The Fall Creative Becoming Retreat
Take Up Creative Space
A soul-nourishing retreat for women who are ready to take up creative space and step into who they are becoming. Through creative self-expression, community, and the courage to be seen.
Oct 15 - 18th 2026 Marmora, Ontario, Canada
Fall Creative Becoming Retreat is a gentle invitation to step out of the roles you’ve been holding and into the fullness of who you are becoming. As the season shifts this retreat offers you a space to do the same. To slow down, to listen, and to reconnect with the creative voice that lives within you. Through intuitive and healing analog art-making, meaningful connection, and moments of quiet reflection, you’ll be guided back to yourself in a way that feels grounding, expansive, and deeply nourishing. This transformational space is curated to help you give yourself permission to explore, to feel, and to take up space in your one big, beautiful and creative life.
This retreat is for BOTH the artist longing to reconnect to creative freedom, and the woman who has possibly never used art as a creative expression before. All are welcome to come explore the deep well of magic, truth and freedom through the art-making and sacred healing practices within a safe and supportive group of women ready to hold and cheer you on. We can't wait to have, and hold you.
Who This Retreat is For...
This retreat is for women who:
-
Feel like they’ve been performing or pleasing for too long
-
Crave creative freedom and want to reconnect with their inner spark
-
Are tired of shrinking and ready to take up space — with paint, with voice, with joy
-
Long to be in, and have a community of like-minded women there to cheer you on. During the retreat and after.
-
Want to slow down, listen to their inner voice and feel more like themselves again.
You do not need to identify as an artist.
If creativity has always felt like something reserved for “other people,” let this be the place where you gently reclaim it as yours.
All you need is an open heart and a willingness to explore. Everything else will meet you there.

My retreats are the definition of sisterhood, magic and being fully seen and held for WHO YOU ARE; AS YOU ARE. You deserve to be held and supported.

Traveling with a group of women you’ve never met can feel intimidating. I get it.
It’s vulnerable. It’s brave. It's an investment (of money, time and energy). I don't take your investment lightly, and I am excited to offer these discovery calls to all of you!
This 15-minute call is a chance for us to connect. I will share a bit about my retreats, what to expect and answer any questions you may have.
No pressure. No sales pitch. Just space for your questions, hesitations, and curiosity.
