Publisher's Synopsis
Women are rising up to shape the future. Driven by a fierce love for humanity, the Earth and all her inhabitants, many recognize it is time to forge a new path of empowerment. With wit and wisdom, international best-selling author Beth Wilson exposes the insidious influence of the domination system on the women's movement - a system that will cause irreparable damage if we remain tethered to its destructive trajectory. The Recovering Feminist offers freedom from the domination distortions that prevent women from realizing their capacity for authentic connection, inclusive collaboration and transformative leadership. The Recovering Feminist weaves memoir, prescient social critique and stimulating interviews with today's change agents to cast a compelling vision for reclaiming our true locus of power: love in action.
