You camp alone not to get away from others, but to get closer to yourself.
Maybe it started as a reset — a weekend unplugged. But over time, it’s become something more: a ritual, a rebalancing, a remembering.
You notice details others miss. The hush after twilight. The warmth of a solo campfire. The rhythm of your own pace.
I was talking to a friend recently — another woman who camps solo — and she admitted she never sleeps well the first night.
I totally get it. I’ve been there too. The first few trips were tough. Putting yourself in a position where you have to slow down, hear your own voice, and fully accept that you’re alone? That takes guts. And it takes getting used to. But oh my gosh — it’s where the deep work happens.
That’s why solo camping is still my fastest reset button. When work and family life start to pile up, I don’t crave a break… I crave this. The silence. The space.
SageWild was born from that need — to build tools that support those of us who carry it all, and still choose to walk into the wild on our own terms.
Usually with Email opt ins I’m supposed to offer you something in order to get you to connect. This isn’t that.
I NEED the type of camper you are to help make SageWild useful. If you’re open to it, I’d love to share what I’m working on and hear what you’ve figured out too.
Let’s trade notes?
No spam, ever. Just the good stuff — from one camper to another.
I share solo stories, gear wins, quiet trail moments, and lessons from the wild over on Instagram — and there’s a bit of a community forming there.
You’d fit in so well.
I didn’t expect to feel powerful alone in the bush.
But there I was — no signal, no backup, just my gear and my gut. And it wasn’t reckless. It was freeing.
That trip gave me confidence in a way nothing else had. Not just confidence to camp — confidence to be alone, to trust myself, to be fully present. To know I’ve got me.
Not just confidence to camp — confidence to be alone, to trust myself, to be fully present.
That’s why I started SageWild.
Not to sell gear — but to build it for us. The ones who carry our own packs, pitch our own tents, and still want something that works beautifully, not just “well enough.”
If you’ve been out there too — alone, aware, clear-headed — then you already get it. And honestly, I’d love your input. What’s worked for you? What’s missing? What would make your next solo setup feel like it’s actually been built with you in mind?
Let’s build that together.
"Carry less. Feel more. Go further."
