Who is this for?
we truly believe that all women would benefit from diving deep into these realms AND we run on pure alignment and resonance here (which is why we have an application so we can all feel each other).
There are a lot of people who teach similar things, but no one does it like Stephanie and I (Kendall) we bring a fun and lightness and play, yet depth and stillness. There's a down-to-earth feeling to the spirituality we bring in. There's a purity in the sensual arts here and trauma awareness. Yet this is very deeply play and expansion! We are not for everyone. If you're here, though, there's likely a resonance with us and this space.
People come to this immersion for various reasons... some just feel a yes and don't know why, some want to feel more confident or heal sexual trauma, some want to improve their relationships and sex life, some are here to heal their sisterhood wounds, and some are just deeply devoted to this path of living a ritualistic and sensually awakened life. Women from all walks of life come, from a wide variety of ages and backgrounds.
The retreat center: Finca Mia
Finca Mia sits at the base of Mount Chirripo, the highest peak in Costa Rica and a popular hiking destination.
The farm is tucked in a rural mountain valley where lush jungle foliage climbs steep, green hillsides. Tropical birds sing at dawn & coyote calls echo across the valley at sunset.
Removed from touristy beaches, guests experience a slice of authentic Costa Rican village life in our magical, relaxing corner of the world.

Typically, though, the sooner you register, the longer the payment plan can be.

The Investment
FAQ's
Is this only for women?
This is for womb-carriers/women identified people. If you do not have a physical womb, and are woman identifying and want to come you are absolutely more than welcome and something to be aware of is we will be doing some internal yoni practices. We are absolutely here to support space holding and happy to hop on the phone and chat if you want to feel if it would be a good fit.
What are the travel requirements for Costa Rica?
Currently, you do not need a vaccination or COVID test to get into Costa Rica AND you no longer need to purchase the travel insurance to get in.
Are flights included?
Flights are not included in the investment, but your shuttle from the airport and all accommodations on-site are.
Are there any local discounts?
Those who live in Chirripo/Diamante Valley area can receive a 10% discount off the retreat package.
Ticos (local Costa Ricans) can receive a 20% discount off the retreat package.
For those who live in/very close to the Los Angeles de Rivas neighborhood, if you prefer not to sleep on site there is an option for you to stay at your own home. Please inquire with us what this would look like (only for those who live here). We still highly recommend staying on site if possible.
What if I've never done anything like this before? Is this for me?
Wonderful! If you feel a pull and feel resonance you are welcome. To us it doesn't matter if you've done this, have trained in these arts, have worked with coaches etc. it's more of frequency based resonance for us and what we look for in women coming to this immersion is a high level of self-awareness, agility to take personal responsibility, and some level of being able to self-regulate the nervous system (and we are also there to support this). And excitement! If this is a yes for us all.
Will you be doing one in the future?
The intention is to host this at least once a year if not twice. The next one is tentatively set for June 2023 in Costa Rica. We always encourage if possible to come to the most up and coming because typically something is resonating deep within us now for a reason and we're being called by something. If you feel you really are more in alignment with 2023, you can get on the waitlist by sending through an application below (just note somewhere in the application you are interested in 2023) - you'll be the first to know about release dates, early bird pricing, and payment plans (potential for extended 12 payment plan if you reserve ahead of time to break down the investment more easily).
Do you do any partial scholarships?
We have two partial scholarships this time that are open - go ahead and fill pout an application and then send us an email, as well, letting us know you are intending to apply for the partial scholarship, let us know your current situation and how this might support you. These are intended for those who would other wise not make it, so tune in if that is truly you or if this is an edge you can expand into.
