Release & Rewild
with Krysten Rodriguez
October 9 - 16, 2026
For the woman who is ready to release the version of herself that was built to survive, and remember what it's like to be whole, playful, radiant, and alive within herself
Life is serious enough.
This retreat is a reminder that life gets to be fun and blissful.
Release & Rewild is an immersive experience devoted to awakening the part of you that laughs easily and knows how to savor beauty, pleasure, and presence in all aspects of life.
This retreat isn’t about doing more work on yourself; it’s about loosening the grip - Remembering who you are beneath the version of you that was conditioned to rush, perform, and over-exert in a patriarchal world.
Softening, laughing, exploring, playing
Letting yourself be a little (or a lot) untamed again
And remember that you are the source of your joy, fulfillment, pleasure, and wholeness.
Release & Rewild is an invitation to step out of over-efforting, over-thinking, and over-holding it together, and soften into a way of being that feels whole, liberated, joyful, and alive.
Healing happens here, yes -but through pleasure, play, connection, and aliveness.

Writing to Authorship:
The Leadership Leap
An Immersion with The ServantEDGE
November 8 - 15, 2026
You've been carrying a book. An essay. A message the world needs but hasn't heard.
This immersion is for writers realizing they are about to lead — and for leaders craving to write. For nine days at Finca Mia, surrounded by cloud forest, river sound, and the radical peace of a country that chose teachers over soldiers, you will do the interior work that transforms not just your writing, but your willingness to stand behind it.
Led by former U.S. diplomat and executive coach Stephanie Mikulasek, award-winning publisher Sierra Melcher of Red Thread Publishing, and strategic communications leader Susan Ellison-McGee, this is guided, professional work held in sacred space. You will leave with a clearer sense of your voice, a plan for your message, and a community of extraordinary women who understand exactly what it takes to step into visibility.
Not a silent retreat. Not a craft workshop. A deliberate leap into authorship, authority, and public voice.

Reflect & Connect
with J Miles, Rebekah & Chef Steve
November 18 - 24, 2026
In stillness, we remember who we are. Through nourishment, we give ourselves permission to be cared for. Through song, we find our voice. With our prayers, we release old stories and open ourselves to healing. Through creativity, we remember how to play. In community, we remember that Life is the Ceremony.
Sometimes it can feel like we have to do all of our healing on our own - and while it is true that no one can heal for you, we have found that the most meaningful and lasting forms of healing take place through sacred song and prayer within the safety of community.
Let us open to our inner knowing. Awaken to your creativity and transformative power. Align your practice with your purpose. Nourish mind, body, and spirit from the source. Let us go on this journey together
Families Welcome!

Embrace: Costa Rica
with Mathias Kluger & Maria Garson

Embrace is an invitation.
A call to step fully into the beauty and depth of life.
A space where we honor the light and the shadow, the known and the unknown, the self and the other.
Here, we dance, breathe, touch, and play - we celebrate, explore, and surrender.
To movement. To intimacy. To vulnerability. To love.
This is not just an event - it’s a co-creation. A living, breathing ecosystem where we don’t just receive - we bring our gifts, our truths, our presence.
Come As You Are. Leave More Alive.
What better way to kick off 2027 than feeling
safe to be more of YOU?

Vocal Transformation: Expressions
with Maryn Azoff and Patrick Surdam
January 19 - 26, 2027

What if learning how to use your voice as a tool released years/decades of deeply held energetics within the body?
For anyone who wants to understand what is blocking their unique creative flow and work on their singing voice, this retreat will focus on building confidence and breaking through limitations, both physical and emotional, that prevent us from our fullest expression.
Learning how to free our voice translates to all areas of life.
The world needs your fullest expression, and you hold the tool to unlock just that - the fullest, most expressed YOU!

What if creativity became a doorway into the mystery of
who you truly are?

Guided by Luis Tamani, world-renowned visionary painter from the Amazon, and Maxim, multidisciplinary artist and transformational experience facilitator, you’ll step into a transformative journey designed to open your creative channel and deepen your spiritual path. This retreat is not just for trained artists. It is for seekers, dreamers, and creators who feel called to explore art as a spiritual path and to expand their creativity. No prior experience is needed—only a willingness to listen, surrender, and allow your soul to speak through color, movement, and form.
