85% of our brain architecture is formed in the first five years. - Riane Eisler

My research came out of my very early traumas. Out of questions like, does it really have to be this way? Does there have to be so much cruelty and violence, and insensitivity? Is it really, as we’re so often told, just human nature? Whether it’s original sin, or selfish genes, while they fight each other, it’s the same story, isn’t it?

I always believe in showing the benefits of change.

I think that being an outsider has been very important for me because it made it possible for me to take a different look at the world we live in and at my place in it.
