Support the Work
What unites us? A deep desire for healing and a growing awareness that self love isn’t selfish.
Everything we do is designed to support participants as they embark on this journey to blaze a trail to self-love.
Your generosity makes this possible.
Hiking My Feelings relies on the generosity of donors to bring our mission to life. To date, thousands of people across the US have experienced the healing power of nature with our organization, and we’re just getting started.
We never want finances to be a barrier to beginning the healing journey and your contributions allow us to provide the Hiking My Feelings programming to individuals who are ready to take the leap, regardless of financial status.

Love Letters from Our Community
-
“While chatting with a fellow hiker I randomly brought up my sexual assault. I went on and on about it until I paused myself. This was the first time in many years that I could speak about my sexual assault and not cry. This was MAJOR. This retreat brought out 3 major breakthroughs for me: my Cervical Cancer, my faith and my sexual assault. I am very blessed to have attended this retreat, blessed to have met such wonderful human beings and blessed to have come across Hiking My Feelings. From the bottom of my heart, thank you all for what you do.”

“The community element of this program had the most impact on me. Having a safe space to be vulnerable and honest about my feelings/struggles/fears gave me the strength to face them. And even though the program has technically ended, I have a loving community and a deep well of resources to draw from as I continue the life-long work of self love.”

“Hiking has always healed me. Hiking Catalina with Hiking my Feelings, and a community of humans who arrived with their own battle wounds and stories healed me in a way I needed most. Although I may never see some of these people again, many I will. And all of them will continue to take up space in my existence as pieces of what has shape-shifted me into becoming braver to exist in ways that I may have thought to be impossible to reach as I was deep in my navigation of change. So much gratitude for this experience, this community, and this reconnection with myself-in nature-one step at a time.”

“I am not sure I will be able to fully capture in words all of the ways that BYOT positively impacted me! The weekly family meetings had the biggest impact and were definitely a safe place for me, where I felt supported and that my voice and experience were valued. All of the activities and topics provided encouraged me to dig a little deeper to learn more about myself and heal from my trauma. I feel that being part of this community has motivated me to elevate my walks in the park to more challenging hikes in the woods. I am truly a believer that #hikingmyfeelings works!”
