CLAIMED — Feminine/Masculine Polarity. Femininity. Embodiment‪.‬ Anna Rova

How do we manage a business in a feminine way?

This morning in my embodiment practice I have stumbled upon a MASSIVE REALISATION about how as women we might build business in a way that feels hood to us, attracts the clients we want and also creates GREAT CASH (cause we want that too, right?) 💸💰

This approach is, obviously, very different to how men build businesses and make money.

I’ve been exploring the subjects of feminine/feminized/feminist economy and researching and reading different viewpoints on this (a lot of it is not very though out or grounded or makes sense) and this morning it landed for me.

Now, this might not be a massive revelation for you (it’s kind or common sense when you think about it) but it was a HUGE EMBODIED realization for me

What I realised and embodied (the difference between knowing or realizing something in your head is VERY DIFFERENT) to embodying it and, therefore, fully living it in your body.

Anyhow, what I realized is this: to build a business that feels good and brings lots of cash for me as a woman, I have to be primarily be operating from FULLNESS.

This means that when I send emails, social media posts, get on sales calls, do meetings or anything else in my business it has to come from a place of FULLNESS.

Fullness for me means being aligned with who I am and what I want.

Fullness means being in a pleasurable relationship with my work. Excited and curious about my clients, my message, my body of work. Excited to go deeper. Excited to tell everyone about it. Excited to show up. Feeling delicious and juiced up about this thing that I’m doing!

In my body this feels like liquid gold in my whole body.

And so my primary job as a feminine business owner is not to learn and apply tactics and doing things but to actually be in constant exploration of this FULLNESS. And when I’m not feeling full and excited I need to take a step back and realign and see what is this about, what doesn’t feel right and how to change and pivot and why.

Hey girlfriend, here I (vulnerably) share how I plan to launch my new mastermind Claimed X.



Hope you enjoy it!

In this episode, I talk about the challenges and difficulties that business owners face and how I have dealt with them over the past five years. Here are the takeaways:


Share from a powerful place rather than a vulnerable one when producing content.
When facing challenges in business, focus on the lessons and growth opportunities they present.
Process and release difficult emotions through embodiment practices.
Maintain professionalism and avoid reacting with anger or blame when dealing with difficult clients or team members.
Recognize that challenges are a normal part of business and personal development.
Trust in your work and stay aligned with your purpose, even when faced with setbacks or client pull-outs.

It's been two weeks since I published another episode on the Claimed podcast.



Not because I have not recorded anything. (I did record four episodes in a day last week!)



It's because I'm going through an intense period of launching my new program Claimed X and I simply didn't have time.



But finally, I managed to upload the next episode and am super excited to share it with you.



The new episode called "Teaching from Scars & Learning From Female Mentors" is already up on Spotify and all other platforms.



Have you listened to it yet? If yes, curious to hear your thoughts!



In this episode, I share the following:



- Uncovering your shadow side and exploring the constrictions and fears that hold me back in business



- Teaching from my scars, not my wounds, and embracing vulnerability to create a deeper connection with my audience



- Finding a new way of doing business that feels good and authentic, integrating both feminine and masculine energies



- Being SO TIRED of listening to men when it comes to business advice and CRAVING female voices, mentorship and wisdom



Hope you enjoy!

I decided to share a personal message with you about some big changes that are happening in my life in the next few months:


I got my Australian Citizenship which is a HUGE deal for me and my family
We're moving to Bali in July!
But first, we're going on a bit of a European tour around Italy, Romania and Greece.

In this episode I share the logistics behind these changes (as well as how much does it cost to maintain a lifestyle in Australia vs Bali) and how I'm thinking about it.



Hope you enjoy the episode. If you do, please let me on on Instagram here.

In this episode I share a powerful moment for me based on a recent conversation I had with a prospective client. It is all about boundaries: how we hold them and how we communicate with them.
