Last Friday I received a last-minute invite to an art show featuring one of my beloved past clients, Lela Shields’ work. 

I ended up reaching out to one of my besties Moni, who’s assisted my programs & circles the past 8 years, and another dearest friend and member of my very first Soulstice Sisterhood circle in 2017, as well as this and last year’s cohort.

Lela was also in that first 2017 circle, as was another incredible woman, an herbalist and writer who was there for the opening – so it was a super sweet reunion of sorts. 

It felt like no time had passed, even though 5 years had breezed by since the 5 of us were in circle or at a retreat together…

But, there we were, supporting our fellow circle sister, feeling close and connected, even though so much time had gone by.

That’s the magic of coming together in circle or retreat, and working on personal and professional growth together vs in isolation. 

And, another new client of mine (who’s also an artist) showed up to support Lela’s art that night as well. :)

As I’m reflecting back on these past 8 years of living on this gem of a property here in Petaluma – and the hundreds of brilliant and badass babes who’ve attended the business & leadership programs, women’s circles and retreats that I’ve had the pleasure and privilege of creating, I’m getting fired up with SOOO much JOY and gratitude for the opportunity and sheer gift of being able to lead in this way…

I continue, to this day, to be BLOWN AWAY by the connections, collaborations, successes, fresh ideas, transformations, wins and celebrations that have happened here and as part of this supportive community.

Soooo much MAGIC has been created here, and I’m grateful for the honor that each of these rad beings have offered me, by entrusting me to serve and support them through my body of work. 

I have one final offering that I’ll be holding on this land (before moving back to my hometown of Quincy, IL) – an EPIC 2-day retreat happening October 12-13 called Rise & Thrive. 

Over the next week and some change I’ll be diving into more detail about what this will entail (think transformative ritual, loads of self-care, limiting belief release work, community connecting, action-oriented business-mapping – and lots of booty shaking!) 

But, if you know you wanna get in on this magic, we’re offering an early bird deal of 150 off the retreat til end of next week.

I soooo hope you can join me for my last hurrah at this incredible Sonoma County property (we just confirmed one of our past clients MC Ladyfinger will be DJing our happy hour dance party on Day 2 – woot woot!) – and can’t wait to vision, celebrate and connect in the flesh with you!
