Critic reviews

"Dr. Estes’s palpable emotional engagement (and obvious desire to speak to those in pain) can be heard in the flowing, calming sound she creates with each interlocking syllable, reflective pause, and change in vocal intensity. The arresting beauty in both her writing and narrative performance will make listeners believe that they can internalize the mother’s ability to soothe themselves and find emotional balance, whether or not they ever received such mothering."

She tells her story like no other. CPE writes powerful stories about healing, anxiety, addiction. These stories can be read or listened to many times. This one and mother moon and Red Shoes are a few of my favs along with her amazing book Women Who Run with wolves is fantastic!

Clarissa’s story-telling and her lens of interpretation are medicine for my tender heart. Especially resonant for an adult child of a dysfunctional family.
