WildWomaN 2024: Activate Your Wild Sensual Essence
August 22-25, 2024
near Asheville, NC
Welcome to the initiation of a lifetime!
Women have been missing initiations, rituals and simplistic connection to nature most of our lives. It’s left us feeling disconnected, shut down, and burnt out as we walk through the world trying to be and do it all as sovereign women.
We celebrate your sovereignty ~ AND ~ you don’t have to do it alone! When we come together in sacred sisterhood, we liberate ourselves, uplift one another, and discover our true sensual feminine essence.
WildWoman is a 4-day living ritual, created to initiate you back into your true essence as a Woman. One who is wild, soft, turned on, balanced, and vibrantly alive.
Who is the WildWoman?
Juicy, Sensual, Playful, Uncontrollable: The WildWoman celebrates her sexuality. She is the embodiment of the Divine Feminine on Earth. She adores and adorns her body with reverence and delight. She does not desecrate her vessel with those who do not treat her well. She does not settle for crumbs of comfort. She enjoys her body on her own terms. She knows her worth and waits for what she desires. She is whole unto herself nd fully available for love and communion.

She knows her worth and waits for what she desires. She is whole unto herself nd fully available for love and communion.
Energized & Full of Vitality: The WildWoman cares for herself in such a way that she feels nourished, replenished, inspired and ready for action. She knows when to rest and does not give herself a hard time about it. She trusts her own innate rhythms and seasons.
Listens to and Follows Her Soul: The WildWoman lives in deep communion and sacred reciprocity with Mother Earth. She listens to the trees, the rivers, the stones, the wind and all of the creature teachers. She remembers that we are all star dust and shines her own Light out into the world as a beacon to those who are ready to wake up. She chooses her actions each day from the wisdom and guidance of her own soul, not the timelines or expectations of anyone or anything outside of herself.
Unafraid of her WILD, vast, feminine power: The WildWoman owns “YES” and her "NO." She does not make herself small to make others comfortable. She does not waste her precious time, energy or attentionon people or situations that are not in alignmentwith who she really is. She uses her power and her fierce, loving presence to create the new world, one breath at a time.
Sources her Safety from Within: The WildWoman feels safe within herself because she knows how to BE WITH whatever arises within her – rather than numbing, reacting, distracting, acting out, or seeking someone else to soothe her uncomfortable feelings. As long as we look to others to make us safe we will never feel safe. It is only through the practice of becoming a safe space for ourselves that we are able to offer safety to the world.
Inhabits her Wholeness: The WildWoman embraces her Light and Dark, her strength and vulnerability, her Maiden and Mother, her Witch and Warrioress, her sexuality and sovereignty, her emotions and her brilliance, her sensitivity and her knowing, her love and her fears, her grief and her anger.
Supported by Community: In owning her wholeness, the WildWoman magnetizes a tribe of people who can meet her. As long as we resist, repress, deny or shame of any part of ourselves we will unconsciously push away partners, friends and the opportunities that life offers us.
