sing away our blues

When the world weighs us down, women rise up and raise our spirit in shared wisdom. Set to music and sang out loud, giving voice to all our troubles.

Here’s a compilation of the women who got me through last year — embracing the world in majestic power. Whose presence and authenticity send shuddering vibrations into the silent void. Returning a tsunami of ripples and resonance from those of us they have touched so deeply and understand so thoroughly.

Artists. Writers. Speakers. Educators. Healers. Leaders. Voyagers. Questers. Divine Feminists.

Birth of Venus, Sandro Botticelli, Uffizi, Florence

These are just a select few:

Terry Tempest Williams | Isabel Allende | Jan Morris

Linda Hogan | Louise Erdrich | Kaitlin Curtice

Patti Smith | Rebecca Elson | Monique Truong

Sandra Ingerman | Mirabai Starr | Jackie Morris

Karen Armstrong| Karen King | Meggan Watterson

Hilma Af Klimt | Hildegard of Bingen | Beatrice Bruteau
