Radical History

Chicago Women's Liberation Union Herstory Page.  In 1969, at 15, I was the youngest member of the CWLU, and it changed my life.  The history of the Second Wave US women's movement has been distorted and buried. It's important for our current struggles that we understand the past.

Jillian K. Hansen,  Life Coach.
Jillian speaks a language of metaphor and bodily truth that reaches past all my intellectual roadblocks.  She understands the art of the right question, and invites answers from my deepest sources of knowing.  When I work with her I expect revelations, not from her but from myself, from my own connection with the universe.  I count on our sessions as a weekly fine tuning of my spiritual compass. In a world of distractions and illusions, she stands for the magnetic pole in each one of us.  Week after week she reminds me to be still and feel for the tug of my true direction.
