Urgent and provocative, We: A Manifesto for Women Everwhere is part self-help, part social theory, centered in the idea that instead of having it all, women can live happier, better lives by becoming more free (Glamour), from longtime friends Gillian Anderson and Jennifer Nadel.
We: A Manifesto for Women Everywhere is an uplifting, timely, and practical manual for creating change in womens lives, with nine universal principles that help you confront lifes inevitable emotional and spiritual challenges. Its about transitioning from a me-first culture and imagining what a we-based world might look like.
In We, Anderson and Nadel ask why so many women are locked in cycles of depression, addiction, self-criticism, and even self-harm. How much more effective and powerful would we all be if we replaced our current patterns of competition, criticism, and comparison with collaboration, cooperation, and compassion?
Putting these values at the center of our lives allows each of us to be happier and more empowered, and to replace harmful habits with a more positive, peaceful, and rewarding way of being. We is a rallying cry for every woman, everywhere on the planet. Open to any page. And there you will find a truth that can set you free (Christiane Northrup, MD, author of Womens Bodies, Womens Wisdom).

The 9 Principles at a Glance The 9 Principles are a path of love for ourselves - photo 2
The 9 Principles at a Glance

The 9 Principles are a path of love, for ourselves and for the world. You might like to take a photo or write out the following summary. Place the list somewhere prominenton your computer desktop, by your bedside table, or in your purseto remind you to allow the Principles to guide you.


Principle 1: Honesty

Honesty is the guide that leads us home. It returns us to our true selves and enables us to live authentically, courageously, and congruently.

Action. Today I will have the courage to be me, irrespective of what others think.

Affirmation. I am true to myself.


Principle 2: Acceptance

Acceptance gives us the ability to handle whatever life throws our way. It asks that we sit with what iseven when its painful. In return, it transforms our relationship with reality and enables us to find peace.

Action. Today I will embrace life as it is and feel whatever emotions need to be felt.

Affirmation. My feelings guide me home.


Principle 3: Courage

Courage is the Principle that frees us from our past. It enables us to live fully in the present by shedding the stories and unresolved anger that keep us trapped. It puts us firmly on the path to wholehearted, authentic living.

Action. I will take responsibility for feeling and releasing my anger safely.

Affirmation. Today I let go of being right so that I can be happy.


Principle 4: Trust

Trust is our antidote to fear. It aligns us with the flow of lifea magnificent energy that guides and directs us so that we live expansive, happy, and fulfilling lives.

Action. When I feel fear, I will ask myself what I would do if I werent afraid and then do it.

Affirmation. Today I am safe, and I am happy.


Principle 5: Humility

Humility allows us to be one of many, to know that we are wondrous and enough just as we are. When we practice humility, we have a strong sense of our own intrinsic worth that isnt dependent on anything we do, have, or own.

Action. I treat every woman I meet as a friend.

Affirmation. My worth comes from within.


Principle 6: Peace

Peace resides in the stillness beneath the chatter of our thinking minds. In that state of serenity, we experience freedom from inner conflict and a sense of wholeness. We feel connected to the world in which we live, and loneliness begins to evaporate.

Action. Today, if I feel overwhelmed, I will pause and remind myself that underneath the surface, my true self resides.

Affirmation. Whatever else is happening, deep down I know I am absolutely okay.


Principle 7: Love

Love knows no bounds. It wants the best for everyone and doesnt discriminate or judge. Love is our authentic nature and is always present but, like the sun, it can be obscured temporarily.

Action. Today I will meet the gaze of all those I encounter with love.

Affirmation. I am love.


Principle 8: Joy

Joy feels like happiness, only better. Its generated from within and doesnt depend on what we have or havent got. Its vital for our well-being and arises in the moment. Joy connects us with a sense of the divine.

Action. Today I will seek out joy and let it fill my heart.

Affirmation. I am resilient and filled with joy.


Principle 9: Kindness

Kindness is what love looks like when we take it out into the world. It pierces our hearts as keenly as any arrow, and in doing so, it allows love to flow in and out. Through gentle, loving actions, kindness transforms us into spiritual activists.

Action. Today I will choose to act kindly.

Affirmation. When I take action, the world is a better place.
