Woniya Thibeault is a naturalist, craftsperson, and ancestral skills instructor, whose passion is inspiring and empowering people to live their wildest, freest, most abundant lives. Through her writing, teaching, speaking, and videos, she offers skills and practices to help people feel connected to and part of the natural world. While never describing herself as a survivalist, she has appeared on the solo survival wilderness challenge on the History Channel’s Alone. She attributes this victory not to her brute strength or force of will, but to her commitment to living in the wild in a humble, respectful, and reciprocal way—with, rather than against the land and its element. Her debut memoir, released June 13, 2023, shares this philosophy and the story of her deep wilderness immersion in the arctic wilderness during the 73 days she lived there on her own during Alone Season 6.
