YOUR HOST & GUIDE
JOREN DE BRUIN
Joren is a personal freedom coach, co-founder of Into the Wild Within, and someone who helps people reconnect with what’s real. His work blends cold exposure, breath, movement, and mindset—not to push limits for the sake of it, but to help you slow down, listen to your body, and make decisions that actually feel alive.
He started as a pro soccer player in the Netherlands. But after a serious back injury and no answers from traditional medicine, he dove into the world of breathwork and cold training. After learning directly from Wim Hof—before the global spotlight—he healed himself in two weeks after 1.5 years of pain. He supported Wim’s early work for four years before taking a different path—one that focuses less on extremes and more on awareness, healing, and self-leadership.
Joren’s work is about creating space—internally and in community—to face what’s holding you back and move toward real freedom. Through retreats, coaching, and group work, he’s helped thousands reconnect to their bodies, break old patterns, and feel more present, clear, and empowered.

“Transformational. I will live the rest of my life with a cornerstone memory of this journey that changed my life forever... Honestly it’s too much and I’m too nostalgic to recite everything. But Joren and Elena have provided me with undeniable proof of my strength within, and with the tools to remain calm, composed and self-compassionate through times of stress which I have mindlessly suffered from for years to come!”
