June 29 2026

Hello friends! Welcome to this month’s episode of the Empowered Together podcast and video show on Inkandescent Women magazine — as well as InkandescentRadio.com and Inkandescent.tv

Today, we are thrilled to talk with one of our new members: Paula Petry, PhD, founder of Divine Design Activation — Where Science Meets Your Soul’s Intelligence.

Before we jump into our Q&A, here’s a little about this truly amazing woman.

Paula says, “Divine Design Activation is a grounded, experiential pathway that restores embodied clarity, self-trust, and purposeful leadership by reconnecting you with your body’s innate guidance system and your soul’s original design. Until we retrieve the buried content, we cannot improve our lives.”

Be sure to listen to and watch our interview where we talk with Kylene about:

  • Let’s start at the beginning. What inspired you to create Divine Design?
  • How has your organization grown?
  • Who are your clients?
  • You say we are not troubled by what we are aware of, and that unconscious perception of what we’ve done and what has been done to us is relentless. Tell us more!
  • You just finished a powerful retreat and are embarking on more. Give us details.
  • Horses are a part of your work. They are incredibly powerful, intuitive creatures. How do you incorporate equine healing into your work?
  • One thing that I have heard you say centers on the importance of safety and the fact that we recognize that we are all mirrors for each other. How do your workshops help with that?
  • How can people sign up for your events and learn more about your services?

Don’t miss it!

Join us on July 14 at 7pm ET, when we’ll be hosting a webinar featuring Paula, where she will share her insights and wisdom — and you can join us to ask questions! Register for your free ticket at PaulaPetry.Eventbrite.com

November 6, 2024: A Note from Cynthia de Lorenzi, founder of the international women’s networking group Success in the City, and Hope Katz Gibbs, founder of Inkandescent® PR & Publishing Co., and producer of the Truly Amazing Women show

Dearest friends — We welcome you to a new series in our Truly Amazing Women show. It is born from conversations that we had with dozens of our friends following the results of the November 2024 election. Understandably, many women are feeling deeply unsettled, anxious, or fearful. The planned changes carry significant implications. So we are expanding Cynthia’s Success in the City project and launching a group to bring all of us together in a caring community — Empowered Together

Our goal: We are creating a safe space to bring together Calm, Connected, Compassionate, Changemakers. We believe these are the new 4Cs of millions of beautiful diamonds we will send out to sparkle, shine, and keep peace in the world.

To start us off, we hosted our first Zoom Mastermind meeting on Saturday, Nov. 16. These will be held monthly, and each session will be a safe space for reflection, solidarity, and empowerment. The forum will be open to sharing concerns that we plan to channel into meaningful action, personal growth, and positive change for their communities.

Have questions? Connect with Hope and Cynthia. We want to hear what you are thinking, feeling, and dreaming about the future.
