Wise Woman Retreat
August 23-26, 2024 on Lake Michigan
The Wise Woman Retreat is a 3-day initiation for women of color medicine keepers who long to host powerful healing experiences that disrupt the harm of white supremacist patriarchal violence and amplify the frequency of freedom through joy, pleasure, and decolonial dreaming.
Join us to birth the blueprint for your next healing event by connecting to the wisdom of your body, reclaiming ancestral gifts in your lineage, and visualizing your unique legacy of liberation.
Reclaim your power + Remember your magic
The systems are crumbling, and it’s imperative that you develop a strong spiritual foundation to sustain these times.
There is wisdom within you here to help heal us all.
Unearth the depths of you lurking in the shadows longing to be seen and heard.
Your rage. Your grief. Your gifts. Your joy. Your pleasure.
The parts you’ve denied and suppressed in order to be polite and respectable.
No more.
This is a reclamation.
A remembrance of your innate wholeness, worthiness, and divinity.
Take your place.
Now is the time wise woman.
Retreat Themes + Workshops
-
Shed the shackles of internalized oppression and decolonize your imagination to expand your vision of what's possible for you and your community. Get a peek into your unique legacy of liberation that honors your ancestors and creates pathways of possibility for future generations.
-
Oracle card reading to connect with the ancestor most in support of your path as a medicine woman, altar tending, and welcoming in their wisdom throughout the weekend to notice how they communicate with you most (visions, sensations, insights, etc)
-
Peel back the layers of urgency, not-enoughness, and disconnection systems of colonization have placed on your body to return to the truth that you are whole worthy and divine just as you are. Moving through stress and stagnation stored in the body and activating feminine radiance with sensual stretches, dance, and hula hooping. Notice what gifts are revealed through your body as a beacon of ancient wisdom passed down for centuries in your DNA.
-
Dive deep into your inner world to feel the weight of individual, ancestral, and collective grief, anger, and despair held in the body so you can alchemize it into ecstatic bliss, limitless possibility, and loving action. Specific attention given to moving through the fear of being seen (the witch wound) so you can leave with greater confidence and clarity in your unique magic.
-
Develop a signature structure for the sacred spaces you lead that integrates embodied wisdom, ancestral gifts from your lineage, and intuitive rituals. Map the elements that help you create transformative experiences to create a blueprint for your next healing event. Whether you’re holding space online, in-person, 1:1, or in groups – your freedom framework will help you confidently create and trust in spirit-led strategy.
Schedule
Day 1
You’ll be greeted with a mocktail to welcome you to our oasis at 10am. We’ll start the morning with an opening ceremony to set intentions and meet the other women. After a delicious vegan brunch, we’ll dive into the first workshop on deprogramming and decolonial dreaming. Free time at the beach for integration and sunset followed by communal dinner. We’ll end the evening with yin yoga and ancestor connection practices.
Day 2
Wake up to tea, smoothies, and light breakfast. We’ll begin the day with a somatic slow flow to move through stress stored in the body. Settle into stillness after our movement practice for emotional alchemy breathwork to alchemize ancestral anger into loving action. We’ll nourish ourselves with a plant-protein-rich lunch for grounding and have a few hours of free time to swim, rest, and enjoy spaciousness. The evening concludes with a class to help you develop your freedom framework and delicious dinner reflecting on insights from the day.
Day 3
Sleep in, take it slow, and spend the morning as you desire for our final full day together. We’ll gather for brunch then make our way to the beach to cleanse in the sacred waters with a ritual to lovingly let go of old stories, beliefs, and behaviors as you reclaim your ancestral power and magic: the wise woman initiation. Open to joy and embody ecstatic bliss as we dance to celebrate all of the divine insights received over the weekend. During dinner we’ll have a closing sharing circle to reflect on what’s next for you and your legacy of liberation.

Retreat Testimonials
I’m one month sober and already seeing so many results. The beginning of quitting weed was always so hard because of the detox process, but being at your retreat helped so much and I’m so grateful you made this happen. This was one of the best decisions I made for my overall wellbeing! Now after so many years, I feel like myself again. So much clarity, super energized, more present and in tune with my emotions.
~Jazmin
I’m leaving this experience feeling WHOLE. It feels almost unreal to know this part of me. I’m sitting here in my body, comfortable, FREE– and there were a lot of times that I didn’t feel like that. It feels like a whole new life!
~Davona
I’m focusing on leaning into ease without the presence of guilt. Like accepting that it’s okay for things to feel easy and not needing hardship as validation. I hadn’t realized before how much I thought that I had to push myself to the point of difficulty to feel like I was putting in enough effort. I also left feeling really validated in my authentic self. The Wild n Free retreat helped fuel my dreams for the future of living in tune with nature.
