About The Book
As you begin to read this book and travel along with these ten extraordinary women, you will see how each woman has accessed and unleashed her “wild” to successfully navigate her life’s unique challenges. Although their paths may look very different, all these magical women have traits and values in common. They are beautiful, divine, courageous, inspiring, creative, innovative, hopeful, fearless, activated, holy, passionate, trusting, brilliant, resilient, Bad-Ass, and faithful. And above all, they each carry the torch of self-love to light their way.
Every one of these women answered the call to tell their story from a place deep in her heart. These authors, these Wild and Wise® Women, knew that it could be risky sharing their deepest thoughts, their darkest moments, and their brightest victories. And yet, all these women also knew that the willingness to be vulnerable and tell their stories also creates the possibility to inspire other women in ways we can only imagine.
Each story is a pebble cast into the water of the world that will create ripples. As you walk beside these women in their stories, please know that you too have a story to tell, and when you’re ready, Wild and Wise® Women will be here to support you in sharing your story and inspiring others. Until then, enjoy these inspiring, extraordinary, awesome, fabulous, fantastic, and profound words that have been written with you, Divine Reader, in mind. I invite you to enjoy, laugh, cry, and feel what it is to go beyond your comfort zone, to go beyond anything that you thought was possible before.
