Our Team
harriet moran-smith
Founder
I am a cold blooded person. I feel the cold and I don’t like it, so I was very late to the party when it came to trying ice baths. I had no interest in getting even colder! I ended up in one purely by accident. A friend invited me to a spa one weekend (well, the word ‘spa’ was all I heard anyway!) which turned out to be an ice bath and sauna experience. It was January and the ice on the bath had to be broken with a sledge hammer in order for us to get in. I didn’t even want to take my coat off, let alone get down to my swimmers and jump in the ice! However, peer pressure is a wonderful thing. I was the last in the group to give it a go and everyone before me had managed it - I couldn’t not try. From the second I got out of that 2 degree water after 2 minutes, I was hooked. I felt AMAZING. I had found my ‘thing’. I kept returning to the spa, however it was a long way from home meaning I couldn’t go nearly as regularly as I wanted to. I was desperate to find something similar closer to home, but there wasn’t anything. The more I searched the less I could believe that there was nothing in this beautiful part of the Chiltern Hills to cater for a cold water addiction - so, I decided to create it myself, and opened RESET Wild Spa at Peterley Manor Farm in 2024. Now in our fourth Residency, second location and with a whole second site, I’m loving every second of creating and expanding this little business.

Josephine graham
Spa Host
Living the good life filled with all that I love - my family, nature in all it’s wonder, photography and chasing sunrises and sunsets, yoga, resistance training, long walks and dancing. Fascinated by Ancient history and enchanted with a Greek Island odyssey. I love a Margarita and catching up with friends too!
RESET Wild Spa captured me from the beginning. The instant vibe is undeniably captivating and you sense you’ve arrived somewhere pretty special. I fell in love with the space they’ve created which is totally magical. I’ve always been an advocate of saunas and of late, cold water therapy and it’s boundless health benefits, not to mention how fun it is. I was so inspired by RESET Wild Spa it lead me to join the team with great pride. Working with the best of the best was an effortless decision.

Spa Host
After over a decade in the corporate world, I reached a point where the work no longer reflected my values or the lifestyle I wanted—especially as a mother to two young boys. That realisation sparked a meaningful shift toward what truly lights me up: wellbeing, nature, and holistic healing.
I now specialise in intuitive massage and sound healing, drawing on warm oils, Ayurvedic principles, and somatic techniques to create deeply personalised treatments. My intention is always the same to help people feel more relaxed, more present, and more connected to themselves.
My first ice bath at Reset Wild Spa lasted 4½ minutes, and I was instantly hooked. I knew I’d found my people. What draws me most to RESET is the shared ethos: an experience rooted in ritual, nature, and genuine human connection.

Spa Host
My wife first introduced me to RESET Wild Spa, I was attracted by the sauna and the chance to unwind. I’d tried cold baths before, but the ice bath was a new to me, a challenge that took intense focus to overcome. In contrast, the sauna allows me to switch off completely, two ends of the spectrum in one experience.
After years in the corporate world, the opportunity to work in nature doing something healthy and enjoyable feels like a breath of fresh air. Outside of RESET, I’m a dad to two young children and spend my time in the Chilterns having family adventures, mountain biking, running. I hope everyone who visits RESET will feel welcome, relaxed, and free to enjoy their time.

Spa Host
Nature has always been my reset button - where everything slows down and perspective returns. A lifelong love of sport and adventure has taught me the importance of holistic wellbeing and the power of slowing down to recharge. Whether walking, running, swimming, surfing or simply breathing in fresh air, I’m reminded how grounding it is to reconnect with the natural world.
That same connection draws me to sauna and ice bath therapy - a powerful way to reset the body and mind, especially when shared outdoors with like-minded people. Joining the team at RESET felt like a natural fit; I love being part of a space that helps people pause, breathe, and reconnect - with nature, themselves, and each other.
