As young girls, Queens and Fairy Tales were woven into the fabric of our lives. As young women, we searched for the Fairy Tale and became invested in the happily ever after. As we mature and grow, many of us find that the Fairy Tale has eluded us and  we are far away from embracing “the crown” and calling ourselves, Queen.  We find ourselves living in a perpetual state of wait/weight and worry.  Our personal stories have shaped us but are not the sum total of us. At the deep center of our being we abide with our queen and know that we wait for no one. We worry no more because we trust ourselves and the world around us.

What if we have been living the real-life fairy tale all along? What if happily ever after exists here and now? What if the Queen within is fully present and all we need to do is recognize her? Freedom awaits as we awaken to our truth and give ourselves permission to live lives of full glory, seated on our personal throne, crown in place and authentically seen at last by ourselves and those around us.

During this retreat weekend we will use art, song, poetry, movement, nature, ritual and much needed time alone to release, renew and reclaim our sovereignty. We will come together as a community of women to witness, support and welcome each woman into her own personal kingdom.
