Did you know that hearing personal stories from leaders with real-world experience enhances focus?
Jacks Genega, Founder and Lead Instructor, of Wildcard Wilderness has a vast experience in adventure and survival training having solo trekked part of the world’s most remote and rugged terrains.
“Sometimes in nature, like in life, you get dealt a bad hand. But by learning critical survival skills and leaning into curiosities, one can become a wildcard and discover the unexpected within. The wilderness provides a sense of belonging and place unlike our constant struggle to conform to societal norms. By learning how to not just protect yourself from Mother Nature, but to work with Mother Nature, one builds confidence that affects your life whether in nature or not. My goal is to create a sense of resilience through self-reliance. Skills in fire, navigation, bushcraft, and plant medicine all have the power to change people's perceptions of what they are truly capable of and become the hero of their own journey.
