The time is now. We are all being called into our deepest gifts, our most potent howls during this juncture in humanity. Whether you have been holding back or felt repressed by external structures, wolves teach us we can step into our truest essence with the support of a pack and commitment to self.
Stepping in is not only about taking action though. The wolf breathes in the beauty of every moment, embracing the space that feels like slow motion to humans. She exists without the boundaries of time or space or “have to’s”, trusting her capacity to respond to the environment as needed, without anticipation. She rests with ease, poise, a regal knowing – her body gently and intentionally relaxing into the raw earth. One graceful paw lifts and crosses over the other, as she takes in the world from this auspicious perch. “Dearest women,” she asks, “what attachments are you willing to acknowledge and release as you step into wholeness and worth just as you are?” As you feel the terror of “not doing”, “not proving”, and “not performing” to prove your worth, what else emerges in the sacred temple that is your body and deepest wisdom?
The Invitation: What if, as women, we are most powerful when we incorporate rest in addition to rigorous commitment to authenticity? Wolves demonstrate how rich and deep our connection between mind and body – senses and intuition – can be when we have a devotion to stillness as well as awareness. A wolf at ease is more able to spring into action for their pack – aware, rejuvenated, even scrutinizing. Our “nos” and “yeses” become more clear, more tied to our true selves than those of fractured conditioning. If you accept this invitation for eight weeks of transformation, there will be challenges and catharsis, and some of that will come through the invitation to “not do” and “just sit with what arises and meet it with curiosity” – something foreign to many of us.
This eight-week immersive program fosters a pack experience for women around the globe with virtual weekly teachings and gatherings, culminating with an in-person retreat at Wolf Connection for women and wolves to connect in real time and in sacred ceremony. Week by week, participants are invited to expand their capacity to be with the power of our primal emotions as women – the importance of our fire, our feelings, and even our fears. We explore our instincts and connections to the Earth and the divine wisdom each of us already carries. We challenge ourselves as a pack of women to embrace our wild magic, and deepen our connection to Mother Earth and the mysterious. This program is for anyone female identifying, interested in a journey of personal growth and transformation, prepared to be challenged via the teachings of the wolves and the human facilitators.

A Few of Many Testimonials:
“This ten-week journey was transformative and deeply healing. I was searching for a space to be able to grieve some deep personal losses in my life, connect with fellow animal lovers, and make room in my heart for love and healing. I appreciated how Amanda and Micha were authentic in connecting with us. They were the perfect balance of gentle leaders of bringing us together while also being part of the pack. More Loves: The weekly meeting of the wolves. Loved hearing their stories but teaching us that their trauma is not the only part of their story, that MY trauma is not the only part of my story and that grief and gratitude can live in the same space. Learning the Way of Wolf. Mediation/grounding The gentle, quiet spaces between our shares Letting the magic unfold in its own time Creating a space for all to be seen and heard.”
“Women and Wolves has helped me gain a deeper understanding of what it truly means to accept myself and achieve both internal and external balance. Through the combination of getting to know the wolves and each other, I’ve developed the courage and confidence to step into new roles and move through deep blockages to finally move forward in my life. Wolf Medicine (that’s totally what it is) has profoundly shifted my mindset, gifting me with practical tools to handle personal challenges with curiosity and grace. The structure of this program allowed for a truly magical journey of transformation to unfold. SO WORTH IT!!!”
“In such an unprecedented, uncertain, and delicate time, this program gave me a core group of women to connect to on a consistent basis and a bond formed between us that is unlike any other I’ve experienced. With the in-person retreat serving as the culmination of our discussions, journaling prompts, grounding exercises and other self-reflection activities, the alignment I felt with these women and the re-emergence of our wild, wolf energy, along with our interactions with the wolves themselves was nothing short of life-changing.”
“I can’t fully articulate how profound this experience was for me. I have long had an inner sense that my life and destiny are in some way intertwined with wolves. This experience only served to solidify that feeling. It has me wondering about the ways in which I can be more involved with wolves and wolf conservation. I was also deeply impacted by the connection between the women in the program, especially when we met in person at Wolf Connection. After a long time of feeling like a lone wolf, I felt like I found my pack. “
