Critic reviews

"Wise Power is a radical revisioning of menopause as an awakening to the kind of power we need today, for the sake of the world." - Lynne Twist, global visionary, co-founder of the Pachamama Alliance and bestselling author

"It’s more than time that women began having new conversations about menopause, telling each other stories about beginnings, not endings. Wise Power is a rich, inspiring and practical guide to navigating this time of bone-deep metamorphosis – a thoughtfully crafted map charting the new opportunities ushered in by this profound initiatory experience." - Sharon Blackie, author of 'Hagitude: Reimagining the Second Half of Life'

"Fizzing with potent wisdom. This is the book on the menopause I’ve been waiting for: straight talking, courageous, initiatory and wise, wise, wise." - Lucy H. Pearce, author of 'Moon Time', 'Burning Woman' and 'Medicine Woman'

Loved every second of this book!

I am profoundly grateful for the authors and contributor of Wise Power. This was exactly what I was looking for. I had already done plenty of research. I understood the ins and outs of my menopause from a biological stance. But I was really hungry to understand what was happening internally, emotionally, spiritually.
Wise power defined that, and so much more. It has given me permission to be as I am. And to take this sacred journey Into my own hands with grace, dignity, and potency.
For women who are entering this phase of life, or are already moving through it, this book speaks to those who choose to feel deeper into the architecture and journey of their soul through this time of great awakening.

Transformative book

I loved this view of menopause. It was so aligned with how I am experiencing this initiatory period of my life. It was validating and encouraging and I now feel much more connected to the experience. Highly recommend.
