"I realised that I and others in our culture were being methodically starved of substance, that something was awry in some of the 'wisdom' of our culture, that it did not have our best interests at heart, that it saw those who are 'menopausal' as somehow less. It is not so, we are instead more. Much, much more."
CLARISSA PINKOLA EST�S, author of 'Women Who Run With the Wolves'
