WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO BE "UNTAMED"

Most of us feel it.

That something is wrong.

The system is off.

Set up for failure.

Stress, materialism, complexity, chemicals, information deluge.

To turn us into compliant consumers.

Numbed.

Sterile.

Dependent.

Programmed.

Preferably with a pulse, but never really alive.

What has happened to us as a species?

The ones that used to roam the plains freely, apex predator, alert and agile.

Present and grounded, connected to earth, part of the natural world.

Simple, if at times harsh, rhythms of days and seasons.

Primal.

Vibrant.

Fierce.

Free.

All but foreign concepts to today's matrix dwellers.

Working hard, no doubt, like an ant building a nest on the beach that keeps getting destroyed by waves works hard.

Working while poisoned

While bombarded with programming

While surrounded by unprecedented stressors and things designed to addict and numb.

It's nearly impossible to thrive in that environment.

Which is why it's time to turn the tables.

Time to create a new paradigm.

Because you just want to feel yourself again.

To know the natural joy of living you tasted once as a child before it was quickly drilled out of you.

To follow ideas that inspire you, and have the energy to act on those ideas swiftly.

To wake up each day with creative power, feeling master of your own reality.

To be fulfilling no one's expectations of who you should be besides what you KNOW is right for yourself.

To laugh in the sun and run like the wind just because you can.

To have full energy, clarity, and focus to create massive impact for good for the world and those you love.

Ultimately you just want to reclaim your power

and remember what it felt like to live

UNTAMED

"Many people die at 25 and aren't buried until they're 75."
- Benjamin Franklin

I work with driven but burned-out professionals who want to:
- Eliminate chronic stress and overwhelm (and the mental and physical symptoms this causes)
- regain clarity, energy, and flow throughout the day
- feel complete alignment with purpose, with no distractions
- ultimately, have the POWER to realize the dreams you have been bestowed with, and never feel stuck again

Most people who are looking for freedom don't realize what they really lack is power.

That's why I focus on empowerment - helping YOU unlock your innate, primal, unstoppable power.

MY STORY

Hi I'm River.

I'm a coach, retreat leader, and wilderness guide who helps stressed-out professionals regain control of their life with clear purpose and energy.

I've spent much of my life straddling two worlds: the corporate world and the wilderness.

I've seen firsthand how spending too much time on screens and being in 24/7 production-mode can wreak havoc on one's life. I've also experienced how awesome it is to recover from that and enjoy the magic of being alive again.

I used to hate my life. I originally got my laurels in the world of finance, accumulating certifications that felt empty. After years of spreadsheets, meetings, red tape, and a constant hustle to make systems "better" but no one happier, I realized I was fully trapped in the corporate grind.

Something felt fundamentally wrong. I could function and convince myself it was fine and normal, but beneath that I felt unsatisfied, knowing I was stressed and staring at a screen 24/7, with a lifestyle pretty much optimized for destroying wellbeing.

(matrix me)

I faced the choice of either giving up entirely or starting a new life.

I decided to devote myself to becoming the best, most-aligned version of myself possible.

I recognized something was missing, something so fundamental I had forgotten it in our collective rush to advance ever-complex systems:

I had totally lost connection with my self. Which meant I had lost my power.

Ultimately, all the ensuing years of training and experimentation on routines, fitness, nutrition, mindset, and business were about one thing: reclaiming my power.

I just wanted to be able to wake up looking forward to a day of doing what I loved with people I loved.

I just wanted to not feel constantly pressured and pulled in a million directions for once, have some time to breathe, figure out what I even wanted to do with my life - and then do it.

I wanted to be able to take a day off and actually enjoy relaxing instead of feeling guilty unless I was responding to urges to catch up on everything.

And all of that felt 100%, completely impossible. I felt I had no bandwidth to figure things out.

I hit rock bottom. I know what its like to absolutely dread each day and loath the person in the mirror. I know exactly what chronic stress, clinical depression and anxiety, chronic health conditions, and addictions feel like.

It's a continual process. It gets more fun with time.

When it comes to how to live YOUR life, you should actually assume I know nothing. Test things for yourself.

It is ALL an internal game, and mastering yourself is the key to mastering life.

Tapping into your intuition from a place of inspired joy and health will compound into tremendous long-term returns, unlocking a natural flow of success.

Your already hold the keys to doing just that - and Nature will amplify your innate abilities like nothing else will.

Screens are wonderful tools, but terrible masters.

Break out of the matrix. Reconnect with your most innate, primal, powerful nature.

Then see what happens.
