Natalie Wild

Founder of Jade Journeys

Over six years ago, I connected deeply with the practice of yoga at a retreat in Bali, and it quietly rearranged the direction of my life.

What followed was a journey between many worlds - finance, entrepreneurship, philosophy, different cultures and ways of living. I spent years deepening my yoga practice, teaching others, and living across four continents, often in places where life moves a little closer to its own nature.

Jade Journeys was born from this tapestry - a salon for retreats, conversations, and practices that invite a more creative, meaningful way of living.

Background

My roots span both business and the creative world. I studied at Stockholm School of Economics, and worked across finance, consulting and startups, including Morgan Stanley, BCG, Mantle Skin and a boutique investment bank, before yoga and a period of study in India pulled me toward philosophy and a different way of living.

Costa Rica became a place I returned to again and again, teaching and living close to nature's own rhythm. The raw, wild beauty of nature and a slower life continue to inspire me and influence how I see the world.

What began as personal exploration became Jade Journeys — boutique retreats in Stockholm and London, a podcast of long-form conversations with women from more than fifteen countries, online practices, and private sessions.
