**"When sleeping women wake, mountains move."** ~ African Proverb
*When sleeping women wake* is an African proverb that speaks to the profound power of women to change the world - in particular those who come to realize and embrace their inner might and experience an “awakening”. As author Clarissa Pinkola Estes wrote in her groundbreaking book “Women who run with wolves” ( 1989) *“Though her soul requires seeing, the culture around her requires sightlessness. Though her soul wishes to speak its truth, she is pressured to be silent.”*
But eventually, some earlier and some later, women awaken to their sight and their voice and their extraordinary power to move mountains.
