What would life be like if we had the courage to say, ‘I want something different’? ‘Elegant, thoughtful, vulnerable, and inspiring’ Elizabeth GilbertFrom a highly lauded modern voice in feminism and racial justice comes a deeply personal and insightful testament to the power of reimagining – the act of creating in our mind’s eye that which does not but can and should existWe all experience breaking points, those moments when we realise that something must change. For activist, philanthropist, and CEO Rachel E. Cargle, reimagining – relationships, work, education, rest, faith and power – saw her through some of the most painful experiences and helped her to craft an authentic identity and become an incisive queer feminist voice of a generation. A Renaissance of Our Own offers a blueprint for how we can all use our imagination to live independent of oppressive structures and in alignment with our highest values – how we can all create a life that feels right.’Dazzling – a loving, bold tale of imagination, bravery and radical action’ Elle
