Adele Nozedar has enjoyed a varied career, spanning TV presentation, being in a cult indie band, running highly-successful record labels (both independent and major) and a PR company, exhibiting her photography, writing soundtracks, and being owner/manager of a remote residential recording studio.

But the thread which underscores all these facets is an interest in matters occult and arcane; this might be as a result of having self-professed ‘wise women’ on both sides of the family.

Adele’s particular awakening to the language of birds, and their healing powers, came during her recovery from an operation, when a small hawk called a merlin appeared, which surprisingly allowed itself to be handled; although the bird disappeared after her recover

Since 2006 I've been living with my wife Susan Hubble Pitcairn (a professional artist) in Sedona, Arizona. I am retired from active practice but I continue to teach, offering a year long course in veterinary homeopathy to licensed veterinarians.

"Looking back over the 45 years since I first made the acquaintance of Eskimoic cultures, I find two focal interests: interpersonal (social and emotional) relationships in Inuit families and small groups, and Inuit language. These interests have grown in and out of each other and taken various shapes at various times. Most of my fieldwork has been with camp-dwelling Canadian Inuit but, in 1961-62, I visited Alaskan Inupiat and, in the 1990s, very briefly, Siberian Yupik. My writings have all concerned Canadian Inuit. I have written on the cultural construction of the vocabulary of emotion; family life; the management of hostility in hunting camps and families; the

Sophie Fletcher

I'm a clinical hypnotherapist, doula and lecturer who also loves writing. My work relates to all areas of women's health. I'm always happy reply to questions and am interested in the process of change that happens internally as you learn about options and the power of your mind, rather than just giving people a set of techniques. This helps with resilience and flexibility which is especially important when it comes to individual experiences of pregnancy, birth, motherhood and peri-menopause.

From fertility through to post-menopause, using tools such as mindfulness, hypnosis, visualisation and lots of reframing can change experiences! Everything I write aims to inspire women to be able to see opportunities to change their perspective in pivot

Amanda Blake Soule

I'm Amanda, and I live in beautiful Portland, Maine with my husband, Steve, and our three young adventure-seekers — Calvin, Ezra, and Adelaide. Our days are spent making things, exploring our coastal Maine surroundings, and growing together as a family.

I've always had a love of textiles and crafting, but it wasn't until the birth of my first child that creating became an essential part of my daily life. Making things became a way for me to nurture myself in the busy and giving role of Mama, as well as a way to save money and conserve resources by repurposing readily available materials. Making things also allows me to connect with countless women before me and share my love — through the gift of handmade — with those dearest to me.
