WE ARE SO BACK!
Our 5th annual EQUINOX retreat returns September 19th-23rd after a year of intentional pause—What returns is not the same experience in a new location, but an evolved offering.
This is a gathering for those who know the power of pause. For those called to slow down, shed old skins, and listen.
The Fall Equinox marks the moment of balance —equal light, equal dark.
A portal for reflection, release, and intentional recalibration.
This experience is rooted in afro-indigenous, land based wisdom, and open to all identities who are called to show up with reverence, and an open heart.
The waitlist is officially open —
early access, first invites, and exclusive pricing go to the list first.
