Jayne Goldheart is a Qoya teacher and founder of the Sisters of the Wild non-profit organization. I sat down to Jayne to talk about her pilgrimage walking 222 miles around Scotland, the healing powers of solitude, and what she’s learned about living a nomadic existence. This is a special episode because not only is Jayne a good friend of mine, it’s the first time I’ve had a repeat guest on the show so you may remember her from episode 7.
In this episode we talk about:
Why Jayne initially decided to settle down in London after her pilgrimage around Scotland and what’s drawn her back to nomadic living
What initially called Jayne to complete a 222 mile solo walk around Scotland, what it looked like on a day-to-day basis, what she learned spiritually from the experience, and how it led to her non-profit foundation, Sisters of the Wild
The healing power of solitude and the magic that can happen when we allow ourselves to be alone with our thoughts
How Jayne’s relationship with her body changed through the experience of her walk
What her relationship with stuff is now that she lives out of two suitcases, and the emotional journey it took to get there
Jayne’s travelling altar and how these precious possessions act as a touchstone for her wherever in the world she is at the time
The Wisdom Gathering that will bring together 60 sisters of the wild (you could be one of them) in Wales in September to share workshops, ceremony, and ritual
How you can apply to receive £1111 to empower you to have your own wild experience or achieve your big dream
What it means to be a sister of a wild and why so many people are feeling drawn back to nature as they become dissatisfied with living a disconnected life
What it took for Jayne to settle into and become comfortable with nomadic life after 18 months of living that way
The downsides of this lifestyle and the toll that it’s taken on Jayne’s health
Her simple advice (and heartfelt warning!) for anyone who feels called to travel more or live a nomadic existence
