What to Expect:
For six days, we gather as women have always gathered — in circle, in story, in the presence of the earth. We walk the medicine wheel one direction at a time, allowing each shield to reveal a new contour of our becoming. We wander. We rest. We tell our stories and hear them mirrored in the eyes of others.
And then, on the fourth morning, we cross a soft threshold:
a 24-hour solo fast on the land.
A day and night of being held by wind, water, trees, and sky.
A time to empty.
A time to listen.
A time to let the world speak back to you.
You will return with a fuller voice, a clearer knowing, and a story marked by the land itself.
This is a retreat of remembrance — of body, of voice, of lineage, of truth.
A circle for women ready to shed what no longer carries them and step toward what is quietly waiting.
Each phase of a woman's life asks something different of us and offers something different in return. By honoring where we truly stand in the cycle of womanhood, we reclaim the wisdom that is lost when we are asked to live out of rhythm with our lives.
Who This is For:
This retreat is for women standing at a threshold — those navigating life transitions:
identity shifts
grief
healing
menopause
recovery
motherhood
elderhood
It is for women who feel the call to pause, to listen more deeply, and to honor the natural cycles shaping their lives. Whether you are crossing into a new chapter, releasing an old story, or longing to reconnect with your embodied wisdom, this journey offers a sacred container for reflection, initiation, and renewal. Rooted in ancient rites of passage and guided by the rhythms of the land, this retreat welcomes women ready to tend their inner landscape, reclaim their voice, and step forward with clarity, reverence, and truth.
“Walking. I am listening to a deeper way. Suddenly, all my ancestors are behind me. Be still, they say. Watch and Listen. You are the result of the love of thousands.” - Linda Hogan
An Invitation:
There is a voice beneath the noise, waiting to be remembered. It rises slowly, like roots through the soil, like breath through the body. To find it, we must pause, walk gently with the land, and listen with our whole selves. In the sacred circle of the medicine wheel, we gather to deconstruct the stories that no longer serve and to call forth the voice that carries us into wholeness. Through nature, ceremony, and community, we reclaim what has always been ours: the courage to speak our truth and live by it.
There comes a moment when a woman feels the pull to step back from the noise of her life, to walk the land with a question in her chest, and to listen for the voice inside her that has gone quiet but never disappeared.
