Heather Wagner
Heather Wagner is the visionary founder of Into the Wild, a transformative space for mothers navigating life’s transitions. With a deep understanding of matrescence—the profound identity shift that comes with motherhood—Heather empowers women to embrace change with confidence, self-awareness, and community support.
Her own journey—from climbing the corporate ladder and pursuing higher education to stepping into motherhood—revealed the need for a different kind of success: one rooted in self-discovery rather than external achievements. This realization led her to create a powerful framework focusing on Me, Marriage & Motherhood, guiding women to reconnect with themselves, strengthen their relationships, and navigate motherhood with purpose.
Stepping Into the Wild isn’t about becoming someone new—it’s about coming home to yourself. Heather helps women break free from societal expectations and embrace the wisdom, strength, and intuition they’ve always had within. It’s time to come home.

Alex Longaker
Born and raised in Washington state, Alex embarked on her professional journey with a degree in accounting and finance, earning her CPA license and a stint at a Big 4 accounting firm. She quickly discovered that this intensely structured environment wasn't quite her calling and moved on to a role at Amazon as a financial analyst.
She spent six impactful years there, even relocating to the great state of Texas during her tenure. Despite the invaluable insights gained, the relentless pace eventually led to a significant burnout. In July of 2021, she made the bold decision to leave without a clear plan, much to her parents' disapproval, spending a few months in an early retirement phase before clarifying her next steps.
A profound realization soon followed – a clear calling by God to build a bookkeeping business. This vision emerged even before she was considering starting a family, driven by a deep desire to create a life where she could be a present and engaged mother. Taking a complete leap of faith, she officially launched her business in October 2023. Her sweet son arrived in December 2024, and since then, she has been passionately growing and scaling her venture.
Now, her absolute passion is empowering other female founders to genuinely understand their financials. She recognizes how overwhelming numbers can be, often detracting from a founder's core vision. Her approach is rooted in partnership and a judgment-free space, committed to changing the often intimidating narrative of the finance industry. Clients consistently find immediate relief, gaining clarity on their earnings, identifying opportunities for expense refinement, and confidently focusing on their most profitable offerings. Her dedication helps businesses flourish and founders' confidence soar."
