Rennes-le-Chateau, May 2025

I write this post with deep gratitude. Something amazing happens when we open our hearts to the mysteries of Rennes-le-Chateau and surrounding region. We unlock new discoveries.

It’s not always a linear path. In fact, it’s often winding, trippy, and quite surprising. So surprising, in fact, that you learn to become accustomed to the new and magical.

You soften your body, you discern, you explore with childlike curiosity because you know that you’re supported and held with love.

It takes courage to walk this path, knowing that it will shake old belief systems and unlatch the inner gate of knowing and understanding. Knowing that the stories you’ve been told will be stripped bare as you re-learn what true mastery is.

You return to your people and home with new eyes and new gifts. More importantly, you realize how much power you truly hold over your reality.

You recognize the spark of divinity within you. You gather that flame in your heart and fan it with forgiveness, loving whispers, connection, and trust.

You realize that you need no gurus, as you are your own guru.

You find support in the loving acceptance of likeminded souls who hold you as you embark on your journey of self-discovery.

You are never the same.

And so, it is with immense and humble gratitude that I recognize the inner work and joy of the beautiful women who trusted their inner knowing and followed their hearts all the way to the base of the Pyrenees. Thank you for your courage, laughter, and brilliance.

Thank you for walking beside us.

Thank you to Mary Clare Wojcik for your partnership and valued advice, particularly during the planning process. What a journey it’s been! And Angelique Peigne, your home and heart are a sanctuary. You embraced us, guided us, and loved us fiercely with the vibrant flame of your expansive heart. You helped to unveil the magic in each one of us.

You truly are an angel my friend.

Looking forward to the next Rennes-le-Chateau retreat!
