Soul Journey, Summer Camp Edition: The Sacred Yes
A soulful summer retreat for your untamed, grown-ass self.
THE INVITATION
The Sacred Yes is a 3-day retreat for women who are ready to reclaim the parts of themselves they’ve put on hold for far too long. You’ve spent years showing up for everyone else — this weekend is about showing up for you.
THE VIBE
This is summer camp for your soulful, untamed grown-ass self —where the conversations are deep, the Four Square matches are fierce, the s’mores are sacred, and the awakenings come easy.
THE RECLAMATION
And while we’re at it — it’s time to break the rules you never agreed to in the first place — and hand the baton back to the wild one within.
The one who danced barefoot without worrying who was watching.
The one who dreamed without limitation.
The one who didn’t ask for permission to be joyful, silly, or loud.
This isn’t about healing your inner child because she’s broken.
It’s about letting her lead — because she remembers who you are.
THE YES
Everything we offer is optional.
This is your sacred yes — your journey, your rhythm, your way.
- Feel like journaling under a tree instead of kayak dodgeball? Beautiful.
- Want to nap instead of a soul collage? Perfect.
- Want to skip a meal because your body feels full? Honor that.
- Want to only eat dessert all day because your soul craves delight? Giddy up.
Together, we’ll step away from the noise, the obligations, and the mental load — and into a space designed to nourish your body, quiet your mind, and awaken your spirit.
This is your permission slip to pause.
To listen.
To receive.
To say YES — to whatever you damn well please.
FOR THE WOMAN WHO QUIETLY WHISPERS…
“I love my life, but I miss me.”
Let this be the moment you say yes to the life that’s been waiting for you.

Life Coach, Speaker & Retreat Guide Erin sees you—because she was you. A (mostly) recovered perfectionist and people-pleaser, Erin spent years chasing the image of what a “successful woman” should be—until the world cracked open and so did she. What followed was a sacred unraveling and a bold reclamation. She walked away from a high-powered corporate career, stopped living on autopilot, and began asking the bigger questions: Who am I, really? What do I actually want? And what would it look like to live with more joy, meaning, and presence? Now, as a coach, speaker, and guide for women on…
