“In The Way of the Mysterial Woman, Suzanne Anderson and Susan
Cannon present their brave, pioneering, richly-informed proposals for
the advance of womankind. This is a big and unique set of proposals,
which is bound to enlarge our thinking about both the thwarting and
liberation of our greater potentials. It's time now for women to get
out of jail. Reading this book, I say ‘hurrah’!" —Michael Murphy,
co-founder of the Esalen Institute and author of
The Future of the Body
“The Way of The Mysterial Woman: Upgrading How You Live, Love, and
Lead
is awesome! Here I am at 85 reading it with recognition of so many
growth potentials still to come in my own life! The ‘Mysterial Woman’
offers a new source code for our culture. Beyond equality and
empowerment lies the evolving woman, a new archetype I have named the
Feminine Co-Creator. It is a new map for women. She’s in the midst of
an evolutionary move, between mystery and manifestation at the edge of
a new world. With great compassion and wisdom we are guided through
dynamic steps toward a new level of wholeness. Highly recommended.”
—Barbara Marx Hubbard, The Foundation for Conscious Evolution and
author of
Conscious Evolution: Awakening the Power of Our Social Potential
“In their excellent book, The Way of the Mysterial Woman, Susan
Cannon and Suzanne Anderson describe sophisticated yet user-friendly
leadership models and techniques that are empowering for women and men
alike. The Way of the Mysterial Woman reveals the full
complexity of the mature Feminine essence, providing a new source
code—a fundamental set of inner instructions for personal and
professional growth.” —Steve McIntosh, author of
The Presence of the Infinite, and president of the Institute
for Cultural Evolution
"In their new book, Suzanne Anderson and Dr. Susan Cannon engage a
recognition that could not be more timely and significant: current
images of realization for women, those that in recent decades have
provided more equal roles and essential new freedoms, while important,
are not in themselves enough. The book’s sensitive inquiry into what
more must lie ahead is richly pertinent not just to the lives of
women, but also to broader questions of what will be needed if
humanity as a whole is to progress in ultimately rewarding ways.”
—Charles Johnson, M.D., author of
Cultural Maturity: A Guidebook for the Future, and founder of
the Institute for Cultural Maturity
“The Way of the Mysterial Woman presents a code, a sequence of
experiences that, if followed in order, delivers a woman to a place of
wisdom, love, and power beyond any prior accomplishments in business
or service or personal life. This transformational pathway is rooted
in the co-authors collective years of graduate studies, coaching,
research, and leading cohorts of intelligent and soulful woman.
Anderson and Cannon have mapped what could be called a rite of passage
for women who are ready to draw up the love of being from the well of
the Feminine and combine that with the creative action of the
Masculine in ways that are both powerful in the world and nourishing
in their personal lives.” —Vicki Robin, author of
Blessing the Hands that Feed Us and
Your Money or Your Life
“The Way of The Mysterial Woman is an amazing compilation of
wisdom and practice. Our most successful leaders will recognize this
book’s guidance as akin to what they follow. What Anderson and Cannon
provide is a well-researched, practical roadmap for how woman can
consciously develop this capacity to positively guide the future. Men
should read this—and not enough of us will. We all, male and female,
need to lean in this book’s direction and become our deeper, truer
selves. The next generation will be very grateful that we did!” —Geoff
Bellman, consultant and author of Your Signature Path
"The Way of the Mysterial Woman brings health, depth, and
clarity to the rising feminine voice. Flip through it, you’ll catch
the vision. Read it, you’ll feel the challenge. Work through it and
you will grow." —Rev. Samuel G. Alexander, author of
Evolving Christianity, Life After Faith Crisis
"Ever longed for a more fulfilling, joyful life, enriched by deep
relationships and satisfying accomplishments? Anderson and Cannon
offer an original roadmap for achieving such a dream. Derived from
their own life journeys, years of research and work with women, they
draw together myth, psychology, complexity science, and more. The
resulting alchemical mix is a nuanced, comprehensive, and actionable
approach that changes how women live, love, and lead, with exciting
implications for us as individuals and as a society." —Peggy Holman,
author of
Engaging Emergence: Turning Upheaval into Opportunity and
co-author of The Change Handbook
“The Way of the Mysterial Woman is a powerful, resonant, and
original offer to the world. I loved every chapter—especially when I
followed the “Mysterial Sequence” and found myself in all the
archetypes and their fascinating shadows. Think of this as a
transformational guidebook—as life changing as
The Artist’s Way, anchored in a conversation as groundbreaking
as Women Who Run With the Wolves. This is our time and this is
our book.” —Gail Hudson, writer, life coach and co-author with Jane
Goodall of
Hope for Animals and Their World: How Endangered Species are Being
Rescued From the Brink
and Seeds of Hope: Wisdom and Wonder From the World of Plants
“The Way of the Mysterial Woman at once heralds, activates, and
incarnates a worldview shift of inconceivable proportions. If that
sounds exaggerated, we would do well to submit ourselves to Suzanne
Anderson and Susan Cannon’s tutelage here, which transmits the
Mysterial disposition and capacity they describe and gives such
superbly realized, informed, and tested guidance for achieving it.
Though it fiercely celebrates and serves women, this book has much
insight for both the Feminine and the Masculine in men too. If anyone
wants a viable path beyond chronic Hypermasculinity, take off your
spurs and your helmet, press your palms together before your heart,
enter in, and go all the way through this book, doing the work you
find here that really calls to and challenges you. The journey may
change you more than you can presently imagine.” —Saniel Bonder,
author of Waking Down: Beyond Hypermasculine Dharmas,
co-founder, Human Sun Institute
“What a rich book! Like the wise women they are, Anderson and Cannon
take us by the hand and guide us confidently through the
transformation that is already underway for thousands of women—and
men—who have felt the tug of the Mysterial potential within. In
delineating five clear stages and multiple practices to support the
maturation of integral capacities at each stage, the authors have
created an elegant map for a brave new emerging model of leadership.
Brava!” —Belinda Gore, PhD, senior faculty at The Deep Coaching
Institute, author of
Ecstatic Body Postures: An Alternate Reality Workbook and
The Ecstatic Experience: Healing Postures for Spirit Journeys
“This book provides a compelling, overarching theory of human, and
particularly women’s, development. It weaves multiple psychological,
sociological, futurist, and philosophical systems into a stunning arc
of individual and societal development. But the book goes beyond
theory. This is a working manual. You can feel the traction given this
work by the ten years of on-the-ground training, coaching, and
consulting that were the cauldron from which the vision and methods
emerged. As a man, I learned more about myself and about women, and I
completed this book inspired and hopeful. There is little doubt that
the emergent feminine power is sadly and deeply needed in our atomized
and hierarchically damaged world. If there is one thing to take from
this book, it is the confident and well-etched vision of feminine
capacity fully realized and its potential influence on our world’s
future.” —Gregory Kramer, co-creator of Insight Dialogue, founder of
the Metta Foundation, and author of
Insight Dialogue: The Interpersonal Path to Freedom and
Dharma Contemplation: Meditating Together with Wisdom Texts
“Let's face it. The masculine leadership that has run the world for
millennia is a double-edged sword. Its focus on hard science, economic
growth, military might, and political dominance has left us a world
that, despite the consumer cornucopia produced by its powerful
technologies, is coming apart at the seams from war, greed, climate
change, and over-exploitation of resources. And until now, much of the
world’s female political leadership has gotten where it has by
governing in the same way and with the same priorities. But The
Mysterial Woman—using carefully developed new paradigms and
illustrative case studies—uncovers a new way of female leadership
capable of bringing about the ‘great transformation’ our world so
deeply needs. In this book, Susan Cannon and Suzanne Anderson bring
all of their insight together in one volume. Beautifully written and
clear, this is a book for both men and women who believe that another
world is possible and much needed." —John de Graaf, co-author of
Affluenza and What’s the Economy for, Anyway?
“Original, dynamic, compelling, and eminently practical,
The Mysterial Woman is a blessing of a book for any women whose
inner guidance system is nudging her to grow into her authenticity and
wisdom to make a powerful contribution to the world, one that is hers
alone to make. Rich with lyrical content, as well as down-to-earth
action, Cannon and Anderson’s book is a step-by-step guide to
recognizing and freeing ourselves from our limiting beliefs and
patterns. This is one of those books you’ll want to keep as a
reference, but also one you’ll recommend to others, so buy several
copies!” —Kerul L. Kassel, author of
The Thinking Executive’s Guide to Sustainability
“Anderson and Cannon had me when they used the expression ‘the long
emergency.’ They were talking about the world situation, but I felt
they were looking at my life. And so it continued, page after page.
They were by my side on a journey through the book—my companions as I
saw through a new lens, analyzed from a new perspective, and made
choices using a new way of knowing. Perhaps you, yourself, are
experiencing ‘the long emergency.’ Perhaps you are at one of life’s
critical intersections and unsure which way to go. Perhaps you are
feeling stuck without even knowing why. The Way of the Mysterial Woman
will help you answer the question: What next? It can help you to
decide mindfully and spiritually, and then to move forward with
confidence, courage, and hope.” —Ruth Middleton House, EdD, president
of Middleton-House & Company and author of
It’s Time to Change the Way You Change
“The Way of the Mysterial Woman offers a ground-breaking look
at women’s leadership that is beautifully written and deeply thought
provoking. Susan and Suzanne draw from the worlds of mythology,
leadership theory and proven practice to create a path for women to
EVOLVE. This book inspires the reader to think bigger and make the
changes required to revolutionize the way we lead. If we do this, it
will have a profoundly positive impact on society.” —Maureen Metcalf,
author of the award-winning Innovative Leadership book
series
"The Way of the Mysterial Woman offers women leaders a pathway
to inner discovery through multi-dimensional self-evaluation,
understanding of mythological prototypes, and common sense. The
well-researched, beautifully written book gives its readers an
approach that is both intelligent and compassionate. It allows them to
embrace their inner strengths as women and unique human beings."
—Julie Benezet, founder of The Journey of Not Knowing® and Academic
Advisor, Harvard Graduate School of Design Executive Education,
Challenges of Leadership
"The Way of the Mysterial Woman is an elegant, deep, and
personal call for women to arise at this moment in history and
activate their power to lead humanities’ story forward. This is more
than a book—it’s a repository of wisdom that evokes a new way of
being, and offers a detailed path forward called the mysterial
sequence to open the doorway. If you are a woman who wants to love
herself, or a man wants to bring the full life of your woman into the
world, this is your guidebook." —Ross Hostetter, author of
Keepers of the Field, and lead teacher of the Fieldwork
School
"When the Dalai Lama famously suggested that the world will be saved
by Western women, he was talking about the kind of 'Mysterial women'
who emerge from the processes that inform this deeply wise guidebook.
It details a powerful alchemical journey of spiritual and
psychological integration that manifests in real-world wisdom and
leadership. Usefully, it’s grounded with real-life examples from
participants in the authors’ leadership academy. It also offers a
profoundly insightful integral lens that enables the reader to
understand all the dimensions of each step of her transformation,
inner and outer, personal and relational. This guidebook sets a new
standard of excellence, depth, thoroughness, and systematic clarity."
—Terry Patten, author of Integral Life Practice
“What if it were no accident that we came to earth at this time to
bring a particular presence into the challenges of the day? What if
women were especially needed now, with our strength, beauty, unique
instincts, and affinity with the earth? What if the discontent,
yearning, confusion, depression, and exhaustion we are feeling signal
the awakening of our full Self, pressing to be set free?
The Way of the Mysterial Woman answers these questions with
hard-won experience, decades of research, workshop by workshop, client
by client. What Suzanne and Susan offer is no less than an initiation
into our true nature and personal calling. Highly recommended to any
woman who feels like she is cracking out of an old shell!" —Barbara
