Marianne Williamson is a luminous voice in spiritual thought, conscious politics, and transformative healing. For more than four decades, she’s been a leader in spiritually progressive circles. She’s the author of 16 books, four of which have been #1 New York Times best sellers. A quote from the mega-bestseller A Return to Love, “Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure…” is considered an anthem for a contemporary generation of seekers.

Williamson founded Project Angel Food, a non-profit organization that has delivered more than 19 million meals to ill and dying homebound patients in the Los Angeles area since 1989. She has also worked throughout her career on poverty, anti-hunger and racial reconciliation issues. In 2004, she co-founded The Peace Alliance and supported the creation of a U.S. Department of Peace. She’s run for president twice, to add the voice of love into the political conversation. Her most recent book is The Mystic Jesus, and she has an upcoming course that we are excited about, Tye Magnificent Crone.
