Playing A Bigger Game : The Power Of Sisterhood with The Retreat Queens! Part 1 of 2
Send us a Text Message.
What would it take to believe, as long as you were being yourself, you couldn't do it wrong and that you belonged? This was the transformative power of our Woman's Retreat in Mexico.
In today's episode, we weave tales of feminine healing and the power of women's retreat and sacred sisterhood. Our sanctuary of conversation opens its arms to the stories of strength and vulnerability, shared by the women, who have walked the path towards rekindling their inner light alongside us.
Step into our circle and light a candle for your own self-discovery, as we recount the emotional revelations and the deep sense of belonging that blossoms when women support and understand one another.
The heart of our discussion begins with a grounding meditation, heartfelt connections, and the mantra "solutions for situations only," as we navigate the waters of personal reclamation.
We explore the sacred space where saying yes to oneself fosters courage to face resistance, and the importance of collective integrity shines bright. Together, we affirm the journey of integrating profound experiences into our everyday lives, cherishing the small steps and daily rituals that cement our growth.

Establishing Safety In Sobriety
Send us a Text Message.
Today's epidote is crucial for your success in sobriety and beyond. It is the starting point you must establish for all new endeavors: establishing a sense safety and authenticity.
- Safety in the Known: Despite knowing alcohol isn't serving us, we often return to it because of the safety and familiarity it provides.
- Establishing New Safety: To move beyond alcohol, we must unpack our self-concept around it and create a sense of safety from a place of neutrality.
- The Need for Belonging: True belonging comes from being accepted for who we are, not from conforming to external expectations.
- Authentic Expression: The journey towards authenticity involves questioning the conformity we've agreed to and building evidence for our authentic selves.
- Empowerment Through Safety: Establishing safety within ourselves allows for empowerment and confidence, enabling us to navigate life's challenges without relying on alcohol.
