But oppressive structures that keep you "in your place"--that is, silent, weak, and complacent--have cut you off you from your natural gifts and pitted women against one another. Following the timeless wisdom of the heroine's journey, <i>Becoming Heroines</i> invites you to recover your inner power and unleash it as a force for change in the world. <p/>For decades, Elizabeth Cronise McLaughlin has been the go-to mentor for women who've wasted years playing by traditional rules. Now, she'll show you how to break away from that which no longer serves you, starting by healing the painful memories that hold you back from living to your fullest capacity. You'll learn how to confront any internalized bias contributing to systems of oppression. And joining with the growing revolution, you'll be inspired to lend your voice to those repairing the wounds of history in order to build a future of freedom and justice for all. <p/> At once deeply heartfelt and galvanizing, <i>Becoming Heroines</i> is an empowering call to recover your rightful role as the heroine of your own life. For any woman ready to rise from the ashes of trauma and grief, live out her values more radically, and lead us all to a better world, the journey begins.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"<i>Becoming Heroines</i> creates a deeply important new lens through which to view the arc of a woman's life.

Elizabeth Cronise McLaughlin shows us how the matriarchy is rising. She provides readers with the wisdom, steps, and tools to discover and excavate their inherent gifts so that they can fully live into their goddess-given purpose. She uses her voice to help others reclaim their voices and break through the oppression of silence."<b>--Tanya Selvaratnam, author of <i>Assume Nothing</i> and <i>The Big Lie</i></b> <p/> "Since February 14, 2018, when my daughter Jaime was murdered, I have become connected to some amazing people. However, in many cases, we have not actually met. That is true of me and Elizabeth McLaughlin. We have been drawn to each other's activism and pursuit of justice for all. I always imagine what my daughter Jaime would have been like as an adult. After reading <i>Becoming Heroines</i>, I can honestly say I think I know. Jaime is bringing the rain. There is no doubt for me that Jaime was and is a heroine. Believing in your power and understanding how to activate it is such an important lesson. Thank you, Elizabeth, for writing this book. While Jaime is not able to use her power in life for change and for good, her power is shining every day through me. In fact, it brought me to you."<b>--Fred Guttenberg, gun safety activist and author of <i>Find the Helpers</i></b><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Elizabeth Cronise McLaughlin is the CEO of Gaia Project Consulting, LLC, a worldwide executive coaching and consulting firm, as well as the Founder of The Gaia Project for Women's Leadership.
