Clarissa Pinkola Estés
“Practice listening to your intuition, your inner voice; ask questions; be curious; see what you see; hear what you hear; and then act upon what you know to be true. These intuitive powers were given to your soul at birth.”
Clarissa Pinkola Estés, Women Who Run With the Wolves

Matt Haig
“It is easy to mourn the lives we aren't living. Easy to wish we'd developed other other talents, said yes to different offers. Easy to wish we'd worked harder, loved better, handled our finances more astutely, been more popular, stayed in the band, gone to Australia, said yes to the coffee or done more bloody yoga.
It takes no effort to miss the friends we didn't make and the work we didn't do the people we didn't do and the people we didn't marry and the children we didn't have. It is not difficult to see yourself through the lens of other people, and to wish you were all the different kaleidoscopic versions of you they wanted you to be. It is easy to regret, and keep regretting, ad infinitum, until our time runs out.
But it is not lives we regret not living that are the real problem. It is the regret itself. It's the regret that makes us shrivel and wither and feel like our own and other people's worst enemy.
We can't tell if any of those other versions would of been better or worse. Those lives are happening, it is true, but you are happening as well, and that is the happening we have to focus on.”
Matt Haig, The Midnight Library

Clarissa Pinkola Estés
“To be strong does not mean to sprout muscles and flex. It means meeting one's own numinosity without fleeing, actively living with the wild nature in one's own way. It means to be able to learn, to be able to stand what we know. It means to stand and live.”
Clarissa Pinkola Estés, Women Who Run With the Wolves

Anne Wilson Schaef
“IF WE WANT to heal, we have to start getting honest with ourselves and others. Creating the possibility for more truth is up to each of us.”
Anne Wilson Schaef, Meditations for Women Who Do Too Much - Revised Edition: A Daily Dose of Empowerment, Inspiration, and Relief from the Whirlwind of Modern Life, Featuring Uplifting Quotes from Renowned Women

Mwanandeke Kindembo
“We do not wish to judge anyone nor wish to be judged
in return. Meaning, we must dwell on the neutral side, in order to fully understand ourselves and those who are constantly causing us trouble in our daily lives.”
Mwanandeke Kindembo, Treatise Upon The Misconceptions of Narcissism
