Palm Desert, California | October 1-4, 2026

A 3-night, 4-day retreat in Palm Desert for nine women who hold it all together… and know there’s more underneath.

There’s a way many women move through their lives that looks steady from the outside. Capable. Even fulfilling.

You show up. You take care of what needs taking care of. You’re there for the people you love.

And quietly, underneath all of it, there’s an awareness that something isn’t fully being heard.

Not dramatic. Not urgent. Just… not the whole story.

You notice it in small moments. A thought that lingers a little longer than usual. A feeling you move past because there isn’t room to stay with it. A sense that something inside you has been asking for your attention for a while now.

Not because anything is wrong. Because something in you is ready to be listened to more closely.

This retreat was created for exactly that moment.

Over three nights and four days together, we step outside the pace, the roles, and the habitual ways of being that keep us moving. Not to change them. Just to pause long enough to notice what’s actually here when we’re not performing any of it.

What You’ll Experience:

Conversation that goes beneath the surface, led by Joree.

A guided morning sound bath meditation and movement to get present and grounded as we enter into the weekend, led by a local practitioner. 

A somatic therapy session with a local practitioner, to help you listen to what your body has been holding. 

A group session with a local astrologer, offering a wider lens on where you are right now. 

Nourishing meals, time in the desert, quiet reflection. 

And unstructured hours where things get to unfold on their own.

Beyond “I’m Fine” Retreat

October 1-4, 2026

What you may leave with:

You won’t leave with a five-step plan or a new identity.
You may leave having said something out loud that you’ve only been holding inside. You may leave trusting yourself a little more clearly. You may leave with a deeper sense of what’s been true for you all along.
If something in you recognizes this, you don’t need to arrive with clarity. You just need the willingness to listen.

What previous journeyers are saying:

I was surprised at what surprised me. I did go with the intention of being present, but I had a huge moment of self-discovery.

I am telling myself that those [old] rules no longer apply. Change the story, my story. I am worthy.

I have been feeling the ripples of the retreat. It was awesome!

Thank you so much for a beautiful experience!

I say YAY for being open to doing the challenge course; the breathing really helped!

I have been in such a clear place since Miraval and am rocking my new business and building it from the ground up! It feels amazing – as I am sure you know from doing it yourself. And I got the kickstart I needed thanks to our weekend away and the tools you gave me. I feel lighter, happier and more determined than EVER. I truly believe it was the burning ritual with the Harvest Moon that did it – it was SO powerful for me. THANK YOU! Xo

I’d love to go next year!

I feel so fortunate to have met you and look forward to more to come!

I’m all ready for retreat #2! I’m all in!

This is exactly what I needed…since having kids I have not given myself this amount of self-care and downtime.
