Natalie Wild

Founder of Jade Journeys

Over six years ago, I connected deeply with the practice of yoga at a retreat in Bali. What I discovered on the mat changed not just my sense of self but shaped the entire direction of my life.

Since then, my curiosity has taken me through finance, startups, studies, travel and different cultures and ways of living. Along the way, 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.

These places, and the experiences, philosophies and people I have encountered, continue to weave into the fabric of my life and work.

Jade Journeys was born from this tapestry - a salon for conversations, retreats and practices that invite people to live more creative, fun and meaningful lives.

My background

My roots span both business and the creative world. I studied at Stockholm School of Economics and interned at Morgan Stanley in London and BCG in Stockholm before joining a Swedish beauty startup as its second employee. Later, I worked at a boutique investment bank, advising entrepreneurs and founders.

Along the way, yoga became an increasingly important part of my life. A period of study in India deepened my interest in philosophy and immersing in other cultures, eventually leading me back to Costa Rica, where I spent several periods living and teaching.

The raw, wild beauty of nature and a slower rhythm of life continue to inspire me and influence how I see the world.

Over time, my professional and personal worlds began to converge. What started as a personal exploration, evolved into boutique retreats in Stockholm and London, a podcast featuring long-form conversations with women from more than fifteen countries, online practices, and private sessions.


My hope is that Jade Journeys continues to bring together interesting people, meaningful conversations and experiences that inspire a richer way of living.
