Cassandra Speaks by Elizabeth Lesser
This book delves into the narratives that have shaped society's understanding of women and power, exploring how history's predominantly male voices have influenced our culture and consciousness. The author argues that the stories we have inherited about leadership, value, and strength are incomplete, and she proposes a reevaluation of traditional myths and tales through a more inclusive lens. By examining and reimagining these foundational stories, the book suggests that we can unlock a more equitable and empathetic world, where both women's experiences and feminine qualities are valued alongside the masculine, creating a more balanced and holistic approach to leadership and human interaction.
