What does it mean to be truly wild? Not reckless. Not unhinged. But deeply, unapologetically yourself.
In this episode, we sit down with their dear friend Jen Wyatt, founder of Wander Free Wellness, retreat leader, ritual guide, and creator of transformational experiences for women rooted in freedom, wildness, truth, and aliveness.
Together, they explore what it means to return to our authentic nature and how so many of us spend years navigating the expectations, conditioning, and beliefs that pull us away from who we truly are.
Jen shares her journey from growing up in the forests of New Hampshire, to teaching in Boston Public Schools, to experiencing a health crisis that ultimately led her into the world of holistic healing, yoga, ritual, and women's work. She reflects on the role that grief, self-trust, nature, and embodied healing have played in helping her reconnect with herself and build a life aligned with what makes her feel most alive.
In this conversation, we explore:
• What "wildness" really means and why it's often misunderstood
• The influence of Women Who Run With the Wolves on Jen's work
• Freedom, authenticity, and shedding the layers of conditioning
• Nature as refuge, teacher, and guide
• Ritual, myth, archetypes, and the power of storytelling
• Why being fully alive includes grief, rage, longing, joy, and pleasure
• Women's conditioning around self-expression and truth
• Jen's health journey and the turning point that changed her life
• The connection between self-trust and personal freedom
• Retreats, transformation, and creating spaces for women to remember who they are
• Ancestors, family stories, and the people who shape our path
• The advice Jen wishes she had received sooner: trust yourself and follow what makes you feel alive
This conversation is rich with stories, wisdom, laughter, and reflections on what it means to live in deeper relationship with ourselves, the natural world, and the life that is calling us forward.
