So, last Fall I had this crazy image dance into my head:
I saw WILD Women on top of a mountain. Like, a lot of them. 100 or so.
There were teachers (including some of my most influential teachers & sister crushes) leading classes & workshops.
I saw women dressed however they wanted-truly for themselves, for their own delight, their own expression.
I saw a big circle, a gathering of women reminiscent of ancient times. Women gathering to Vision, to Pray, to listen, to Connect to one another and the Great Mother Earth.
I saw dancing and meditation and delight.
I heard music and laughter and the sounds of nature.
I saw women remembering their creative super powers.
Pretty quickly, I made some calls & sent some emails. I met with EXTRAORDINARY Women who have so much to teach and share.
And in just a few months, a season really, here I am Officially inviting you, WILD One…
to The 1st Annual WILD WOMAN FEST (AHHHH!!!!)
The WILD Woman Project is producing this Festival because we Wild Women need:
- To get out into nature! Sleep under the Moon and the Stars.
- We need real life connection time more than ever.
- & We need to start courageous creating what we are guided to create.

I have clients and associates that would find the article helpful. Is it ok to forward the article without getting into trouble? Usually the articles are sent out to the public as a newsletter or an rss feed. I am not changing it or hiding the author, simple sending and saying “this might be of interest to you.”.
