♥️ Why this retreat matters now ♥️
 
The past few years have left many women feeling frayed at the edges—emotionally stretched, spiritually underfed, and creatively dormant. If you’ve been holding space for everyone else but haven’t had a sacred space to fall into yourself...this is that place.

You don’t just need a break. You need a homecoming. A return to one's self.

 

This retreat is for women from all walks of life.
If you are:

  • Longing for connection with your soul

  • Curious about the deeper truth whispering through the cracks of everyday life

  • Ready to grieve what’s changed and claim what still lives inside you

  • Open to being held in sacred sisterhood, without expectation to perform or produce

 

This isn’t a spa weekend or a quick fix. It’s an immersive, ritual-rich return to your own sacred divinity.

Perhaps you:​

  • Feel your heart longing for a more vibrant connection to life

  • Desire change and personal transformation and are unsure where to start 

  • Are seeking emotional release and a space where you can surrender to healing​

What if you Could:

  • Find a sense of complete surrender in ritual

  • Feel more empowered through the process of healing and creative expression

  • Allow the collective to hold you as you spark your magic and connect with your intuition

  • Express yourself authentically and encourage your deepest truths and desires to come out to play


Let your stories sink into your body, let your heart open to the sound of your voice, allow yourself to explore the farthest reaches of your calling.
