KARLI SARVER (she/her), returning retreat guide leader
Karli attended the We Are HER retreat in 2021 and has been a dedicated volunteer since 2023. As the retreat photographer, she thoughtfully captures moments of connection, healing, and joy with both care and creativity. In addition to her photography role, Karli helps manage our returning retreat guide program, supporting volunteers who are walking alongside new participants. An artist, small business owner, and proud mom, Karli brings warmth, humor, and heart to every part of her work. She also created the “wolf pack” tradition we now include in every final night closing ceremony — a lasting symbol of strength, belonging, and community.
