The Modern Phoenix When Will It Be Enough? Reclaiming Your Inner 'Enoughness' in a Capitalist World
In this soulful December episode, Gervase pulls back the curtain on her decision to shift The Modern Phoenix Podcast to a monthly publishing schedule and the deeper question underneath it: When will it be enough?
From business to motherhood to Black Friday shopping spirals, she explores how capitalism and patriarchy train women to measure our value by how much we do, produce, and perform—and why it will never feel like enough if we're only chasing external metrics.
You'll be invited into a simple, somatic practice to reconnect with your body, your soul, and your inner sense of "I am already enough," so you can move through the holidays and the new year with more intention, gentleness, and grounded power.
Listen to this episode to discover:
-
Why Gervase is moving the podcast to a monthly schedule (and why that's a power move, not a retreat).
-
How capitalism quietly lives inside your thoughts, to-do lists, and sense of worth.
-
The difference between "doing more" and actually feeling like enough.
-
A simple hand-on-heart embodiment practice you can use anytime to come back to yourself.
-
How reclaiming your inner enoughness changes the way you parent, work, and make decisions.
This episode is for you if…
You are a woman who has tried to earn her worth by doing more—at work, at home, in your business, in motherhood—and it still never feels like enough. You're tired of the hamster wheel but scared to step off. You're craving a softer, more embodied way of living and leading that doesn't require you to abandon yourself to be "successful." You want to feel grounded, resourced, and okay inside your own body—no matter what your inbox, bank account, or holiday calendar looks like.
