If you’re a woman who has ever felt like nobody is listening to you, or that you’re crazy, or that you’re being gaslit, this episode is for you. Elizabeth Lesser is a woman of profound wisdom, quiet power and keen insight. She is the author of several bestselling books, including her newest book Cassandra Speaks: When Women are the Storytellers, the Human Story Changes, which reveals how humanity has outgrown its origin tales and hero myths about women, and empowers women to trust their instincts, find their voice, and tell new guiding stories.

Elizabeth is the cofounder of Omega Institute, recognized internationally for its workshops and conferences in wellness, spirituality, creativity, and social change, as well as Omega’s Women’s Leadership Center, which grew out of the popular Women & Power conference series featuring women leaders, activists, authors and artists from around the world. Each year close to 30,000 people participate in Omega’s programs on its campus in Rhinebeck, New York and at urban and travel sites, and more than a million people visit its website for online learning.

She has given two popular TED talks, and is one of Oprah Winfrey’s Super Soul 100, a collection of a hundred leaders who are using their voices and talent to elevate humanity.
