The Book's Author

Goddess Gift by Sharon Turnbull, Ph.D.

In her own words, Sharon is a Goddess, diva, legendary lady, mountain mamma, and wonderwoman 'of a certain age' who, between agonizing bouts of questioning her personal worth, tries to not take anything 'too seriously', trying to evaluate all crises in terms of their future anecdotal value.

As an international lecturer in the field of health care and women's issues, she shares her work with a gentle graciousness, enthusiasm and humility.

Sharon is particularly fond of gathering and crafting stories that teach, transform and inspire others. With irreverent humor and an innate sense of the absurd, Sharon's talks and writing helps people see how needlessly complex and stressful our lives can become.

Currently Sharon occupies the lofty positions of senior partner/owner/slave of Goddessgift.com, a website designed to celebrate and nurture the goddess in everywoman. Sleeps during the six hours that remain. ("Mammas don't let your daughters grow up to be webmistresses!", she advises.)

Although she's managed successful careers as nurse, psychologist, university faculty member and administrator, author, and speaker, she still cannot carry a tune, throw/catch a ball, or stand on one foot for any length of time.

Following her retirement from university life, she devoted herself to the development of the popular Goddess Quiz, the first scientifically based archetype on the internet. With daughters Liz and Sarah, she formed the Goddess Path partnership and now 'manages' their four web sites. (Use this link to read about the author's philosophy about the goddesses in the modern world.)

Wife and friend, mother of 2, stepmom of 3, alpha-mom (2 dogs, 1 cat) and grandmother of 10. Forgetful of birthdays. Learned to delegate/share responsibility for household and meals a few years ago. (Slow learner!)

Plays with watercolors and gourd art, never throws anything away, is never bored, and lives by the motto 'Don't get mad, get even!'
