Decentering Men: Stop Living to Be Chosen & Come Home to Yourself | Maraya (Venus.In.Pisces)
Send us Fan Mail What happens when you stop asking, “Will they choose me?” and finally begin asking, “What do I actually want?” In this powerful conversation, Rachel Garrett is joined by Maraya, also known as Venus.In.Pisces, a feminine empowerment coach, depth facilitator, astrologer, and creator whose work explores decentering men, feminine energy, relationships, erotic embodiment, self-actualization, and spirituality. Maraya shares how she realized that despite years of personal growth, feminism, psychology, and self-awareness, much of her time, energy, and identity was still organized around male attention, relationships, and being chosen. That realization became the beginning of a much deeper journey back to herself. Together, Rachel and Maraya explore what “decentering men” really means—and why it isn’t about rejecting men at all. It’s about deconditioning the beliefs that teach women to prioritize being desirable, agreeable, nurturing, and chosen over knowing and honoring themselves. They also dive into whether manifestation and divine feminine teachings can unintentionally keep women focused on romantic validation, how to distinguish intuition from attachment and fantasy, feminine energy beyond the male gaze, sacred rage, boundaries, self-abandonment, and the true value of your time, attention, and energy. This conversation is an invitation to stop performing for love and start building a life that actually belongs to you. Because your time is valuable. Your energy is valuable. And coming home to yourself may be one of the most powerful spiritual practices there is.
