Hi! Iām Emily. Iām a doula, mother, and womb healing practitioner of 8 years, well versed in the language of supporting women through identity shifts and life transitions with Love, creativity and deep nurturing. As someone who has re-written their life story many times and landed in a place of genuine passion for life, it is my honor to walk with women as they get back in touch with their bodies, their power, and their connection to nature, as these are all the medicines that have helped me along my journey. Iām so excited to welcome you into this container and this land so you can melt away and build yourself back up into who youāre becoming while indulging in all the practices and nurturance this retreat has to offer.

Testimonials
I felt so safe with Emily.
I came out on the other side of my yoni steam feeling held and validated while also feeling a stronger connection to myself, my womb and my heart. Iām sure there are dozens of physical benefits to yoni steaming, but the somatic and emotional healing I received were the most profound for me.

Brittany offers an experience like no other
While sipping on deliciously crafted ancestral cacao, she invites you to tune in to your body and tune out the busy world. Her soothing voice guides you along a visionary journey, while her talents with the sound bowls resonate deep within your body and mind, helping to move stagnant energy along and feel better equipped for the current moment.
