Clarissa Pinkola Estés's seminal work, "Women Who Run with the Wolves," delves into the powerful archetype of the Wild Woman, urging women to reclaim their natural, instinctual selves. Through a rich tapestry of myths, folk tales, and fairy tales from diverse cultures, Dr. Estés, a Jungian analyst and cantadora (storyteller), illuminates the path back to a woman's true nature, which society often suppresses. This transformative book serves as a guide for self-discovery, emotional healing, and spiritual renewal, encouraging women to embrace their innate wisdom, creativity, and power for a more authentic and vibrant life.
