Company

A business can be a model for a new social & economic order.

The good news: I found a website that explores what a feminine economy would look like and how to use those values to guide business decisions. The bad news is that I found it on the Wayback Machine. I've reached out to founder Jennifer Armbrust to get updates. If you can help me connect with her I'd appreciate it.

The site does still hold a brilliant document named 12 Principles. She calls it a "Framework For The Practical Application Of The Tenets Of The Feminine Economy." It's brilliant, lovely and inspiring.

"5. EMBODY YOUR VALUES.

"Cultivate your inner authority. Act with intention. Innovate new business practices rooted in your principles. Making choices in alignment with your values is the root of healthy self-esteem. Thriving economically while living your values is deeply disruptive to the current social and economic order."
