The Land as a Gathering Place
Yesterday, we reopened The Untamed Gathering Place, a space that has been shaping itself as much as we have been shaping it. This land has held so much—storms and stillness, breaking and rebuilding, grief and healing. And through it all, it has remained a place where women come together, not just to connect, but to do the deep work of healing—both individually and collectively.
For years, I’ve been on my own journey of unlearning, stepping away from one-sided patterns of showing up for others and learning the beauty of reciprocity. This land has been my greatest teacher in that. It reminds me that true belonging isn’t about constantly giving without receiving, but about creating spaces where we are all held, supported, and seen.
The women who walk this land with me—those pictured and those represented in spirit—are part of that unfolding story. They bring their own journeys, their own wounds, their own wisdom. And in doing so, they help make this place what it is: a sanctuary for healing, connection, and transformation.
Opening this land again is more than just clearing trails and making space—it’s about honoring what it has always been: a place that welcomes, holds, and restores. A place where we show up for ourselves and each other. A place that reminds us we are never alone.
