that somewhere inside the delicate
skin of my body, there pumps
an 8-pound female horse heart,
giant with power, heavy with blood.
Don’t you want to believe it?
—Ada Limon
The Waymaker
To the everyday pilgrim in pursuit of handmaking a soul-led life, we invite you into a three day retreat of myth and magic, signs and symbols, uncovering unique metaphors and meaning, telling your soul story and having the truth mirrored back by both
humans and horses.
“I like their lady horse swagger,
after winning. Ears up, girls, ears up!”
—from How to Triumph Like a Girl by Ada Limon
The Waymaker
The Waymaker is a woman who carries what she creates, shapes and forms forward: She Who Makes The Way. The Waymaker is designed to leave a soul mark. For those who long to invite more authenticity, wisdom and wildness into their life. This time together will offers insight and inspiration, themes and teachings, questions and soul tasks, guided meditations and journeys that uncover symbols and stories, magic and metaphors, the myths you have been living and the archetypes woven into your inner and outer world. There will be Shamanic journeys, healing with horses, dreamwork, time and space for being, becoming and belonging (alone and together), in community and circle, with beautiful food, soulful interactions and surprises from Spirit.

Gray Mountain Ranch
Welcome to Gray Mountain Ranch—a soulful sanctuary nestled on 40 private acres in the foothills of Colorado’s Rocky Mountains. Here, wide open vistas stretch toward red cliffs and endless sky. The land breathes stillness. Horses roam freely—gentle guides on your journey inward. You’ll feel it the moment you arrive: a deep exhale, a quiet invitation from the earth to slow down, listen, and reconnect. This is a place of bonfires under starlit skies. Quiet mornings on the porch, wrapped in a blanket, watching the herd graze while birdsong and mountain breezes move through the trees. A place to root, dream, and remember who you are beneath the noise. Gray Mountain Ranch is wild, raw, and real. It’s not curated—it’s alive. Here, the land holds you. The horses guide you. The sacred nourishes you.
