I went way out of my comfort zone and it was worth it to see myself grow so much... more confident, more secure with myself, bolder, and deeply connected with myself. Getting to be out with nature for a whole week purely immersed in it was so powerful. I was able to connect with myself and this Universe at a deeper level than I'm typically able to. I was able to have incredibly powerful conversations with new friends and with myself. I feel so accomplished, proud of, and I really have a deeper love and appreciation for myself. I had fun getting dirty and wild and going on a true adventure!! My adventurous spirit was so alive during this retreat even when my human part of me felt fear at some periods.

I take safety very seriously. Everyone will be educated on what to do in case of an emergency as a part of pre-retreat preparation. Listening to and honoring your body will be a focus. My partner is a trained EMT and we both have experience in wilderness first aid. I will be carrying a satellite phone among other safety precautions.
