Publisher's summary

Where is the memory of who we really are, who sent us here, and what our work is here? And why so often are we feeling unusual, so different, so eccentric, so belonging to a tribe of one? Dr. Clarissa Pinkola Estes, published in 34 languages and one of the most far-reaching artist-psychoanalyists of our time, teaches that in archetypal imagination, "Mother Night is the quintessential medial woman, the woman who can walk in two worlds... 'the one who knows' and who can reveal solid ways of living and unleashing creative life in both worlds."

Warm, rich, loving voice of Clarissa

It is a real pleasure to hear Clarissa Pinkola Estes reading her own work. What woman doesn't love "Women Who Run With the Wolves"? And this is a smaller piece. A story about creativity, night and dreams and the unconscious. In a culture obsessed with the outer world of things and money and the impression we make on others, it is soothing and reaffirming to hear Clarissa talk about these inner places from which all the outer world grows. As always she is standing up for each of us to be ourselves and express our own uniqueness. I love to listen to this before I go to sleep at night because it is so soothing. I like to listen to this in the morning when I wake up because it inspires me to make the day my own.

Love, Love, Love this book!

Her stories give me such insight into my life. Her voice is very soothing and just what is called for when listening to this work.

Gratitude

Absolutely a life changing

All the stories and knowing my soul needed to hear! Clarissa Pinkola Estés is pure wisdom and magic. I laughed, I cried, I wrote down all the wisdom that felt so true.

Beautiful, soulful, and inspiring

This was such a beautiful audiobook that really helped remind me of what I came here to do; Embody my unique soul and embrace the burning fire of my creative heart... so many valuable nuggets of wisdom and inspiring stories within this audiobook. It feels like she is talking directly to the listener and makes for an intimate, authentic experience. I enjoyed this type of performance, but it may not be for everyone so it's important to keep this in mind when buying it. Overall, I highly recommend this book for anyone who wants to deepen their connection with their soul.

I didn't want it to end! Powerful, captivating.

This book is like nothing else you've heard. I adore Clarissa's work so I supposed I am a bit biased. Her voice is like none other, I am so glad she reads her own work, no one else could do it justice.

This book will caress you, soothe you like a balm, hold you, steady you, support you, expand you, surround you. It tells tales that are poignant - but never defeated. You walk taller after listening to it, begin to imagine you are a poet, seeing beauty everywhere you look.

This book "mothered" me in a way I have not truly experienced in this life. I could not be more grateful for the experience, it will be a treasured book I will listen to over and over.

I love Clarissa!

another amazing book by Clarissa! I definitely feel part of it amazing tribe. This is a mess listen for everyone. You live changing experience.

Words of wisdom in many stories
