The Awakening for Women

A weekend to be alive

September 12-14, 2025

Northwoods of Central Wisconsin

 

At The Awakening, you will be guided through a sacred journey of healing, embodiment, and deep self-connection. By the end of this powerful retreat, you’ll leave with:

  • A profound connection to your body and the sacred wisdom of your divine feminine energy

  • Practical tools for cultivating radical self-love and compassionate care for all parts of you—including those that have felt unloved or forgotten

  • The ability to release shame, fear, and limiting beliefs that have kept you small—so you can step fully into your power

  • A renewed sense of freedom and joy in your body, heart, and mind

  • Deep, soul-nourishing connections with other women walking a similar path of self-discovery and reclamation

  • The lived experience of true Sisterhood—where your authentic self is seen, celebrated, and lovingly held

  • Embodied practices that awaken your sensual, intuitive, and emotional aliveness

  • Personalized support and hands-on guidance to help you anchor these practices into your daily life

  • A strengthened connection to your intuition, as you learn to trust and follow the innate wisdom of your body

  • The inner clarity and confidence to move forward in life with courage, softness, and sovereignty

Who This Retreat is For

This retreat is for women who feel the quiet (or not-so-quiet) call for more—more connection, more pleasure, more freedom in their bodies, and more truth in their lives.

It’s for you if:

  • You’re at the beginning of your sexual awakening and are ready to explore this path with curiosity, reverence, and joy

  • You want to better understand your body—its desires, rhythms, boundaries, and wisdom

  • You feel a hunger for deeper intimacy—with yourself, with others, and with life itself

  • You long for a safe, supportive space to explore pleasure without shame or pressure

  • You crave authentic connection and sisterhood with other women who are also awakening, healing, and rising

  • You’re ready to release old stories and open to new possibilities in how you relate to your body, your sensuality, and your power

Whether you’re stepping into this journey for the first time or returning to reclaim a deeper part of yourself, The Awakening offers a sacred space to come home to the truth of who you are.
