For so many of us—the mothers, the wives, the single women, the career builders, the fixers, maintainers, and creators—our ability to deeply give to our families, communities, and the world is in direct correlation with our ability to deeply recharge. We are in deep need of a place to retreat but sometimes the greatest strength is found not in a group retreat, but in the radical act of prescence with ourselves.

The Radical Act of Choosing Yourself

Many of us crave retreat, but sometimes the greatest renewal is found not in a group, but in the radical act of choosing yourself. It is often hard to step away, yet the profound strength and independence gained from that choice is one of the most beautiful gifts we can grant ourselves.

The Journey to Presence is your permission slip. It’s for every woman who knows that true restoration comes from booking the flight, showing up alone, and granting herself the moment to just sit with you.

My Own Permission Slip

My work is inspired by my own solo journey—a trip that was scary, yet undeniably aligned with what my soul demanded. As I reflected on the brave women who supported my choice, I realized that others also need this clarity and encouragement to find themselves restored and, in some cases, reinvented.

It is from that inspiration—and the support of my community of ruthlessly powerful women—that this journey was born.
