Inspiration
Look at samples of writing you admire or find feminine looking fonts that you’d like to emulate and be inspired by Not to copy, but inspired by.

Print some samples our, make a small collage of them. Save some in your phone or computer for inspiration to look at.
Practice
Print out some practice sheets with tracing paper above them. Start tracing single letters and then move on to words. Or simply do as you see fit.
