Megan Smith is the founder of Harmony Restored, a company focused on helping individuals heal from the stress that is at the root of their physical and emotional pain. Megan is a certified Emotion Code Practitioner, author of two e-books on healing, a reiki healer, and mom to 6.

Megan is passionate about health, healing, and creating opportunities for community to connect in nature. At Guiding Arrow, you will find Megan with her face in the sun and hands in the dirt.

James (Jayson) Smith is a dad of 6 and the founder of Nextdoor Handyman, a company he built out of his passion for self-sufficiency. Jayson’s grandfather inspired him to learn how to troubleshoot, diagnose, and repair electronics and electrical equipment. His grandfather’s example sparked the love of learning new skills in Jayson. He now spends his days empowering and teaching other homeowners the skills necessary to properly maintain their homes.

When he’s not building or repairing homes, he is studying history, playing guitar, learning new skills, or learning how to fly a plane. At Guiding Arrow you will find him teaching guitar lessons, engaging in a lively discussion about our world, or leading a woodworking class.

Meet Jayson and Megan’s big, happy blended family! Megan’s oldest son and Jayson’s oldest son, who are both on the autism spectrum, are the original inspiration for Guiding Arrow. Just like everyone else, these sweet kids thrive when in nature, connected to their community, and are actively learning.

Jayson and Megan’s kids range from 2 years old to 17 years old. At Guiding Arrow, you will find each of the kids free roaming around the land. They like to spend their days exploring, going on adventures in their kayaks, picking berries, and laughing around the fire.
