Courting the Wild Erotic is a journey into the energy of Eros as a portal to the pleasure of being alive, to our most authentic expressions, to the fullness of our love, and to the fountain of our creativity.

It is a place where Nature, the Erotic, and Creativity intersect and support each other.

The Container

This is an intimate container, limited to just 10 participants. 

Here, we address our very personal relationships with ourselves, our sexuality, our creative genius and nature. Yet, we are not alone. Calling upon our belonging in community and landscape, your Courting the Wild Erotic journey is supported by a cohort whose stories resonate with your own. Your journey is also supported by your more-than-human kin and the wild world. These vital support systems are woven into teach step of this program, creating a grounded tapestry of resonance, safety, and strength. This sacred and nourishing container offers radical permission to show up in our vulnerability and authenticity, so that we may truly connect with each other and our deepest self. 

This program best serves those who feel the call to transform how they move through life, romancing a lifestyle that is more present, aligned with nature, and erotically liberated.

Courting the Wild Erotic is an embodied journey sprouting from the feminine (or yin) perspective, supporting the exploration of the Erotic for people who were socialized as women.

We welcome all women, as well as non-binary and gender non-conforming folks who are interested in exploring this perspective and connecting with the inner feminine.

    "I loved everything about Courting the Wild Erotic. I feel like I got permission from day one to dive really deep into all my wounds in a very non-scary way that brought beautiful results each and every week. I also feel very empowered to continue exploring the themes that surfaced for me as I continue working with the invitations and creating all the arty things ready to come out now. This experience has really profoundly benefited my healing journey and has unexpectedly been a catalyst for finally bringing in some more fun."

  • MEGAN, 2021 PARTICIPANT

    "For those who want to be more more sensual, more joyful, more wild and more in touch with the divine feminine within, here is the opportunity. I have spent the past two years delving deeper into that soft, melty, juicy part of me and found this course to be another excellent stepping stone on that journey. In a world that values strength and ambition, Courting the Wild Erotic provides an experience and a community where we can surrender to our own femininity and embrace the power that comes from gentleness, compassion, grace and eroticism."

  • MADDIE, 2021 PARTICIPANT

    "I have a deep appreciation for what I learned about myself and eros while taking this course. While much of the course was geared towards activities guided around the self, such as journaling and meditations, the written lessons were also full of information that was fascinating to read through while I sat by a fire. This program gave me a series of practices and ideas to use moving forward to continue learning about my creativity and eros. I learned where my creativity lives and how to harness it, as well as how to identify when it is being stifled and how to tap into it during such times. Jacqueline does an excellent job guiding her cohort members through the experience in a way that meets their needs and fits into their lives. Her dedication to the people in the course is clear, and she cared deeply about ensuring that each and every one of us felt heard and supported throughout."

✺ Frequently asked questions ✺

  • I do not believe that "online course" does Courting the Wild Erotic justice, because above all else, it is an experiential journey.

    There are lessons incorporated into the online component & retreat that provide definitions, context to what we are doing, and why we are doing it. "Online course," however, implies a cerebral approach, or a traditional learning environment.

    I use the term "online journey" to describe this program because I am not interested in talking at you about dogma or teaching in a "traditional" classroom way.

    The realm of Eros is one that is nuanced, mysterious, taboo, poetic, sensual, and subtle. It is also an embodied, lived, and felt topic. I would be a fool to try to chop up such an animate force, as that would essentially take the erotic out of eros altogether.

    This is an embodied, spiraling  journey that goes beyond linear thinking, an exploration, and a direct dialogue with nature.

    I promise, you will learn a lot, but not in the way you may expect from your average online course.

  • This program encompasses the big picture of the erotic. There are a lot of programs, classes and retreats about the erotic— but most are focused on sexuality and pleasure. Which is fabulous, but limiting. Courting the Wild Erotic journeys through the erotic as the underlying force for our creative pursuits, and as a pathway to authenticity and purpose.

    Furthermore, Eros comes directly from Nature. Our greatest teacher on the erotic is the wild Earth. This program stands out in that each step of the way, there are specific invitations that ask you as a participant to be in direct relationship with the wild, learn from nature, and explore this powerful energy by engaging with the source of it. Nature is not just a tool, but the foundation on which the program is built.

    Finally, Courting the Wild Erotic is an experiential journey, meaning that while there are lessons, techniques and practices shared, the teachings come from your body, your imagination, your creative muse, and your lived experience. Rather than telling you what you should and shouldn't do or be, our approach is to be curious, invite you into deeper and deeper relationship with your experience of the Erotic, and to ask the right questions. Here, we facilitate self-trust by empowering you to listen closely to your inner wisdom.

  • Let me get one thing straight: All people are creative. Every single one of us. The unfortunate reality is that much like sexuality and sensualtiy, creativity tends to be repressed in "traditional" upbringings that require us to sit in classrooms and learn to regurgitate whatever the teacher tells us. a lucky percentage of us had the creative self nurtured, and thus grew up steeped in some of the more traditional "creative" pursuits such as writing, music, and visual art.

    However, you do NOT need to be an artist to be creative. Creativity can look like having an engaging conversation, decorating your house, creating an online course, or cooking dinner. It can also look like imagining a better world, or a more aligned version of yourself, and deciding to work toward that vision. Having a family? Arguably, the original form of creativity is making a baby. No matter who you are, you are creative.

    Sometimes, it just feels hard to access because we have been conditioned to believe that we are not creative. Plus, modernity asks us to live in ways that stifle creativity (and sensuality, and eroticism, and authenticity, etc...).

    This is important to pay attention to, and work with. Why? Because the world needs our imaginations, our creative expressions, and our self-realized purpose so that we can create a better world that is life-affirming.

    Creativity is a large component of this course because our sexual energy is also our creative life force energy. Our creativity, imagination, muse, and inner genius is too tightly linked to our aliveness, vitality, sexuality, sensuality and eroticism to ignore. In fact, it is quite beautiful that these two forces support each other.

    The more we heal our sexuality, the more we heal our creativity, and vice versa. The more we open the channels to creative and erotic expression, the closer we get to our purpose, authenticity, and soul-self. It is all connected.

  • Absolutely!! At Wild Wayfarer, we not only accept but embrace the perspectives of gender queer folks of all sexual orientations. We believe that you belong, and that your perspective enriches our cultural understanding of the Erotic.

    Gender identity is also an important topic to unpack in regard to this program, because the topic of our sexuality inherently requires us to acknowledge the ways in which gender and sex impacts it. For folks who do not fit into the binary of hetero-patriarchy, I want to offer some clarity on our approach so that you can feel confident about joining this program.

    Courting the Wild Erotic is designed to embrace and integrate the Feminine (or yin) aspect of the self in our approach, seeing the deep need for cultural and individual reclamation of this energy (regardless of gender or sex). It is also important to note that healing our relationship with the erotic requires us to look at how we have been culturally conditioned. This program centers around the experience of women and the unique ways in which they have been socialized, harmed and sexually repressed due to patriarchal constructs. That said, while there are thematic consistencies we address that many women face as a result of their socialization, it would be foolish to assume that only female-bodied women experience them. We acknowledge that the human experience is not black and white, which is why we take an experiential approach that welcomes the varied terrain of one's experiences with sexual and creative repression.

    I believe that this program can absolutely benefit trans women and non-binary folks who feel called to explore the Erotic from this perspective. I also hope that through open and welcomed conversations about the nuanced landscape of gender and queerness, this program can continue to become enriched by diverse perspectives.

  • Absolutely! Every single invitation in this program is designed to be sone solo. Courting the Wild Erotic deeply explores your personal relationship with the erotic. You do not need a partner or lover to complete this program.

  • Absolutely! This program focuses on your personal relationship with the Erotic. However, the benefits and outcomes of this program are guaranteed to have a ripple effect on your romantic and sexual relationships. What you embody and learn here will absolutely translate to how you approach partnered sex and romance.
