The Feminine Light Journey is a unique proprietary model of women’s mature identity and development, a meta-consciousness of womanhood, that transforms our knowledge of ourselves to live more effective lives.

The Feminine Light Journey revolutionizes women’s ability to establish a collective consciousness of identity and create a new language from which to communicate. It consists of nine Passages of Enlightenment.

The Feminine Light Journey establishes for yourself The Feminine Light that is within you!

i-We is for women in the United States and around the world who want to create a better life, who yearn for Enlightenment and emotionally are seeking:

• Fulfillment: This woman wants to receive and give more in life. Women in this category may have a solid foundation for their happiness, sense of worth and purpose, yet may want to understand why or how to live it more fully. These women may want more of an intellectual and philosophical foundation for their identity or simply to be “in the know.” Also, they may need to be leaders, to contribute more to the world encompassing a broader scale of participation or be more effective in their community. i-We affirms these contributions.
• Empowerment: This woman wants to solve problems by finding solutions through increased self-esteem, self-worth, purpose, talents or joy. Women in this category may at times not feel seen, valued or valuable either personally or culturally. They can be disrespected, abused, abandoned or lost; happiness may be elusive, there may be just glimpses of happiness, little or no happiness. Many of these women are healing from divorce or trauma or are feeling overwhelmed by uncertainties, struggles or life’s workload. Some may need to learn how to feel safe and happy in their bodies while others strive to discover value, purpose, joy in respecting themselves and men in the world. These women may be fighters or defenders of worth. Strong capable women can benefit from having a broader understanding of their developmental journey, leading toward a deeper more empowered identity. i-We charts and provides a map for self-knowledge.
• Compassion: This woman wants to be healed through love and connection. Women in this category may want to connect with women and men to support and encourage one another and to find a common thread of humanity that bonds. However, some women in this category use emotions to demean. This behavior is a result of a damaged spirit due to experiences of power abuse or emotional neglect. These women often become abusive out of spite because they know no other way. To realize themselves as human beings in need of compassion is the starting point for healing spirit. The concept of respect must be learned to love well in the world. i-We nurtures a woman’s unique journey toward acceptance, love, and healing.
• Goodwill: This woman wants to foster goodwill through collaborating with other women in mutual appreciation and respect of a Sisterhood that honors, shares, and celebrates who we are as women. Women in this category may want to lead humanity by example, particularly as role models for girls and young women. i-We promotes the recognition of spiritual leadership.

You are important as a human being, and especially as a woman.   Women are the containers and source of life; the creators of meaning and through family and community, the vessels of love.  We are the muses, the messengers, and the catalyst for divine wisdom and joy.

You, as a woman, are a Leader of Spiritual Enlightenment for yourself and in guiding relationships: your family, your children, your communities, and your world. Relationships are shaped the way they are because of your worth, purpose, talents, wisdom, and joy!  The importance of YOU guides relationship toward mutual peaceful fulfillment.

No matter the family, society, and culture you are born into, your self-esteem and worth are the determining factors which influence the health of relationship. Learning to form, maintain, and manage your identity and support your spirit as a woman is paramount to the health of the world.

As a woman, the truth of your being as an expression of the fullness of spirit creates the meaning of your life.  The expansion of your love and joy through the security of wisdom kindles the fire of your own unique contributions to yourself, your relationships, and to the world.  The healing of your spirit then transmutes into the power that heals the world.

Reclaiming worth allows you to take the first step toward a healthy loving presence in relationship beginning with the most important relationship, the one with yourself.

i-We is offering The Feminine Light Journey and the first course The Feminine Light for Spiritual Leadership Passage as a stand alone three-month experiential program of Enlightenment. This Passage is offered as a singular course and is a prerequisite for all future Passages.

Our logo is a lotus. The lotus is one of the most ancient and deepest symbols of our planet. The lotus flower is viewed as a symbol of spiritual expansion and awakening. The lotus has its roots in earthly mud, but as it grows upward in aspiration toward the light, its petals open into a beautiful flower and embodies a spiritual meaning of ascension, Enlightenment or rebirth. The flower represents divine beauty and purity.

The logo also represents a Star Rose which reflects the rich history associated with the eight-pointed star and is a symbol associated with Innana who is considered the most prominent female deity in ancient Mesopotamia. As a goddess, Innana embodies the cycles of a woman’s life as well as love and death or the transformation of the soul while the meaning associated with rose is grace, joy, and appreciation.

Our tagline Happy Women, Happy, World  ™ is a reflection of “happy wife, happy life” which was coined by the comedian Jeff Allen, an aphorism for the “…joy derived from a healthy marriage” and is his registered trademark.

Our Leadership Program is mentored by visionary women established in the success of the implementations of their visions. This Program is conducted through an on-going roundtable of invited leaders, mentors, and life coaches as well as facilitated by a knowledgeable support team.

The Feminine Light Sisterhood term represents like-minded women who remember the worth of women and join one another through mutual respect as a force for good and peace.

Yes, because we know how important it is for us to feel appreciated and to receive tokens of esteem that benefit our lives. i-We is excited to share gifts with you that uplifts our lives together. Some of the gifts can be found under the Resources tab while others are more delightful surprises to anticipate and will be announced.

The Institute of Women’s Enlightenment is for women 18 years or older.

i-We is not for minors, however,  girls will receive the benefits from women becoming Enlightened role models for them.

Yes, i-We is for men, too!

i-We is for men who value understanding or want to realize the meaning of happy wife, happy life; “Happy Women, Happy World” and is a tribute to men who honor themselves.

The Feminine Light Journey Program is available to you to enhance your understanding of women as inspirational partners. You can experience this Program to establish your worth as men and as noble fathers shaping the world. Private Forums just for men are included in the Program.

It’s time for women to come into the consciousness of their worth and join forces with men who honor the spirit of women and together find greater peace and fulfillment.

The Feminine Light Programs are offered to the LGBTQQIA community. Although i-We expresses feminine and masculine distinctions in terms of a new partnership model for traditional gender roles, others whose sexual orientations may differ can also find clarity across the spectrum of gender-worth.

Our programs may assist you in discovering ways to better understand the nature of feminine and masculine polarities to experience the wonder of your life and to live more efficaciously.

The Feminine Light Programs are created to support people in their self-awakening. We all start with who we are now and grow into or mature into a fuller, more effective expression of our identity. There are no negative judgments about life only This process requires an ideal to reach along with an acceptance of who we are now.

Our Programs help you to discern who you are; we do not make negative judgments. This process requires an ideal to attain with an acceptance of who we are now.

That is the starting point.

Being a woman is the starting point of all of our Programs. That is the foundation upon which our Programs are built.

Spiritual leadership can be expressed in a variety of ways: for yourself, in your relationships or through a more expansive social role. Whatever the expression that is unique to you will become more apparent and useful in establishing your identity in relationship.

To clarify our individual purpose of this expression is one aspect of The Feminine Light Programs.

i-We can be described as a Gender Relations Movement 3.0 that incorporates the Feminist drive of women to live more effective lives. However, i-We traditionally honors women in their unique identity distinct from men.

Much of this work answers Betty Friedan’s “problem with no name” by identifying the problem.

Presently, i-We specifically bridges the “painful and confusing” gap Claire Zammit, Founder of a women’s movement “Feminine Power”, recognized. She said “…in spite of having so much ‘power’ in our lives,…(women) felt this very painful and confusing gap between the deeper potentials…for who we were as women, for the creative contribution, for the intimacy and connection of our relationships, and just for our overall experience of life.”

i-We respects Feminism and its historical basis. We do support activities organized on behalf of women’s rights, interests, and human equality, however, we believe that sexual equity better reflects the true nature of gender than that of equality.

i-We is a women’s personal development organization and hub spearheading the well-being of life. We are not a religion, a cult, nor a sect.

The foundation of  The Feminine Life Programs is based in Psychology and specifically in the field of Human Development through the Lifespan. i-We draws from the works of Carol Gilligan and Abraham H. Maslow, and with an additional emphasis on the works of Carl G. Jung, George A. Kelly, Carl R. Rodgers, Dr. Clark Moustakas, and Dr. Robert Shukraft.

We do believe that women and their lives are sacred.
