Retreats for fierce women who want to rest and reconnect.

You’ve spent years achieving, caring, or surviving — showing up for everyone and everything around you, but when it comes to being there for yourself, it feels harder.

Whether you’ve driven yourself to succeed, carried the emotional load for others, or learned to stay strong through pain, your show up with fierce devotion.

And sometimes that fierce love has left you drained, stretched thin, or even disconnected from your own needs.

Our retreats are designed to help you reconnect with the root of that fierce love — to honor the depth of your care without losing yourself inside of it..

To get clear about what truly nourishes you, so you can serve, love, and show up in the world without burning out.

This isn’t about asking you to care less.
It’s about helping you care in a way that includes you.

  • "This retreat blew me away! I feel like I was able to reconnect with my inner child and true self; parts of myself that I have not paid attention to in a long time. That was such a gift that brought me joy through play and community. Dez was able to offer a safe place to be vulnerable that allowed connection and healing. I was not expecting how powerful the work we did together would be. My nervousness of meeting strangers in a new international city faded quickly. I was met with warmth and care. I am so appreciative of this experience, the woman I met, and Dez's expertise."

  • "This retreat cracked me open in the best way. I’ve never felt so held—by a space, by a person, by a group of women. Dez was one of the kindest, most grounded, safe humans I’ve ever met. She created a safe container for all of us. For our emotions, our stories, our silence, our tears, our joy. I felt deeply seen without even having to say a word. And when I did speak, there was no judgment—just love. Deep, real love."

    Retreat Guest

  • "The venue was breathtaking. It had this kind of beauty that made my body soften. The energy of the place felt sacred, calm, nurturing. The owners and the chef took such good care of us. Every detail felt intentional. We were cared for in ways I didn’t even know I needed."

    Retreat Guest

  • "The women I shared this experience with changed my life. They showed up fully and bravely. Their honesty, their willingness to be vulnerable, their courage to feel deeply—it created a kind of connection I’ve never felt before. They feel like soul family now. Not just friends, but women I will carry with me for the rest of my life. I’ll never be able to thank Dez enough for this experience. For what she created. For how she held us. For how she helped us hold ourselves. This retreat was life-changing. If someone I love ever felt called to do deep inner work in a space that is safe, sacred, and full of heart—I would send them here. Every time."

    Retreat Guest

  • "If you have any inkling of interest, do not ignore it. As someone who debated it for a long time, I only wish I had gone sooner! It is such a gift to yourself that will be cherished for much longer than you'll be away. It is the first time where I have returned from a trip feeling deeply recharged, grounded in myself and in harmony with my inner voice. The worries of the world will slip away while you have time and space to listen inward and connect with your own mind. While getting in touch with yourself, you will build cherished connection with others along the way!"

    Retreat Guest

  • "I felt truly seen, held, known, and appreciated. Maybe more so than ever before in my life because it was from a group of strangers, which totally healed me. I left feeling really sad, but equally grateful. What shifted for me was that now I have proof/evidence that this kind of healing/safety is real and possible for me."

    Retreat Guest

  • "I thought I was going to on a retreat for a luxurious getaway-an extra special birthday gift to myself. Turns out, I was actually going to meet the unseen, unacknowledged parts of myself that I'd buried over 20 years ago. What started as 5 days of self-celebration (organized by the brilliant Dez) turned into one of the most powerful growth accelerators of my life."

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS -

  • NOPE, our wellness retreats are NOT therapy and they are not a substitute for mental health counseling or any other healthcare service.

    Our wellness retreats operate under a support model. When we work together in this way, we will be supporting you towards your specific and self-identified goals for wellbeing or self-improvement.

    It’s important to note, that while we are also licensed therapists, our wellness retreats are NOT mental health counseling, nor are they considered a healthcare service, and should NOT be used as a substitute for any healthcare service.

    If you require mental health support or any healthcare service, we will provide you with referrals for a healthcare provider.

  • We completely understand how intimidating it can be to travel alone to a foreign country as a woman. We want everyone to feel safe and comfortable, so we have built all of our retreats to be very hands-on. We pick everyone up directly from the airport so you do not have to find your way to the center on your own. We help ease anxiety by helping arrange everything beforehand, from packing lists to clear instructions on flight times to even scheduling calls with those who may need a bit more assurance. We plan to hold your hand every step of the way.

  • We have been so very lucky to have had incredible women attend our retreats. The women have come from all walks of life and all age groups, but have formed very deep and long lasting relationships. We believe this is because we all come together with the same purpose. We all want to heal and grow and experience transformation. With this being the guiding force leading women to our retreats, we find that everyone can connect, no matter their background.

  • Each full day will include accessible yoga, meditation, and/or breath work that is designed to teach skills for soothing, up to 2 therapeutic workshops, and optional process groups to assist with integration of the material and curriculum you will be learning on the retreat, as well as free time to enjoy the grounds, connect with nature, engage in play, and seek adventure.

  • Re·treat /rəˈtrēt/ - an act of moving back or withdrawing.

    Retreating can be seen as a negative thing, but when it comes to doing deep exploration and inner child work, withdrawing from our busy world of distractions allows us to focus, to retreat into ourselves, without all of the outside noise.

    You get 6 uninterrupted days of profound self-exploration at this retreat in Italy. This is something we rarely get at home. We believe that by giving ourselves the time and space to retreat we can unleash a transformation

  • Yes! No yoga experience is required. The yoga at this retreat will be accessible for most bodies and skill levels.

  • The yoga that is offered on this retreat is a mixture of Hatha and Vinyasa Yoga, Restorative Yoga, Yoga Nidra, meditation, guided imagery, and breath work. Yoga offered in the morning will be an invigorating flow designed to help you wake up the mind and body and yoga offered in the evening will be a relaxing and restorative practice to help you prepare for deep sleep.

    All of the yoga offered is therapeutic in nature and trauma-informed. Unlike some classes you may find in a typical yoga studio, this yoga is really meant to help you manage distress and calm the central nervous system so that you can be more fully present and receptive of the therapeutic process.
