What If I told you - You Can Have Your Fruit & Eat It Too?

What else is it for, if not for eating —ripe, messy, dripping with sweetness—and to enjoy it with your whole spirit, your whole wilde heart?

What if that sweetness, like joy wasn't a reward for good behavior, but your birthright?

This is your invitation to take the first bite.

What She’s Saying

★★★★★

“Vanessa Wilde is gifted in her ability to intuitively sense what the room needs for confidence and safety to express themselves and have fun. In our recent work together, I saw first hand excellent results from an annual planning retreat for our organization.”
- Danny Fitzgerald, Regional Director SBDC
★★★★★

“She has lent her brilliance to the development of several improv-based workshops, empowering our staff and families to be fully present with their loved ones and finding creative ways to connect and harness the power of story in people who are dealing with memory loss.”
- Amy Abrams, Director of Education Alzheimer's San Diego
★★★★★

“Vanesaa is a great speaker.There's something magical about the way she teaches. She gently brings you out of your shell, out of your head, and eliminates the intimidation factor that you might otherwise expect when being vulnerable in front of other people.”
- Nichole MacDonald, CEO The Sash Bag
★★★★★

“Taking creative playshops with Vanessa is one of the best investments I’ve made in my personal and professional life. It’s playtime, laughter, connection, community, collaboration, vulnerability, therapy, expansion, and in the beginning, waaaay out of my comfort zone.”
- Virginia Rodriguez, Writer
★★★★★

“Vanessa’s class was a smorgasbord of improv “exercises,” playfulness, lots of laughter goofiness, and mindfulness— reminding us to let go of our inhibitions, our inner critics, and those “you shouldn’t” and “you can’t” voices in our heads. Valuable lessons.”
- Valerie Sussman, M.D.

What's Your Spirit Fruit ? →

Author and cheerfully disobedient playologist reclaiming joy and pleasure — part medicine, part rebellion.

So you just met your Spirit Fruit. She's something, isn't she?

Your fruit is your joy, your time, your pleasure, your peace, your safety, your choices. You don't have to choose between having these things and actually enjoying them. You're the sovereign. You get to savor them, spend them on what lights you up.

I spent years being the good girl — responsible, people-pleasing, and totally exhausted. Then Lyme disease forced me to stop and pay attention to myself. That's when I discovered a medicine no doctor ever prescribed: play, pleasure, and the joy of full presence.

Now I guide women back to what makes them fully alive. Because you're not a machine to be optimized. You're slightly wilde, a little feral, and meant to thrive — not just slog along hoping one you’re less tired, have more money, or have lost that 20 extra pounds.

Play is the way. This is for the ones trading orgasms for to-do lists. The ones who forgot they have a right to their own joy.

You've spent your whole life tending to other people's gardens. I'm here to show you how to tend to yours, and finally taste the fruit.

Want to know how? Let me show you — I promise it'll be more fun than your last self-help binge. ⤵
