Women Who Run With The Wolves - Chapter 2 (Part 2)

The Quest For The Wild Woman
In the last article in our series of “Women Who Run With The Wolves” reflections, I suggested we continue with asking ourselves the questions we need to ask ourselves in order to reclaim ourselves. Before we get into that discussion, however, I need to backtrack a bit.
If you read [...]

My Husband Said It!

As my husband and I were recently editing his soon to be released book, I asked him a question regarding some of the dialogue between the mother and father of the main character in the narrative, where the father “politely interrupts her” during a discussion with their young son. As I thought about the [...]

Women Who Run With The Wolves - Chapter 2 (Part 1)

The Quest for the Wild Woman
As we continue our discussion and reflection of Women Who Run With The Wolves, Dr. Estes begins Chapter 2 entitled “Stalking the Intruder: The Beginning Initiation” by saying,

These different aspects of who [...]

That Wild Woman! Well…

In last week’s “Women Who Run With The Wolves” post, I indicated we were going to be studying Chapter 2 - Stalking the Intruder: The Beginning Initiation. In this chapter, Dr. Estes tells the story of “Bluebeard,” the antagonist born within us that:

Who’s Listening To The Men?

I confess that I don’t always understand my husband very well, even after almost six years of marriage.  It has been difficult at times, but his graciousness, warmth, love, compassion, strength, determination, and passion cannot be matched, at least in my book.  I read a poem today by Nikki Giovanni in her new book, Acolytes: Poems, entitled [...]

Women Who Run With The Wolves - “Singing Over The Bones” (Introduction)

How Wild Are You?
I’m excited! Today begins our first day in our study of Women Who Run with the Wolves. And as I said last week, we’re starting with the introductory chapter, “Singing Over the Bones.” Dr. Estes begins the chapter with:
“Wildlife and the Wild Woman are both endangered species.
Over time, we [...]

He’s the “Fix-It Man”

My husband used to call me “My Dream Come True.”  After almost six years of marriage, he now has another name for me…
99.9%
My husband thinks that I am 99.9% better than all the other women out there in the world!  This is incredible to me, because while we have had some good times, it’s been [...]

Reclaiming Ourselves - Women Who Run With The Wolves

Before the new year one evening as I was doing some laundry, I noticed a book my husband had in his library that I’ve seen many times over the years but have never been compelled to pick up. This night, though, the book called out to me. I wrote a post about [...]

Where Is Barney? Improv By My Daughter…

I have so much fun with my daughter (she’s 2 years and 8 months old as of Jan. 20th).  While driving to school in the morning with her, I listen to the Steve Harvey Morning Show (it is the most hilarious show I have ever heard in my life!).  This morning, as I was listening [...]
