Woniya Thibeault, the runner up on Netflix's Alone, is offering an eight-week survival course, teaching more than how to skin a deer and tie a knot

Left to fend for herself on Arctic land, with only 10 pieces of gear - among them a sleeping bag, a pot, and a bow and arrows - Woniya Thibeault didn't just want to survive. She wanted to find joy in the process of surviving.

Scattered miles apart in the same rugged wilderness were nine other contestants looking to outlast one another and win big on the History Channel's popular survival reality series Alone. In it, contestants compete to stick it out in the wilderness for the longest time with limited resources - all have the option to tap out if it gets too much. The prize money - $500,000 - would have changed Thibeault's life, but winning wasn't her top priority. She was there for the experience.
