Projects in Development

what we are creating

At Wild Hearts, our work is both intuitive and grounded.

Each experience, whether a circle, retreat, or journey, unfolds in response to what is alive in the moment, yet is always held within a strong and trusted framework. Our foundations come from evidence-based methodologies in body-led coaching, psychotherapy, somatics, trauma healing, and group dynamics.

This combination allows us to stay deeply responsive to each person and each group, while ensuring that every process is guided by approaches that are researched, reliable, and rooted in decades of practice.

These foundations bring safety, depth, and coherence to our work. They offer clear pathways for navigating emotion, trauma, and transformation, while leaving space for the mystery, creativity, and authenticity that arise in real human connection.

The methodologies that inform Wild Hearts include circle work, somatic intelligence, trauma healing, mindfulness, parts work, and depth psychology. Each offers a distinct lens, and together they create the living backbone of our coaching, therapy, and community experiences.

Heart Intelligence (Heart iQ) & Heart-Led Circle Work

Based on the work of Christian Pankhurst and Tej Steiner, these methodologies emphasize emotional intelligence in groups. They use circle structures to create safety, resonance, and honest communication. By engaging the collective intelligence of the group, participants experience faster insight, deeper healing, and more authentic connection than through individual reflection alone.

Internal Family Systems (IFS)

Developed by Richard Schwartz, IFS is a systemic model of the psyche that works with “parts” of the self. It provides a framework for engaging protectors, exiles, and the core Self with compassion and curiosity. In practice, it helps clients integrate conflicting aspects of themselves and reduces shame, inner conflict, and self-sabotage.
