A Different Well:
Full Of Women’s Wisdom About POWER
Welcome to a different well full of women’s wisdom about power. Rather than define power with a single story, women have developed skills for balancing multiple narratives. These narratives prevent a paradox from becoming a power struggle.
- Share true stories that illustrate how you see power
- Drink from the stories of other women who use power to protect and connect rather than dominate and control.
