[@syedaanjum896]

Excellent real thoughts sister that we as a woman should follow. Respect and love for you from my heart.

[@graceinthegarden9151]

As an older woman, I find myself learning from you. I (was) married to a military man 22 years (18 years ago) until he divorced me. During those years, I was alone A LOT physically raising 3 children. All close proximity in age. I learned I had to be a bit assertive during those years. Survival mode. I never remarried, but I never found a man who wanted to embrace being a true man. Now, I question whether I was the reason for that? In saying that, I am trying to become more feminine in my daily life. I also find my focus on God and family to have helped me go through these years alone. I truly no longer desire a relationship. However, it is nice on occasion when I dress a little more feminine to have a "few" men be respectful towards me. Thank you for teaching an older lady something necessary. God bless.

[@nannag5801]

❤🙏🙏❤

[@agnieszkakarasiewicz1106]

💗

[@goatpebar6353]

@ graceinthgarden9151 I can so relate to your comment. It was 3 husbands later and alot of which Lea spoke about herself, that I finally found my Godly husband and found Christ ❤ Changed my life !

[@kathieswan3830]

I too am an "older woman"; graduated high school in the middle '70's. Married a law enforcement/Vietnam Vet. He became a long haul trucker. I don't remember what "feminine" feels like.

[@graceinthegarden9151]

@kathieswan3830 I understand. Perhaps we should allow ourselves a few moments a day to find peace within ourselves and, for that time, let go of having to "stay on top" of absolutely everything? Just 10 minutes a day would help. God bless.

[@apl1515]

When I accepted Christ into my life, He began to change me from a “pro-choice” feminist, agnostic and ardent democrat btw, to a new creation: a woman who accepts God’s views on personal, spiritual and political issues. I am now pro-life, pro woman, pro God. He essentially changed all of my beliefs and I am so grateful. Great job speaking on this in such a lovely way. 🙏🏼💕

[@Motherhubbard170]

welcome to the forever family of God

[@LittleHouseOnTheMountain]

All of heaven rejoices at your salvation my sister. So glad I will get to meet you in His coming kingdom ❤

[@acp8760]

Ew. I get major ick over comments like this. God gave us brains to use. We are supposed to support and love one another. Worshipping the republican God ($$$$$) and denying moms life saving healthcare is not anything to be proud of. YUCK.

[@sharon-ge4zk]

​@@acp8760supporting Planned Parenthood with big ($$$$$) from aborted baby parts isn't women's healthcare . Do some research and learn how deceived you are. May God help you to understand 🕊️

[@radiantchristina]

Soooo many young women need to hear this message. I pray it reaches multitudes 💞

[@tscarletespin2261]

Amen! I agree! ❤

[@adelagarcia6416]

Good morning! I will be 70 years old in a few days. Your video brought me warmth, clarity and joy as I move forward embracing femininity even more so than I do now.

[@LittleHouseOnTheMountain]

Happiest birthday to you ❤

[@lindaness7002]

I am 72, and feel-- even at my age, these messages are a reminder of who I am...very inspiring and soul building.

[@kendralynne]

I could have listened to an hour more of you talking about this. This conversation is SO needed right now.

[@LittleHouseOnTheMountain]

I'm so glad you enjoyed it

[@Ahavati.]

I feel the same 👂🏻❤

[@stephie11]

Me too. I would love a longer video on this topic. I think it is truly needed and craved by many right now. Thank you for sharing with us, @littleHouseOnTheMountain x

[@Tiabobia17]

I am a single mom. Let’s just say I had a lot in common with the Samaritan woman at the well. Add a truckers mouth and bitterness as well. I was baptized two years ago. Though I’ve gained a ton of knowledge of our creature, I still can’t seem to rid the strong hold of a truckers mouth when I’m angry! Bitterness as well. I was raised with all men in our family. My mother left me when I was 10. I don’t enjoy being around women as they enjoy gossip and tearing other women down. So, I keep to myself and try to focus on healing and wobbling with God! I would love to be more like a proverbs 31 woman and embrace femininity inwardly and outwardly but verbally! I could really use some prayers. Prayers for being slow to anger and learning how to embrace meekness! I look forward to your videos and watch them with my two dogs Callie May and Jack! They say hello! 🐾 ❤

[@shineon8205]

"Thank goodness it was the 90's" amen!

[@melissav.3496]

I'm just rewatching this video. That part had me laughing as well

[@sarahwieland3243]

I have wasted so much time and energy pursuing what I thought was the image of a “successful woman”. In the end, I discovered my true happiness and success lied in being a mother and taking care of my home and family. Making our house a home, loving, caring and providing for my family is the greatest joy and purpose I have ever known.

[@mp5132]

Yes❤

[@debrahemerson7238]

Beautiful message! Be your best Mary Magdalene, the ultimate feminine quality that is truly transforming.

[@allainabennett]

Listen. I am 24 years old, and I can’t believe you are almost 40. Like you look like you could be my age. I’ve been watching you for years now, and I’ve just loved watching the Lord work in your life Lea. May God bless you. ❤

[@angelbby2458]

I love learning from you as a 25 year old woman who lives in Miami wants to be married and live a feminine Christian lifestyle. Thank you for your videos I love them !!! And I agree I’ve changed my responses to things over the years and I get treated better but I also feel better and closer to God❤❤❤

[@LittleHouseOnTheMountain]

That's so beautiful that you are preparing your heart. Wait for someone who loves the Lord more than anything else.

[@hs1athome]

It's so true. I changed to only wearing skirts, no makeup, and an a respectful demeanor in public and I am even shocked how many men, young/mature/older hold the doors and are much kinder than when I walked around with cargo pants, tank tops and was aggressive all the time. These same guys who cat call others are polite and respectful to me. It really is how ypu present yourself.

[@nannag5801]

Thank you for being a wonderful example to us. I am a woman in my 60's and I would have liked to have had someone like you speak this truth when I was young. I think things would have been different for many of us. Praying for the young women now that they understand being feminine is a beautiful thing. Abba ordained. Shabbat Shalom. May Abba Yahuah bless you and James.🙏🙏❤

[@lilawiese2460]

Yes! Same here!

[@jordanalmond3458]

This is so well said! I’ve had a similar journey with femininity and “trying on” different facets of identity that I wasn’t meant to embody. I have never felt more like myself than when I’m in my home, submitting to my lovely husband, and leaning in to my gentle and nurturing tendencies. Everything else just feels like an ill fitted garment. And when I don’t embody those good things, it’s usually when I’m acting in my flesh and we all know how well that works out lol. God is gracious and patient and it’s a blessing every day we wake up to allow ourselves to be molded more into His image. What an honor!

[@doll.ov.poetrii4682]

SAME!❤️🙏🏿

[@nannag5801]

Amen🙏❤

[@agnieszkakarasiewicz1106]

So much Wisdom in your words. The saddest thing I experienced on Earth as a woman is that women do not support each other, and that's due to the diminishing nurturing spirit you have mentioned. Thank you, You are a blessing ❤

[@MrsCan]

All praise to the most high God for another day. Can't wait to hear what wisdom you have to share sister.

[@LittleHouseOnTheMountain]

amen amen. Glory to His Name

[@aidamartinez6791]

Growing up without a Father in my life made me try to find that Love from men. I was terribly insecure and as the song goes " lookin for love in all the wrong places" and I didn't know how to give or receive healthy love. Been through 2 divorces and alot of pain and heartache. When I finally had enough I truly surrendered to the Lord. I have been going through an amazing transformation in every possible way. Mentally, physically, emotionally. I now look to Jesus for the love I craved, and He does not disappoint. I am really learning to love myself also. Which leads to your well spoken topic. I can be the woman God created me to be, not some version that I think will lure a man and make me feel complete. That does not work. I think alot of young women that do not have a loving masculine role model fall into this trap, and our society doesn't help. We desperately need Men and Women to embrace their Godly roles. ❤

[@VB72K365]

Now that I am almost 51 and my children are adults, I can retrospectively see that I often wasn't able to be my most feminine; with very little support network in my life I was in survival mode for so many years. Now, I can attempt to nurture myself a little more, embracing more femininity and giving myself the grace to do so. If more women could be gentle and kind to themselves and each other, what great joy it could bring. I always enjoy your videos. Thank you.

[@Ashmichelle84]

I love how you talked on how we as women need to embrace feminity. I was very aggressive for awhile because my ex was abusive to me and I had to survive on my own for awhile. I noticed how I would talk with people and would feel physically and mentally exhausted because I wanted to be heard and loved. It's talked a few years but I'm working on becoming more gentle with how u communicate with people. There is peace to be more peaceful. 🙏 thank you for sharing this video. Very inspiring 👏

[@LittleHouseOnTheMountain]

This is a great point because I experienced that too. Our ability to be completely in our femininity is dependent on how safe we feel. Safety is the environment in which femininity thrives.

[@Ashmichelle84]

@LittleHouseOnTheMountain Yes I definitely agree.. God definitely is the one that gets us throughout those dark times and helps us heal.. God bless you girl

[@kirstynalmeida7761]

Great point. In my social work job, I stress safety all the time to my clients. Safety is where healing happens. Safety is emotional, physical,, mental, and spiritual. God is the safest One to be with, He is our true Healer. 🤍💫🙏

[@oonagi5051]

Hi Leah ! I've been following you for a while now (since 2015 if i remember correctly) and I thank God for your hard work and your example ! You were a big influence during my high school years as I was figuring out what it meant to be a girl and a woman the way the Lord wanted me to be. Now I've been married for 2 years (together since 2017) and my husband and I are praying for new jobs, a new home, probably moving from France to the Usa, or wherever He needs us to be. In this season, I find myself longing for a simple life, a community of godly people and sisters in Christ I can be close to. We long for a place where our family could grow, with friends, animals and children if the Lord blesses us with them. We're both artists and writers and we're praying that God would use our gifts for His glory ! Thank you again Leah and God bless you and James and the pups abundantly !

[@madelinebell84]

Every bit of this just spoke to my heart! It basically sounded like you were describing my journey down to the letter. I was definitely one of those loud, angry feminists with, as you said, a truck driver mouth. 🤦‍♀Oh, and not to mention, being the lead singer of a metal band! 😂 It seems so ridiculous thinking back on it! And now I'm a soft, feminine, headcovering, Yeshua loving, homesteading homemaker. Talk about a turnaround! The peace and love of Adonai worked miracles within my heart and spirit and it eventually made it from the inside to the outside. As you said, I've never had the kind of peace and contentment that I have now. I'm so glad that you're getting this message out into the world because so many women, especially young women, desperately need to hear this truth. 💖

[@LittleHouseOnTheMountain]

Wow He is truly the God of transformation

[@edenelston7668]

Love it. Absolutely refreshed my heart and mind this morning. Also, I played saxophone for 20+ years, and your background music actually brought me to tears- I miss playing so badly, I need to pick it back up. ❤

[@LittleHouseOnTheMountain]

I love jazz and saxophone 🎷 too

[@C.W.scottishhighlandmama1821]

When I was growing up, I was the middle child and only girl. My mum was teaching/telling me that I would need to be always aggressive and assertive to get by in life, meanwhile my dad was trying his hardest to teach me that at times I may need to be assertive so that way people didn't just walk all over me but I didn't need to be like that 24/7. Past 4-5 years I've been trying to live the way my dad taught me since for most of my life I've done it the way my mum told me. I love both of my parents, but truth be told, living my life the way my dad tried to teach me is way more peaceful than the way I was living it before. I've got a little girl of my own now that I'm trying to teach her the way my dad did.

[@rikim1693]

We are Set Apart . Royalty a royal priesthood. A choosen generation. A peculiar people unto God.

[@TheMennomilist]

I was just telling my husband that even though I do like a more natural look, I want to feel pretty and lovely while doing the things I do in the home. haha. I have always been that way though. I don't want to "let myself go" completely, if that makes sense. Especially since today I turned 40. I also am a barefoot tree climber. I was always a tom boy, but I also always liked being a girl and looking as one. Plus I always wanted to be a housewife and mom (as I am). I think something I am into, is living life like Galatians 5 (fruit of the Spirit). I even have them listed in my dining room as a reminder. If I am not living that way, it will be an issue. What is crazy and a little on your topic. . is that there has been more estrogen put into our foods (the processed ones) that it is causing a lot of men to have less of their masculinity and more femininity that it doesn't surprise me why so many more than ever seem "girly" in how they act or live.

[@LittleHouseOnTheMountain]

I definitely relate to all of this!

[@702desertmom]

Sooo glad I found your channel Lea! This video is so timely and I’m 61! This needs to be shared with young people!

[@LittleHouseOnTheMountain]

And I'm so glad to have you

[@beverlymitchell1892]

What a wonderful video! I’ve been on this same journey towards feminity. You articulate all of this so well. It was very encouraging to me.

[@MarthaAnderson-jv8ph]

So many women of ALL ages need to hear this. I shared on FB. God bless y'all 💙🙏

[@humblyhaley]

There is such peace in living into God’s design for us as women. He’s brought me a long way on this journey and I’m still learning so much. Thank you for the vulnerability of your testimony and your encouragement, I’m glad to know I’m not alone! 😊

[@LittleHouseOnTheMountain]

He is so so faithful ❤

[@ourquaintandcozy]

Amen 🙏🏻 it’s so nice seeing more and more women deciding to embrace their femininity and the beauty that comes from that. It truly is work that happens inside and out, and when I felt convicted to embrace femininity and modesty 1.5 years ago, my whole world changed. I started wearing exclusively dresses and nightgowns, as that helped me to honour and embrace my femininity and in doing so, I feel the most me I’ve ever felt. It also changed how I show up as a wife and homemaker. It changed how I view myself + present myself to the outside world. It has been such an evolution!

[@Momof5blessings618]

Ordered my intentional living journal ❤️ thank you for the encouragement in your videos. Learning to walk in a way that is pleasing to the Lord by embracing my femininity

[@devanroses]

Thank you Lea. As a young girl, I was predominantly raised by my dad (macho command man) and he raised me to like a boy. Femininity is something that Yahweh has been teaching me and its been really hard. Through deliverance, a lot of soul healing and A LOT of mind renewal, I have such a desire to be a Godly woman in every area of my life. Thank you for your videos! You're one of the few examples of this that I've ever seen.

[@lisaspitler9006]

Good Morning 🌞 Zion waiting in line to dance with you and his handsome sweater on, how cute is that!!

[@LittleHouseOnTheMountain]

It's the cutest 😂❤ he started doing it a couple years ago and I love it

[@juditlecky3393]

I am so happy that you say these things out loud! More women should think this way. Thank you so much for your encouraging words ❤

[@dianeb7420]

You made such great points! Modesty has been lost through the years! Thank you Lea. Stay blessed.🙏💕🍁

[@evesapo]

I absolutely support the idea! I also went through having a muscular role imposed on myself since childhood. All this was only because of fear, and not because it was natural for me. Accepting myself, throwing away behavior and state of mind that was alien to me, made me stronger. I no longer see femininity as a sign of weakness or submissiveness. A woman is the water that nourishes life.

[@blahblahblue55]

the dog though.... precious

[@LittleHouseOnTheMountain]

My baby ❤ he is so precious

[@lisamcdonald7125]

I struggle so much because I am with a good man who is still doing his best to overcome addiction. It's a rotating power struggle between us because of what has happened. I struggle with which way to go and have to take so much to the Lord because he is not the spiritual leader in our house and is still very new to the faith. Trust is one of the hardest things to try and establish. And then trying to submit and not being the one in control is hard in this sort of situation. The enemy's attacks on our marriage lately has really ramped up. And I have nearly given up many times. But Yah is ever faithful and I praise him that he is so patient with me because I am so stubborn. Thank you for this message ❤

[@amazinggrace2187]

Thank you for your words of wisdom. This is such a blessing. Growing up with a single mother who mostly worked, I resented my father for emotionally neglecting my mom and us children. This happens a lot in cultures or societies who don’t know the Father. We live in a fallen world unfortunately. And yes, now that I am saved in my mid thirties, I love embracing my femininity. Praying and hoping that it would expand much more years to come. God bless you and your femininity.

[@eddauphinais6134]

Girl, you are beautiful WITHOUT makeup! 😊

[@lindaness7002]

Amazing...Thank you. As a Grandmother of granddaughters...such an important message to pass on to the next generation.

[@stephaniep3970]

This episode really resonated with me. As a former police officer, working in a male dominated environment, doing very masculine work took its toll on me after 15 years. I loved my job, I loved serving and protecting people, but it took a toll on me. Being a mother, a wife, and a cop was not a healthy balance. I know the Lord needed me to do the work, but He also showed me things about myself that I needed to face. I never compromised my feminity despite my job, in fact, I embraced it and let me tell you is served me well. All the while I could be aggressive like the men when I needed to, being a woman allowed me to do things on the job the men just couldnt do. My male colleagues often joked when I was on scene, everyone just calmed down. But they also joked that I wasn't the one you wanted to fight. Inside though it was a struggle. I found myself feeling angry a lot and it impacted my home. If I was out of balance, everyone felt it. My husband who is a cop too understood the anger because we see so much evil day in and day out, but once we were home we were husband and wife so it pained him to see me struggle. Our roles were traditional despite the nature of our work being equal. We did a pretty good job raising a family despite it all and for that I am grateful. But since being retired, I can tell you that I LOVE being a wife and a homemaker. He still works and I just love keeping our home for us and taking care of him. I love just being a woman. I love not being out there anymore having to be aggressive and assertive. I serve in other ways now and am grateful to God for that. I love just being me again, not Officer P. Although I did a lot of good work in those years, I am happy just being at home taking care of things. Great episode. Timely and much needed. Thank you.

[@wildwomanherbs]

I'm 42 years old and I think you may have just changed my life.❤

[@daughterofgodcarolv8411]

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻Well said dear sister! So many outside influences have stripped our God given role but mostly it's been the devil himself right from the garden. Thank you for your transparency! It helps to know that there are seasons and the seasons pass. I too have been through my tough stages mostly out of need and some out of hurt. But I feel for a while now I can "stand down" and let my Lord take the wheel. When we as men and women walk in our God given roles there's peace and fulfillment because we're walking as we're created to. So powerful what you've said. Thank you for letting us be a part of your precious moments with your Beloved James! He is equally loved by each of us and appreciated when he comes on. He's a true example of the masculine calling of men and would love to see Father use him to help other men. Love you both dearly and love the community of people in the chat! Blessings to you and all! ❤

[@sherrysnoddy8302]

I loved this message. I have found that it can be difficult to be feminine in todays world but I was raised to be very feminine and I have been working on getting back to those roots and embrace being feminine. It is the life I long to live. Thanks for sharing these thoughts.

[@tulsiannerose8810]

I love this, yet, I think you are super prettier without makeup. You have natural beauty and look softer without it. You don't need a lick of it! Thank you for the beautiful message! I love femininity and hope I will experience it with a good man one day. If, not, just happy to have become unprogrammed by everything put on us by this culture through our precious Lord, Jesus Christ.

You are so right, many were deceived into thinking being at home being a housewife is a horrible thing, it’s beautiful, what God intended. Being feminine and modest are so beautiful and Gods way for us. Thanks for this video, it is important!!!❤

[@Katniss_cosmos]

I think the man, family and the people you surround yourself with play an important part in being respectful to your feminine nature even if life circumstances are not to your favor.

[@baileytyler5006]

i wish every young women would see this video. I am blessed to have found your channel Lea. You are full of Gods wisdom. I could listen to this topic all day. Thankyou for this video ❤

[@mimiboss9195]

What a beautiful video and a timely, important message. To be as the Lord has created us as women is to live in His security and blessings. Thank you!

[@iluvzchocolate1]

You can be a feminine woman and a feminist and a Christian. My mother was all three. Look up Whitney Davis from Branson Missouri. She was my momma. She was feminine, feminist, and Christian, and even masculine in her own way. I think everyone is a mix of both masculine and feminine and just being yourself is the healthiest thing. My mom was just herself, and she helped so many women from helping women escape domestic abuse to bringing new moms in poverty essentials like diapers and baby formula. I am a feminist who will always appreciate femininity because the the feminism my mother showed in her life.

[@iluvzchocolate1]

In addition to this, my most treasured memories of her were of the everyday moments. My mom was modest and immodest when she wanted to be. She was always in control of herself and respected everyone else.

I admire your honesty and you being willing to show how Jesus has changed you from the old to the new. Now, when others view this message, they will know that He can do the same for them. So many good points were made in this godly message. Very encouraging! P.S. - I enjoyed seeing the affection that was shown by you and your husband. Lovely!

[@Katniss_cosmos]

This is our true nature that prying outsiders are trying to steal from us❤❤❤❤

[@GrowingRootsHomestead]

Ahahahaha I just love them dogs! 🥰 ‘Breaking free of things we’ve been taught our whole life” So very thankful for Jesus who brings freedom!!!! Where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom! I’m so glad that you talk on this subject and show us by your videos just what that looks like from a Biblical perspective. This is something (in addition to so many other things) that you have opened my eyes to, not just telling me how we as women should be (as a woman itself, as well as to our husbands), but showing ways on how to be that Proverbs 31 woman and just what feminity looks like. Such a timely message presented with gentleness, mercy and love. So so good!

[@robynbartlett2234]

Love this SO MUCH! As one who has embraced femininity all my life and seen that being feminine does not mean being weak or "silly," nor does it mean being disrespected or taken advantage of, I've been dismayed by the trend of the last few decades that supposedly was going to empower women but has, in effect, done the exact opposite. Women who have embraced the trend are actually less respected, more taken advantage of, and viewed more as just "sex objects" than ever before. You are wise beyond your years to have perceived that it's also had an equally deleterious effect on men. Thanks so much, Lea! This is probably the most gratifying 17 minutes I've spent on KZbin!

[@heathersieloff4326]

This is SOOOOOOO good! I had my 13 year old daughter watch it with me and she asked me if she could subscribe to your channel! Absolutely yes! I’m grateful that your influence is reaching young girls as well as us older ones. ❤

[@LittleHouseOnTheMountain]

How sweet. I'm so happy to have the both of you 💓

[@leeevanmargolies3475]

I have just found you! I am a 47 yo woman who have gone through all the phases and changes as well according to what society thinks I should be as a woman. I have finally begun to settle into my version of embodying femininity. I’ve gotten eye rolls, jokes at my expense, and push back. It’s a long, challenging process that requires a strong sense of self. I’m chasing inner peace and I’m getting closer each day. It’s reassuring to hear others speak of it too.

[@LittleHouseOnTheMountain]

There's such a peace in finally resting in our authentic created self 💜

[@cynthiawhitcomb1780]

You are absolutely correct! It breaks my heart when young women “give up” their femininity. They have been sold this idea that it makes them weak; when really, this is one of their greatest strengths. You were so profound when you said that women are pushed to become what they are told to despise-how can they not see this?

[@MrGoatlady]

Just found you, I'm a Great Grandmother, you might think I have this feminine thing down, but hard knocks in life can sometimes rob us of the importance our femininity plays in life and we begin to hear the lie that tells us to be strong and control every aspect of our lives so we aren't hurt. I'm here to say that response only causes us to lose ourselves and we become the ones that hurt others. I so appreciate your encouragement, what you say brings me peace.

[@LittleHouseOnTheMountain]

So happy to have you, great thoughts!

[@suzannebell51]

It's lovely to hear you encouraging women to embrace their femininity but I don't feel like that's always an easy road. I'm in my sixties so was bought up to be feminine and it came naturally for me, but I have been devalued and taken advantage of by men for having these qualities. So I would add the caveat that it has to be with the right man who will respect your femininity and not look down on you or ridicule you for these qualities. As you said, it comes from a true man who protects women rather than exploiting them.

[@LittleHouseOnTheMountain]

Yes indeed. As I said in the video, a man with healthy righteous masculinity

[@karenkaren9526]

We don’t need a spouse to be complete. However a man whom a woman builds her life with can powerful and extraordinary as with my husband and I of 41 years. I am humbled that God has blessed my life in this. Calling. Stop thinking so much and do.

[@kimberlym4834]

What a wonderful encouragement to us Lea. The dancing moments of your precious family always make me smile.❤❤❤

[@AmatiinBC]

Lea, thank you for this. I’m striving to do the same. Also, after reading through the comments, I noticed your loving, gracious, caring but firm to negative comments. It was beautiful to read. Pure loveliness. Thank you for your example. God bless!

[@LittleHouseOnTheMountain]

Thank you ❤ God bless you

[@unabellavita6541]

So much beauty and wisdom in this post! I too was a victim of the modern day feminist mindset. It’s taken a lot to break the societal indoctrination that I’ve been exposed to.

[@lindasteinbrenner8065]

So much wisdom in this video. Embracing feminine traits and cultivating them makes life so much more pleasant. God gives good things we should honor that. Also that was so romantic when you were dancing with your husband and funny when the dog cut in! ❤

[@BeeWhale-ki4ww]

Very lovely and true informative video. Our whole family listens to you. Thank you to you and your family for the time and care you put into these videos. Have a blessed day.

[@beaumontpottery]

Great job. Precise words 👍❤️

[@AN-ep6jd]

This was such a great video. I never had supportive female role models in my formative years, so I've been back tracking this season in acquiring spiritual moms and sisters who know whats what in being feminine while also being strong. Thank you for the wisdom shared.

[@alyciabillois]

thank you for your message :)

[@HollyL56]

Your channel brings me peace! 💕

[@cherirose6660]

So happy I found your refreshing awesome channel! I’ve been an artist since 13 and I’m 74 and I find your videos full of love, creativity, the Lord’s wisdom, simplicity, honesty and love for your darling fur babies. God has given you many gifts……thank you for sharing your story….mine is similar. May 2024 be full of love, peace, and growth in Christ!❤❤❤

[@jam1369]

❤. I love your thoughtful insight. Femininity is beautiful.

[@simchascribe9412]

You help me so much, Lea.

[@LittleHouseOnTheMountain]

I'm so glad ❤

[@aligator7862]

This is what I want for my myself. You just expressed a feeling in me that I could bever put my finger on. Thank you so much for all you do. Praise the Lord.

[@LittleHouseOnTheMountain]

Beautiful ❄️

[@MariaM-fd3ye]

Please also remember, that all of these messages are valid regardless of whether or not we are religious and believe in God. I'm a homemaker, my husband and I follow traditional gender roles, etc. We aren't religious though and for us, none if it has to do with God. ❤

[@SeekHim1st]

Can you do a night routine? I liked your morning routine!❤ I want to start using the Burts bees chapstick.

[@Tamar.x]

I am so glad there are still feminine women out there, I feel so lonely sometimes when I look around 😊

[@rachaeldice]

this right here 🙌🏽 thank you for bringing this to light 🫶🏽 more women need to hear this !

[@brandi680]

Ladies, find yourselves a man who looks at you the way James looks at Lea! 🥰 James and Lea, you're such a precious couple and an encouragement to me in how I love my own sweet husband! ❤️

[@brandi680]

I wanted to add more after hearing your heart. I was raised by parents who constantly told me to "get an education and a good career. Establish yourself and never let a man thinks he can own you." 😳 I heard this so much that it was painful and it echoed for years. When I got married, my husband and I both wanted for me to be home with our children. Then we began homeschooling. I have always been shamed for "choosing the lazy route and how can you homeschool, you're not smart enough" by my parents. I know this is where I am most content and have been the happiest because it's been in obedience to the Lord. That's all that matters to me.

[@LittleHouseOnTheMountain]

​@@brandi680that's so sweet sister, thank you. You continue running that race with excellence ❤

[@rachael6927]

Totally agree with you about softness being a key defining trait of femininity. I've considered this a lot with the birth of my new daughter; how will I explain to her what it means to be a woman? Primarily it is biological but as far as character I think softness openness, nurturing, and self control/ gentleness are major components.

[@DarkWaveLovers]

So beautiful…. So true…. I have been doing courses in Shamanic Womb healing and trying to connect to the feminine… the divine feminine and I felt I had to roar… no I need to soften more… your words touched me so much, tears formed and the healing started. You truly are a blessings and I thank you xx ❤

[@FedUpWithFatigue]

Would you please do more videos on this topic…specifically on how you made the transition? I was raised to be a more masculine woman …to not depend on a man for anything. It’s taken me 50 years and multiple failed relationships to realize this isn’t serving me. I want to evolve into someone softer and kinder and more feminine but I don’t even know where to start.

[@Tina-cj6ln]

Thank you so very, very much for this video/message! Please never quit with those important messages (from God).

[@AnnDunnington]

Ooooooh I feel this!

[@thatomarema7634]

I always come here for your wisdom and the word of God Almighty ❤

[@olgac8211]

I just found your channel. Now I am not alone in embracing what I am born - that is being a woman in all essence. but if I talk about it with my feminist friends, they would not like it. I may be wrong! But then I do feel intimidated by "Strong" women LOL

[@donnamarshall8349]

God bless you, for your empowering and comforting message ❤❤

[@ambergibson9559]

Almost every man I know is completely demasculinated (is that even a word? ) and cannot lead at all! It's very depressing. A lot of men rely on women to tell them what to do So the woman feels like she has to step up or nothing will get done. The nurturing side gets lost because she has to be the leader and keep everything in order, or else things will fall apart. So your point about our society is spot on.
