When was the last time you thought about power—what it really means to be powerful, and how it impacts every part of your life? Too often, power is misunderstood as domination or control, when in truth, it is neutral energy that we all carry within us. The real question is: how are you using yours?
In this episode of The Jenna Banks Show, Jenna sits down with visionary thinker, social impact entrepreneur, and founder of the True Power Institute, Rúna Bouius. Together, they explore the concept of true power as energy, presence, and balance—moving beyond outdated patriarchal models of “power over” into a new era of “power with.”
In this episode, you’ll discover:
Why power is not good or bad—it’s neutral, and how you wield it determines the outcome
The cultural shift from 5,400 years of domination and patriarchy to a new “era of partnership” between masculine and feminine energies
How disempowering beliefs, boundaries, and burnout drain your inner power battery, and practical ways to recharge it
Why self-care, creativity, and connection to Source are essential for staying in your power
Different types of power (personal, positional, social, relational, even celebrity power) and how they show up in daily life
What it feels like to be in your power—a calm, quiet presence that others can sense the moment you walk into a room
Jenna and Rúna also dive into leadership, corporate culture, and the movement toward conscious capitalism, where thriving people create thriving companies. And in a powerful closing reflection, Jenna brings the conversation back to the greatest source of all power—love. Quoting Albert Einstein’s letter to his daughter, she reminds us that love is gravity, light, and the energy that multiplies the best within us.
If you’ve ever given your power away to fear, old beliefs, or outside forces, this conversation will inspire you to reclaim it. You are power—and your love is the most powerful force in the universe.
