At the Crossroads

An overnight retreat for women standing between what was and what comes next.

I'm Ready 
A getaway for women looking for the next right thing.

When the life you have known no longer fits, but the path ahead is not yet clear, there is wisdom in pausing at the threshold. Join us for a restorative overnight of ritual, movement, sound, and space to hear what is calling you forward.

Saturday

Welcome to the

Crossroads

Saturday is the descent into the liminal space. It is about stepping out of daily momentum, recognizing the crossroads, and making contact with the truth beneath the noise.

This is the natural home for Hecate as guardian of the threshold: torchlight, boundaries, endings, personal sovereignty, and the courage to stand in uncertainty without rushing to resolve it.

Check-In

11:00-12:00 PM
Settle into your room, explore the property, and enjoy light snacks and refreshments while everyone arrives.

Opening Circle

Connect with the space, name your threshold, and set your intention for your time away from the rest of the world.

Liminal Yoga + 
Grounding Practice

Move what has been held in the body and create space for what wants to be felt.

Hecate Storytelling +
Live Soundscape

Explore the mythology, imagery, and archetypal wisdom of Hecate: the crossroads, keys, torches, descent, boundaries, and sovereignty.

Dinner

Gather over a warm, nourishing meal.

Tea Ritual + Journaling

Reflect on what is ending, what you are ready to release, and what wants more room in your life.

Fire Ceremony

Release what you no longer wish to carry and make space for the self that is emerging.

Sauna, Rest + Integration

Choose what you need: quiet, conversation, sauna, journaling, sleep, or simply a little space to be.

Sunday

The Journey

Ahead

You don’t need a five-year plan or instant transformation. Sunday is about receiving insight after rest, reconnecting to inner authority, and leaving with a gentle but tangible direction.

This is where we shift from the crossroads to moving down the next right path: what support is needed, what boundary protects the emerging self, and what small action restores momentum?

Sunrise Meditation + Gentle Movement

Begin the day in stillness, breath, and embodied attention.

Breakfast + Sound Journey

Receive insight through rest, resonance, and listening beneath the noise.

Next Right Step Workshop

Leave with one truth, one boundary or support you need, and one next right step for the weeks ahead.

Closing circle + Lunch

Gather one final time, share lunch, and return to your life with greater clarity and connection.

  • This event is only for women and non-binary humans. Please feel free to join us at one of our other inclusive experiences and stay tuned for future retreats.
