Michal's insights
It was 11 years from the time I met Mimia, on the top of Mount Abu, Rajastan, India, to holding the first copy of 'Under the Quandong Tree' in my hand. It had been my heart's wish for those eleven years to protect the precious lineage of women's business teachings that Minmia holds for her Wirradgeri people so that our grandchildren and great grandchildren could hear them too. A book seemed to be the best way to do this. What a journey but not a lonely one. So many women have helped this wish to bear fruit. I think we are at the beginning of the next wave of understanding the indigenous story of this ancient continent Australia and to me it is the heart of the story - the spiritual teachings. So much sacrifice has been made by so many women over hundreds and thousands of years to make it possible to have this book today. I suggest you read it.
