OUR STORY

We're Jim and Dan – your Guides and Founders of Through Wild.

We aim to help individuals rediscover their primal instincts, enabling them to test their limits, embrace discomfort, and enjoy the mental and physical health benefits of spending time outside.

Through Wild connects people who crave outdoor experiences and want to ignite that primal connection to land and nature. We create the space to unplug, step outside, and reconnect with what matters.

GET IN TOUCH

We established Through Wild with the mission to enhance people’s mental health and wellbeing by helping connect them to nature, adventure, and primal activities.

Jim has lived and breathed the outdoors for as long as he can remember. Growing up on a rural property, his dad would carry him in a backpack as a baby hiking the property and searching for adventure. Jim is an avid hunter and fly fisherman and believes promoting a sustainable lifestyle through wild activities is the key to improving mental health and wellbeing.

"My favourite and most vulnerable place to be is by a campfire on a chilly winters night." - Jim

Dan’s love for the outdoors started at 10, joining his dad and brothers on their annual fishing trip. Days spent chasing trout and sharing stories created lasting memories and sparked a lifelong passion for fishing and the outdoors. Those early adventures inspired his drive to help people build meaningful connections beyond what a classroom or screen could offer.

"Through Wild was born from a simple belief—that being outdoors can transform mental health and wellbeing." - Dan

THROUGH WILD…VENTURE BEYOND BOUNDARIES.
