What if the Wilderness Within held the key to your deepest truth and freedom…
WALK YOUR WILDERNESS. CLAIM YOUR FREEDOM.
Your inner wilderness holds the map to your truest self. It’s the place where shadow meets light, where the stories you’ve carried no longer define you, and where courage opens the path to lasting freedom.
The Wilderness Walk® is a transformational path of personal and professional awakening. Rooted in psychology, physiology, and spirituality, we guide individuals and leaders through shadow work, highly impactful embodiment practices, and deep inner exploration to reclaim the freedom, wholeness, and power that has always been within.
Unlike linear models of growth, The Wilderness Walk® follows the spiral of evolution—an ever-deepening journey that draws you closer to your essence with every turn. While people of all ages resonate with this path, it speaks most profoundly to those in midlife: individuals standing at a threshold, ready to release outdated patterns, embody their truth, and live with greater freedom and purpose.
Through immersive retreats, life-changing programs, and professional coach certification trainings, you are invited to face your shadows with courage, embody the wisdom they hold, and step into a life of authentic freedom and impact.
This is where transformation becomes a way of life. Begin your journey today.
NAVIGATING THE WILDERNESS WITHIN

Through intimate storytelling, hard-earned wisdom, and soul-stirring insight, Suzanne Hanna leads you into the heart of your own transformation.

Reclaiming Your Worth

TWO TRANSFORMATIONAL PATHS. ONE WILDERNESS WALK.
At The Wilderness Walk®, we recognize that growth takes many forms. Some transformations are deeply personal, while others ripple into your work, relationships, and leadership. That’s why we’ve created two interconnected pathways—so you can choose the one that speaks most to your journey.
Personal Pathway
For those navigating midlife transitions or seeking deeper healing, this pathway helps you return to your truest self. Through shadow work, deep embodiment practices, immersive retreats, life-changing courses and coaching programs, you’ll release old patterns, dissolve limiting beliefs, and reclaim your freedom. Whether you’re facing change, longing for clarity, or ready to live more aligned with what matters most to you, the personal pathway offers tools and guidance to support your reclamation and renewal.
Professional Pathway
For coaches, therapists, leaders, and change-makers, the professional pathway offers a comprehensive shadow coach certification and leadership training. Through our Foundational, Advanced, and Leadership programs, you’ll learn to integrate shadow work and embodiment practices into your practice or organization. This training equips you to expand your impact, guide others through profound change, and become a transformational leader who changes lives from the inside out.
Whichever path you choose, you are stepping onto a trail of courage, freedom, and lasting change.
MEET YOUR GUIDE THROUGH THE WILDERNESS
Suzanne Hanna is a psychotherapist, shadow work expert, transformational coach, and author of Navigating the Wilderness Within. She doesn’t just guide others through transformation—she embodies it. After walking 1,000 miles across the country in a radical act of healing and restoration, Suzanne emerged with a rare and sacred map: the path home to the truest self.
Her journey—through heartbreak, betrayal, loss, and rebirth—infuses every step she takes with those she serves. Suzanne’s work weaves together psychology, spirituality, and embodiment, guiding people through shadow work, emotional healing, and midlife renewal.
To walk with Suzanne is to descend into the depths of your own unfolding. To stand beside her is to remember you were never lost—only buried beneath the weight of what was never truly yours. Her work is a pilgrimage into the shadow, a homecoming to truth, and a reclamation of the radiant, untamed self that’s been there all along—waiting.
TESTIMONIES FROM WILDERNESS WALKERS
ENTER THE WILDERNESS WITHIN
Walking through your wilderness is both a practice and a passage.
It is a place where every part of you is invited back into the firelight..
Not to be judged.
Not to be fixed.
But to be witnessed, integrated, and finally set free.
This is where you lay down the armor.
Where the stories that have bound you unravel into earth and ash.
Where you remember that your wildest, most radiant self was never lost—only waiting for you to come home.
The next step is not forward.
It is downward, inward, deeper.
Because the deeper we go, the freer we become.
