About the Retreat

Reconnect. Reclaim.
Design.

A transformational retreat experience designed to help women reconnect to who they are, reclaim their voice, and design a life aligned with purpose, authenticity, joy, and courageous leadership.

Grounded in the principles of Archetypes and Superpowers, this experience blends deep reflection, transformational coaching, authentic sisterhood, and the power of nutrition to thrive — helping women move from surviving to intentionally thriving.

You will leave reconnected to yourself, clear on your vision, empowered by your gifts, and equipped with practical tools to design your next chapter — intentionally.

Soul Sister Retreat

This is not a vacation. This is a reset.
A return to yourself — and a design studio for the life you were meant to live.

What We Offer

Six Pillars of
Renewal

🍋

Nutrition for Well-Being

Daily nutrition-for-wellbeing protocols — lemon water, celery juice, heavy metal detox smoothies — to heal the liver, harness antioxidants and amino acids, and activate your body's natural anti-aging systems. You'll also learn how to calm your nervous system and repair your adrenals with food — giving your body the fuel it needs to regulate stress, restore energy, and truly thrive.

🧘

Nervous System Repair

Yoga, breathwork, and mindfulness practices designed to lower adrenaline, calm the nervous system, and teach you how to return to the present moment — even in the chaos of daily life.

⛰️

Mindful Hiking

Electric bike rides into the heart of Zion National Park — wind in your hair, towering canyon walls hugging your soul, the sheer scale of it all cracking something open inside you. Then we lace up and hike, letting nature do what it does best: strip away the noise and bring us back to who we truly are at our deep core — and how we want to show up in the world.

🔮

Archetypes & Superpowers

Identify your core strengths through a pre-retreat archetype assessment, then deepen that self-knowledge during the retreat so you can lead with your superpower, influence with authenticity, and step fully into who you are becoming. We'll be playful in nature — letting the landscape invite what is wanting to arise from within.

🌅

Design Your Next Chapter

Your life does not happen by accident — it is designed through intention. Through future self visualization, dream design workshops, and clarity statement exercises, you will move from drifting to designing, from playing small to expanding possibility, and leave with a strategic vision for the life you truly want to create.

📖

The Work & Inner Inquiry

Guided exercises to dissolve limiting beliefs, overcome fears, and stop the chaos of the mind — so you can meet life from a place of groundedness, courageous dreaming, and intentional living.

The Biological Blueprint

Four pillars of
radical renewal

Set inside the cathedral walls of Zion National Park, Utah — where ancient sandstone and the Virgin River become your classroom.

01 — Electric Bikes, Yoga & Zion Trails

Movement

Glide through Zion's canyon roads on electric bikes each morning, then ground yourself with yoga amid the ancient red rock. Each trail is a moving meditation — your nervous system recalibrates mile by mile.

Fresh turmeric root and liver-supporting superfoods in natural light
02 — Liver-First Nutrition

Nourishment

Every meal offers a beautiful selection of phytochemical-rich botanicals, leafy greens, and ancestral superfoods that cleanse and restore your body's golden engine. You're invited to explore the foods that resonate with you — there's no pressure, only nourishment. A thriving liver is nature's ultimate anti-aging protocol: clearer skin, balanced hormones, boundless energy, and a body that regenerates from the inside out.

Discovery

Through guided journaling on the trail, archetype mapping, and strength profiling, you'll uncover who you truly are — and the patterns holding you back. Leave with a living growth blueprint.

Expression

In a guided painting art project set against Zion's canyon walls, you will translate your archetypes, values, and vision onto canvas. No artistic experience needed — only the willingness to see yourself clearly. Your finished painting becomes a living portrait of who you are and how you choose to show up in the world.

Healing with Food

Align with the Life
You Want to Live

These are tools, not rules. Every protocol below is completely optional — you are invited to explore what resonates and leave what doesn't. Food is one of the most powerful forces we have for finding the energy to live the life we truly want. The retreat meets you exactly where you are.

Lemon Water — first thing

16 oz of lemon water (cold or warm, not hot) awakens the liver and digestive system before anything else touches your body.

Straight Celery Juice

16 oz of pure celery juice — the most powerful liver-healing tonic in the Medical Medium protocol.

Heavy Metal Detox Smoothie

Wild blueberries, spirulina, barley grass juice powder, Atlantic dulse, cilantro. Draws heavy metals out of organs and tissues.

Low-Fat Until Dinner

Fruits, leafy greens, and vegetables through the day give your liver the space to heal. Fats return at dinner only.

Antioxidants, Amino Acids & Glucose

Learn to harness the specific nutrients your liver, immune system, and adrenals need to truly thrive — from trace minerals to glucose from fruit.

"I came out here having a tremendous amount of limitations I was feeling.

It has been just an incredible experience."
