Rebuilding The Feminine Network

The power of women is akin to the mycelial network. For years, we thought the trees were the dominant force, absorbing light and growing tall. But what really sustains them? The unseen, underground network of mycelium. It connects everything, distributing resources where they are needed, warning of danger, maintaining equilibrium. It doesn’t discriminate. It doesn’t operate through dominance. It ensures survival by sustaining the whole.

This is real power—the ability to give life and to absorb death. And that is women’s power. Yet, our society has built its structures on the illusion that men are the nodes of power, when in reality, they are the impulses traveling between the nodes. Women are the network. The world is a conversation between women, spoken through men. This surprises people, but once you see it, you can’t unsee it.

So the question becomes: How do we rebuild the network? How do we ensure that it can tend to life and absorb death? It starts with every woman knowing her own power. If she doesn’t, the network in that area dies. Without the mycelial network, the forest collapses. The trees, believing themselves sovereign, wither in their isolation. The soil depletes. And just as our barren soil can no longer absorb carbon, a world where women are cut off from each other becomes barren of empathy, connection, and true power.

The solution isn’t complicated. You restore the network. You restore the flow. When one has excess, she gives. When one is in need, she receives. There’s no hoarding. No scarcity mindset. It’s a universal basic income of well-being.
