In this special episode of Unapologetically Wild, I share the profound lessons and heart-opening moments that came from hosting my very first retreat. What started as a dream became a soul-nourishing experience that reminded me just how much the universe rises to meet us when we step fully into our purpose.

From guided meditations to moments of stillness in nature, this retreat was a celebration of growth, sisterhood, and divine alignment. I open up about the magic that unfolded—how every detail seemed orchestrated perfectly—and how powerful it can be when women come together to support one another.

This conversation is about more than just one event. It’s about trusting the timing of your life, leaning into community, and allowing divine guidance to shape the path ahead. If you’ve ever questioned whether you’re on the right track, this episode will remind you that every step, even the smallest ones, are building you into who you’re meant to be.

Inside this episode, I share:

• Why stepping into purpose creates ripple effects beyond your imagination
• How retreats can be catalysts for deep healing and transformation
• The role of community and sisterhood in personal growth
• What it means to align with divine guidance and trust the process
• Why self-care—body, mind, and spirit—is essential in living in alignment

About Kadi

Meet Kadi Sonntag, the unapologetically wild woman leading the charge on living life boldly and breaking free from the limits society tries to set. Born in Maitland in 1992 and raised in Newcastle, Kadi’s love for sports (anything but school!) started early.

From swimming at a national level to competing in high jump at nationals and playing representative basketball, Kadi was always moving, growing, and pushing herself. In high school, she was the sports and school captain, proving leadership comes naturally.

At 19, Kadi took a leap and joined the army, starting as an admin clerk and eventually becoming an army physical training instructor in 2019. She’s served on peacekeeping missions in the Middle East, taken part in exercises in Asia, and now holds the rank of sergeant. Talk about resilience!

When she’s not leading in the military, Kadi’s got her sidekick—her dog Piper—and she’s all about empowering women to tap into their inner strength, unleash their wildest selves, and live unapologetically. Whether she’s playing for the Defence National Basketball Team or sharing her journey on Unapologetically Wild, Kadi is here to help women break free, find their power, and live on their own terms.
