Sacred & Sovereign
Oct 29 - Nov 1
2026 Fall Women’s Retreat
honoring the woman who was
reclaiming the woman within
This is an opportunity to step away from the busyness of life for three days and position yourself for a deep transformative experience filled with laughter, deep conversations (maybe some tears-tissues provided), delicious nutritious food, nature and plenty of time for integration and rest.
Throughout our time together we'll make heart felt connections, cross the threshold of our own inner sanctuary through a labyrinth meditation walk, gather around the dinner table for ritual and ceremony, melt into a healing sound bath, drop into our body with a guided meditation and somatic release , remove energetic debris through reiki, and enjoy beautiful nutritious meals together.
This retreat is being held intentionally on Samhain/Halloween weekend. Friday evening we will participate in The Dumb Supper together and Saturday night we will celebrate this night of righteous revelry & remembrance where you can dress up and come as the most authentic version of YOU as we celebrate one another’s renewal together.
This three day retreat has been thoughtfully curated as an invitation into deep transformation—a sacred space to reconnect with your inner wisdom, remember that you are your own sacred space, and explore the parts of yourself that are ready to be seen, felt, and integrated.
*All ticket registrations include three nights of lodging, all meals, snacks, beverages, wellness sessions and workshops. Travel to and from the venue is not included.
Why this retreat?
We have all gone through different stages in our lives and at some point we have forgotten who we are at the core of our being. We no longer stand in our own truth but have adopted other people's opinions of who we are allowed to be. This retreat is about honoring every version of yourself and integrating the shadow into your light. You won’t be releasing them because they are a part of you, You will be honoring them. Every version of you. Even the past versions of yourself that you may be afraid to face, or are ashamed to look at, gets to be seen, acknowledged, and welcomed home.
This retreat is for those women who are ready to remember. Remembering who you were before you learned to perform, shrink, or apologize for taking up space. To remember why you came here in the first place. You won't be an observer here. You'll be a full participant in your own healing, You won't be alone in this. You will be walking this path alongside other women who are doing the same brave thing. We will walk this path together joining hands and hearts as one.
During our time together, using a blend of healing modalities, we'll create a container that is deep, honest, and safe enough to actually do the work. Your body will be nourished. Your soul will be witnessed. Your heart will be held. And if you're not sure you remember how to hear your own spirit anymore, we'll practice that together too — sitting in presence, asking for guidance, learning to recognize that still, small voice.
That voice that is calling you back to your sacred sovereignty. Fully present, Fully alive!
This retreat is what you have been waiting for. A safe place with like minded women committed to loving you and witnessing your transformation. You really are powerful.
If something in you is already saying yes — that's her. That's the part of you that's been waiting for this. It's time to remember who you are.
Delicious and Nutritious Food
Delicious, nourishing, intentionally prepared meals designed to feed your body, delight your taste buds, and nourish your soul. Doing deep soul work requires some good fuel!
And don’t worry—we won’t leave you hanging between meals. There will be plenty of intentionally prepared snacks too!
The Dumb Supper
Rooted in the ancient Samhain tradition of gathering in silence to honor those who came before us, the Dumb Supper has long been a ritual of remembrance, reflection, and connection during this sacred time of year.
For our Sacred & Sovereign Retreat, we will turn this tradition inward.
Rather than honoring ancestors who have passed, we will create a sacred table for the past versions of ourselves who carried us here.
The girl. The woman. The survivor. The dreamer. The version who didn't know what she knows now.
We will meet these former versions of ourselves with compassion rather than judgment.
There is nothing to fix, release, or leave behind.
Instead, we will listen.
You may grieve. You may feel anger, tenderness, gratitude, sadness, or even joy. You may remember things you haven't allowed yourself to feel in a long time.
Whatever arises, you are invited to let it be felt.
In the quiet of this sacred supper, we will honor our shadows—not as something to overcome, but as parts of ourselves that deserve to be witnessed, understood, and welcomed home.
This is what you’re saying “Yes” too…
My life is mine to inhabit. My voice is mine to use. My inner wisdom is mine to trust. I get to choose who I become from here. And So Do You!

Over these three days together we’ll create space to listen inward, reconnect with your own wisdom, release beliefs and old stories that no longer belong to you, and explore what it means to live from a place of choice rather than obligation. There may be another version of you asking for more room now.
More truth.
More Freedom.
More joy.
More YOU.
This retreat isn’t about reinventing yourself. It’s about coming home to yourself, giving that woman permission to take up space. We’ll laugh, We’ll rest. We’ll go deep. We’ll move, reflect, question and celebrate. There will be room for both the sacred and the beautifully human.
You don’t need to arrive knowing exactly what you’re looking for. Just bring yourself. We’ll take thoughtful care of the rest.
Sound Healing
During our sound healing session, we’re going to slow everything down and give ourselves permission to simply receive.
We’ll settle in, get comfortable, and surround ourselves with the beautiful vibrations of singing bowls, chimes, and other healing instruments.
Think of it as a deep cellular massage, inviting the mind to quiet down, the body to soften, and all that energy you’ve been carrying around to finally move along.
There is nothing to figure out and nothing to accomplish and no “right” way to experience it.
We’re just going to get cozy, lie down, breathe, and receive.
Reiki
Thoughtfully crafted to elevate what matters most.
As we receive Reiki, We’ll settle into stillness and create space to notice what happens when we begin letting go of the roles, expectations, and beliefs that no longer belong to us.
It invites us to move out spiritual debris, listen to our inner wisdom and allow whatever is ready to surface to be gently witnessed.
Labyrinth Meditation
After our Welcome Circle Thursday, we’ll gather at the labyrinth to mark the beginning of our journey together. One by one, we’ll step onto the path with intention, leaving behind the noise and roles of everyday life as we prepare for our weekend together.
This is one of my favorite parts of the retreat because of the space it creates for introspection. With each step, we’ll have an opportunity to slow down, listen more deeply, reflect on what we’re carrying, and become curious about what our inner wisdom wants us to notice.
As we reach the center, we’ll pause, breathe, and acknowledge that we have crossed the threshold into the sacred space we’re creating together.
No rushing. No wrong turns. Just one step at a time as we begin our journey inward.

We’ll gather with warm cacao, creating a safe space for us to speak the truth of our hearts.
Cacao has long been used ceremonially as a plant ally for connection, intention, and heart-centered reflection. As we share it together, in circle we offer a space to safely
remove your armor, be witnessed in your truth and honored in your courage to be seen &
heard. Where you are free to speak openly and honestly. We’ll share stories, intentions, laughter, maybe a few tears, and the things that are asking to be spoken.
Just women sitting together, heart to heart, creating a space where we can be fully ourselves. For thousands of years, women have come together in community for this very reason. Throughout our time together we will hold true to that tradition.
