“First read this book carefully, perhaps aloud to a friend. Then dance with it. Then draw in it. Then bundle it in a leather pouch and take it someplace sacred—like under a large tree, alongside clear water, into the temple of a coffee shop, into a circle of women. Then read this book again. There is wisdom here that women and companioning men need in order to make the world anew. Bravo to Kris Steinnes for holding the vision, calling the gatherings, and harvesting these voices and images.”
“This anthology of wisdom from some of the greatest women thinkers and writers of our time is a rare treasure. It inspires, informs, and gives us hope for the future in which the best potential of all people, and of our precious earth, can be realized.”
“Women of Wisdom offers a wide range of possibilities, images, and visions for galvanizing a better world for future generations. This compilation is a timely and invaluable resource for all ages, cultures, and disciplines.”

Keynote at the 20th Annual Women of Wisdom Conference February 17, 2012 Women and the Re-patterning of Human Nature
There is a hidden fact that rising of women today is also resulting in a re-thinking and re-development of human nature.Why? Because for a new world to be born we have to bring a new mind to bear. Critical to this is the rich mind style of women that has been gestating in the womb of preparatory time, lo, these many millennia. Rising with it can be a tremendous change in how we do things. The emphasis here being on process rather than just on product;on making things cohere, relate, grow. The relationships between people and things become more important than final outcome. The world within becomes as important as the world without. |

Making the Transition
Climate change calls us to make an enormous transition very rapidly — changing our economy, our energy systems, our food growing systems, our patterns of work, socializing and play — and doing it now, not sometime in the vague future. One of the most powerful responses to this challenge has been the movement toward relocalization: taking root again in community. The Transition Initiative movement is one inspiring example: encouraging people to organize their own communities to plan for a creative descent into a less energy-intensive future. What are the strengths of this movement, and in what ways could it be even more powerful and effective? How do we make the transition into a just, sustainable and abundant world? |
