about us
TRUE NORTH
journeys
Through our LOVE for travel adventures and the life-changing practices of yoga, we have birthed our creative love-child, True North Journeys… an on-going series of transformational travel+yoga retreats for ladies such as yourself!
...besties + spiritual running buddies who believe that life is meant to be an amazing transformational journey of self-discovery… an ever unfolding adventure that leads you home to your true, authentic self… that place of endless resource, strength, peace and JOY!
hey, we're Aurea+Amy
01
our story
Several years ago, we both decided to bravely take the path less travelled when we walked away from our respective upwardly mobile corporate jobs to pursue lives outside the confines of the corporate 9-5.
...
Amy took off on a solo mission to explore the world while teaching herself the art of photography and learning to blog and web design on the road, while Aurea (did what all women in corporate dream of doing) turned in her corporate pantsuits for yoga pants… and went back to school to become a yoga instructor, spin instructor and most recently a Yoga Therapist!
02
our story
Taking the path less traveled can be extremely lonely at times, but thankfully we had EACH OTHER + a strong internet connection!
...
Despite our physical distance, we could always count on one another for support and for the occasional “I need you to talk me off the ledge” talk.
It’s been several years since we embarked our own individual journeys complete with our own set of setbacks, challenges, u-turns, moments of surrender AND abundant moments of inspiration, creativity and clarity. And FINALLY our paths forward have come to converge together to blend our unique talents and strengths.
03
our story
TOGETHER, we have banded together to create businesses and lives that are aligned with the truth in our hearts and the playfulness of our souls.
...
We aspire to create lives where we get to be human BEINGS… rather than human DOINGS. We’ve chased the proverbial carrots of money, career and material possessions and still came up missing something.
04
our story
We seek to live in pursuit of living lives that are rich in experience… more FEELING… less DOING… more ALLOWING… less FORCING… and that requires some serious humility and faith.
...
You gotta pull down the mask of “I’ve got it all figured out” and “I’m totally Adulting so hard” and just get really simple… what lights you up? what brings you joy? what makes you excited?? And like a little kid, just go do that. And so we are… day by day… inviting in more PLAY… as we courageously dare to create a life that brings us to life… not just one that we’re waiting to get over with.

I love all animals… especially dogs (I have three!!!) Crisp, fresh air and time in nature soothes my soul. Music moves me and singing and dancing sets me free.
...
I crave down-to-earth connections, people that just want to keep it real. I love hard when it comes to those near and dear to me, and especially when it comes to myself. I pride myself in loving others from a full cup. I approach life with courage and fearlessness in my heart because I know in my bones that the Universe is always on my side.

I want to explore this big, beautiful world of ours and never stop. I crave learning about everything, including myself. I truly believe that we each have a unique light, and by sharing them with each other, love + positivity spread. Look at you glow, m'dear!
I love new adventures, fresh air + nachos. I heart all furry friends + think their rumps are the cutest things ever [how do you look at a corgi's butt or pig's curly tail and not just giggle?]. And music energizes my soul [I take a lot of dance + twirl breaks throughout the day].
