Retreat Facilitators
Nicole Jefferson - MA, LPCC, NCC
My most crucial long-term relationship has been with the great outdoors; my first therapist was Mother Nature. I have used my time in this mighty space to align the things that make my heartbeat: people, nature, the power of self-development, and a deep knowing of self-love. The outdoors is a powerful resource that helps us feel grounded and at peace, immersed in all Mother Nature offers. My approach is holistic, mindful-based, somatic, and authentic. My goal for people is to feel good in their skin and reach their true SELF-potential. Wilding Women is an extension of the container I created within Wilding Therapy. My passion for helping women land in their power is where Wilding Women’s Retreats evolved from.
Tamara Yakaboski - PhD
Tamara Yakaboski is a resilience coach and consultant, climate practitioner, and impact strategist who helps folks continuously rebuild resilience within in order to serve our communities while being in right relationship with Nature.
Having experienced early menopause that started in my late 30s, I found myself without adequate preparation or mentorship. This Wilding Women’s retreat feels important to co-facilitate so that you can feel empowered and prepared for your transformational journey. Menopause has been and continues to be one of the greatest catalysts for my own radical change and transformation into more intentional and value-aligned life and work. I want this for everyone.
I have over two decades in research, adult education, and women’s leadership. I continue to expand with training in climate and health, creativity, somatic, and therapeutic interventions. I’ve published and presented my research worldwide, and I continue to build frameworks to implement via coaching and consulting that support individual and collective growth and development. My vision is to create community, co-learning, collaboration, and care that weaves feminism, depth psychology, mindfulness, mind-body (somatic) work, nature-based activities, and community impact for the collective good of Mama Earth.
