“This book changed the way I look at the world and how I try to be in the world. I read a lot of books meant to do that, this one is the realest deal. As I reread it again and again, my own curiosity, openness, gentleness toward myself and others, and my love of nature (even in my urban happy place!) EXPANDS. Sharon Blackie interweaves myth, fairy tale, the stories of various artists and healers, her own life lessons, and the way of nature to invite readers to liberation in communion with our bodies and the earth. It made connecting with my ancestry, in ways that aren't just about colonization, more accessible and healing. If you are yearning for a different way to be spiritual and empowered as a woman, this is for you! If you are curious about ancestral healing and accountability, particularly if you are white, this is for you! This book is just stunning and my words cannot do it justice. The audiobook is especially absorbing with gorgeous pronunciations of words and phrases from languages other than English, and the lilting narration by Blackie herself. ”
— Grace • The Novel Neighbor
In this life-changing book that blends myth, memoir, and modern-day mentors, renowned psychologist Dr. Sharon Blackie journeys from the wasteland of modern society to a place of nourishment and connection.
"Mind-blowing. An anthem for all we could be . . . I sincerely hope every woman who can read has the time and space to read it." —Manda Scott, author of Boudica and A Treachery of Spies
Like Women who Run with the Wolves, this is powerful rallying cry to women to embrace a different kind of femininity. Described as both transformative and essential, Sharon Blackie leads the listener on a quest to find their place in the world, drawing inspiration from the wise and powerful females in native mythology, and guidance from contemporary women who have re-rooted themselves in land and community and taken responsibility for shaping the future.
Beautifully written, honest, and moving, If Women Rose Rooted is a passionate song to a different kind of femininity, a rallying, feminist cry for the rewilding of womanhood; reclaiming our role as guardians of the land.
