For centuries, cultures around the world have celebrated 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 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 sets boundaries and is comfortable with being a single independent woman.
These rich and often forgotten female stories of the ancient past will inspire you to be just as confident, courageous, fierce, and fearless in the future. With an ancient, earnest heart, Live like a Goddess continues a venerable tradition of reading myth not just for fun but for personal enrichment. I am warmed by these diverse tales and their lessons in ambition, wisdom, and courage.
