The Experience | Rooted in Light
a soulful retreat designed for the creatives who need to be poured into.
For the ones craving inspiration, grounding, and honestly, a warm hug.
A space to rest, to feel nourished, and to reconnect with your fire so you can step into the next season feeling rooted, inspired, and lit from within.
Leave feeling grounded.
Seen.
With a spark gently reignited, and a new light through which to see your work and yourself.
Location - Mother Lion Bay View
❋ IGNITION — Remembering the SparkWe begin by creating light with our own hands. During a candle-making workshop led by Katie from Big White Yeti, you’ll pour intention into two candles— one to take home as a reminder of the spark you carry, and one to gift to someone who could use a little extra light in their life.
❋ NOURISH — Grounding the SoulWe will tend to our soul through a tea ceremony and custom blending, led by Daniela from Growing up Rooted. You are invited to slow down and listen inward to your body, heart, and the season you’re in.
❋ EXPANSION — Play, Expression + VisionCreativity awakens through embodied storytelling.
The styled shoots invite movement, intimacy, laughter, and connection…
a steamy couple and a playful family, each reflecting a different expression of light.
❋ INTEGRATION — Rest + Carrying It HomeThe day closes with nourishment and warmth,
food, meditation, and optional soaking or sauna,
allowing everything experienced to settle into the body.
Rooted. Seen. Lit from within.
