Author Lucinda Bakken White began her professional career with an MBA and a coveted position at IBM.

Now, as an Inner Wildness Guide, she is an expert in the process of self-discovery and personal transformation, and is the author of Confessions of a Bone Woman: Realizing Authentic Wildness in a Civilized World. Through private coaching, public speaking, and her writings, she teaches how to be authentically wild in a civilized world. http://authenticwildness.com/
For much of her life, Lucinda Bakken White immersed herself into the modern mainstream culture and achieved a pinnacle of the American Dream. To do so, she became a master at pretending in order to fit in. As a single, affluent, well dressed, attractive woman with advanced degrees, she was able to purchase a home, drive a fancy car and climb her way up through the management ranks of corporate America, by the time she was thirty. Successful by all external measures, her perfect presentation belied how she felt on the inside. Confused and disheartened to realize that these things did not make her happy and joyful (as was promised by the media, culture, her family and friends) she slipped into a debilitating depression that led to thoughts of suicide. Once she was able to move through this difficult period in her life, she was determined to overcome her fear of not belonging and to slay her deep-seated feelings of loneliness. In the process, she was surprised to realize the irony in her quest. The truth is, she was lonely and longing for her inner self. Reconnecting with hidden and lost parts of her essential nature was easier said than done. It took her decades to methodically unearth her original self under the plethora of well-crafted masks she had so successfully created. But, with the help of teachers, mentors, spiritual guides—and most importantly nature—she reclaimed her “authentic wildness” and her full self-expression. Now, as an author, public speaker, and Inner Wildness Guide, she lives a deeply fulfilling life helping other people realize their authentic wildness.

Have you lost touch with your authentic self? Are you to the point where the pain of pleasing other people, fitting in, and containing yourself is greater than the pain of your heart’s longing to express the fullness of who you really are? Confessions of a Bone Woman is one woman’s story of how she recognizes and learns to express her authentically wild nature in order to heal bone by bone and become her full self. Learn how to reclaim authentic wildness in a civilized world through the incredible journey of Lucinda Bakken White: a woman who is more than just a wildlife whisperer. She is wildness herself. As an Inner Wildness Guide, Lucinda is an expert in the process of self-discovery and reclaiming authentic wildness. She will help you answer the call of your wild soul. Raised by a young single mother in the 1960s, Lucinda’s wild nature was broken in a dramatic turn of events. She was shaped into a yuppie and became the wife of a prominent Silicon Valley CEO and a glamorous socialite. Successful by all accounts of external measure, she felt trapped by the shallow values of a dominant culture and ever more alienated from her true nature. Something primal awakens in Lucinda when she unearths and touches an ancient buffalo bone and the experience impels her to secretly collect dead animal parts and learn the art of curing their decomposing flesh. Lucinda tells her story with an impressive candor and exceptional perception. Love the show? Subscribe, rate, review, and share!
