Rise Gathering (Weekend Retreat)

I am thrilled to be part of this year’s Rise Weekend Getaway. I will be offering multiple sessions on contemplative creativity. We will do creative meditations down by the lake, create space and time to breathe, reflect and dream. This is an amazing weekend filled with people who are committed to joyful, authentic living. I would LOVE to see you there!

WEEKEND GETAWAY

September 29 - October 1, 2023

Trails End Camp, Pocono Mountains, PA



Mission

A safe and brave space for women to reconnect with themselves, nature and a community of diverse women.



What’s the Weekend Getaway like?

A loving environment that encourages exploration and expression through a schedule of activities and opportunities. Women choose their own workshops and partake in whatever classes and other activities they desire. All experiences at the Weekend Getaway are engaging and interactive and the women receive so much from sharing their stories with and listening to one another.



What are the accommodations like?

The Weekend Getaway is held at a quality camp facility on 400+ acres. There are multiple lodging options ranging from community cabins shared with others to private lakeside cottages. Accommodations are comfortable with heating for the brisk fall nights.



Who attends the Weekend Getaway?

This unique community of women is a coming together of women of all ages and life stages. Young women from 15 all the way to women in their early eighties attend the experience. Most women are between ages 30-60 with a diverse range of backgrounds.



Why does someone attend the Weekend Getaway?

Women search for something like the Weekend Getaway, when they are going through a time of change in their lives and seek the support of others to uplift them and ease their fears. The themes that we mostly hear that drive women are trouble in their marriage or relationship, wanting to change careers, losing themselves to motherhood, desiring something more out of life as they enter a new chapter, and so on.
