UNTAMED
an elemental journey through the wild archetypes of the self
Join us for an immersive container and unearth who you really are.
We are in an age of remembrance. There was a time in the ancient world when we would weave stories and myths, bend binaries, and look to the more-than-human world as a way to understand our identities, and to make sense of the world. As the years passed, this approach was replaced by an egocentric worldview, held by many who sought control, ownership and dominion over the land.
Within each of us is the remembrance of a different pathway, but we cannot simply ignore thousands of years of history as we look back and seek to reclaim. Instead, it is time for a collective re-awakening of this interconnected worldview that honours who we are, as part of the earth, in this time.
Know that you have everything you need within you to awaken your wild self; you don't need to create anything new. Instead, we will invite you to rouse this dormant fragment, to reignite the flame, looking to science, systems and logic, but also myth, magic and alchemy.
Are you ready? It’s time to remember the wild within.
For us, to be wild is to be untamed, free from unwanted restrictions, empowered to make our own choices, to truly be our sovereign selves, to be alive. The call of the wild is an invitation to come home to ourselves; to return to the earth. To simply exist in our natural state as part of something bigger. Unburdened. Uninhibited. Untamed. Our pathway is to reclaim and reframe a vision of being wild that feels empowering, liberating and uplifting.
“Untamed was indescribable. I felt so privileged to have Maddy and Eleanor as my guides. The intimacy of the group coupled with the richness and diversity of the content made it truly special. Seeing the world through Maddy and Eleanor’s eyes, I was able to make sense of parts of myself that had mystified me for decades.”

What can I expect?
Untamed is an exploration of the fragments of your beautiful, whole, sacred wild self. Immerse yourself in ancient archetypal wisdom, moving through the lens of the four elements - earth, air, fire, water - to awaken your awareness, and deepen your pilgrimage back to self.
This is a journey of remembrance, of knowing that beneath the surface there is magic to be unearthed, that wound tightly in tangling roots and ecosystems, your wild self waits for you.
In the six-month programme you will unearth your soul values, connect with your ancestors, attune to the rhythms of the earth, smash binaries in favour of ecosystems, sit with what faith means for you, break down masks, embrace pleasure, and feel the power of your unique wild essence.
If you are ready to weave and dream the tendrils of this new way of being, Untamed is for you.

“I thought my Untamed journey would be learning how to be a new version of myself, however as I walked the untamed path, I heard familiarity in the darkness, smelled scents that scratched my unconscious, stepped into mythical waters and learnt my name.
The untamed journey was an anchor to myself, a place in which I could learn and witness the truth that I had only ever heard whispers of.
Untamed helped me to stop searching, and to recognise my own self, the raw unfiltered version that has been waiting to be seen. With story, words and unapologetic permissions I have begun to shed the cloak of expectation.”

ACTIVATION RESOURCES
In this foundational session and accompanying resources, you’ll be introduced to our WILD principles and Rewilding Wheel (if you’ve not seen them before!) as well as the concept of the self, and other tools we may use in the programme (archetypes, resonance, astrology, mythology, symbols etc). You’ll also complete a holistic assessment to recognise your current relationship with your wild self and placement with the wider ecosystem.
PROGRAMME SESSIONS
There are four modules that make up the Untamed programme, each inspired by an elemental association: earth, air, fire and water. Each module has two live calls - the first is called Awakening, and introduces you to key concepts and approaches; the second is called Deepening, and invites you to journey beneath the surface, integrating concepts and considering their relevance to your own life-path. The sessions will fuse together sacred space-holding, guided soul journeys, reflective prompts, intuitive action and more, to create alchemical magic!
SUPPORT SESSIONS
During the programme, you’ll also have free access to our membership community, The Grove, which will act as a wider support system for your rewilding journey. You’ll be able to join others in our virtual woodland clearing for lunar circles, soulful season ceremonies, seasonal workshops, and more!
