ONLY 3 SPOTS LEFT! ใ€ฐ๏ธ

Imagine thisโ€ฆ

You arrive in Sedona, the air warm and laced with sacred stillness.
Red rocks rise around you like ancient guardians, holding space for the woman youโ€™re becoming.
You breathe deeper than you have in months.

You're greeted with open arms and soul-deep smiles.
The energy feels familiarโ€”like youโ€™ve finally landed where you were always meant to be.

You drop your bags, your roles, your expectationsโ€ฆ and sink into presence.
Bare feet on the earth.
Heart cracked open.
Laughter echoing across the canyon.

You move your body to the rhythm of your truth.
You cry. You release. You remember.
You sip warm cacao beneath the stars, sing with your sisters, and dance like no one's watching (but we all areโ€”and we're cheering you on).
You feel heldโ€”in your fullness, in your softness, in your power.

Each breath, each moment, each ceremony calls you closerโ€ฆ
Closer to your higher self.
Closer to the woman you came here to be.

And when you leave, you're not the same.
You're clearer. Softer. Wilder.
Rooted in your knowing.
Radiant in your truth.
Alive in every sense of the word.

This is the energy the energy of the Higher Self Retreatโ€ฆ

Itโ€™s hard to put into words the impact that the higher self retreat had on me. I was nervous going in but was greeted by the most amazing group of women and we were all there for the same reason.

We were there to remember the parts of ourselves we had forgotten, to grow and to learn from each other. 

Alyssa guided us through those days with grace and love. The safety I felt on this retreat was like nothing Iโ€™d ever experienced. We cried, we laughed, we danced. Each moment was so special. When I say this retreat changed my life I mean it whole heartedly.

Trust yourself, take the leap and join Alyssa on this journey, I promise you will not regret it.

This Retreat Is for you ifโ€ฆ

You know youโ€™re on the edge of something powerfulโ€ฆ
You can feel the shift coming โ€” you just needs space to breathe, to remember, to rise.

๐ŸŒฟ Youโ€™re a deep feeler โ€” someone who feels life intensely and wants to stop apologizing for it. Youโ€™ve done healing work, but youโ€™re ready for something more embodied, more real, more sacred.

๐Ÿ”ฅ Youโ€™re craving connection โ€” not surface-level small talk, but real, heart-centered sisterhood. You want to be witnessed. You want to be met. You want to remember how powerful it is to be surrounded by women who see you.

๐ŸŒ€ Youโ€™re at a crossroads โ€” maybe you're stepping into a new season, letting go of an old identity, or hearing the whisper that itโ€™s time to finally become herโ€”the version of you youโ€™ve been visioning but havenโ€™t fully stepped into yet.

๐Ÿ’ƒ Youโ€™re ready to reconnect with your body โ€” not to โ€œfixโ€ it, but to feel it. To soften into it. To move with it. To dance, to scream, to rest, to let it speak to you again.

๐ŸŒ™ You crave the sacred โ€” ritual, ceremony, ancient practices that awaken something within. You want to unplug from the chaos of the outside world and drop into your inner worldโ€”your wisdom, your womb, your wild.

๐Ÿ‘‘ You want more โ€” not in a material way, but in a soul way. More ease. More joy. More aliveness. More you.

Itโ€™s for the woman whoโ€ฆ

โœจ Is ready to meet her higher self โ€” and stay with her
โœจ Wants to feel safe to cry, to laugh, to twerk, to roar
โœจ Feels like sheโ€™s been holding everyone and is finally ready to be held
โœจ Is done trying to โ€œdoโ€ her healing alone
โœจ Knows her next evolution requires community, ceremony, and surrender

If something in your body whispered yes while reading thisโ€ฆ
Sheโ€™s already waiting for you.

โ™ก TESTIMONIALS

  • โ€œAttending Alyssaโ€™s womenโ€™s retreat came at a pivotal time in my life, amidst one of the biggest shifts Iโ€™ve ever experienced. 

    During this retreat, I felt profoundly safe to share, to be held, to be seen, and supported in ways my soul deeply needed. 

    From the somatic embodiment practices to the connection workshops and sacred stillness, every moment was intentional and healing. 

    The nourishing sisterhood allowed me to soften, to receive, and to begin mending long-held sister wounds. 

    Alyssa held such a beautifully empowering space with grace and presence. 

    Iโ€™m deeply grateful to have been part of this sacred journeyโ€” and I absolutely

     cannot wait to attend another one of her retreatsโค๏ธโ€๐Ÿ”ฅโ€ -Stephanie Bard

  • โ€œWhen I arrived at the Sedona Retreat, I was tiredโ€”mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. I had been pouring myself into everyone around meโ€”serving, giving, helpingโ€”yet I felt depleted and alone in my journey. I didnโ€™t realize how much I needed this space until I stepped into it.

    From the moment I arrived, I was embracedโ€”literally and emotionally. I was greeted with warm hugs, heartfelt smiles, and intentional giftsโ€”a bracelet, an eye mask, a beautiful notebook and pen, and even a rose. These werenโ€™t just things; they were symbols of the love and care woven into every moment of the retreat.

    Throughout the weekend, I felt truly seen and heard. I was surrounded by women who welcomed me exactly as I was. The retreat created space to pause, reflect, and just be. From meditations and sound baths to deep journaling and soulful conversations, every experience invited me to ask myself, โ€œAm I OK? What do I really need?โ€

    For the first time in a long while, I was able to tune into my body and spirit. I began to feel emotions I had been running past on autopilot. I connected to the parts of me I had been neglectingโ€”the parts that craved grounding, clarity, and joy.

    By the end of the retreat, something within me had shifted. I was able to release fear and welcome a sense of freedom I hadnโ€™t felt in a while. I left with a renewed commitment to myselfโ€”inviting more play, fun, and deep joy into my everyday life.

    This retreat wasnโ€™t just a getaway. It was a return to myself.โ€ -Jazzael Taylor

  • โ€œAttending the Sedona retreat was nothing short of transformative. From the moment I arrived at the most peaceful retreat house, I felt safe. With our first opener, I immediately knew how seen and deeply held I was. Alyssa, who hosted the space, created an environment that invited softness, vulnerability, and connection.

    Through somatic movement and breathwork, I experienced a true return to selfโ€”learning to regulate my nervous system while surrounded by like-minded women Iโ€™ll truly never forget.

    It was more than a retreatโ€”it was a reclamation. A sacred space to reset and come back to the wild within. Healing became possible through sisterhood, stillness, and soul. I can honestly say I will never forget my time there and how it began my healing journey.

    Since the retreat, Iโ€™ve joined Alyssaโ€™s Higher Self Club, and itโ€™s something I genuinely look forward to each month!โ€ -Lara Carothers

  • โ€œThis experience was truly beautiful โ€” something deeply sacred and soul-nourishing. It was more than just a gathering; it was a return to self, held in the warm embrace of sisterhood. There was space to go inward, to meet parts of yourself that are tender, raw, and real. It was both confronting and breathtaking in the most transformative way. I felt completely safe to explore, to grow, and to simply be โ€” fully present and seen. 10/10, wholeheartedly recommend. Alyssa holds space like no one else โ€” a true, intuitive guide who leads with so much love and wisdom.โ€ -Natasha Suely

Whether you're laughing, crying, twerking, or simply learning to be, her presence invites you to feel it all โ€” and trust that it's all welcome.

Meet Chef Laura

(Your A-List Celebrity, Private Chef)

Chef Laura McClain has been cooking privately since landing in LA almost two decades ago. She specializes in health-supportive cookery with an emphasis on whole foods, alternative diets and goal oriented meal planning.  Fertility, pre-natal and post-partum cooking is her fave because babies and moms are the coolest. Her popup, MONDAYS, where she slings sandwiches and hosts purple pudding parties, has been in residence at butcher shops, theaters, and art studios. She attended The Natural Gourmet Institute for Health and Culinary Arts in NYC.

May you arrive here not as who you think you should be,
but as the truth of who you are โ€” raw, radiant, real.
May the sacred red earth beneath your feet remind you
that you are always held, always supported, always guided.

May your heart feel safe to soften.
May your body feel free to express.
May your soul feel seen โ€” in all its depth, all its beauty, all its becoming.

I pray you laugh louder than you have in years.
That you cry without shame.
That you remember your body is not something to fix,
but a vessel of wisdom, pleasure, and power.

May you feel the warmth of sisterhood like a balm to old wounds.
May you recognize yourself in the eyes of another woman.
And may you finally exhale the breath youโ€™ve been holding for far too long.

You are not broken. You are not behind.
You are exactly where you are meant to be.
And your higher self?
Sheโ€™s not far away. Sheโ€™s been here all along โ€”
patiently waiting for you to remember.

May this retreat awaken whatโ€™s been dormant,
restore whatโ€™s been tired,
and ignite whatโ€™s been calling you forth.

You are magic. You are medicine.
You are the one youโ€™ve been waiting for.

And so it is.

I love you

-Alyssa
