WISE | Women's Inspirational Storytelling Experience

Apr 18

we are a parent focused community

Modern parents are working hard to hold all the pieces together while raising the next generation of kind humans. We believe better experiences should be built for these parents - where they can rest, play and enjoy their family in an elevated way.
**Now let’s (all) have some fun.**

We were proud to be featured on this inspirational morning talk show. Founder Karen Cook spoke about our family retreats and why it is so important for families to pause and reconnect during our busy, modern lives.

“Our goal is to support hardworking parents by providing elevated parent and family experiences through local events and our signature family weekends - Camp Wyld™”

— Karen, Founder & Mom of 3

CHOOSE YOUR OWN ADVENTURE

“We create a dream weekends for parents and their families because parents deserve a little TLC. Family meals, a Kids Club, live music, family, child and parent programming. Ease, joy & space to connect with those that matter most - in nature.”

why wyldflower

As humans, our truest
nature is to be independent, unconventional, joyful
and full of life.
**A free spirit. A wildflower.**

As parents, we often feel overwhelmed by the ‘juggle’ of daily life, and somewhere in the middle of all that we can easily lose our true identities. We forget to do those simple things that make us happiest. We don’t prioritize the things we’ve always loved to do. The Wyldﬂower Collective is on a mission to help you change that.

Wildflowers grow in community with other wildﬂowers, with the common goal of not only surviving, but thriving. It’s why we chose wildﬂowers to help brand our community.

We changed the “I” in Wildﬂower to “Y” to remind you that YOU matter.

Your needs, those things that bring YOU joy, matter. You don’t have to be a solitary “I” feeling like you’re alone on your parenthood journey. The “Y” represents our collective You - our community of like-minded parents. And, it’s an invitation to integrate the “old You” and the “new You,” and to feel welcome just being yourself.

We hope you’ll join our community at The Wyldﬂower Collective to experience our intentional and creative experiences designed with you in mind…to help you reconnect to You and enjoy your life and family even more.

“You belong among the wildflowers.
You belong somewhere close
to me. Far away from your trouble and worries. You belong somewhere you feel free.” - Tom Petty

“I’m on a happy parent crusade”

— Karen cook, founder of the Wyldflower collective

meet founder,
KAREN cook

Founder and
Chief Experience Officer of
The Wyldflower Collective.
Karen comes from a long line of party planners, so it's in her DNA to gather great people together. After having children, Karen was disappointed that everything they could do as a family was catered to kids, not considering the parents who are working so hard to raise them.
Karen believes parents have the most important job in the world - literally raising the future - but in today’s modern world of options and distractions, this comes at a cost.

Karen believes if parents find time to reconnect with themselves, their partners and their friends, they'll be happier in all aspects of their lives and will be better parents, spouses, and people in general. When our children see us take care of ourselves, it sends the message that the world is bigger than just them and that we all matter. Parents matter.

Karen’s background in design, art direction and photography brings these events together in a way that's professional, fun and creative.

E M A I L M E !
I truly love hearing from you. If what I’m doing touches you, tell me. I’m just Mom behind this computer who loves real engagement.

Also, I’m always seeking collaboration
opportunities with other women entrepreneurs.
Let’s go for a beach walk and discuss.

Stay Wyld.

Love,
Karen
