Over the past few weeks, we’ve been talking about some of the more creative ways that some therapists are working with their clients.
Because the truth is, I always love the sheer variety of different ways that we can serve our clients.
So today, I thought I’d share my own story with you, and tell you about a slightly crazy thing I did back in the day. 😁
Today, you’ll hear the wild story of how I turned a simple observation about some of my clients into "Secret Adventures for Courageous Women" – a monthly experiential program that ran for three years and changed everything.
You’ll hear:
- The one (amazing!) thing that happened to each woman who joined one of my experiences. (Every. Single. Time.
- The exact, 7-step framework I used to design my experiences (spoiler alert: one of them may involve dancing 💃).
- Some of the more surprising things that can happen during experiential therapy (even when you plan carefully down to the last detail).
- How I learned to create experiences that worked beautifully, powerfully, and repeatedly (… plus - the ONE thing I would have changed).
Y'all, this was never just about the experience itself.
It was about watching women discover they could handle way more than they ever imagined. It was about seeing them come back as completely different people. A foot taller, eyes brighter, empowered in ways that surprised us both…
And here's the thing – you may have your own version of this hiding in plain sight.
Maybe it’s time to stop talking and start doing.
Give this a listen, and then ask yourself: How could you introduce even a tiny experiential component to your client work?
I'd love to hear what adventures your mind starts to cook up!

P.S. “WHOA Wendy - THAT was crazy… and also cool!”
