Hi, I'm Dakota.
I've been walking this path since 1992, teaching, journeying, and making the kind of medicine that meets you exactly where you are. Sound journeys, ritual work, and a wheel with room for every direction you're standing in right now.

The Wheel of YourWILDBecoming
Come alive to the life you're living.
- Live with Dakota
- 9-week arcs
- Single arcs open all year
You scheduled over the wonder. It's still down there, under the calendar.
One full turn of the Celtic year, October to October. Four arcs, nine weeks each, and work you do outside on whatever ground you're standing on. Asphalt counts.
The full year sold in October and opens again next fall. Single arcs stay available all the way around, and each one opens before it begins.
Hear when the next arc opens.
Get on the list and you'll know the day the next arc opens, and the week the full year comes back around.

What this work sounds like
Thank you Dakota! The Wisdom you share is deep and authentic. Your teaching method is very intentional and easy to follow, even for newbies like me 😊
I came to this class already with experience with shamanic journey, but had lost touch with the practice over the last several years. This class was a fantastic tool to the energize this amazing practice. I learned many things I had not specifically learned before. Dakota have a wonderful way of explaining how to journey, how to connect with guides, and the nuances of different worlds. I am excited for what will come over the next days and weeks as I develop my relationship with my guides.
I don't know why yet, but I was pulled back with 11 min left. I will journey again as it was healing. You gave me hope. I need to reflect on this one for a bit. Thank you for providing the guidance!
