Summary

The world is in crisis and it seems that many are looking to women to heal the planet and our human family. Before women can step into our full potential as leaders and guides in this moment, we must individually reconnect with our deepest wisdom and with our spiritual roots; collectively heal the many dimensions of separation that keep us fragmented and ineffective as agents of social change; and globally reclaim our rightful place as spiritual leaders in service of a balanced and compassionate new paradigm. This empowering resource engages women in an interactive exploration of the challenges and opportunities on the frontier of women¿s spiritual leadership. Through the voices of North American women representing a matric of diversity¿ethnically, spiritually, religiously, generationally and geographically¿this book will inspire women to new expressions of their own personal leadership and invite them into powerful collaborative action. Topics include: o What does it mean to be an empowered woman of spirit and faith? o How do our spiritual values inform us about living with the challenges and blessings of diversity? o How do we stand for the greatness of each other? o How do we catalyze our collective transformational power as women of spirit and faith?
