About this listen

In this life-changing book that blends myth, memoir, and modern-day mentors, renowned psychologist Dr. Sharon Blackie journeys from the wasteland of modern society to a place of nourishment and connection.

"Mind-blowing. An anthem for all we could be . . . I sincerely hope every woman who can read has the time and space to read it."—Manda Scott, author of Boudica and A Treachery of Spies

Like Women who Run with the Wolves, this is powerful rallying cry to women to embrace a different kind of femininity. Described as both transformative and essential, Sharon Blackie leads the listener on a quest to find their place in the world, drawing inspiration from the wise and powerful females in native mythology, and guidance from contemporary women who have re-rooted themselves in land and community and taken responsibility for shaping the future.

Beautifully written, honest, and moving, If Women Rose Rooted is a passionate song to a different kind of femininity, a rallying, feminist cry for the rewilding of womanhood; reclaiming our role as guardians of the land.

This book took me on a most thought provoking journey through the hidden inner landscape of my very soul.
I found it amusing, enlightening, and growth-full.
I am so very grateful for its existence which challenged me to review my life, changing how I viewed events and bringing me to place of deep acceptance and peace within.
The writing is eloquent and moving with a wonderful turn of phrase that kept me captivated. She elegantly weaves mythology, tales of place, stories of people, and her own life learnings together. Each chapter was a life lesson to be sat with, reflected upon, and digested slowly before embarking on the next chapter.
To say it has profoundly changed my life sounds trite, but is, in fact, a deep truth.
I will now seek more books from this beautifully humble, honest, and talented writer.

Profoundly life affirming and life changing

Currently on a journey of leaning into my authentic self & discovering a pull to the history of women, this book has filled me up with information, stories & facts about the journey of our brilliant, powerful and natural women of Mother Earth. I am inspired & excited to put to work on my next “life chapter”.
If you are at a stage of looking for where you really should be with life, this book could well have some insight.

Sharon's book is uplifting and inspiring. It evokes many emotions and provides inspiration to pick up a pen and write all the way through. The suggestions of other authors and their books gives you a sense of belonging and the true impression of there being a women's circle that spans the world. Having read some of those suggested books it was comfortinto hear of them again. I look forward to reading Hagitude next.

I love the deep feeling of connection to land, to the natural world and to the inner gifts, knowing and wisdom of the feminine in all of her many appearances.

I love Sharon's knowledge, experience and resulting wisdom that she shares through the book.

As I travel upon the recently flooded Mekong River, I feel and see the power of water. And I listen to the conclusion of this beautifully written and narrated book, that reminds me of the power of the feminine and the necessity for me to step fully into my own heroine's journey. Thank you for the inspiration.

This book is both passion and precision. Erudite and contained, Blackie is also full of feeling; her words, full of healing and hope. We have a way to save our planet and communities in this literary, feminine manifesto. Absolutely must read.

A road map back to land through the mythic feminine… a must read for the Celtic diaspora
