Women Who Run with the Wolves by Clarissa Pinkola Estés

“In the summer of 2024, I read this book on the beach, reflecting on my life. It became a mirror, showing me the reality of my losses—the loss of self and, the loss of my needs as a woman. It reminded me of the fundamental human need to feel alive, loved, and happy. As a child, I felt wild and free, alive and carefree without conditions. But somewhere along the way, I lost sight of myself, prioritising everything and everyone else over my own needs. Since my husband’s passing in 2014, I’ve been navigating life on my own, often feeling disconnected from that vibrant, carefree spirit I once had. This book guided me to reflect on my life, to identify what was missing, and to rediscover what I needed to feel truly alive. It reignited a longing for excitement and a zest for life that I thought was lost. If you feel like you’ve lost that spark, that sense of being truly alive, I wholeheartedly recommend reading this book. It might just help you find your way back to yourself.”
