5 Things Wolves Teach Us

* Resilience: the ability to remain calm and centered under pressure
* Capacity: The ability to emotionally and psychologically hold yourself, your team, and those around you.
* Adaptability: The ability to read the environment, identify what is needed, and meet the circumstances eye to eye.
* Emotional Maturity: Being able to process emotion with depth and integrity no matter what.
* To play full on: Wolves don’t engage half way, they show up passionately and decisively.

Wolf Connection’s Primal Leadership for Modern Times program is about connecting with the power of the wolf pack and leading participants through a process of personal awareness and collective exploration of their interpersonal work dynamics. The wolves and natural environment support team members to slow down and experience connection to self and others. Participants will explore their authentic natural leadership roles and learn innovative methods to truly see, hear and support each other. Ultimately, the program is an invitation to identify and create the trust and understanding needed to transform your team into a powerful pack. The approach of a wolf—subtle, almost in slow motion, confident, and decisive, seeking connection on her or his own terms—can stretch time, open the heart, and awaken the soul.

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 the ranch. After a long time of feeling like a lone wolf, I felt like I found my pack.

The program was excellent. It went beyond my expectations. The care in the details was beautiful. I am going through so much withdrawals afterwards! LOL. My experience with this program was earth shattering for me. I feel it was life changing and at the very least (or most) energy raising. Truly transformative. I can not say enough. And that's really huge because all my life I have been a hardcore executive...ginormous experience.

I want to say from the bottom of my heart that this program has touched my soul in many ways and was the medicine I did not even realize I needed. You have given me the sacred space to feel seen, feel heard, and feel valued. Through this process I have been able to turn my pain into power and my loss into lessons. The time I had with the wolves has given me the medicine to stand in my power and honor my voice. I will no longer stay quiet, but we let my wild soul out into the world at the rightful place she belongs!

In a time of personal transition, gifting myself with Women and Wolves was a perfect choice. It's been a journey both grounding and re-wilding. Our weeks together as a supportive pack of women, intertwined with self-inquiry and wolf teachings took me beyond a noisy mind and weary body and back into my heart, my joy, closer to my nature. Our day at Wolf Heart Ranch was a celebration, and meeting the wolves-magical. I am so grateful to the women that thoughtfully created the program and generously shared their knowledge, tenderness, and respect for the wolves-and what they can teach us. My warmest, fullest howl of thanks!

I sit here with tears in my eyes as I think about my experience in Women and Wolves. To say that this program is life-changing seems like an understatement.  I feel like I will never be the same person again, in a good way. This program woke me up to something that was sleeping in me, an embracing of parts of myself as reflected to me through the wolves. If you are a spiritual woman who feels a connection with wolves, this program is for you! The program is facilitated by amazing women who care deeply about what they do and what they have to offer. I appreciated how well organized both the zoom meetings and the in-person retreat were, and I have the utmost respect for the mission of Wolf Connection. Getting introduced to the wolves and learning what they had to teach me was powerful beyond words. This program brought with it so many levels of growth, depth, tenderness, love, joy, and awareness. I truly cannot recommend Women and Wolves enough. Howling with you in solidarity
