Welcome to Our Community
more of what women are
We bring together Catholic women to cultivate our minds and build community in order to restore authentic femininity, the home and heart of society.
Why the Feminine Project?
Our world is hurting.
A quick look at Instagram or, worse yet, the news, shows us that people are confused and angry.
We are meant for so much more!
As women, we have a unique ability to help heal the hurts of our society.
My name is Ann Burns and I started the Feminine Project to bring women together to learn, grow, and build a community based on our God-given gifts.
I hope you join me on this journey of healing! Please reach out with your thoughts and I’ll get right back to you.

Modesty is Not Toxic
I want to scream this out loud and clear. I watched a number of my friends rebel so hard due to modest wounds they walked right out the door of the Catholic Church. Teaching women that “modesty is the virtue that hides their sinful bodies” inspires a different brand of negative body image; one that often produces serious rebellion. Again: this is unhealthy, and it encourages more women to abandon modesty altogether than ever come to love it.
However, I am reluctant to call this ideology “modesty culture” because this kind of thinking has nothing to do with modesty.
“I’m Not a Baby-Making-Machine” — A Response to Oct. 2nd
When we cheapen sex, we cheapen also cheapen women. When you take the procreative end out of the sexual union, suddenly, a huge, massive, mind-blowing possibility (NEW life) is erased. There is no more awe and mystery. Nothing astounding is supposed to happen as a fruit of the act. No, instead it’s about taking.
I absolutely love The Feminine Project! Helps me see how beautiful and important femininity is.
The Feminine Project is the gateway to a community where true feminity is encouraged, not disparaged. In today’s world the truly feminine characteristics that have allowed women to effectively mold societies for centuries are thrown out as archaic, pathetic, or the result of the oppressive patriarchy. The Feminine Project embodies the antidote – embracing our true feminine gifts, encouraging us to be who God made us to be so we can set the world ablaze.
The Feminine Project is so needed for all women, especially now. When the beauty and the role of the feminine nature are being attacked and redefined, this group serves as a beacon to the true nature of women. A project started as a small idea to help empower women to their true and beautiful selves, it has grown to serve so many women and uplift them. The resources provided here are a gift for women of all walks to be encouraged and to find true friendship amongst each other.
