A Reflection on Our June Retreat

It’s taken me a little while to land back in my body after our Path to Inner Radiance retreat in June. The truth is, this one felt different.

It didn’t just feel like another retreat, it felt like a sacred initiation

From the moment we gathered in circle, I could feel something ancient and powerful weaving its way through each woman, each breath, each moment of stillness and release. And while I came in as a guide, I also left as a student.

We were held by the land, the healing waters of Joyful Journey Hot Springs, the mountain winds, and the unseen wisdom that always shows up when women gather with open hearts. But even before we began, life tested me, unexpected challenges, emotional waves and my nervous system whispering slow down. I almost didn’t realize it at the time, but that was the beginning of the teaching. The retreat medicine was already working.

This retreat reminded me of something I’ve had to learn again and again! Radiance isn’t something we find. It’s something we uncover! It lives beneath the layers we’ve carried for too long. The expectations. The over giving. The stories that told us we were too much or not enough

'

Through movement, meditation, ritual, and sisterhood, we softened those layers. We listened. We cried. We danced. We rested. We remembered.

We practiced being with what is. Not pushing it away or rushing through it, but allowing it to rise, speak, move, and settle.

Because true radiance doesn’t always come with glitter and light. Sometimes it comes after the cracking. In the rawness. In the quiet realization that we are still here. Still breathing. Still worthy of love.

And for me, this is why I offer these retreats year after year, since 2013. To hold space for the sacred remembering. To witness women, return to their power not by becoming someone new but by reclaiming the truth of who they already are! To create moments where we no longer run from sensation but welcome it with presence.

If you attended Path to Inner Radiance, I would truly love to hear from you. How are you? What stayed with you? I’ve been carrying your radiance with me, and I would love to know what’s unfolding for you now.

And if you’re feeling the call to join me in 2026, I’ll be offering two sacred retreats:

1. The Medicine Within! Held June 26th to 29th, 2026. A weekend devoted to returning to your soul’s natural rhythm and shamanic practices. This retreat is for those who are ready to dance not to be seen but to see. To move through the practice of DanceRituals, soaking in the healing waters, join us in our Sacred Women's Circle, and embodied ceremony. To remember the medicine that already lives within

   
   

2. Mystic Seeing: The Dance of Intuition and Imagination. Held October 16th to 18th, 2026. An awakening of your inner seer. This retreat will activate your third eye through the practices, soul dance, creative expression, sacred circle, and earth-based ceremony. For the woman who’s ready to trust her inner vision and fully embody the magic she carries

Huge discounts are available until August 15 for those ready to say yes early and claim their place in either or both of these life-changing experiences.

This year's retreat was also enriched by two incredible collaborators, I am so grateful for

The fierce beauty and embodied wisdom of Twisted Sister Yoga

And the soul-stirring healing and sound alchemy of Vibrational Transcendence

Since returning home, I’ve been committed to keeping the presence alive.

Through daily stillness. Through honest reflection. Through the deep knowing that we are building something meaningful together.

If you're ready to join the next chapter of this sacred journey, I’d be honored to walk beside you

With love,

Wendy
