Cowgirl Wild: A Weekend for Women with Horses & Wolves in Julian, CA

Clarissa Pinkola Estés, Ph.D., author of Women Who Run With the Wolves, described: “Within every woman there is a wild and natural creature, a powerful force, filled with good instincts, passionate creativity, and ageless knowing.” Her name is “Wild Woman.” And she dwells in that “place in time where the spirit of women and the spirit of wolf meet.” Discover this place within you among women, wolves, and horses this winter and spring.
