a new chapter in the wild
the wild duchess
For women who crave more than another weekend away.
Wild Duchess curates experiential field trips and gatherings in inspiring, natural settings for women who want more than another crowded weekend or surface-level networking event.
field trips
Wild Duchess brings driven, high-achieving women together in extraordinary landscapes - from the wilds of Montana, to California’s coast line, to the English countryside and beyond - to step out of the noise and allow you to slow down, whether on horseback, exploring trails off the beaten path, or over intentional fireside conversations.
Our Field Trips aren’t about escaping life. They are the backdrop for fresh perspective, to reset priorities, and return to your busy world recharged and inspired.

Montana, July 2025
Our first Wild Duchess retreat was more than a getaway; it was a field trip about connection, network expansion, and co-mentorship between executive women, against a backdrop of glorious thunderstorms and stunning landscapes.

Horses and Career Constellations with Catie Macken.
This event has now closed. Read about the day here
Topanga Canyon, Los Angeles. Saturday June 6, 2026. This is a morning event, ending after lunch.
Join us with equine facilitator and guide Catie Macken for a day of Constellation work in the canyon. Constellations are a therapeutic mapping practice that helps you create an external map of your internal world, using the land, horses, and nature as co-creators and guides.
This Field Trip is for the woman navigating a career crossroads or pivot, planning the next chapter, or a challenge in her current work. Catie works with driven, type-A personalities who need to move beyond rational, linear thinking and into something deeper.
We'll start with an intro from Wild Duchess founder and former Chief Creative Officer Storme Whitby-Grubb on career transition, repositioning, and building a portfolio career. Catie will then lead us through a guided Constellations practice with her horses. We'll close the afternoon with a catered lunch in the canyon.
No riding experience needed. No horse experience needed.
