🌲 Meet Your Guide: Michelle 🌲
Founder of Wild Human Wellness www.wildhumanwellness.ca
It was the forest that called me home... Hiking with my dog, sitting by the ocean for hours listening to the waves speak their ancient language, swimming in mountain lakes that held me like a prayer; camping in my tent, preparing simple meals with basic tools, watching flames dance their eternal story around a crackling fire. That's where I found my wild.
The whispers of healing words from forest trees and creatures... becoming part of nature instead of separate from it... that's where my remembering began. In the dirt. In the elements. In the primal knowing our ancestors whisper through the wind and carry in their bones.
The forest holds sacred space. All we need to do is open our hearts to hear what is true for us individually. I feel honoured when I am able to co-create a safe-enough space for others to step into their brave, their courage, and find their wise-self within.
What calls me so deeply to this work is how physical survival skills directly mirror our inner survival abilities. The way we tend fire reflects how we tend our consciousness. How we find water mirrors how we trust our intuition. How we create shelter speaks to how we honor our boundaries. This beautiful parallel is exactly why I'm learning these outdoor skills myself - not as an expert, but as a fellow traveller discovering how the wilderness teaches us about our own resilience.
For 30 years I've walked a spiritual path - living sacredly, choosing myself and my aliveness every single day, connecting deeply to my inner self so I may connect deeply with others and the world in which I exist. This journey has shown me that our most impactful growth happens when we're willing to be beginners, to learn alongside others, to allow the mystery guide us.
Drawing from my training as a professionally trained holistic therapeutic Counselor and Life Coach, Somatic Educator, Intimacy Coach, Tantra and energy facilitator, I am honoured to hold the emotional and spiritual integration of this work. For these gatherings, we'll be joined by a guest facilitator who brings both expert outdoor survival skills and lived experience to hold sacred space for whatever arises during our time together. With a background in military training for the physical aspects and his own deep journey of sacred healing, he has trained extensively to hold space for the journey of all humans. I have the deepest regard for his skills in being respectful, honourable, courageous and gentle with the movement of energy that may be present as we gather. His presence brings both wild human skills and the deepest respect for the feminine, creating a beautifully balanced container for transformation. While I bring years of professional training in the emotional and spiritual aspects of this work, I'm also walking the path of learning these physical survival skills myself. This allows me to hold both expert guidance for the inner journey and authentic companionship for the outer skills - because transformation happens when we're willing to be both teacher and student.
This is where your wild journey beckons... 🔥🌲
🌲 Meet Your Co-Facilitator: Ryan 🌲
Ryan brings a rare combination of technical mastery and sacred presence to our wilderness journey. With many years of experience leading engaging and informative workshops in nature, Ryan’s background spans survival training from arctic to ocean to desert conditions. It was in these experiences he gleaned the wisdom he gained through a 20-year career serving in the Canadian Military. Following his time in the forces, he has spent the last decade as an air-medical First Responder as well as volunteering his expertise with Ground and Marine Search and Rescue teams.
What makes Ryan extraordinary is not just his technical knowledge, but his expertise in knowing that true survival - both outer and inner - requires a container of absolute safety and trust. Through his own courageous journey of healing and personal growth, he has developed the ability to hold sacred space for transformation while teaching practical skills. Ryan believes in an interactive and hands-on approach to learning, creating an inclusive environment where participants of all ages and skill levels can thrive. His teaching philosophy honors both the technical precision needed for survival and the emotional wisdom that emerges when we feel truly supported. He understands that spending time outdoors is essential for well-being, and brings both expert guidance and reverent presence to help you remember the wild human you’ve always been.
Ryan’s combination of technical mastery and sacred presence creates the perfect foundation for this transformational journey, while Michelle weaves the spiritual integration that makes this work truly life-changing.
