  • "The WanderWomen Circle touched me deeply. I felt empowered. It was a permission slip to take up space, listen inwardly, and trust what was already stirring."

    — Andrea Born-Cristancho, Impact Strategy Consultant

  • "Shivangi’s voice feels like she is sitting across the table from me. The audiobook is so engaging and action-oriented that I need to go back to some chapters.”

    — Raj Bhogal, Senior Director, Jazz Pharmaceuticals

The book inside the retreat

WanderWomen: How High-Skilled Immigrant Women Thrive is the narrative backbone of the weekend. Before you arrive, you’ll receive selected prompts from the book to help you begin reflecting on your own story. During the retreat, we work with the Braving, Building, and Becoming framework through circle, voice, reflection, and integration.

You do not need to have finished the book before you come. It becomes a companion for the questions we explore together.

Why Shivangi

A lived, shared, human experience.

Shivangi Walke is the founder of WanderWomen and Thrive with Mentoring (Switzerland). She has coached and trained leaders across 40+ countries, worked with global organisations, and brings 25 years of leadership work alongside lived experience of reinvention, belonging, and visibility across cultures.

I created WanderWomen because I kept meeting extraordinary women who had done everything right and still felt strangely far from themselves.

— Shivangi Walke, Founder

A sacred pause

You don’t need another room where you have to be impressive.
You don’t need another version of success that costs you your body, joy, or truth.

You may simply need a pause.
A circle. A weekend where you can stop proving and start listening again.
Come as you are. Leave with a clearer voice, a softer body, and a braver relationship to the woman you are becoming.
