Jennifer Marks wrote this book after experiencing life-changing events, including divorce. This book is about descending into the unknown and trusting you will emerge transformed, even as the facade of the what you thought was your life collapses around you. It's about reclaiming your feminine power through your own body. The Wise, Wild Woman is a powerful, timeless female archetypal energy. This book is about She, who resides in all of us.
