ABOUT ME

Embark on a powerful journey of self-discovery as you move toward clarity and your full potential through an exploration of holistic insights, transformative stories, and practical guidance with the Tellurian Path Nature Immersion Programs, based on the natural wisdom found in The Nature Book Series.
Since 2009, S. A.

In addition, she is the founder and program director of The Lofty Arthouse and host at Sign of the Pines Yurt Adventures, an off-grid, nature immersion experience.
