Hi, I’m Heather Muhlhauser—aka “Heather Feather.”

“Heather Feather” was my nickname growing up, and it still fits. Light, uplifting, and a little magical—just like a feather, I aim to inspire and help others rise.

I’m the founder of Elevate Excursions, a yoga, hiking, and foodie adventure company offering transformational trips in the Smoky Mountains, the Grand Canyon, Sedona, Croatia, and Costa Rica. I specialize in helping active people overcome pain and return to the activities they love—stronger, more aligned, and pain-free.

This event was born from a solo retreat I took to Red River Gorge, where I led myself through the same transformational process I guide others through on my retreats—with a few new twists. The impact was so profound, I knew I had to share it.

In addition to being a certified personal trainer and a 200- and 500-hour yoga teacher, I’m also an Ironman finisher, have completed dozens of marathons and ultramarathons, and currently love participating in SwimRun events. When I’m not training or guiding others, you’ll find me running trails or hiking with my husband, Ted, our kids—Wiley, Sedona, and Kenzie—and our beloved dog, Omena.

This retreat is your invitation to reset, rise, and realize what’s truly possible. I’ll be sharing the exact tools I use to transform my own life in big, beautiful ways—and I can’t wait to support you in doing the same.

Are you in?
