Open Circle

Lost Sierra Retreat Center, Graeagle California

This four-day retreat is for women who are committed to walking their path—leading authentically in their own way, in their families, communities, work, and lives. However leadership manifests for you, this is a space to deepen your understanding of it.  

Walking Wild is a mindset. It’s about living your values boldly and authentically, free from the noise, expectations, and outdated judgements that hold you back.

This retreat is an intentional space for the practice of change—the change within yourself and the change you wish to see in the world. It’s not about finding quick fixes or prescribed answers, but about unwinding the knots—the assumptions, habits, and expectations that cloud our vision. Together, we make space to listen, to reflect, and to reconnect with the deeper questions that shape our path forward.  

You’ll step into this retreat by first stepping outside—into nature, into yourself. Before we gather, you’ll take a walk alone and write a letter of intention. These intentions will help guide our time together. 

Key Questions We’ll Explore:  

- Identity & Change: Who are we becoming, and how do we navigate transitions—within ourselves and in our leadership?  

- Responsibility & Freedom: What calls us forward, and what must we release to fully step into our lives as a leader?  

- Power & Alignment: How do we recognize and wield our power in ways that honor our deepest values?  

- Emotion & Action: How can we transform emotion into fuel for meaningful action and growth?  

- Spirit & Inspiration:How do we listen to and trust the guidance of spirit in our daily lives and leadership?

What you can expect:  

- A renewed sense of courage and sustenance to walk your path  

- Clarity to move through challenges in your leadership journey  

- Open Circle’s guiding principles for navigating change  

- Shared wisdom and centering practices from other women leaders  

- Time for stillness and solitude, and time for connection and shared stories  

- Nourishing meals and meaningful conversations  

- A community of women to continue walking alongside you  

This isn’t about striving or achieving. It’s about coming back to yourself, to what already lives inside you. It is also about opening  to the support of the group through shared meals and experiences.

There’s no grand vision or flashy promise here—just a commitment. A commitment to support you as you navigate your leadership journey, rooted in who you are and what you stand for. We’ll help you uncover your own answers (and questions), and empower you to create a new way of living as you move forward. Walking Wild is about creating meaningful, lasting change—on your terms.
