Nature Inspired Book Club

6:30pm every first Wednesday bimonthly

McDonald Farm, Naperville, IL

Join us at The Conservation Foundation (TCF) as we discuss a new work each month! Whether it’s fiction, nonfiction or poetry, we’ll come together to learn, share and be inspired.

No need to register or pay a fee, just bring your ideas, questions and open minds as we delve into works that deepen our relationship to the land, ourselves and each other.

To find out what we’re reading, go to TCF’s events page or follow Prairie Pathways on Instagram.

This is the time to return to our roots and remember what it means to envision from the place where soul sees. We will journey into the forest where sensory immersion, guided breathwork and writing practices will allow us to speak our 2025 visions into existence. We will gather in Circle, engage in a self-honoring ritual and close our time together with a sound meditation. Light refreshments will be served.

Please note that this is an entirely outdoor experience and is capped at 10 participants. Register by December 21 to secure your space.

Past Events

In addition to guiding Writing W.I.L.D., forest therapy and rewilded yoga practices, I facilitate createshops. Past createshops have included making vision calendars, restoryation exercises (where we create new stories for and about ourselves), as well as custom events.  

I also speak on many themes at the intersection of creativity, nature and living a life “lit up.”

Past clients have included corporate, nonprofit and educational institutions, as well as private sector groups and individuals. 

What they’re saying,

  • Mary Lou Wehrli

    “Thank you for presenting an impactful and unforgettable Prairie Spirit Journey. Everyone marveled at the experience and learning.”

  • Maggie Weber

    “My experience on the forest therapy walk with Kristy was magical! I did her walk with friends for my birthday and I felt like a little kid again, exploring the natural world around me and delighting in my senses and the experience.

    Kristy's open and playful nature was a delight and I can't wait to do another walk with her and see what journey I get taken on.”

  • Luna Velez

    Kristy's Writing W.I.L.D. class is one of the best gifts I've given myself. The very first impression I had of Kristy was warm, vibrant, wise and playful. The way she incorporates her love and respect for nature, along with her creative artistic vibe made her class a world of pure imagination, and freedom to be childlike, playful and WILD.

    Her writing and art prompts guided and helped me to tap into my heart and my own world of pure imagination, giving me the confidence and courage to Write W.I.L.D. and share what I wrote with others.

    I invite you and highly recommend you gift yourself one of Kristy's sessions and tap into your inner child, be playful and Write W.I.L.D.!”
