Boyne Falls, MI | September 4-7
ROOTED
WOMEN’S RETREAT
You are being called home - to your body, your breath, your intuition, your earth. To root deeply, so you may rise fully.
“ROOTED” is more than a retreat. It is a reclamation. A devotion to the wisdom within. A space to embody your sensuality, explore your depths, and ground into the power of your feminine essence.
You’re invited deep into the serene wilderness of Northern Michigan, the ROOTED Women's Retreat awaits. Calling you to reconnect with your most authentic self through the wisdom of your body, breath, earth, and intuition.
This isn't just another self-love retreat. ROOTED invites you to journey beyond surface-level awareness into true embodiment - strengthening the very foundation of who you are.
Over 4 days in the lush northern woods, we will journey into the root and sacral chakras, awakening the body through movement, breath, ritual, and sacred sisterhood.
Together, we will soften and strengthen, nourish and liberate, feel and express - all of you, fully.

Great question! Retreats are not just vacations, they’re immersive healing experiences designed to support deep inner work, nervous system restoration, and heart-centered connection.
Your investment includes:
A private, full-property stay at a peaceful sanctuary in nature

Daily guided movement, embodiment, and breathwork practices
Sacred sisterhood circles, rituals, ceremonies, and creative workshops
All materials, excursions, and wellness experiences (cold plunge, sauna, lake day, etc.)
Organic coaching, 1:1 availability with me, and support throughout the journey
We totally understand and welcome price questions. What I’ve found (and what many guests say after retreat) is that the transformation, clarity, and healing that unfolds is truly priceless.
This is an investment in your well-being, your nervous system, your joy, your clarity, and your return to Self. Only you can know if that kind of inner nourishment and sacred pause is something you’re ready to gift yourself.
And if the call is there, we’re here to hold you in it.
