Career

Joseph Campbell's work on the hero's journey was an early inspiration for Nicholson. She too was driven by the sense of curiosity and admiration about the purpose of living. She began researching women in mythology and religion, and from there explored the development of feminist spirituality from within the context of integral theory and human evolutionary development; following the heroine image of a woman from the ancient Archaic stage to the burgeoning Integral stage of human history. In her book The Evolutionary Journey of Woman: From the Goddess to Integral Feminism she discusses women's rich contribution to human evolutionary history, their oppression, and the integration of women's past wisdom with the full spectrum of present and future possibilities.

Integral theory and integral feminism

Nicholson was invited to speak on the topic of Integral Feminism at both of the two Integral Theory Conferences held at John F Kennedy University in California in 2008 and 2010. Her work on Integral Feminist theory has been published in the Journal of Integral Theory and Practice. Her book The Evolutionary Journey of Woman: from the Goddess to Integral Theory is published by Integral Publishers and is in part a critique of Ken Wilber's Sex, Ecology and Spirituality. She has an upcoming book Integral Voices on Sex, Gender and Spirituality with co-editor Vanessa Fisher through SUNY Press' Integral Theory series (under editor Sean Hargens).
