ONLY 3 SPOTS REMAINING FOR THIS INTIMATE EXPERIENCE

“In one word - TRANSFORMATIONAL. It would be difficult for me to attend another retreat now because of how great this experience was.” ~ Margaret

A soulful autumn retreat with movement, nature, and meaningful connection.

From intimate group circles and immersive workshops, to hiking Old Baldy, and dining in a private wine cellar - this autumn retreat is your sacred pause. A weekend to let go, unhook from urgency, and return to your deeper rhythm so you can choose what’s next with intention.

“I felt supported and free to be my true-self. The retreat helped me to bring more clarity and understanding of myself, listening to other women truly inspired me! The energy of space was very supportive and playful.” ~ Katia

Your Autumn Reset

This retreat is your invitation to slow down, breathe deep, and honour the turning of the season - clear, connected, and grounded from within.

Fall invites a gentler rhythm, a time to gather yourself after the fullness of summer and prepare for the months ahead with intention.

Let us guide you into this new season with ease and clarity, so you return home nourished, inspired, and rooted in what matters most.

You’ll release what no longer serves (in many simple, yet profound layers), creating space for what you truly want to feel, do, and embody this season. Whether you’re calling in more rest, courage, creativity, or joy - this weekend is about aligning with your inner rhythm and choosing what’s next with care.

It’s not just a weekend away. It’s a turning point. 🍂

This intimate retreat has been curated for a group of 6 women.

“Co-hosting our first retreat together in June was pure alignment; seamless collaboration, shared vision, and so much love and respect for one another’s gifts. It was clear we had to offer another. This fall, we can’t wait to welcome you into that same spirit of connection, care, and joy at our Fall Retreat.”

~ Allison + Michelle

I felt calm and relaxed.

I enjoyed having time to reflect with my journal and sharing in the circle.

~ Connie

“I also loved how both facilitators participated along with us and we got to know them both. Allison has such good intuition about people and really listens. Michelle truly has a passion for what she does and her movement sessions were excellent.”

~ Margaret

“The pace of the retreat was perfect. The location, house, activities and food choices were amazing (quality exceeded my expectations). This retreat should become a regular offering from Allison & Michelle!”
