It’s been over 3 years since we have been gathering as a community! The wonder of co-creating together, witnessing each other, seeing our own healing and growth reflected in each other.
In December 2025 we realized our dream of an overnight Sacred Kin retreat, the Soulful Retreat! We look forward to more Sacred Kin retreats! At our retreats, we hold a sacred intention of invitation into deeper authenticity, a more true and soulful expression of self which moves those around you toward their own authentic souls.
What we have nurtured and witnessed in our community is a belonging based in authenticity, a big difference from “fitting in.”
Together, we have co-created rituals, art, altars, dance parties, laughter, friendships, sweet moments, and community woven from the unique soul essence of many women.
Dream with us of our next whole weekend of soulful being, belonging, connection, and expression, rooted in sisterhood. May you walk away with a deeply nourished, renewed, and re-inspired soul.
Nourish your Soul,
Weave in Sacred Community
