Gretchen "Grae" (she/they) declared her life purpose early on in life (6 years old); “I will work with the nature in people!” She does just that as a guide in Rites of Passage, wilderness therapy, and as an expression of self.

Grae runs her own business, Naetura Cara (@Naeturacara) offering 1-1 sessions, group facilitation, and trainings in Rites of Passage and Ceremony "but the true essence of my work happens in person, immersed in nature." She frequently travels between Utah, Montana, Idaho, California, Alaska, and the PNW for work and is a guide for The School of Lost Borders and Rite of Passage Journeys.

We interviewed Grae in early February 2023 about her experience in her work with the nature in people.
