00:00 / 03:56

Embark on a Sacred Journey Through Africa
 

Experience the transformative power of Africa's Sacred Sites,

from the Thundering Victoria Falls to the

Serene Landscapes of Cape Town

 

After hosting numerous retreats in Egypt, Turkiye, England, Japan and the South of France, I have been called to come Home and host an African retreat. I am South African, I love the beauty, earthiness and diversity of my country, and now it is time for me to share this with you.

Goddess Awakening Retreats are sacred, soul-nourishing journeys designed for women ready to reconnect with their Divine Essence, ignite their inner power, and embrace their authentic purpose. Rooted in feminine wisdom and held in breathtaking destinations, these immersive experiences blend ritual, ceremony, embodiment, and nature to support deep healing, self-love, and transformation. You'll be lovingly guided every step of the way, with everything taken care of—so you can focus on remembering who you truly are. It's not just a retreat; it’s a rite of passage into the magnificent life you were born to live.

I am partnering with Dean Liprini (Sacred Sites Specialist) and Taryn Foley ( NLP Practitioner and Behavioral Science Specialist) on this Alchemical Retreat.  ​
