The WildWoman women's retreat is a 4-day living ritual created to initiate you back into your true essence as a woman - one who is soft, wild, turned on, balanced, and vibrantly alive. Because the world needs more juiced up women who can feel their bodies fully, trust their knowing, and walk through the world radiating magic. That's YOU!
Get ready to ...
And still have plenty of time to rest, luxuriate on the earth, play in the waterfalls, bathe in the sun, or nap and lay your soft animal body down.
When we come together in sacred sisterhood, we liberate ourselves, uplift one another, and discover our true feminine power.

Think of WildWoman as a modern day Goddess Temple, in the lush emerald forest and pristine healing waters of the majestic Blue Ridge Mountains.
Together we dance, sing, pray, laugh, transform, get raw and real, and celebrate one another, as we shed the layers that keep us disconnected from our true souls and reconnect with the Wild Sensual Essence within.
Most of our women return to WildWoman year after year, bringing their best friends, sisters, mother, and grown daughters. We can't wait to welcome you into this love, support and epic magic.
Welcome to the Temple, Sister!
“I didn't realize how much I needed sisterhood. And I didn't realize how much I let myself get in the way of it. I truly crave sisterhood and I have often been so afraid to seek it for fear of being rejected or judged. Thank you to ALL of you on this retreat, for showing me the beauty of sisterhood. And that it can be true and real even when we barely know one another. It was absolutely beautiful! Thank you for welcoming me into your lives!” --Heather, WildWoman 2023
Whether pressed underground or fully expressed in our lives, the WildWoman will not be denied. She demands our attention through anxiety, depression, exhaustion, illness, drama and addictions if she cannot get our attention any other way.
Now more than ever, we need her vitality, her feral juiciness, her instinctual knowing, her disregard for bullshit, and her deep connection with Mother Earth in order to thrive.
Juicy, Sensual, Playful, Uncontrollable: The WildWoman celebrates her sexuality. She is the embodiment of the Divine Feminine on Earth. She enjoys her body on her own terms. She knows her worth and waits for what she desires. She is whole unto herself and 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 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 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 does not make herself small to make others comfortable. She does not waste her precious time, energy or attention on people or situations not in alignment with who she really is. She uses her power and her fierce, loving presence to create the new world, one breath at a time.
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.
You will be part of a close sisterhood of 30-40 incredible women. We will get to know each other intimately all weekend through potent rituals, playful interaction, initiatory experiences, authentic relating, casual conversations at meal times and more. You will create strong bonds of friendship in down to earth and enlivening ways.
We will gather on a luscious secluded piece of land nestled in the Appalachian mountains where you will be under the moon and stars each night. You have the option to camp on the Earth, or upgrade your WildWoman experience to sleep indoors on one of our 10 available beds inside the retreat center. You will be fed delicious, healthy, gourmet meals each day so you can truly drop into the experience of receiving and rejuvenating.
Expect to be guided into a magical initiation journey that is equally transformative and integrative. There will be activities and rituals that will gently open you to your sensual, wild essence where you feel safe and free to be your true self, and connect with other women authentically, while still having plenty of time to rest, luxuriate on the earth, play in the waterfalls, bathe in the sun, or nap and lay your soft animal body down.
Our ceremonies and initiations are centered around our greatest teachers - the Elements. Each initiation aligns with our theme of the year - "Activating Your Sensual Essence". You will be guided into profound, sensuous, and wilding rituals to activate your untamed and alluring essence, using the elements as guides.
The earth is the fullest expression of abundance and the erotic as ultimate life force. Refill your empty cup and feel an embodied sense of support, ease and true aliveness that comes from receiving from the fertile Earth. Remember the magnetic and enchanting woman you are.
Breathe open your entire body, activating every cell within to stimulate your visionary and magical nature. Use the rhythmic pulsation of your breath at the core of your erotic body. Open yourself to the world of the unseen, learn to trust your intuitive wise woman, feel your imagination, expand your vision and inspiration to soar.
Discover your destructive WildWoman who knows her transformative energy and how to wield it to burn down the old and unserving forces. Feel the heat and raw power of your creative arousal that comes when you live connected to your highest, unapologetic truth.
Embrace the wisdom of the waters - she teaches us how to live in flow & feminine ease while staying on our devoted path and mission. Surrender into the waters of the earth and feel her cleansing and renewing your heart, spirit and crystalline nature…being reborn as your true WildWoman.
You have the option to camp on the lush earth, or upgrade your WildWoman experience to one of our 10 available beds in the beautiful indoor retreat house. Plus you will have full use of the gorgeous retreat center property nestled into 63 acres of pristine forest in the majestic Blue Ridge Mountains. This property features hiking trails, 2 waterfalls, swimming hole, prayer room, yoga deck, a beautiful dining hall, and a yurt which we turn into a Goddess Temple!
Healthy, delicious meals featuring locally sourced ingredients will be provided by our wonderful caterer.
The meal plan, Thursday dinner through Sunday brunch, is included in your registration fee for the weekend.
Gluten free, dairy free, vegetarian, vegan and omnivore will all be available as part of the meal plan.

The gorgeous location where we are gathering this year is nestled into 63 acres of pristine forest in the magical Blue Ridge mountains near Asheville, N.C. The land has some steep climbs. Your safety is our priority. We have several women on staff and participants who are happy to assist you with the hikes. If hiking and creek crossings are way beyond your physical abilities at this time, please contact us prior to registering to discuss whether this is the best retreat for you. We also do lots of activities at base camp. If you choose skip a hike, you would be welcome to relax at base camp. If you choose not to get in the river or the waterfalls, you could still enjoy the water by soaking your feet at the edge.
Part of the magic of WildWoman is that we provide women the safe space to be naked in the woods together, if you so choose. We have the entire property to ourselves for the weekend. Year after year, women have said to us that this is perhaps the most healing and liberating aspect of our WildWoman community.
Our bodies are glorious – every single one of us. Being naked in the woods allows our bodies to be free, to be nourished by the forest and the waters, to be celebrated. As we see the beauty in each other – in every shape, size, color and age – we awaken to our own beauty and empowerment in ways that cannot be described or figured out mentally. This is an opportunity for deep healing and re-patterning of all the B.S. that our culture has programmed into women for ages.
You don’t have to take off a single stitch of your clothing if you don’t want to. Or you might decide to take off some of your clothes and feel the fresh air on your skin. Every woman is sovereign and you get to decide what feels right for you. We just want you to know ahead of time that there will be naked or partially naked women walking around and that the opportunity is there for you.
Our retreat is designed specifically for cisgender women who have shared experiences rooted in being assigned female at birth and socialized as females. This includes unique biological and reproductive experiences such as menstruation. We honor and respect all gender identities and expressions; however, the specific focus of this retreat will not fully address the needs or experiences of transgender individuals or those with diverse gender identities. We encourage individuals looking for a retreat that centers a broader spectrum of gender identity to explore other wonderful retreats that cater to these diverse needs.
