As women, we often carry the weight of multiple roles and responsibilities, sometimes without a space to exhale or process life’s overwhelming moments.

In this episode, I sit down with Trish, a trauma-informed breathwork coach and Reiki master, and Rebecca, a past retreat participant, to dive into the importance of community for women’s healing and empowerment. 

We discuss how retreats provide the opportunity to reset, reconnect with ourselves, and build supportive relationships with other women. Rebecca shares her experience of attending a retreat during a difficult time in her life and how it helped her regain balance, create lasting connections, and develop practices that continue to support her today.

If you're feeling the need to step away from the chaos and find clarity, this episode offers insights into how you can reclaim your peace through connection and intentional self-care.
