Step into a weekend designed for softness and renewal, a space where presence, beauty and nourishment guide the way. Here we honor both the steady ground beneath us and the blossoming growth ahead.
This retreat is an invitation to tend to yourself with care and intention, to embrace the feminine, the luxurious and the deeply nurturing. It is a season of beginnings, a time to plant seeds for what you are ready to grow and to take an active, empowered role in your healing.
Together we will gather in a sacred container of clarity, connection and courage, strengthening the roots that hold us while opening to the bold energy that calls us forward. With practices of attunement and presence we will soften, expand and step into renewal with ease.
A blessing to mark the threshold of this new cycle and a reminder of the inner strength that rises when we choose to take charge of our own becoming.
This retreat is open to everyone. No prior experience is needed. Space is intentionally limited to keep our circle intimate, so early registration is encouraged. Early bird sign-up ends December 1, 2025.
Our retreat will be held at Mount Olivet Conference & Retreat Center — a place of beauty and ease. Just a short drive from the Twin Cities, it offers the perfect escape from the business and
busy-ness of everyday life, with nourishing meals, quiet trails, a pool, sauna, hot tub, and spacious grounds for rest and renewal.
Optional personalized readings and energy work sessions will be available throughout the weekend for an additional cost.
