Courage Creativity Creation
Once upon a time, I had the honor to spend a morning with the Tsalala Lioness.
Currently a solo pride of one, the story of her Tsalala pride lineage goes back 30 years and now rests upon her tenacious shoulders.
Despite the unique challenges of being on her own, and through the magic of technology, she inspires human creatures across the world with her resilience and devotion to living her life.
And though she may not speak the words of humans, she embodies courage, creativity and creation with every step across the wild landscape she inhabits.
What might you create if you trusted your own wild resilience?
Welcome – to the Untamed Immersion,
