Maybe you don’t need to push harder.
Perhaps your load could be more sustainable.
ODYC retreats are designed for women who are capable,
high-functioning, and quietly done with carrying it all.
The emotional load, the default responsibility,
and the pressure to be perfect, no matter the occasion.
This is where the pressure comes off,
and your system remembers how to breathe again.
No performance. No more pushing past capacity.
Your life is calling ...
But first, maybe you need some help remembering who you are.
You might be carrying more than you realize
You’re competent. Capable. Used to handling things.
But quietly, you may recognize yourself here:
• You’re tired in a way sleep doesn’t fully fix
• Your mind rarely powers down; you try to relax, but you don't remember what that feels like
• You carry a lot, and most people have no idea how much
• You keep telling yourself you'll be fine once you get through your to do list, but it never seems to end
• You function well on the outside, but inside, you feel a little empty
• You have a full, beautiful life with so much to be grateful for, but you find yourself feeling increasingly irritable and restless
If even one of these made you pause, your system may be asking for more support than it’s been getting lately.
This is not a your typical vacation.
It’s a moment to reclaim the woman you remember.
It's where high capacity women can finally exhale
ODYC retreats are immersive, small cohort experiences held in Canada, Bahamas and OBX, NC and are designed for women who are strong, capable, and quietly depleted.
This is where we slow the pace down enough for your nervous system to recalibrate.
Where insight integrates instead of stacking.
Where you’re supported in stepping out of performance and back into alignment.
Each location carries its own atmosphere, but the structure remains consistent:
• nervous system downregulation first
• experiential processes rooted in the bSmitten framework
• restorative movement and integration
• local, seasonally aligned nutrition that deeply nourishes
• spacious rest, time for play, and FLOW
• thoughtful, psychologically safe group containers
Nothing frantic.
Nothing performative.
Nothing you have to prove.
You don’t come here to become someone new.
You come here to remember who you were before life asked too much of you.
A day inside an ODYC retreat
NERVOUS SYSTEM
SETTLING
Guided practices that help your body come out of high alert and into steadiness.
RESTORATIVE
MOVEMENT
Yin style movement designed to soften holding patterns and support integration.
EXPERIENTIAL
INTEGRATION
Structured, facilitated processes. Insight that lands in the body, not just the intellect.
SPACIOUS
DOWNTIME
Unstructured time to walk, journal, swim, play, or simply do nothing without guilt.
SAFE
CONVERSATIONS
Small group containers with clear boundaries. Sharing is always invitational, never required.
INTENTIONAL
PACING
Thoughtfully designed days that prevent overwhelm and protect your nervous system capacity.
This is for you if:
This retreat is especially supportive for women who:
• are highly capable but internally over it
• carry a lot of responsibility and rarely feel fully at ease
• feel wired and tired at the same time
• have done insight work but still feel braced in their body
• find themselves saying, “I know what to do, I just can’t seem to get it all done.”
• are ready for depth, but not intensity overload
You are the woman everyone relies on.
You're highly capable and deeply responsible.
The issue is rarely capacity.
It’s the unrealistic expectations and relentless pressure you’ve been carrying for years.
What women notice after the retreat
• their nervous system settles more quickly when stress rises
• their internal signals become clearer about what is and isn't theirs to carry
• they have more capacity without pushing harder; life flows
• a sense of purpose and groundedness
• a felt sense of steadiness that lasts beyond the retreat
Sometimes the nervous system needs distance before it can reset.
It's hard to recalibrate in the middle of the same pace, the same pressure, and the same constant demands. Stepping out of the noise allows your body to remember what real rest and play actually feel like.
From that steadier place, life becomes much more sustainable.
You return home with a lived sense of what being regulated feels like in your body, along with practical tools that support gentle reintegration into your real life.
This is not about becoming someone new.
It is about your system finally having the support it has been missing.
Investment Overview
I keep our retreats intentionally small and high touch.
Here is how the investment is structured so you can plan accordingly.
ODYC retreats are priced in two parts.
Your retreat experience fee is consistent across locations and reflects the depth of facilitation, group size, and level of support provided. It typically runs $1000 per person for a 5-night retreat.
Accommodation and venue costs vary depending on the retreat location, length of stay, and room selection. Once you arrive, everything is taken care of. Your retreat investment includes accommodations, meals, snacks, beverages, and all ODYC programming.
Participants arrange their own travel to and from the retreat location so they can choose the timing and routing that best fits their lives.
Most women find this structure allows them to choose the environment that best fits their season while maintaining a consistent ODYC experience.
Full pricing details are always shared before any commitment is required.
No surprises.
And Payment plans are always available for those who prefer to spread the investment over time.
My Invitation:
ODYC retreats are intentionally kept small and paced with care.
Rather than posting fixed dates far in advance, we build each retreat once a small group of aligned women is ready. This allows us to:
• keep the group size intimate
• match timing that works for participants
• maintain the calm, high-touch experience this work requires
When the waitlist reaches a small ready group, you’ll receive a private invitation with proposed dates and full details. You can then decide if the timing feels right for you.
No pressure. No obligation.
