A cross-generational gathering where women trade lived wisdom, refine their personal narratives, and leave with a story they’re proud to live.

Why this retreat?

Because a woman’s story is a compass. When we weave perspectives across decades, we grow faster, steadier, and with more grace.

You’ll:

  • Share and be witnessed in facilitated circles across generations.

  • Edit or create an aligned story you want to live (with guided prompts + coaching).

  • Experience a private group sound bath at the Integratron—an iconic, acoustically resonant wooden dome in nearby Landers (60-minute session with ~35–40 minutes of live crystal bowls). Integratron

  • Eat well and rest deeply with chef-prepared, luxury-catered meals (breakfast, lunch, dinner).

  • Savor the desert: sunrise stillness, stargazing, and spacious downtime.

  • Go home clear, connected, and resourced.

Tell a story you want to live, so you can live a story you want to tell.

Who it’s for?

Women in their 20s–90s who are…

  • Ready to be both teacher and student.

  • In a life transition (identity, work, health, relationships) and craving clarity.

  • Wanting a circle that respects depth, difference, and dignity.

We are the granddaughters of the women who couldn't and the ancestors of those who will.

What’s included?

Everything you need, nothing you don't.

Your investment includes:

  • 3 nights / 4 days of programming and accommodations (Thursday evening–Sunday afternoon).

  • Catered Meals: breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks.

  • Transformative Materials: story workbook, reflection prompts, and integration plan.

  • A refined personal narrative you can stand on (and speak from).

  • Cross-generational mentorship & new friendships.

  • Grounded practices for decision-making, holding boundaries, and taking aligned action.

Spots are limited.

We’re curating a balanced circle of women across decades and life stages — from those just stepping into their purpose to those who’ve spent a lifetime embodying it. Each voice adds to the collective wisdom we’ll share in the desert.

Participation is by application only to ensure the group feels aligned, intimate, and diverse in experience.
Space is intentionally limited to create the depth of connection and safety that this kind of work deserves.

This is for the woman who feels the nudge — the whisper that says, it’s time to pause, listen, and bloom again.

When you apply, you’re saying yes to:

  • Being seen and celebrated for who you are and the wisdom you carry.

  • Listening deeply to women whose paths look different from yours — and learning from them.

  • Letting the desert slow you down long enough to hear your own truth again.

Once your application is reviewed, you’ll receive a follow-up email with next steps for payment, lodging details, and travel guidance.

When the right women say yes, circles become sanctuaries.
