Strangers to Sisters

The journey doesn’t have to start with a trip.

The Honest Heart Community was built for women who are yearning for genuine sisterhood, whether they’ve traveled with us or not.

  • “How satisfying it is to discover the genuine beauty of other women and to share unfiltered companionship!"

    - Diane, Colorado

  • "I LOVED my time with HHJ rafting in Utah. The guides took care of all our physical needs, so we could just focus on filling our mental and spiritual needs with our hosts. I loved the camaraderie with the other women ~ I haven’t laughed that much in a very long time! We had time for quiet reflection and for considering what’s truly important. The trip helped me reset my priorities."

    - Karin, Washington

  • "I love the idea that travel and transformation lead to spiritual discovery, renewal, rejuvenation, new perspectives, and deeper empathy and love for others."

    - Jen, Colorado

  • "It was a gift to be immersed in an inner and outer journey of authentic relating, relating honestly to myself and to our sisters and companions on the way."

    - Evie, UK

  • “I was blown away by the opportunity to connect with an amazing group of women in a way I did not know was possible.”

    - Linda, Missouri

  • "This trip taught me that age is never a barrier if you want something enough and believe in an unlimited sense of who you are and what you express. Having an open and flexible attitude on life and what it presents to you is key to having a good experience."

    - Marianne, Colorado

  • "I experienced the joy of seeing that my desire to give my daughter a much-needed respite and possibly a reboot during a challenging time in her life was fulfilled. It was life-changing for both of us."

    - Melody, Missouri

  • "It gave me time to get quiet and listen to what my heart truly wants."

    - Jennifer, California

  • "I have so much gratitude for multigenerational learning and how fast people were able to dive deep with each other and truly be vulnerable. I feel that being unplugged, in nature and the space that HHJ created allowed for this to happen."

    - Devon, California

  • "This trip was like a date with myself!"

    - Stephanie, California

  • "My highlight? Meeting wonderful, thoughtful, caring individuals - participants and trip leaders alike."

    - Jean, California

  • "I learned that I need to push myself to do more things that are outside of my comfort zone. I realized that I need to return to my anchor point of Love and Spirituality more consistently. Finally, I realized that I love the water and need to live on it."

    - Becky, California

  • "I felt surrounded by nature's beauty and the spirituality that comes with that. Sharing, laughing and being vulnerable with amazing women. But mostly, my heart felt broken open in a way it hasn't been for years."

    - Megan, Missouri

  • "I experienced firsthand the power of 'waiting' when I let go of preconceived ideas of when the waiting should be over. I had decided the waiting was done and now was the time for the next step. As soon as I released that, the freedom and clarity I was looking for started to take some shape. "

    - Lori, Washington

  • "I expected an adventure on a river raft trip. I got that and SO much more--renewed belief in human connections, love among new friends, and great food in the outdoors!"

    - Jean, California

  • "It’s amazing how we all had our own journey and how beautiful it was to share it, not all trying to fix each other. We just trusted that we all had it in us to find what was important to us. And that, I think, is what makes this community so special: the fact that we're all equal. We're not like, someone's broken we gotta fix them or coddle them. Instead, it’s trust and I love that.”

    - Aileen, California

  • "I think it was such a safe place of integrity to really connect with what you really wanted.. I have never come home from a trip feeling so connected, and open, and safe, and loving. So for me.. I really found my sisters.. and I never even wanted to be in a group! This was so special, it felt like one."

    - Marianne, Netherlands

  • "At first I thought, ‘Ah, I don't really like traveling with a group. There's always some weird people.’ But I tell everybody now, there was not one weird person, there wasn't one weirdo, everybody was amazing. When I came home, because I live alone and work at home, I just missed being surrounded by these women.”

    - Kelly, California

  • "“It was a current of love that we were just carried along and we were all in it together.”

    - Jen, Colorado

  • “I valued getting to know a group of women in a more authentic, sincere, and honest way than I've ever experienced in my life. It’s a whole different type of friendship that evolved in just one week.. it brought such joy and happiness and peace of mind to me."

    - Janene, California

  • “Since I got back, I’ve been thinking a lot about how much I appreciate and value each of the women that I met in different ways. I reflect back on what unique and inspiring lives each of them have lived and shared in the groups around the dinner table, and I'm really grateful for all of that, for knowing each of them, even if it's just a little smattering."

    - Jean, California

  • “We have friends, but do we really know them? And do they really know us? And, I think, that's maybe a bigger question. How can we address that in our lives?”

    - Annie, Colorado

  • "“I feel like a new community is rising where we're finding the courage to be honest about what we're wrestling with, we’re feeling the uplift of a variety of voices - not losing heart - and we're leaning into the wild beauty of the natural world, and drawing strength from it.”

    - Diane, Colorado

  • “It’s not this selfish ‘We got to have this amazing sisterhood!’, but ‘Oh my gosh, imagine if this is a broader thing!’ More and more women can be rising up and having this new community and being honest and authentic. This takes it beyond what we shared in this experience, to really imagine that light going outwards.”

    - Janessa, California

  • I just want to keep taking it forward for myself, too. To go deeper and to figure it out and to go beyond - the honest part of it. That journey. We're all on that journey still, and we're all there together! If I need something, I know I can reach out to any of them. That's an amazing thing to feel. Like I just finished summer camp! I didn't want to go home!”

    - Mary, Indianapolis

  • "It was like the perfect coming together of time and space and women."

    - Jan, Missouri

  • "To me, the heart of the experience was that I could authentically be myself while opening up with other women. HHJ takees a trip to the next level wiith the invitation to become more self-aware. I cherished the time to reflect through evening guided introspection and journaling, which immediately opened up natural, deep, often healing discussions with others throughout the trip."

    - Jennifer, California

  • “Travel with purpose. Find on your own terms that the community and sisterhood you may be seeking reaches all corners of the globe. See how restorative travel through Honest Heart Journeys can support you in growth and grace for the year ahead.”

    - Grace Foster
