Retreats are not events.
They're alchemy.
A true retreat is a threshold, a doorway into a deeper becoming. It is a place where a woman meets herself again, remembers her truth, and emerges transformed.
You have felt the call.
The desire to create something sacred.
The pull to hold experiences that are not performative or surface level.
The knowing that you are meant to guide others through profound transformation.
You are not here to host vacations.
You are here to open portals.
You are here to lead women home to themselves.
Retreat Alchemy is the eight week initiation into becoming this type of facilitator.

Who This Program IS For
Retreat Alchemy IS for women who feel the unmistakable pull toward deeper leadership.
It is for those who know they are here to guide others into transformation, not from performance, but from presence, embodiment, and devotion.
This training is ideal for women who:
-
feel called to lead retreats and want to do it with integrity, confidence, and mastery
-
currently lead retreats or have the desire but haven't started yet. They desire deeper skill, safer space holding, and more powerful outcomes
-
are coaches, healers, mentors, therapists, guides, teachers, space holders, or spiritual leaders
-
want to blend somatic, emotional, energetic, and spiritual facilitation in a grounded way
-
value ethics, trauma informed awareness, and sacred responsibility
-
desire to create safe, transformative, emotionally coherent retreat containers
-
want to learn how to work with group dynamics, emotional release, and intuitive leadership
-
believe that retreat work is sacred and deserves proper training
-
are willing to rise into a higher capacity of presence, service, and leadership
-
feel the call to bring their medicine to women in a more immersive, embodied way
-
This is for the woman who knows there is more within her.
This is your next evolution.
Who This
Program Is Not For
Retreat Alchemy is NOT for everyone, and that is intentional.
This work requires depth, devotion, integrity, and a willingness to meet yourself honestly.
This program is not for you if:
-
you are looking for a quick template or surface level retreat planning checklist
-
you want to host retreats as a “vacation with workshops” rather than true transformational spaces
-
you are not willing to learn trauma informed, ethical, emotionally intelligent facilitation
-
you are not ready to hold yourself to a higher standard of presence, responsibility, and integrity
-
you do not feel called to guide deeper work or to support others through emotional and somatic processes
-
you are unwilling to be a student again, receive feedback, or be supported in your growth
-
you want results without putting in the inner and outer work
-
you are expecting a business mastermind rather than a sacred facilitation training
-
you are not available to show up live, participate, or engage in the learning process
Retreat Alchemy is a space for women who feel a real calling, who are willing to rise into leadership with grounded devotion, and who want to lead retreats that actually change lives.
If that is you, you will know.
If it is not, this is not your season for this work.
Your Leadership Is Calling
There comes a moment when the soul asks for more.
More depth.
More presence.
More service.
More leadership.
If you feel the invitation, Retreat Alchemy is the place where you will meet that evolution with clarity, confidence, and sacred mastery.
Your retreat.
Your leadership.
Your medicine.
Your time.
Join Retreat Alchemy.
