Bright Hikes
Connect with the power of nature - develop a warrior mindset -
get the life you want.
In just one weekend, I will guide you on a hike and through a step-by-step process to create a warrior mindset that will help you to overcome any limitation and achieve any goal.
(And there will be an added sprinkle of magick to go with it).
Pinnacles Hike (Kauaeranga Kauri Trail)
21st - 23rd November 2025
When you connect to the warrior mindset, you’re able to access the strength, power, courage, and determination necessary to connect to your real desires, stand up and say no to the things that you don’t want, remove all that stands in your way, so you can say YES and create everything that you DO want.
The wealth you want.
The romantic partner you want.
The job you want.
The fulfilment you want.
The freedom and time you want.
Does this mean fighting? No.
Away from the distractions of the modern world, Bright Hikes connects you to the power of nature and its spirits so you can connect to your spirituality, power and strength to help you increase your boundaries so you can create everything you want.
(Footage of a previous Bright Hike across the Tongariro Crossing)
Tell me if this is you…
You know what you want for your life, you know you can create it, but there’s something that keeps you from nailing it. What the hell is it?
You journal, do the vision boards, follow the meditations, you know what you want but you also have a sneaky feeling that there’s more to your life.
You’re meditating daily but the thoughts often get the better of you, and that mental peace seems distant.
You’re doing the gratitudes and the affirmations but the doubt and the low mood can still creep in.
You have a huge craving for more autonomy, freedom and joy, but what can you do to get it?
You’re so ready to live an aligned life to your purpose, yeah, bring it on! Oh wait, what is your purpose??
You want to create a life more on your terms, what you want. But there are certain people or situations that you need to say no to first. If only you had the voice…
- You’re ready to step up, give life your best shot, and start loving life with zero guilt.
- You already have great friends but you want more intimate human connection and expansive conversation. You want to find your new tribe.
- You’re popular and busy, you’re ready for some zero-distraction time to get perspective on all the stuff that’s happening in your life.
- You love a good challenge that puts you out of your comfort zone so you can see what you’re capable of and what you let stand in your way of manifesting what you want.
You know what you want but there’s still something blocking it.
You’ve been doing all the things: journaling, gratitude lists, affirmations, sound baths, yoga, women’s circles, gym 3 times per week, to name a few.
These ain’t gonna cut it, I’m afraid. This is what’s really going on….
You might have an idea of what you want your life to look like, but you’re not courageous enough to allow yourself to connect to your true desires and dream even bigger.
There are still elements of your power that you need to take back so that you can dream bigger and succeed in everything you wish to create.
You’re holding on to emotions that are unconsciously re-creating all the crap that you don’t want rather than consciously creating what you do want.
Without a clear vision of your future life, you will inevitably go back to the path of least resistance when the going gets tough, because you won’t know what you’re fighting for.
And what you do today is because of what you want for your future. Not because of what happened in the past.
The amount of abundance of anything (time, laughs, money, friends, love) you are willing to receive will depend on your self-value and worth, which is related to how much shame you are holding
So, if you want to become the creator of a life that you love, more free time, more wealth, a romantic partner of your dreams, a life of purpose and fulfilment, waking up filled with joy and excitement every single day then you need to create the space to connect the REAL you, create a vision for what you want, find the courage to take action, see what lurks and unconsciously stands in your way and bust it out the way for good.
THEN you can become the CONSCIOUS creator of a life you love, on your terms.
What’s Inside Your
Bright Hike Weekend
This is a fully organised and guided hike retreat with a magical twist with me, Carrie Brightwell, Spirituality & Mindset Coach, Shamanic Healer, and Professional Muay Thai Fighter (so I know a thing or two about being a warrior).
Book your place and simply turn up. Everything else is looked after for you.
Pinnacles - Bright Hike
Bright Hikes helps you to reconnect with yourself and pay attention to your deeper (often hidden) thoughts, feelings and desires. You will gain a greater sense of self, clarity, direction and purpose. As you hike, I will guide you through activities, meditations and life coaching conversations to help you explore the inner workings of your mind and soul to a much deeper level.
The Big Goal Superseder Format
Everything you do is driven by the future you want to experience. But you’re also capable of more than you can imagine for yourself right now. I will guide through a format that will help you create your vision and raise the bar on your dreams and goals in such a way that nothing will be able to stop you from getting them. You will have unwavering conviction and heightened determination to smash your goals.
‘Life by Your Design’ Formula
Let’s look at how you get to live the future you want, over and over again. There is a lot of talk about what manifestation is and how to create what you want, but a lot of what is shared is incomplete, meaning you’re left believing you’re no good at it or you just don’t get what you want. Knowing the complete formula and what blocks it means you have all the tools you need to become the creator of your reality.
Signature Power Reclamation Process
Power loss is one of the major blocks to success. I will guide you through a quick, simple and easy meditation to help you see where you have given your power away and who has taken it so that you can reclaim it all. Once you have it back, you have the power to create and achieve your goals. You can literally feel the power returning to you! You’ll walk away feeling deserving, decisive, assertive, confident, motivated and determined.
‘Unapologetically Yours’ Method
When people can’t deal with their own pain and shame, they dump it onto others. When you carry someone else's shame, you believe that you are the problem. This can cause medical conditions and show up as low feelings of deservability, self-value and worth. You don’t dream big, you never try and you give up easily. Learning how to return shame frees you of the burden, resulting in you being able to raise your expectations, push the boundaries of your goals, and believe you're worthy of all your desires. You’ll attract more possibilities because you know you deserve everything you want. I will guide you through a meditation to help you release all shame so that you are energetically able and willing to receive all that you want.
Block Breaker Blueprint
There’s that one thing that keeps holding you back, that you can’t seem to overcome. There’s no need to stay here for another year wondering what you can do. In 20 minutes, I am going to show you how to identify what your personal emotional blocks are that are sabotaging you from creating everything that you want in life. I’m also going to teach you how to remove them, permanently, so that they never get in the way of you progressing forward and winning at anything in life again.
Feel Your Way To Purpose
You will learn the true meaning of purpose and its building blocks, so you can identify and connect to your soul’s reason for being here. This then provides relief, clarity and fun and helps you to make the right choices to take you along your deep path to fulfilment.
Maximising Impact
We wil be working with the power of plants to help us guide our energiies in the right way and to ensure maximum impact from the weekend. We will set heart felt intentions and work with Peruvian cocoa to help us bring those intentions to life.
Energy Attunements
You will receive attunements to the local energy and power of the land - you will come away holding the power of the Coromandel within your energy field. I will also be attuning you to a multitude of other energies for you to call upon whenever you need them to help you create what you want.
Yoga & Energy Healing
Shamanic healings from me will help you to clear out the shit, raise your vibration and start to attract more of what you want. The yoga classes are there to feel great in your body.
Peruvian Cocoa Ceremony
I always bring back cocoa from my visits to the Sacred Valley Mountains of Peru, to share with you all. It connects you to your heart, helps you to open up and lovingly set your energetic intentions for the weekend. Oh, and it tastes great!
This weekend retreat is a safe space for you to really push yourself in a compassionate and loving way and explore your fears and dreams without judgment. A space where you will be guided, supported, encouraged, accepted and heard.
Blending the workshops and nature will help you to see yourself from a different perspective, gain new clarity, see where you fit in the grand scheme and help you to connect deeper to your spirituality and your divinity.
Energetic Attunements
During the weekend, you will receive activations and attunements to a number of energies that will help you to become the master of your reality. This means that I activate the energy within you so that you have that power to use.
You will get:
Dai Hana - The Great Teacher - This is a Yamabushi Shinto Reiki (energy) that creates a stronger connection between you and your intuition, your inner teacher. It helps you connect to your Higher-Self more easily so that you can see, feel and know yourself and the way that is right for you.
Quantum Entanglement Releasing Orb - Call upon this energy and ask it to release you from the entanglement of any negative situation, thought, or belief so that you can dream and create from a higher vibration.
Mahini Astra - Clears all mind control so that you know you are thinking and operating from a place of sovereignty.
Metatron's Cube - The resonance from this sacred geometric symbol takes you beyond the matrix and physical illusion so that you expand and can change the illusion.
5. Wish-fulfilling Gem - This is a crystal that wants to manifest your wishes and helps you get whatever you want.
6. Tenaga Inti Getaran - An Indonesian empowerment that brings balance and stability to your life. It absorbs chaotic thoughts, brings harmony, clears up stress and depression, and brings a positive mental state. It also stimulates your body to heal itself and accelerates the healing process.
7. Chaya Agung Chakra Dewa - This energy stabilises your astral body and cleanses your energy. It opens and activates your inner eye, strengthens intuition, accelerates psychic development, and creates a strong connection with your Higher-Self. It will help and guide you intuitively, deepen your spiritual knowledge, accelerate your spiritual awareness, and bring you to higher spiritual wisdom.
8. Segara Rahayu Pamungkas - This is a spiritual and magickal empowerment that has a powerful force to cleanse any negativities and negative karma from your past and present time so that blessings and positive things can come to into your life. It helps to attract good luck, abundance and prosperity from all directions.
Let me share with you what the weekend will entail and how you will get all of this.

Testimonials
How Hiking Works For Me!
I’ve hiked in multiple countries all over the world. I’ve been at the top of some of the highest mountains, deep into jungles and far out into remote access places. I have been using hiking and nature as a way to peel back my layers, observe the truth, ask for and gain guidance and inspiration to build plans for years.
It’s my go-to when I want to recharge, invigorate my soul, overcome a block or limitation, find a solution, create a plan, or process a really shitty day.
It’s also the place where I feel most connected to my divinity. It fills me up with that tingly knowing like nothing else can. It helps me gain perspective as well as strength and confidence.
I also use it as a way to challenge myself, to conquer and to expand my capabilities.
There is absolutely no reason why this can't be you.

Frequently Asked Questions:
Q: How challenging/hard is it?
A: The DOC rates it as an intermediate walk. You can check out their page here. In short, it means: Duration: 6–8 hour hike. Suitable for people with moderate fitness and basic backcountry skills. Track is generally well-formed but may be rough, muddy, or steep. Major crossings are bridged, but smaller ones are not. Watch this helpful video from the DOC to get a good idea of the terrain.
If you're unsure or don’t want to miss out, join the Preparation Package to make sure you're good to go. The main challenge is the length — 15km. If you can walk for 7 hours, you can do this. It’s your responsibility to decide if your body is fit enough. I’ll be there to guide and motivate you, but I can’t carry you. There is one steep section, but you can take it at your own pace or opt out. I’ve seen people of all ages and fitness levels complete it. The fun is in the beauty and the challenge.
Q: What if I’ve never walked that far before?
A: Many haven’t, but many still finish. This is a challenge for many in different ways — and that’s the point. We’re here to challenge our status quo and push boundaries. You in?

Q: I have an injury, can I still do it?
A: If your injury prevents you from walking 15km (6–8 hours), uphill or downhill, then it may be best not to attempt it. While mindset is powerful, physical limitations can create risk or disruption for the group. Let’s be sensible — if you're concerned, it may be wise to sit this one out.
Q: What happens if I get injured or can’t complete the hike?
A: We’ll contact the authorities to help get you out.
