Connection and Community are my "Big Why"….What’s yours?

Dearest Seekers,

As a Spiritual Coach and an Intuitive Guide, I have clients all over the world with whom I connect via Skype, Zoom or telephone - and these sessions are deep and I know my clients experience real shifts and growth as a result. However, I ALSO know from first hand experience, that no matter how beneficial our work together may be, it is intensified and magnified tenfold when we are able to do the work in person. 

This is one reason Sheri and I feel so passionately about creating and sharing sacred retreats. Because, as much as we love our online tribe...and believe that the connections we make are authentic, valuable and meaningful, we also feel that there is a growing disconnect in this ever increasing landscape of technology that we inhabit. A disconnect from our shared humanity - a void that is only filled through real world experiences.... up close and personal - the kind where we dance and laugh and cry with each other. Where we stand next to a stranger in awkward silence on the first day - and hug a life long friend goodbye on the last. 

When we come together with other women who are healing, growing, expanding and evolving — who like us, have consciously chosen to walk a spiritual path as bumpy and challenging as it may be at times — then we are immersed in a different kind of energy....the pure energy of unconditional love and acceptance that comes from being a part of a tribe.

It is here that we find belonging and the kind of no-questions-asked-we've-got-your-back sisterhood that nourishes the soul and lifts the spirit. And, it is here that we are safe to take off our masks and shed the weight of our protective amour. To be vulnerable. To be SEEN. To surrender our resistance to the present moment and release our worries of past and future, and instead, step into full presence in the now of nows. 

And in this state of PRESENCE a powerful alchemy occurs. Instantly and effortlessly. The chains of 3-D bondage fall away and we remember who we really are - infinite, eternal and whole. And in this remembering we are free. 

These moments are sacred. They move us into a profound communion with Source. They open us in unimaginably miraculous ways...clearing out blockages and emotional debris, creating space so that our vessel may be filled with energy and light that illuminate a new path forward. One of courage, strength, resiliency and faith. One of embodied BEING-NESS.

We need connection. We need other people. We need to be felt, seen, heard and touched. We need each other. Not just clicking away on our keyboards or phones, thousands of miles apart…but, next to each other, breathing the same air and feeling the same ocean water on our skin.

And..it is these moments when together we venture in search of the sacred…face to face and side by side - away from home, but at home with ourselves and with each other, that we can finally exhale deeply and rest in the sacred, loving arms of the Divine, of our shared Sisterhood and of our own inner strength.

Love and light,
