOD

Sisterhood is not anti-masculine.

Women’s circles, shared spaces, and feminine-centered work are not about exclusion.

They are about restoration.

They are places where women remember who they are… together.

Where it becomes safe to be seen.

Safe to be expressed.

Safe to soften.

Safe to rise.

And from that place, we don’t disconnect from men. We relate to them differently.

More clearly.

More honestly.

More powerfully.

AN INCLUSIVE TRUTH

While my work speaks directly to women, it honours all people navigating gender, including trans and non-binary individuals, who are also reclaiming safety, voice, and sovereignty in their own ways.

Because at the core of all of this is something universal:

The desire to feel at home in yourself.

The right to choose your life.

The freedom to express who you truly are.

THIS IS WHY I DO WHAT I DO

Because the world we’ve inherited still carries imbalance.

Because women are still finding their way back to themselves.

Because when women rise in truth, embodiment, and self-trust…it doesn’t take anything away from men.

It creates the possibility for something better for everyone.

So yes…

I call myself a feminist.

Not because I stand against men.

But because I stand for a world where we all get to RISE & THRIVE together.

With so much love,

Stephanie Kittell
