Lady Gaga has serenaded us about one million reasons to walk away - and needing just one reason to stay. When it comes to investing the time, money & energy necessary to attend a retreat, often we easily find one million reasons to say no — but what if you need just one reason to go?

What if YOU are the reason?

My cohost Allison and I have created Flourish: A Retreat. We will be in Mexico holding a container of rest, intention, and love from 4/16-4/20/26. For 4 days and nights you get to fall deeply in love with you.

The jungle is calling. Say yes. Lean in.

I’ll post a link to a video where you can get to know Allison and I in the comments, along with a link to all the details. If this might resonate with anyone you know, please share it. A few spots remain - doors close 2/28.

Who Are These Women?

Before you say yes to four days in the jungle with us, you probably want to know: who are these women? Allison and I sat down to answer that question. We interviewed each other to find out why we do this work, what lights each of us up… which inevitably led to laughter and tears. Grab a cup of coffee and join us!

“This sounds incredible — I want to come, but..."

"I'm too busy right now."

"Work needs me."

"My kids need me."

"I can't afford to step away for four days."

"What if something happens while I'm gone?"

"I'll come next year when things calm down."

And here's what I want to say to you, with love and directness: Things won't calm down next year. They never do.

The busyness isn't going to magically resolve itself. In fact, it’s self-perpetuating – work will always need you; your kids will always need you. There will always be a very good reason to say no.

The question isn't whether you can take four days for yourself. The question is: What message are you sending by refusing to?

When you say, "I can't take time for myself," what you're really saying is:
- Everyone else's needs matter more than mine
- I'm only valuable when I'm productive or taking care of others
- Rest is something I have to earn, not something I deserve
- My well-being is a luxury, not a necessity

Do you really want to model self-sacrifice? Because they’re all watching: your kids, your coworkers, your partner. Do you want them to believe that’s what relationships require?

Modeling self-care might be counter-cultural, but it’s much sweeter. It would show them: this is what you deserve, too; you’re worth investing in. And when you come back, they feel the benefit of a refreshed version of you.

One of last year's participants said: "It set an example. My kids saw me take time for myself and come back better for it. It was challenging to get myself to do it, but it was so worth it, I wondered why I had been so reluctant.”

"But what if I'm not ready?"

The retreat isn't about having your life together before you arrive. It's about giving yourself the space to come back together while you're there.

The question isn’t are you ready. It’s, “Does it resonate? Does your body light up when you see the video or photos? Do you swoon a little when you read about it?”

Your mind can come up with a thousand reasons to say no. But is your body saying yes?

"But what if I can't afford it?"

Yes, this is absolutely an investment.

But what's the cost of not coming? What is the cost of continuing to run on fumes, of denying yourself something so good and nourishing for you?

And what would it be worth to come home to yourself – to be deeply rested, nourished, reset, and to have a touchstone experience you can return to for years?

Only you can answer that. But I can tell you: almost every person who came last year – who left kids and jobs and partners behind for four days – is coming back.

What happens when you drop the shields of busy-ness and “unready”-ness and the belief that it’s “selfish” to go?

You may notice that it’s simply uncomfortable to do something different. Discomfort can throw up all kinds of real-seeming barriers!

But do you want it deciding for you?

If not, let’s talk! Schedule a call with Allison or me, and we’ll walk through it together. We can help you decide from a place of clarity.

The Flourish Retreat is April 16-20, and registration closes February 28.
Check the webpage (in the comments) to see which accommodations are still available (it looks like the master suite and two of the villas are sold out).

What’s calling to you?

Lean in.

It’s time to lean in.

What have you been pursuing – with so much intention, with so much devotion, with so much pain and struggle – only for fulfillment to feel further away?

This is your invitation to stop – to stop pursuing it out there and start finding it in here, inside you, where it’s always been.

This is an invitation to the most important love story of your life: the one where you fall deeply, truly, and completely in love with you.

You’re the one you’ve been waiting for. The only one who can give this to you is you. But you don’t have to do it alone.

We, your guides, are not only coaches. We are doulas: skilled and experienced space-holders for transformation, unafraid of pain, unbothered by mess, calm in any storm. We welcome it all.

The jungle, too, is calling. Not as an escape, but as a mirror—wild, untamed, whole.

Join us.

When a birth doula and a death doula collaborate - the result is an invitation to step fully into the space between birth and death. How are you living your one wild and precious life?

I am delighted to invite you to fall deeply in love with you.

Andrea Gibson has been dying out loud for a very long time. This is just one of their beautiful poems. It’s so achingly beautiful - and so much more tender and poignant knowing they are no longer on this earth in a living human form. I believe them — that they are more here now than ever before. So many will grieve the loss of their words. And so many more will know Andrea after death because of all the words they left behind.

For quite awhile now, I’ve felt called to offer the products I use and love to all of you. And it’s finally happening.

I promise to never offer anything that I haven’t used & abused. Nothing you see here will be anything less than adored and absolutely freaking loved.

I fell in love with Lunya products a couple of years ago. They are a splurge, no doubt — and they are worth it! The fabric is divine, the company is stellar to work with — and you can live in their pieces even when you’re not sleeping.

A just placed a big order or my favorites from their shop - and can’t wait to offer them to you.

If you’ve been watching their offerings and have something you’d like me to find or hold for you — please let me know. Sneak peeks of some of what’s coming below!!

xoxo,
Jenni
