Welcome to The Rewilded Life.

I’m Shannon Evans.

I muse. I sass. I pray in the woods.

My writing tends to situate itself at the intersection of spirituality and social change, with an emphasis on the feminine experience.

The Mystics Would Like a Word is my newest book release, which examines six historical female mystics and holds their own words up to issues modern women are grappling with today. I also authored Feminist Prayers for My Daughter and Rewilding Motherhood, and if you can appreciate how long it took to overcome my internalized misogyny to proudly write three books for women, then we’re sure to get along.

My family and I make our home on the prairies of central Iowa, where I moonlight as a free range parent and weird chicken lady.
