Rebecca Winn - Transformation Through Shadow
Rebecca Winn was happily living the life she’d imagined — she was a wife, and a mother, had a successful business as a high-end landscape designer and even wrote occasional articles for international magazines. When her son was just out of high school, her husband announced he wasn’t happy and ended their 24-year union. Rebecca had to process the news of not only losing her husband, but also her identity. Through journaling, Jungian “Shadow” work, and dancing with the unknown, Winn invites readers to join her on a candid, exposed, and beautiful revealing journey.
Written with uncommon honesty, One Hundred Daffodils offers readers the kind of relatable connection that we hunger for and love to share. It is a book whose words, like those of a trusted friend, are often raw, frequently funny, reliably uplifting, sometimes painfully familiar, and always vulnerable, honest and wise. Like Hermann Hesse, Walt Whitman, and Mary Oliver before her, the author uses nature as a metaphor, a sanctuary, and a sage teacher. It is a contemporary yet timeless story of a woman’s search for meaning, identity, and purpose.
