ABOUT US

We Hike to Heal, Inc is a 501(c)3 nonprofit that was established by the founders of the Outdoor Journal Tour in July of 2022.

Our mission is to build an inclusive community that normalizes self care, creates a sacred space for healing and adventure, and prioritizes the mental and emotional wellbeing of all women.

Because we believe that when women thrive, the world thrives.

OUR WHY

Women are socialized to prioritize others over themselves. Taking time to care for oneself tends to be seen as selfish and frivolous. However, you cannot “pour from an empty cup” and self care is a necessity in our overall health and wellbeing!

Outdoor Journal Tour and We Hike to Heal, Inc creates space for women to prioritize themselves. Over the years, we have proven that outdoor adventures create physical challenges that have the ability to breakdown mental and emotional barriers; which creates connection and opportunities for deep healing.

We believe that equal access to outdoor spaces is important to the health of women, and more specifically BIPOC women. In our experience some of the greatest barriers BIPOC women face in accessing outdoor spaces are trust, safety and lack of diversity.

Our goal is to continue to create safe and equitable spaces outdoors for all women to enjoy.
