Join us for a magical and unique Circle gathering for women coaches, healers, therapists, purpose-led entrepreneurs, and change leaders.
This is your Sacred Space for connection, healing, wisdom and inspiration. It’s time for you to step back from all you give, to be nourished and held in a safe, Sacred Circle of Wise Women and experienced guides who can support you on your journey of feminine awakening, healing, and leadership.

Your Sacred Space
for Connection, Healing, Wisdom, and Inspiration

Many of us are following the calling to hold space for others in some way. It’s in our DNA as women. We are the life givers, the nurturers, the healers, the educators, the connectors and the all-round carers of life and relationship – not just in our families but in our communities, organisations, and businesses too.

This is essential, Sacred work that is needed in all corners of our society. And yet, as the pressure and stress of these changing uncertain times only increases, so does the need for deeper emotional holding and support, and the presence of our embodied feminine wisdom.

The invitation this presents is to remember to include our own needs for healing and wellbeing. Are you ready to accept it?

When the pressure is on, it’s all too easy to get caught in subtle patterns of over-care for others and under-care for ourselves. This isn’t just personal, it’s the result of a collective feminine ‘wound’ in our culture.

Over time this can leave us feeling exhausted, overwhelmed, and disconnected from our own sense of wellbeing, purpose, and power, and, ironically, from the communities of support that could resource us along the way.

The truth is, it is only through doing our own inner work that we can align with, fulfil, and keep following our heart’s calling to serve in the world.

This is why we’re creating a uniquely
held space for you to:

  • Reconnect with yourself and make space to re-awaken and deepen your own inner journey of healing and transformation in warmly guided and nature-held space
  • Be held, appreciated and supported in a warm community of women, on a similar path of purpose, with whom you can relate and safely share yourauthentic story, experience and wisdom.
  • Practice and experience how your core capacity and confidence in holding space for others grows as you nurture your own emotional and spiritual wellbeing and more deeply embody your feminine wisdom.
  • Connect in person to dance, play and celebrate the journey of feminine awakening and leadership we are on together in a beautiful, nature held space where all aspects of your
    authentic power can be expressed.

Experience The Power of Circle

Take a shared journey with us into a transformative space
underpinned by our unique set of 8 shared Agreements.

During this retreat you’ll experience how we live these 8 Agreements in Circle together, creating a shared field of collective healing and wisdom, making it safe for you to bring your whole self to the experience and receive what you need to reSource yourself and strengthen your authentic power and Sovereignty.

In an emergent space which will be uniquely influenced by the needs of those women present, you’ll receive the deep holding and facilitation from Joey, as well as other experienced Circle guides and fellow participants.

You will also have the chance to practice and deepen your own capacity to witness and hold space for other women, without ‘over-care’ and from a place of embodied wellbeing and grounded wisdom in yourself.

You will find more information about these 8 Agreements and what to expect from our time together on our booking link below.

Are you ready to share your voice, your unique gift and your infinite wisdom as a feminine leader?
Then this retreat is here to support you.

In whatever way you are holding space for others in your life and work, this is a space for you to pause for breath; to sink into a Sacred feminine space where you can reconnect with yourself and your inner process of healing and restoration – with the guidance of experience facilitators and the mutual support and wisdom of women on a shared path, who can meet you right where you are.
