"I knew this was going to be extremely special and unique, but I had no idea just how much impact Carleigh’s teachings and presence would have on my life… 

Her expertise, stories, practices, vulnerability and overall calming nature has influenced me in a way that will stay with me forever. I am beyond grateful to have been able to be a part of her teachings and can only hope for more opportunities in the future. I can’t recommend Carleigh enough." — Cade

“This was life-changing and soul-nourishing. Carleigh’s stories, teaching, questions and healings are simple, practical and deeply relevant to being human, surviving and living.” —Simone 

“When I saw Carleigh on ‘Alone’ I thought to myself then, I want whatever that is. I couldn’t believe that I could get training from someone whose mental fortitude surpassed every contestant, not just my opinion, or any survival experts that I have seen.   Carleigh taught me how crucial the discipline of living in the moment is to achieving peace. Having a meditation area, minutely observing nature and journaling my observations, knowing how to draw my circle, are tangible things that I can do to connect and to live to the fullest. 

I now understand what it means to live in the moment, and having learned this, time doesn’t feel like it’s rushing by. It feels as though time has slowed down for me. I use Carleigh’s lessons every single day… and I’m very honored to be a student of hers.—Glenna

“Carleigh’s wisdom is invaluable, in every call there has been such insight beyond any natural knowledge I've ever encountered.” —Andrew

“I have had transformation, an Inner tranquility and greater outward connection. I am the best version of myself that I have ever been.” —Marian

Course Reviews

 

"I knew going in that the Connecting With Place course was going to be extremely special and unique, but I had no idea just how much impact Carleigh’s teachings and presence would have on my life. Her expertise, stories, practices, vulnerability and overall calming nature has influenced me in a way that will stay with me forever. I am beyond grateful to have been able to be a part of her teachings and can only hope for more opportunities in the future. I can’t recommend Carleigh enough."

“Connecting with Place is life changing and soul nourishing. Carleigh’s stories, teaching, questions and healings are simple, practical and deeply relevant to being human, surviving and living. The course is beautifully held and balanced. The group calls were a space of joyful connection and wove together the teaching of skills, applications to our sit area practices and doorways to curiosity. I’m deeply grateful for the personal calls, which allowed for a vulnerability and added a depth and interconnectedness to my journey. My intention for this course was to re-inspire my lost sit area practice. What I learned is that going to my sit area brings me more peace, and that I can choose that for myself. And working with Carleigh feels a lot like going to my sit area, it’s brought me more peace.”

— Simone, Connecting With Place 2021

“As a seeker of peace and purpose, I have learned a great deal from following Carleigh. She is a strong, smart, caring wonder woman who is extremely connected to the earth. She succeeds not only as a teacher of survival methods (knife-work, fungi identification, fire-making, to name only a few) but she also performs healing therapy in the Niasziih tradition. I have absolutely benefited from her informative lectures, posts and experiences.'‘
