Joanna Kujawa, PhD, is a Polish-born author, scholar, and spiritual detective based in Australia. She is the author of The Other Goddess: Mary Magdalene and the Goddesses of Eros and Secret Knowledge, and Alien Goddess: UFOs, AI, and the Goddesses of Ascension.

Joanna reveals the divine feminine wisdom, esoteric teachings, and historical and spiritual significance of Mary Magdalene. She shares how goddess wisdom has been suppressed creating an imbalance in humanity, and Mary Magdalene was misrepresented as a prostitute. In fact, she was the closest and most advanced disciple of Jesus, and his life companion. Mary Magdalene, and goddesses across spiritual traditions, offer how men and women can live from a higher level of consciousness with compassion, joy, and delight.
