Vision Quest
"I participated in a dream come true vision quest last year. WomanQuest gave me an opportunity to expand my courage and stretch my perceptions. Most importantly, I connected to nature listening to its wisdom. The answers I received from the trees and streams and Mother Earth filled me with joy as I reflected more deeply about my authenticity and who I AM in the world."
- Teri Wiggans, Boone, NC
"It is truly a challenge to find words to describe the positive impact WomanQuest has had on my life. I am not the same woman I was before I participated. I have more confidence and feel more comfortable inside my own skin. The support and encouragement I received from this circle of women has helped me face and overcome some of the darkest and most challenging times of my life. I continue to feel nurtured by my Quest experiences."
- Amy Fan, West Jefferson, NC
"While it felt a bit scary to try because I had no camping experience, which did not matter, my WomanQuest was absolutely remarkable! The atmosphere the leaders created was so welcoming, and deep sharing within our group was gentle and easy."
- Anne Harrington, Louisville, KY
"I haven't had such 'knowings' before. They both have made me aware that we have the power to know and see more, if only we will calm our minds and let go of "doing", and just "be" for a while."
- Sheri Bistreich, Statesville, NC
"I continue to savor, learn from, and grow from this experience. I wish something like this for all people."

"In the weeks since my return I am told I look different. I am behaving differently as well. Standing strong in the face of difficult circumstances. Being true to myself even as some decisions challenge my beliefs and my faith. Reinforcement of the message that even in the darkest moments, there is light and the night will pass. More important, that I am able to comfort and support myself in that time of deep fear."
- Deepika Nath, Newton, MA
"As the women returned from their solo time on the quest, the guides noted that some walked more proudly, spoke with more authority, stood more grounded in their bodies. The energy of the group had shifted; these were women empowered with new vision. Each woman’s story inspired and energized us all."
