“I am not interested in what I think you should study or even in what you want to study. I am interested in what the Sacred asks of you—beyond our egos and projections.” – Rosemarie Anderson, Ph.D.

Rosemarie’s steady compassion and uncompromising scholarly rigor make her a superb resource for developing researchers.”
