Maiden, Mother, Crone Wisdom and the Power of Intergenerational Relationships Between Women

In this short, 9-minute video, author Kathie Bishop and publisher Astara Jane Ashley discuss the importance of intergenerational female relationships and the support they offer, as detailed in Kathie’s book, “Whistling Up the Southwind.”

Kathie addresses themes of transformation and elder wisdom in women's lives. She shares her character Anna Marie's desire for transformation and her mentorship of a young runaway teenager while also emphasizing the importance of honoring elder wisdom and building communities that support and value older individuals.

Highlights:

  • Anna Marie’s transition from widowhood to self-discovery and empowerment.

  • Krista’s journey as a young pregnant teenager finding guidance and support from older women.

  • Granny Rose’s quest for freedom and the sharing of her crone wisdom.

  • The broader societal message about the value of women’s wisdom and the need for female solidarity.

We hope you find this video as inspiring and enriching as we do. It’s a beautiful reminder of the strength and wisdom inherent in every woman, no matter her age or stage in life.

Watch the full video to join the conversation and explore these timeless themes of transformation and empowerment.

We want to hear from you!
