Do you know that in first century Jewish society a woman’s word was considered legally unreliable in court. One of the sacred text says:

“Any evidence which a woman gives is not valid, also they are not valid to bear witness.”
— Talmud, Rosh Hashanah 1:8

In practice, this meant:

→ Women could not testify in legal matters (criminal, financial, or religious disputes).

→ Their word was not sufficient to convict or defend someone in a court of law.

→ Their testimony was equated with that of slaves, minors, and the mentally ill (seen as lacking full rational capacity).

This wasn’t because women were considered evil—but because they were viewed as emotionally unreliable, overly impressionable, or not suited to public affairs in a male-dominated legal system.

Imagine that. Imagine your voice being so insignificant in your own life that, no one thought you had any contribution of worth to make. 

Even in the resurrection story when Mary ran to the (male) disciples to tell them the best news ever, Luke shows us the same thing: 

“But they did not believe the women, because their words seemed to them like nonsense.”
— Luke 24:11

This line reflects the cultural conditioning of the time—even Jesus’ male disciples who studied under him for 3 years doubted the women because their testimony carried no legal weight.

This is why in my mind Christ is such a revolutionary because – by appearing first to Mary Magdalene and sending her to tell the others (John 20:17–18), 

He:

→ Bypassed the male power structure

→ Entrusted a woman with the first apostolic commission

→ Made a woman the first preacher of the resurrection—the foundation of Christian faith

In essence:
He gave Mary the kind of credibility the legal and religious systems denied her. (Listen – I love him for that alone.)

But why is this relevant to you? 

This historical reality helps frame why so many women today still second-guess their authority and just how deeply the fear of being dismissed, disbelieved, or diminished is woven into women’s generational nervous systems.

Jesus’ validation of women’s voices is not just spiritual—it’s political, cultural, and revolutionary

For this reason, it is my goal to help you release the fear based identity cultivated by politics, culture and religion and step into the Divine perspective or your Love based identity. 

Here is the difference:

Fear-based Identity Symptoms to Reflect on:

  • Chronic self-doubt
  • Silencing your voice
  • Disconnection from your body
  • Money struggles
  • People-pleasing
  • Performative faith
  • Emotional suppression

Love-Based Identity—What It Looks Like

Qualities:

  • Rooted Self-Worth
  • Sacred Confidence
  • Embodied Freedom
  • Open-Hearted Receiving
  • Authentic Spirituality
  • Compassionate Relationships
  • Joyful Responsibility

Jesus didn’t wait for systems to approve women’s voices. He affirmed their authority before the world was ready to recognize it.

If you’ve ever felt dismissed, overlooked, or doubted—especially by religious or cultural systems that told you to stay small—you’re not imagining it.

But you’re also not powerless.

Because your voice was never meant to be silenced.
Your truth was never meant to be filtered through someone else’s permission.

And your witness—to your life, your worth, and your calling—is valid.
