A Renaissance of Our Own

'Elegant, thoughtful, vulnerable, and inspiring' Elizabeth Gilbert

From a highly lauded modern voice in feminism and racial justice comes a deeply personal and insightful testament to the power of reimagining

We all experience breaking points when we realise the way things are don't work for us anymore, be it how we approach relationships, faith, work, education, even rest. For activist, philanthropist and CEO Rachel E. Cargle, reimagining - creating in our minds that which does not, but can and should, exist - has been a lifelong process. Reimagining served as the most powerful catalyst for Cargle's transformation from small-town Christian wife to incisive queer feminist voice of a generation.

We witness the sometimes painful but always inspiring crossroads in Cargle's life that fostered a truer identity and helped her become a more authentic feminist and purpose-driven leader. These defining moments offer a blueprint for how we must all use our imagination to live in alignment with our highest values and craft a world independent of oppressive structures.

A Renaissance of Our Own gives us the courage to look at the world and say 'I want something different' and then take those brave steps to reimagine a life that feels right, all the way down to the marrow of our bones.
