Review
Embracing Our Essence: Spiritual Conversations with Prominent Women is intimate, conversational and moving. Its contributors hail from rich and extremely diverse backgrounds. Upon embarking on her own spiritual path, Susan Skog sought the wisdom of well-known authors, doctors, poets, psychologists, environmentalists, publishers, anthropologists, and mothers. Each candidly reflects on the pain, joys, and practices that forge their strong spiritual sinews. Each shows how strengthening their inner selves gives them the outer courage to shape a more humane, compassionate society. Embracing Our Essence is a treasury of women talking to women about the issues that bring deepest meaning to their days, celebrating what it means to be female and spiritual. -- Midwest Book Review
