That is what women are by nature! So you have value period! The should not be why a man should marry. You are not the one going after the man. The man is coming to you. It’s their nature! You have value regardless of who you are individually. Men only see your vagina is value or you being a wife(slave) a valuable. Men are deficient in nature! They have no value! So the question should be what value does a man have for him to be in your presence?
April is the truth. I know her personally. She is great at what she does and her receipts show that her teachings work. Love her! So glad her talk resonated with you. She is amazing.
I must've been under a rock, never heard of April. I truly enjoyed this session. Her energy/personality is infectious; reminds me of myself. I love it! She was spot on with everything she stated. Keep love alive my dear sisters!
@@Didshefeedyou yes! After a divorce it’s hard to lock in because marriage is sacred. I’m relating I’ve lost myself in my work and raising my kids I’m not connected to the femininity side it’s dormant.
I got married 5 months ago. No sex in 20 yrs. Nevered lowered my standards. I listened to Wifey podcast for 2 yrs that helped me 100%. I waited on God. I Developed intowho I knew God said I was.
@@KiyokoHairstonSo am I, after my divorce I decided that am going to abstain from sex until I meet the man that is of God, love the Lord & working towards making himself & the world better. I pray that you meet the man you have asked God for! Blessings & God favor always!!
April Mason is the truth. I started with her 28 days of self love. That got me all the way together. Then I joined her dating academy and it was 🔥 I got married 6 months ago all because I listened ❤
This is a fantastic testimony! I asked my husband questions before we got married and I really listened to his answers and now we’re 2 years married this coming July 9th! Listening is so valuable.
THE POWER OF WOMEN! ! ! It is amazing that there is still little talk about the book Womens magic truths on borlest, that book improved my self-confidence and taught me how to be a stronger woman, a warm recommendation :)
Laterras & April are PRIME example of WHY platonic relationships are important! They flow, they listen, they laugh, they disagree and learn from one in another in love. This is a friendship worth keeping even after they both get married to their respective spouses.
Platonic male/female relationships go left ALL THE TIME. Men accept platonic relationships with women who they desire, in hopes of one day getting lucky. Laterras is highly attracted to April's feminine energy. I thought he made that abundantly clear. You see his excited reaction when she puts it on. He thinks she's out of his league, but he also has questions about her that give him pause. Plus, she already made clear that she's looking for men in a certain $ bracket. Another thing that gives him pause. He'd have a relationship with her but after peeling back the layers and discovering who she is, he would not marry her either.
Exactly! You don't know you're healed until that healing is tested. If you're alone, you feel healed because you don't have to deal with the triggers. You won't know you're healed until that trigger doesn't trigger you anymore. You can only figure this out by being in a relationship.
Come on, April! A "man is much more than his wallet," and a busy man that gives you his time, that's the man you should be paying attention to." Time is extremely valuable, and when it's given without hesitation that's priceless.🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
That’s what I’ve always done… at an early age i would get in trouble for it by my father, only because I was self aware even as a kid and he couldn’t manipulate me and I fought back from his abuse. Men didn’t like it either when they would try to play me.
Ladies. Be you. Be who you are. You are enough, just as you are. Have firm boundaries. If someone makes you feel bad, kick em out. If someone makes you feel good, let them in. That's all you need to do.
This is so true. I try to tell men this all the time. You don’t have to be Controlling to have CONTROL. If the women is in her right mind no drama she will naturally submit because it’s in us to do it but only for the right man. Submissiveness means you fell safe to let down your guard. A woman no longer feels the need to be defensive. She trust her man.
@@gwendolynlewis5655great point because I think some people will zoom in so closely into what April said that they miss the point and begin pointing fingers at men- “see, you’re just not masculine enough for me to be feminine” When she also said being feminine doesn’t require a man. It’s not FOR him so we should be feminine regardless to how masculine he is.
I'm writing this comment before watching the video, but passed off these responses. The "I'll submit when I find a masculine man" part. A woman should be feminine from the start. A man can't say ill be a masculine man when I find a feminine woman. That shxt ain't something you can turn on and off. No one can turn it on and off. It's either in you or it aint, for both parties.
i cant lie, ive been married a year now and implementing her advice that i heard in my single season definitely helped me being a wife today! She definitely drops gems
As a young person in her early 20's I appreciated the genuine conversation, but most importantly I love the fact that she represented what timeless femininity looks like.
As someone who has been following Ms. April Mason for three years, I’m a witness to the power of femininity she teaches. It’s not manipulative; it’s taking ownership of WHO we were designed to BE before we were stripped of our nature. I love being the Queen & the Princess. 😊 Wisdom comes from various sources. Those of us with an ear to hear & the heart to listen are benefiting from her knowledge. #ATF
@@lovelyone2121She is not currently married (as far as we know), but she has been married. Paul was not a married man, yet he was purposed to write the Biblical blueprint for marriage. GOD uses his people as needed, regardless of status and title. 😉
".. do we leave a love legacy?" This is such a profound question... I agree that we need to leave a HEALTHY example of love in relationships for generations to come.
This platform is saving marriages AND individual lives!!! My husband and I are eternaly GRATEFUL for your obedience Thank you Man of God you're an amazing vessel. #27yearsNholding
When April mason said sexual abuse I felt that. Especially when you are a curvy black young lady at a very young age. They don’t see you as a little girl they see you as a sex symbol. Even my own pastor sexually abuse harass me. I was fully develop by the age of 12. It didn’t matter how much clothes my mom put on me I would still get harrassed. Accused of sleeping around when I was a virgin because of my looks
She again confirms my understanding, the enemy tries very hard to traumatize you so much when you are young because he knows if you are damaged in those specific area you can never rise to your divine calling.
This is exhausting. I absolutely love this exchange. It’s exhausting because the women who were not raised to be wives are so misunderstood. I feel like I have to erase everything I’ve accomplished through my pain to be accepted. And before anyone asks…. Yes, I’m in therapy. Thank you for doing Gods work, sir.
@@msedna8664 Nice to meet you! My mother was very young when she had me. She taught me how to work. She never had healthy relationships until recent. I’m not a barbarian. I treat others as I want to be treated. My mother just didn’t teach because she didn’t know.
It’s not manipulation, it’s marketing. Marketing is communicating value. Some marketing reps use manipulation, others simply use wisdom. Admirable marketers know how to appeal to their audience to not only get what they want, but to also serve a need, genuinely. Everybody wins.❤
My mom told me I use to say at the age of 4 years old, “I bring you love.” With open arms whenever someone was upset. I thought that was so cute. ❤ Actually I still do that, I don’t like seeing people in pain.
Masculine energy is just as important as feminine energy. It's about balance not about burying one side. So embrace both. Both energies play critical roles in our lives.
As I tuned in I found myself Saying" She exemplifies such Poise and Grace with a Unique Settleness of Boldness and Confidence with Self Assuredness. She really displayed the Balance of a Feminity through her choice of words as well as her eagerness to ensure her audience understands the message as she gave thought and reflection of her journey of self discovery and Love. Lady April you have my Respect. Thank you I enjoyed.✍️👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽💃
At the 19 minute segment, I know EXACTLY what she means about not wanting to be seen. As a survivor of sexual abuse, it makes you not want to seen, you like grow into yourself. Because being seen, may mean being victimized again and you don't feel safe. I was told I have a beautiful singing voice but because of my trauma, it takes a will to get me to stand up in front of people and sing. And still at 47, I do not like public speaking and this is a huge reason why.

It's sad that this is this common! At age 40, I still won't dress up or get my hair done unless there's an event, and will wear tennis shoes or keep my tomboyish appearance at the forefront for the same exact reason. I've long ago knew I don't like to be "seen" but I don't know what to do to change this thinking. I'm struggling now because they want me to participate more in meetings etc. I rather have one on one's or send emails.
I'm watching the party when you told April she was pimping based on her responses to men. She said why does her kindness mean she wants you romantically, that's the thing for me. Many men take kindness the wrong way and if you don't accept their advances they call you stuck up. I've also been told I'm flirtatious, but I'm just being kind.
April Mason is the Goat! Love her and her content. She’s amazing! I started my femininity journey 2 years ago because of her. After years In the Military I had become hard. She helped me reveal my true self again ❤
Yes, to Laterras' question at the 17-minute mark, repeated sexual abuse/violation/rape is 100% spiritual. It can even be attached to a bloodline and be passed on from parents to children when it's not dealt with. Get a deliverance minister or teacher to sit on that couch. I knew EXACTLY what she meant when she said "she didn't want to be seen." Currently working through that myself, now.
I was looking for this comment.. sexual abuse and generational curses (bloodline) are no joke. I’m so proud of her being able to triumph over her abuse…Amen 🙌🏾🙏🏾
This is the comment I was looking for before I said the same thing. It is definitely spiritual and people who were victims are “marked” which could lead to similar spirits on others drawing to said person to repeat the same pattern of abuse. Deliverance is key 🙏🏾
“Why isn’t she married?” is a valid question because it’s less about validating her advice (which I believe is good) but it actually speaks to how scarce the dating scene is for black women. You can be a great woman and do all the things, and be willing and ready for marriage yet still not be chosen by these men. And I see THIS EVERYDAY!
Have you ever considered that she maybe she didn't want to be married during this time? I view her regularly, and recently, she said she is opening herself to being in a relationship
She isn’t married bc she wasn’t ready to remarry. She poured most of her time into her businesses and creating a legacy for the Mason name. She hasn’t experienced any type of lack when it comes to men and dating. She has displayed and been open about her dating life especially to those in her dating academy. She recently announced she’s now ready to remarry. Her daughter is taking the reigns in the business to give her the time she desires for herself and what she feels the man she’ll marry deserves.
Cool video, My relationship of 5 years ended a month ago. The love of my life decided to leave me, I really love her so much I can’t stop thinking about her, I’ve tried my very best to get her back in my life, but to no avail, I’m frustrated, I don’t see my life with anyone else. I’ve done my best to get rid of the thoughts of her, but I can’t, I don’t know why I’m saying this here, I really miss her and just can’t stop thinking about her
I just heard someone say, sometimes when we do all we can, it’s not always the things the other person wants us to do. So, I ask, what does she want you to do to get her back?
Being in this finding your feminine journey is a journey it's not a 6 weeks process. Been on the journey for the last 4 years and I'm married but I'm finding out there is levels to this and it starts with God centered love.
When a child experience trauma without the means to resolve it, they end up magnetizing similar experiences . For some children, they don’t talk about it but it remains active in their vibration. Some children manage to talk about it but if the talking about it does not help them to process, it becomes an identity. That too will magnetize similar experiences . Normalizing conversations that give permission to truth will help children especially to separate experiences from who they are. ❤️. Kudos to you for showing up for YOURSELF
This is just overwhelming confirmation that I’ve healed and me resting in my femininity and how I operate as a wife is absolutely right…I was just with the wrong person. At my core I’m a wife and a large part of my purpose. Thank you LW for your podcast and I just thank God He has used you to help so many and myself! 😭 My dad instilled feminine values in me at a very young age. I had 19 years of instruction from a man POV and I’m grateful for that time.
Sis!! All of this!! My husband tells me I’m not, but when I rest in my feminine energy, he can’t get ANYTHING done! So I know I’m doing the right thing for possibly the wrong man
This interview was awesome. April was so on point with the wisdom she shared. It is easy for us as women to lose sight of our feminine essence, when life “hardens” us, but we must get back to who God created us to be. Well done!
I appreciate this episode so much. Having been raised by a (wonderful) single dad, there are certain feminine lessons that I simply did not learn as a child. April hit the nail on the head about the importance of women being able to identify who we are, outside of our accomplishments. Degrees and businesses are great, but a home and a life are built from a woman's heart, mind and character. Wonderful episode! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
GIRL!!!!! You are speaking my language… I would NEVER agree to a 50/50 split. Or any other split… I wholeheartedly agree with giving men the privilege to be real men… Provide and protect… 💯💯💯
If you really think about it God has prepared each of us for marriage. Before we enter into marriage, we have relationships with our parents, siblings, friends, etc. These relationships should be honored and respected. If you can’t sacrifice your time in these relationships and be obedient to your parents first, then marriage will be difficult. You can’t enter into a marriage with a selfish heart.
So good! This is something I talk to my friends and clients about. My son, family, and clients are important and I will at least get a B+ evaluation (I’m certain that I’m being modest). I'm not sure if men value the fruit of those relationships outside of themselves.
This was very enlightening! Independent, self-sufficient until I was 50. Wanted to be able to "take the pants off" and have a husband who leads. Married now and realizing the transition was not as easy as I thought it would be. But I now I see that I haven't allowed myself to walk in my femininity with my husband, because I've had to be my own protector for so long. Will definitely start focusing on that because he deserves it, and so do I.
I'm so glad April touched on sexual assault, you don't realize how many have been down this road and how it'll affect you later in life, it is so sad I'm 51 years old and never been married I feel like this has impacted my life in such a way that I didn't even realize it, Lord just help me heal and get through this, and allow someone special to love me and I am able to reciprocate that love back 💞🙏🏽
you will heal, God heals the broken hearted and binds their wounds. I'm excited for what God will do for you and all of us who trust Him with healing from something so awful.
I stand and agree with you for your healing. It’s also funny that April mentioned that she leans backwards when people get to close to her personal space that I realize I do the same thing and I’m glad she helped me figure it out ❤
@@michelemcmillan904 wow!! Right exactly , thank you Queen, you just never know how it's affecting you.. I'm so glad you're on your healing journey as well🙏🏼🙌🫶
I love Ms April Mason, she is always dropping gems and diamonds💎. She helped me so much become feminine and continue to walk in my femininity. She is the truth to help woman heal from their past traumas that cause them to not exudes their feminine energy. Thank you Laterras for this amazing podcast. Your podcasts are truly a blessing to me.
This is by far one of the best episodes posted…. Miss April is really authentic in digging out the ingredients that make a woman tick. May she prosper beyond her widest dream and have a God ordained king to share her wealth of knowledge & understanding with. Blessings.
2:06:51 I’m so glad that April shared this piece; This is one of the main reasons why I believe that so many people are single because they don’t know who they are beyond the physical, body, sex tricks, degrees, what society says they are and etc….No internal depth at all.
Femininity is the first 🔑 for a woman to learn & trust herself. It's the way to a man's ❤ !! April is the truth & has a great logic in relationships, not just for women but for men also that value their relationships.
I’ve been following April Mason for many many years now. So Happy to finally see her on this platform sharing all things feminine. She is the best at it!
This interview is so insightful! One would "think" as a women, we should already know these things. However, FOR ME...I was taken aback and somewhat embarrassed by the fact I didn't...BUT I do now and will dig deeper in understanding more about MY "true" femininity. Go Ms. April...this is the real TEA❤ Love this!!!
Oh my God! Such a great interview👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 So many 💎! I have no problem telling my age because I don’t look my age! Walking in my femininity and vulnerability is better for my soul. My daughters are learning from me how to be women. I was raised in Russia and by my single dad (my mum died when I was 13yo). I didn’t have the opportunity to know how real women are operating. God bless y’all for this🙏🏾 Sending love from Alkebulan🙌🏾
True, but lets not minimize the fact that Paul was an Apostle and prophet who had a personal encounter with Jesus on the road to Damascus, performed miracles, wrote 2/3 of the NT under divine inspiration and received divine revelation from God. Paul was by no means a "regular" umarried man!
This woman is so natural, i just flow with whatever she says, she is authentic , she know herself and her satandards, what is for her and what is not, so charming and alluring and she dosnot even know! I just bought her IDENTITY SWITCH book from Amazon. Thanks for interviewing her 💝💝
It’s so refreshing to see a woman speak this way to an audience. I totally agree with 99.99% of what she is saying!! My marriage goals are all up and through here
This is my first time learning about April Mason and she is so awesome! She is speaking truth. As a woman who loves to teach young girls what April is sharing and living is so needed. Great podcast! Love that femininity is creativity.
Great conversation! I've just begun to feel like I'm living in my feminine at 36. It took therapy and listening in while taking notes from folks like ya'll. Got remarried in April. We have a partnership, and love that wasn't possible for me before. I see so much more the value men and women bring in their true form.
I want to appreciate this podcast for all the information and learning I have gotten. Before even listening to this episode, I just want to say the lessons are bitter sweet. Yes, I did stop dating because l want marriage, a husband not a boyfriend. Seven months later, l am building my inner self, my career and l have never been so focused in life. The bitter part is how open my eyes have become. I see a player a mile away. I see a man's true intention before he speaks and it's scary. It's a journey. I have faith in the process. I have faith in God and may He bless this podcast.
I hear you sis. Grateful for discernment… it’s a blessing… most women I knew didn’t have it. It’s kept me out of certain situations. The right one will come. ✝️🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
I had not heard of Ms. Mason until now and I absolutely love her! Thank you for the advice Ms. Mason. I will definitely check out your classes. Thank you Dear Future Wifey for bringing her onto your platform. 💓
Fabulous interview. I related to April so much. She seems like such a kind soul; purposefully making men feel seen through pure kindness. Creating boundaries and self love through femininity is it! I had an ah ha moment about my own feminine energy and her comment about being broke. I realized whenever I’ve been single I FLOURISH within my feminine ways but as soon as I get into a relationship it slowly drifts away and I loose myself. Hence my current season of being broke. Why do I turn more masculine when I partner up? Why do I turn to fear and not feeling safe? I need to change into my b e i n g and step my ass out of my past. My healing continues on. Thank you both ❤ this is my first time experiencing this Queen. Grateful 🙏🏾
Laterras, April is on point!! In our foundational and formative years (0-6), when a person experiences trauma, especially sexual trauma, you lose your autonomy and you are groomed to believe that you don't have the rights to disagree with the people who they are entrusted to. This is how children who experience sexual violations at such young ages become a recidivist of the abuse. Essentially, in the spiritual Realm it is like you're wearing a neon sign on your forehead saying, " I won't put up a fight. " or " I don't know I'm worthy of better." Or "I don't have the right to say NO!" Through this abuse and other forms of abuse, children are taught that the maladaptive Behavior is normal and acceptable, especially when it's coming from trusted family or friends of the family. I'm so very proud of April! I have yet to meet a woman who like myself experience and endured that many years at sexual abuse and sexual assault. It was 13 years for me, but like April, I dedicated my adult life to therapy, braking the generational curses, and relearning who I am as a woman; my self worth, that I deserve better, and I have the right to say "NO". People do not get passes in my life to abuse or mistreat me regardless of associations or relations! Kudos April, to being a curse-breaker in your lineage ‼️💖🙌🏽💖 Thank you, brother for always be an amazing vessel for Abba to use for healing and deliverance 🙏🏽💖🙏🏽
Im glad you stopped and showed compassion towards her regarding her childhood molestation. She was going to just push pass it. That was beyond needed and Im glad she received the kindness from you. God is Great abd he is a God of Restoration!!
This touched on so many things, like what a true high value man is, how a girl or woman acts when she's been abused, how to deal with triggers, trauma bonding, being in ur femininity and how to talk to ur man..... there are so many gems in this.. whew chile keep it going!!!!!!!!
This was a wonderful video. I did want to add this in reference to trauma bonds. Trauma bonding doesn't mean forming a bond with someone based on your shared trauma/experiences but thats what pop culture has turned the definition into. Trauma bonding is a psychological response to abuse. It occurs when the abused person forms a connection or relationship with the person who abuses them.
Wow, April is the first woman that I've publicly heard respond to sexual abuse the same way I did. I became a controller of men because I wanted them to feel victimized and powerless like I had. I was this way up into my 20's. I had a complete disregard and respect of men. I was sexual assaulted by the neighbor's mentally retarded child at the age of 3. I was sexually assaulted again at 5 from my uncle. Then molested by my step-father from 7 to 10 yrs old. It took until my mid-20's to understand why I disregarded men.
The minute I saw the ad with miss April Mason as the guest, I KNEW it was going to be GOOD even before I started listening coz this woman is a true LADY & exudes real feminine energy without being loud, bossy or threatening!!!🎉
That part about men who claim that woman aren't submissive enough, is because a MAN does not provide that security!!! I am SOOOOO tired of hearing black men trash black women for not being submissive, they need to hear this! April Mason is an intuitive woman to say, "I feel that energy"- hunny!
Thank you Ms. April! If you want something different, you have to become something different! I have been living in masculine energy soooo long it seemed impossible for me to ever walk in femininity. On my healing journey I've realized it's my time. I love this Podcast!.
Educate me my “lil” Sis. Loved this for my 56 year old self! Validation Jesus that I’ve been in the correct journey! This enhanced my peace of mind and heart! Thanks to the both of you!
first time hearing of this woman and I am infatuated. The knowledge and gems she is dropping reassures me in the way I choose to carry myself, especially after heartbreak. Looking forward to just being a great woman(whatever that entails for me) and love.
I’ll be 68 in a few weeks so hopefully it’s not too late to tap into my feminine energy. I seek knowledge daily so that I do better than I did the day before. I’m helpful generous resourceful loving forgiving loyal always allowing Jesus to grow me into his image.
April is someone I find relateable. I've showed witty banter and friendliness and it's taken incorrectly. My co-workers thought I was flirting just because I said someone smelled good. 🤦♀️ That's not even a pick line, it was a compliment. If I'd said it to a woman they wouldn't say I'm flirting.
Sis this is how I am . I get backlash for being a traditional women but I don’t care . I standing on it. Not taking nothing less I love a man’s man’s who take pure pride in taking care his women..
