Women of Scar Clan: True Stories of Transcendence (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781945586231)

Women of Scar Clan is a triumphant victory song for women, offering hope and healing on every page. Your scars tell the stories of your most pivotal moments. They make you beautiful and strong. No matter how painful, those scars can become catalysts for personal growth, healing, and transformation.

Dr. Clarissa Pinkola Estes coined the term Scar Clan to describe one who survived a great wound. Author Lynne Klippel interviewed women, ages 16 to 94, to learn how they recovered from deep losses. Each woman discovered her path to a state of grace, resilience, and wholeness, often through a connection with God.

In these inspirational personal testimonies, you'll read about women who triumphed over abuse, grief, illness, shame, failure, and pain. Each woman had to dig deep, move beyond self-help, and connect with her faith in order to heal, whether that was faith in God or in her own wisdom.

If you enjoy the Chicken Soup for the Soul series, you'll love this collection of moving stories complete with expansive commentary to help you apply the lessons from each story to your own life. Journaling prompts will help you explore your own life and celebrate your strength and resilience.

Complete with poems and inspirational quotes, Women of Scar Clan is a book you'll read more than once and give to the special women in your life.
