Who Would You Be if You Were Not Your Gender?


Could you be stuck in your gender box?

Working on the #NoMoreBoxes Movement has made us realise how the gender box is holding so many of us back from fully pursuing our passion in life.

In one of our NoMoreBoxes event, a lady in her mid 60's started crying uncontrollably. She shared with us that all she had ever wanted in her life was to be a concert pianist, but never pursued her passion. Going through our simple process she understood on a deep level how being trapped in her gender box had been holding her back all her life.

Later she told me: "I've been in a box, well in a coffin. Having that spontaneous opportunity at your book launch to step back, take a look at my box and move through it was a truly magical and once in a lifetime experience for me. It changed everything. I have more space now to be a woman, without being afraid that I might lose my man by pursuing my passion for music."

It all starts with awareness.

Spot your box - Open up your box - Unpack your box -

... and even unfold it and recycle!

Ask yourself:

Who would I be if I was not conditioned to be my gender, race, religion, status, education or sexual orientation?
