“I want you to know how much last year’s (retreat) meant to me, and how much I appreciate you designing such a lovely retreat. I learned a lot and I still reflect on it to this day. It came at a time in my life that I really needed that. Last year was the biggest year of personal growth for me yet and I will continue to cherish (it).”
- Elizabeth from the Spring Equinox Women's Retreat“I thoroughly enjoyed the day retreat that I participated in, led by Karina and Caitlin. I truly didn’t know what to expect, and it was a new thing for me to commit so much of a weekend entirely focused on myself. The environment was warm and welcoming from the start, and I had no trouble getting comfortable with the different sessions, even though every part of the retreat was a new experience for me. I enjoyed sharing with others and learning new things about myself and my body. It was a privilege to be led by these women and be exposed to their confident energy.”
- Alison L. from the Spring Equinox Women's Retreat“I attended a Sacred Rage Ceremony led by Caitlin in December. I was not entirely sure what to expect, but I showed up with an open heart and mind. From the moment I arrived, the space felt intimate, warm, and genuinely inviting. Caitlin guided the ceremony with clear intention and care, creating an environment where I felt comfortable enough to access and express emotions I hadn’t fully released before. There was no pressure, just support, which made it easier to let go in an authentic way. The experience was liberating. I moved through feelings that I had been sitting with for a long time. I felt noticeably lighter, and more at peace within myself by the end. I’m grateful for the experience and for the thoughtful way it was held. I would recommend it to anyone who feels ready to release in a supportive and intentional space.”
— Vanessa E. from the Sacred Rage Ceremony“The journey Caitlin took us through was simultaneously deeply personal and internal, with meditation and journaling- but also external and physical and tactile, with somatic exercises that help you feel, experience, and release all of that emotion. It also creates such connection and community with everyone else there, especially knowing that I was sharing this space with other people who came there for some of the same reasons that I did.”
— Erin M from the Sacred Rage Ceremony“According to Freud, depression is rage turned inwards. You / I / we owe it to ourselves (dare I say, are obligated) to healthily express anger. It can be discomforting, but it's the better hard. Big-hearted and skilled, Caitlin's got you. I felt safe and supported by her and the rest of the group. Get in there, friends. I trust it will be fruitful and that you'll be grateful after.”
