Walking Wild: A monthly community listening circle for women
Walking Wild is more than a journey—it’s a way of being. It’s choosing to live boldly, guided by your values, unshaken by external noise, expectations, or the search for the “right” answers.
This monthly circle is an opportunity to connect with other women on this journey, hearing and sharing the stories of the challenges and breakthroughs and feeling the support of other women taking brave steps forward in their lives. The community circle is offered free-of-charge and we will continue to meet monthly.
Walking Wild on Feather River
Walking Wild is a mindset. It’s about living your values boldly and authentically, free from the noise, expectations, and outdated judgements that hold you back.
This four-day retreat is for women who are committed to walking their path—leading authentically in their own way, in their families, communities, work, and lives. However leadership manifests for you, this is a space to deepen your understanding of it.
Held in the Lost Sierras near Lake Tahoe in California at a private retreat center on the Feather River.
This retreat is an intentional space for the practice of change—the change within yourself and the change you wish to see in the world. It’s not about finding quick fixes or prescribed answers, but about unwinding the knots—the assumptions, habits, and expectations that cloud our vision. Together, we make space to listen, to reflect, and to reconnect with the deeper questions that shape our path forward.
