In this episode of Books That Make the World Better, Green Fire Press publisher Jennifer Browdy talks with poet Anne Yeomans, who has been a psychotherapist for over 50 years. She has facilitated dialogue groups and sacred women’s circles for decades in both the US and Russia.

Anne is the co-founder of The Women's Well, an organization devoted to the healing and empowerment of women and girls and the reclaiming of the sacred feminine, which offered programs in the Boston area from 1994 to 2012, centered around essential questions in women’s spirituality: What do women experience as sacred? How do they know it and honor it? How do they bring it forth?

The author of the bilingual Russian-English poetry collection We Used to Call Her Mother, Anne is the co-editor of the collection Willing to Love: Stories of the Couple's Journey as a Path of Transformation, for which she authored a chapter. A lifelong social activist, she is the mother of two children, with five grandchildren.
