"You're Meant for More" Cottage Retreat for Women

A 4-day, 3-night journey for women ready to rise to their calling

You’ve mastered the art of showing up and succeeding. You’re polished, prepared, and impressively productive. And yet, when the noise quiets and the world gives you a moment to breathe, a whisper keeps nudging at you:

 

“You’re meant for more.”

 

More what? You’ve asked yourself. What does that more look like? How do I get there? These lingering questions, though asked many times, continue to evade clarity.

 

If you feel like you are walking on a solitary path with no one to turn to, take solace in knowing you are not alone. We see you, we hear you, and we’re with you. So, what’s standing in the way of your “more”?

First, there’s a subconscious fear - of change, of growth, and of letting go. And then, there are the stories and patterns from your past that keep you stuck, trying to protect you even though they no longer serve you.

 

This lakeside retreat, nestled among the trees and birdsong in the healing embrace of nature, will help you uncover what is holding you back, so you can begin to envision what your “more” could look like.

 

All the while, you’ll be wrapped in the quiet luxury of a stunning designer cottage, where every meal and every detail is lovingly taken care of for you.

 

This experience isn’t about handing you the answers. It’s about reconnecting you with your own inner compass, and equipping you with the tools to move through fear with power and grace.

 

Work with Keka and Jenn to unravel the mental loops and old narratives silently keeping you stuck.  And begin to discover the story you were always meant to live.

If you’re ready to trust, to go deep, and get a little uncomfortable, (yes, there may be some tears) our door is open.

 

Your seat is waiting.

Your “more” is calling.

Rise up to meet it.
