Clarissa Pinkola Estés: “The soul has no gender.”
Shapeshifting into animal forms has always held a certain fascination for Lindsay Tierstein. As they embrace their true self at every turn, Lindsay has encountered labels put upon by family, friends, colleagues, and the world at large. They’ve now begun to peel off the ones that don’t fit and press in the ones that do, in pursuit of living life on their own terms.
Highlights:
· Stripping away gender
· Differentiate what is inside and what is conditioning
· The Golden Girls as a model life
