Book Review (OT): Goddess Calling

Last updated on: May 9, 2014 at 12:09 pm   By Priestess Molly

“Any woman who has birthed or raised a child, had a book published, started an organization, manifested a temple – they all know the strength, courage and determination women possess…” –Karen Tate, Goddess Calling I’ve been a huge fan of Karen Tate’s radio show Voices of the Sacred Feminine for several years.
