Live like a goddess: life lessons from legends and lore
(Book)
Description
"Cultures around the world celebrate tales and myths of daring and brave goddesses. These twenty-one legendary ladies were tenacious, smart, and strong. Meet Osun, the Yoruba goddess of love who refuses to be dismissed because of her gender and stands up to those who believe women are less important than men; Rhiannon, the Welsh queen of fairies who won't let anyone make decisions for her and instead follows her heart; Freyja, the Norse goddess of love and death who doesn't give into pressure, sets boundaries, and is comfortable with being a single independent woman. From demanding respect and recognizing unhealthy relationships, to standing your ground, helping others, and using words instead of violence, these rich and sometimes forgotten female stories of the ancient past teach girls and young women everything they need to know, so they can be just as fierce and fearless in the future"--Provided by publisher.
