We're Not Going Back: Global Wins for Women This Week

It’s been a wild ride lately for women’s rights around the globe. With every backward bill or bigoted speech, it can feel like progress is on shaky ground.

But if we zoom out and look to the big picture, we’re not just holding the line, we’re pushing the limits. 

From courtroom clapbacks to red carpet reckonings, women and allies everywhere are sending a crystal-clear message: we see it, we’re not afraid, andwe’re not backing down.

Science and Stats That Change the Narrative

Honorable Mention: The Audacity of the Patriarchy

Trump Wants to Be Pope, Apparently: Following the death of Pope Francis, Donald Trump casually suggested he'd like to be the next Pope.

Why This Week Matters

These wins aren’t random. They’re the product of relentless pushback, unapologetic visibility, and fierce collective action. Whether it’s corporations refusing to cave to anti-DEI noise, courts blocking patriarchal power plays, or people marching through Rome with pride and purpose, the momentum is unmistakable.

This week proves that when women rise, the status quo doesn’t stand a chance. So to anyone clinging to outdated ideals or dreaming of a regressive rewind: bless your heart, but we’ve got other plans. And no, we’re not going back. Not now. Not ever.

Never miss the good news.

The Sacred Success Code: Unapologetically Replace Hustle with Divine Feminine Flow

As the patriarchal business model crumbles, you have an opportunity to reclaim your divine feminine power. The Sacred Success Code reveals a path where you can lead powerfully while honoring your divine feminine essence. 

Five sacred sessions in bite sized pieces, each shorter than your lunch break

The Founder: Tamara Rose

Tamara Rose is a visionary leader in feminine business transformation who has walked the path from masculine burnout to divine feminine leadership. Her own journey of awakening to feminine power within a masculine business world uniquely qualifies her to guide others through this sacred transformation.

After years of operating in the patriarchal business model—experiencing burnout, health challenges including Graves Disease, and financial struggle, Tamara discovered that true success comes not from pushing harder but from leading from her divine feminine capacities. By reclaiming her feminine essence, she healed her thyroid completely (defying medical expectations), transformed $80,000 of debt into a 7-figure business, and created a life of abundance without sacrifice.

With over 15 years and 20,000+ hours guiding overworked women, Tamara has developed The Sacred Success Code—a proven approach that identifies the generations of patriarchal conditioning, awakens your intuition, and activates your authentic feminine power. Her work isn't about superficial mindset shifts or traditional business strategy—it's about fundamentally transforming your relationship with your self and your success.

Her approach honors both your strategic brilliance and your feminine essence. When you work with her, you enter a new paradigm where hustle is unapologetically replaced by flow, where success and sacred divinity coexist in perfect harmony.
