About the event

Embracing Life Again: A Coming Back Alive Retreat

June 4–7 | Coan River, Lottsburg, Virginia


3 Nights | Women’s Retreat

For the last several years, life has asked a lot of us.

Shock. Uncertainty. Loss. Change. Division.


The world shifted… and in many ways, so did we.

Some moved through it with more ease than others, but nearly everyone can agree:


Our foundations were shaken and things are different now.

For many women, survival mode quietly became the norm.

Getting through the day.

Holding it together.

Pushing forward.


Numbing. Coping. Enduring.

It has been six years since the pandemic experience altered our reality and many are still not feeling okay with life.


This retreat is an invitation to gently step out of survival mode…

and remember what it feels like to truly be alive again.

You’ve survived… now it’s time to live with love again.


A Heart-Led Reset in a Beautiful Riverfront Cottage

Join us for three nourishing nights at a peaceful cottage on the Coan River in Lottsburg, Virginia.

This intimate women’s retreat (limited 10 participants) is designed to feel safe, honored, and gently reawakened to a life full of love and passion.

In this beautiful space, we will:

  • Honor what you’ve been through

  • Honor the coping mechanisms that helped you survive

  • Reset your nervous system

  • Reopen your heart

  • Reignite joy and passion

  • Reconnect to loving life, loving yourself, and loving others


Simply, this is a coming back alive experience.


What We’ll Experience Together

Over the course of three nights and four days, you’ll be guided through a balanced rhythm of structure, ease and flow, including:

  • Deeply relaxing sound baths

  • Guided meditations and healing

  • Gentle heart-opening practices

  • Creative art expression

  • Partner connection and growth exercises

  • Nervous system soothing and survival-mode reset

  • Future self and thriving activation practices

  • Quiet lake time for integration and reflection

  • Meaningful sisterhood connection


There will be space to rest… laugh… share… breathe.


Nourishment & Community

We will be preparing our meals together in a relaxed and communal way, creating connection not only through healing experience, but through shared living.


All meals and snacks are included in the ticket price from Thursday afternoon through Sunday breakfast.

Expect simple, nourishing meals such as:

  • Eggs and pancakes

  • Sandwiches and salads

  • Pasta and comforting dinners

  • Fresh fruits and vegetables

  • Snacks, sweets, crackers, and chips

  • Coffee, tea, and healthy beverage options


All food will be organic as much as possible and Gluten-free and dairy-free options will be available upon request.

There is something beautiful about cooking together, eating together, and living together for a few days. It creates an organic bond that no workshop alone can replicate.


Who Is This Retreat Ideal For?

This retreat is for you if:

  • You’ve been in “get through the day” mode for far too long

  • You feel emotionally tired but don’t want intense therapy

  • You crave community and meaningful connection

  • You want to feel joy  and love again

  • You want to remember who you are and why you are here in this life


You do not need to stay in survival mode.

You simply need to be ready to feel alive again.
