Today we’d like to introduce you to Marci Hedderson-Carroll
Alright, so thank you so much for sharing your story and insight with our readers. To kick things off, can you tell us a bit about how you got started?
Marci Hedderson-Carroll retired after working for the Ohio State Highway Patrol for 30 years. Her career was highlighted by her Administrative years and working in the field of Information Technology.
She has been practicing yoga on and off since the age of 15. She has been deepening her practice for the past 8 years.
Battling some health issues and chronic back pain from traveling for work, Marci made self-care a priority. After working in several downtown studios, she wanted to be more connected to nature and bring her clients into the natural world as well. Her idea to build the Geode Dome came from her inspiration to connect people to yoga through nature.
Can you talk to us a bit about the challenges and lessons you’ve learned along the way. Looking back would you say it’s been easy or smooth in retrospect?
We launched just before covid. The dome was waitlisted every week prior to the shutdown. It has been challenging getting clients to “gather” again. The ups and downs of today’s climate have made it very challenging.
We’ve been impressed with Geode Nature Dome, but for folks who might not be as familiar, what can you share with them about what you do and what sets you apart from others?
Thrill & Chill Escape the daily grind and tap into your divine adventurous spirit. We offer a series of exhilarating outdoor experiences that allow you to connect with the earth. Be inspired by the open fresh air, trees, and mountains, and seek the adventure that awaits you.
However you wish to connect to nature, we provide you with a range of experiences that match your energy
level. Embrace your bold spirit and take on adventures like repelling, mountain biking, hiking, and stand-up paddle boarding. Or take a deep breath and find something a little more tranquil like yoga, massage, meditation, foraging, or
a nature walk.
We want to share the magical space that Geode Nature Dome is while showing gratitude for our natural habitat. It is our mission to leave our space better than we found it. Adventure therapy is calling.
Restoration Through Nature. We nurture our space and show our guests how to do the same. Every activity is powered by our protocol to maintain consistency and keep our space free from being unkempt or in disarray. We embody and practice what we preach.
Adventurous Spirit. Our guests will be immersed in the adventure as soon as they enter our space. Our domes represent the unexpected and wondrous experience they will begin to embark upon.
Concierge Service. We provide our guests with the utmost level of courtesy and respect. Whether they bring a small or large group to our space, we are responsible for providing them with a transformational, epic, and restorative
experience.
What matters most to you? Why?
We want our guests to be transformed. Our guests come here to escape. They don’t have to worry about planning every detail when it comes to the experiences we offer. We lead them to epic adventures of transformation and thrill or help them to soothe and relax their minds as they chill.
