Stop waiting
for the “right time"
to believe in
yourself.
Do you have a quiet nudge that won’t go away?
A dream you’ve been dismissing,
a new direction you’re afraid to take seriously, or a "knowing" that something in your life needs to change?
You’ve planted the seed. You’ve been doing the work. But right now, you’re in the messy middle—that exhausting place where you’re watering something you can’t see yet, trying to stay faithful when nothing looks different on the outside.
This is where most women quit. They call their longing "nothing" and go back to the grind. But your dream isn't nothing. It’s a spark that just needs the right environment to catch fire.
Join us for an evening of Spring Magic, Tending the Flame of your Dreams.
This is a 3-hour sacred ceremony designed for the woman who is tired of holding her breath. On this beautiful Spring evening, we are moving away from "fixing" and toward tending.
What awaits you under the golden sunset:
Mental Clarity: We’ll cut through the noise of your "to-do" list to hear what your intuition is actually saying.
Physical Release: Use your own hands to gather a Spring Flower bouquet. Walk through the fields with mindfulness and ease. Create a beautiful reminder that growth is happening, even when it’s slow.
Collective Strength: Sit in a circle of twenty women who are also in the "messy middle." You’ll leave not just with flowers, but with a collective blessing and the courage to stop dismissing your own light.
Restorative Sound: Lay your burdens down as the sun sets. Let the vibration of singing bowls through the wood floors reset your nervous system and quiet the "not enough" inner critic.
The flame doesn’t need to be a bonfire to be real. It just needs tending.
Are you ready to stop waiting and start tending?
A Seasonal Women’s Retreat
Tending
the Flame
Rooted in Nature, Lit from Within
A Friday evening on a flower farm at sunset.
A circle of twenty women.
Pick a bouquet with your own hands, then gather under string lights for guided meditation, deep journaling, sound healing, and a collective blessing we build together.
This is not a workshop — it's ceremony.
Friday, May 22, 2026 ✿ 6:00 - 9:00pm ✿ McLawland Farms, Charlotte, NC
$159 ✿ Limited to 20 Women
Something is stirring in you.
You already know it.
Maybe it's a dream you keep dismissing. A direction you're afraid to take seriously. A quiet knowing that something is trying to change — but you can't see the full picture yet, so you keep waiting. Keep holding. Keep calling it nothing.
You planted a seed somewhere along the way. A dream. A direction. A knowing. And now you're in the messy middle of tending it — watering something you can't see, trusting a process you can't control, keeping faith when nothing looks different yet.
This is where most women quit.
This retreat is for the woman who refuses to quit her dream.
Beltane is the ancient fire festival of new growth — the moment on the wheel of the year when the spark catches, and things come alive. On a Friday evening at McLawland Farms, a working flower farm on the edge of Charlotte, we'll gather to honor what's emerging. Not force it. Not fix it. Tend it.
You'll walk through fields in golden evening light and pick a bouquet to take home in a ribboned mason jar. You'll sit around tables in a circle under a covered pavilion strung with lights for guided meditation, powerful journaling, and intimate sharing with women who are also in the messy, beautiful middle of becoming. And as the sun sets, you'll lie down for a sound bath — singing bowls resonating through the wood floor while the evening settles around you.
You'll leave carrying flowers,
a collective blessing written by every woman in the circle,
and — maybe — a different relationship with the thing you've been too afraid to tend.
Because the flame doesn't need to be a bonfire to be real. It just needs tending.

Your Evening
The Retreat Flow
✿ Arrive & Receive
Walk onto the farm as the evening softens. A ribboned mason jar is waiting for you with a personal affirmation card tucked inside. Refreshments, an open-air pavilion, string lights beginning to glow. The retreat begins before a word is spoken.
❋ Walk & Gather
An intentional walk through the flower fields in golden hour light. Pick what calls to you — not what looks perfect. Build your bouquet as a practice in trusting what's emerging. This is Beltane embodied.
◌ Settle & Go Inward
Return to the pavilion and gather around the tables. A grounding earth meditation followed by a guided flame visualization. Notice the fire inside you - is it a candle or a bonfire? What does it need?
✦ Write & Discover
Powerful journaling prompts that will surprise you. The kind of questions that make your pen move before your mind can edit. This is where the real work lives.
◎ Share & Be Witnessed
Two intimate partner shares — one playful, one deeper. Every woman is heard by two different people. No advice. No fixing. Just presence. For many, this is the most transformative part.
❂ Bless & Release
Together we build a collective loving-kindness blessing — each woman offering one phrase as a rock passes around the circle. Words emerge that no one planned. This becomes yours to keep.
☽ Rest & Integrate
A singing bowl sound bath as the sun sets and the string lights take over. Flowers beside you, the collective blessing still resonating, the evening wrapping around you. Everything you stirred up settles into your body.

The flame doesn’t need to be a Bonfire to be real, it just needs tending
— The Beltane Invitation
I created this retreat just for you - a woman who is in the messy middle of transformation. I I know you have dreams, and you are working on tending those dreams. Maybe it’s a big life-changing career move, or a move to a new house, a new job or a new relationship.
Maybe you are working so hard to make these new dreams come to life that you have forgotten WHY you wanted this dream!
I know that Deep Self-Tending is necessary to continue to do the hard work of transformation; otherwise, burnout and frustration can take over.
You are not alone. I see you. I am in the same process, the same evolution.
Let’s meet on a flower farm and pick a bouquet together.
Let’s witness each other’s journey and share the excitement and the fear.
What’s the greatest lesson a woman should learn?
That since day one, she’s already had everything she needs within herself.
It’s the world that convinced her she did not.
~ Rupi Kaur
Let’s help each other remember we already have everything we need within ourselves.

Coach ✿ Retreat Facilitator ✿ Sound Healer ✿ Bodywork
I help women who've spent years holding it all together remember what lights them up. Through my coaching practice and seasonal retreats, I create spaces where women can get honest about what's not working, reconnect with what matters, navigate the messy middle of change, and take meaningful action toward a life they're actually excited about. This work weaves together guided meditation, coaching, sound healing, and the wisdom of seasonal rhythms. I believe transformation doesn't have to be loud to be real.
