It w as the perfect container to do my own work\, while delighting in the witne ssing of the other women’s transformations around me. Through the retrea t\, I was able to de-armour\, process and connect to the divine and this e xperience was so illuminating that I am unsure how to even articulate the words. The days were dreamy and beautifully paced and for the first time\, I was able to really unplug\, relax and reset my nervous system. The week after the retreat\, I had the honour of getting visited by a member of my star family in a waking vision post retreat. I am honoured to be initiate d into such a beautiful sisterhood and will carry these memories with me m y whole life." — Johanne\n\n“The absolute held\, potency of the a cont ainer that was unbroken for the entire duration of the week makes my Scorp io self just salivate. I crave depth and intensity and may I just say\, th is retreat delivered. My cup always felt full. This experience felt ineffa ble. There is a power present in a group setting like this that amplifies intentions and the capacity to move energy. I feel the gratitude pouring t hrough. I have been in other containers and have experience with other “ feminine leaders” and although this is not meant to be the comparison ga me..... I do want to say that the quality of mentorship and guidance was n ot ordinary. Please know that I am deeply honoured to have been a part of this sacred work. Thank you. Thank you.
