What you will learn
I started creating this 12 month seasonal journey by drawing on ancient practices and modern somatic theories, aiming to provide a transformative experience that encourages deep personal growth and healing. Throughout our time together, you'll find that I've meticulously woven each module's content to help you reawaken your innate connection to nature and your own body. As you progress, you'll not only cultivate resilience and self-awareness but also learn to trust the wisdom that lies within you. The carefully designed activities and reflections we'll explore are intended to fit seamlessly into your life, offering a supportive, well-structured path to fostering a more harmonious and empowered sense of self. Think of it as your own personal toolkit, one you can reach into whenever you need to center, ground, and find your way back to the wild inner spaces that make you uniquely you.

About Your Instructor
As a Board Certified Nurse Coach specializing in Nervous System Resiliency through Nature Connection and Somatics, I guide purpose-driven individuals on a transformative journey to rediscover joy, cultivate resilience, and reconnect with their authentic selves.
My path to coaching springs from a deep love for both the intricacies of the human body and the healing power of nature. With over two decades in healthcare, I witnessed the profound toll that chronic stress and disconnection take on wellbeing. This understanding led me to explore holistic approaches that honor the whole person rather than simply addressing symptoms.
My own experience with burnout became the catalyst for transformation. Through coaching, somatic practices and nature connection, I found a path back to vitality and presence. This healing journey inspired me to create a unique coaching approach that weaves together these powerful elements, helping others find their way home to themselves.
This course is based on my book, Reconnect to the Wild Within: Seasonal Practices to Embody Your Primal Nature. Through these teachings, I invite you to forge a deep connection with both the natural world around you and the wild wisdom within your own body. My hope is that you'll discover how these two forms of nature are inseparable, and that by honoring one, you naturally awaken the other.
Together, we'll explore practices that help you listen to your body's innate intelligence, attune to seasonal rhythms, and reclaim the resilience that is your birthright.

Working with Darcie was a transformative experience. At a time when I was stepping into a new professional role, she helped me bring clarity to my goals, my values, and the kind of leader I wanted to become. Her guidance gave me the confidence to navigate challenges with purpose rather than uncertainty.
What makes her truly exceptional is the way she encouraged me to embrace my own story. She reminded me that my experiences, both personal and professional, carry wisdom worth sharing.

Receiving coaching from Darcie has helped me set out a plan for reaching both new work and personal goals: and along the way provided me with helpful tools for reaching those goals.
Through this coaching experience I've gained courage, confidence, and insights about myself, that will help me embark on a new path ahead. I am thankful and grateful for her coaching skills, the experience she brings to the topics we covered, as well as for her kind and genuine character.
