A Spiritual Sojourn by Amy Abrams
This novel tells the story of a New York City artist who travels west—to Arizona and New Mexico—on a spiritual sojourn to find her authentic self. In many ways, it parallels my own story of personal, professional and spiritual growth. Straight from my heart, its honesty has hit a nerve with women facing challenges in career, motherhood and romance. The book encourages readers to access their power and find happiness. Many readers say “I couldn’t put it down.” I also hear “I laughed and I cried.” If you read it, I hope it encourages self-discovery and fosters authenticity.
A fast-paced and often funny narrative, the book is a guide for women seeking personal and spiritual fulfillment in an increasingly volatile world. Revealing shocking truths about the oppression of women throughout history, The Cage and The Key brings courage and inspiration to those who aim for female empowerment.
