Living in the world today can feel particularly challenging and vulnerable.
With the taxing demands of our 24/7 lives our connections to ourselves and one another can wane.
Our confidence can take a dip.
Our resilience and spirit can be diminished.
As a result, you may be feeling one of two ways: dull and exhausted, or wound up too tightly and anxious.
Are you moving through your days feeling the weight of the world dragging you down or uncomfortably on edge?
Neither of these painful conditioned ruts occurred overnight, and of course, you didn’t set out to live each day feeling more disconnected and constricted.
You intended to focus on your own well-being, self-care, and the things you find most important. Instead, unbelievably (still don’t know exactly how it happened!), you got derailed.
Others’ needs have come first.
And, that clarity and support you thought you had, well it vanished. Either that or you’re too tired to access it!
That path you want to travel seems so far away, and you’ve been unable to access your own innate wisdom and cues as a compass.
The end result?
Your zest is gone.
You need rejuvenation.
And this mini-retreat is your first step to reclaiming yourself!

Core Presence™ is that spark of aliveness and energy within each of us.
Tapping into your Core Presence™ will allow you to learn practices to embody your innate fullness, creativity and radiance.
It feels like coming home to yourself.
As women, it’s deeply nourishing to gather in a women’s-only space to deeply explore our Core Presence™ and express our body’s natural movement –powerful, beautiful, delightful – from a place of internal satisfaction and creative expression, not performance.
As women, when we sync up with the spark of our Core Presence™ within our bodies, we lead ourselves and others from a place of relaxed power. From this place of wholeness, we create our most vibrant, meaningful lives.
"If you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change.”
