the journey inward

I am grateful for the thoughtfully planned and varied opportunities to spend time in self-reflection, be present in the moment, and connect with others.

Infused with kindness, comfort, and support, the retreat was a safe place for me to experience deep emotions, wherever they took me.

Being in such a compelling landscape, with an incredibly gifted teacher, and in the company of compassionate others moved me in unexpected ways.

This experience was so meaningful in so many profound ways, that continue to reveal themselves a week later.

Deep silence and actually having nothing to do allowed me to be with myself in a way I never have before. The land is so special and felt so supportive.

And Kim is such a natural group leader who oozes with love, calm, genuine non-judgment, and acceptance. One of the great memories of my life <3

I left the retreat renewed and dedicated to creating more space in my life without outside input, more time to listen inside. I learned a lot about meditation that I can use in my daily life.

All in all, it was a wonderful way to unplug, cleanse the body, mind and soul. I am different now!

Kim made us feel so welcome and created a safe space to let the unwinding process happen. The food was incredible!!!!!!!

I absolutely loved the time to be silent. Without distractions, I was truly able to relax my mind, journal, draw, and sit with nature. Exactly what my mind and body needed.

The Journey Inward was truly that - and in a way I deeply needed. If you are seeking an opportunity to reset or ground, this is it. You will be cared for and supported.

It's a perfect experience to reset your nervous system and reconnect yourself back to the power of nature and what it can hold for you.

Kim's layered experience as a yoga teacher, therapist and a curious human comes through in her ability to hold space and guide you towards your inner self in a safe and accessible way.

I walked away with the ability to find my own voice again.

I've gone on this retreat for the past two years, and can confidently say that I intend to come to the next one (and if life allows it, the one after that, and after that, and so on!).

There is something magical that happens when like-minded women come together in a quiet, natural landscape. The land is so beautiful, it can be overwhelming. And Kim holds space in the most incredibly genuine and kind way: she wears the hats of wise teacher, trusted guide, and goofy best friend all at once.

Much like last year, I'm coming home with a full cup and a deeper knowing of myself.

The retreat challenged a few of my comfort zones, in a good way. I feel less fearful about trying new experiences.

Kim is an expert and thoughtful retreat facilitator with all details, both big and small.

I’ve been on other retreats to different places and I felt this one had enough of a schedule to help us all feel connected and grounded, while still allowing for down time. I plan to return!

This was a wonderful experience in a magical desert oasis.

The accommodations are charmingly rustic and Kim provides just the right amount of gentle guidance leaving plenty of room for self-reflection.

If you’re struggling with the daily grind, feel lost and/or just need a bit of a reset, I highly recommend this retreat.

I've participated in the Journey Inward for three years and discover something new within me each time.

Kim is a gifted facilitator who creates a safe space to prioritize yourself and be open to what emerges. I highly recommend this special experience.

This retreat is THE retreat for women that enjoy being outside, disconnected from the buzz of life (there will be buzzing, but not from phones, it will be from bees!), and want to recenter themselves with the support of nourishing food, guided reflective activities, and surrounded by other inspiring women.

The setting is like nothing else, the food will have your body settled, and Kim is an extremely open/non-judgmental facilitator allowing you to open your heart and body to spaciousness that is your spirit's nature!

At the time of learning about this retreat, I had recently come to terms with my depression that I have been keeping at bay for so long that my body wouldn’t let me hide it anymore. I came in desperation; needing to find something, anything within myself that would help create the smallest amount of peace I could hold onto each day back home.

I was given this gift by day 2. The agony I have been feeling so heavily, was lifted off of my heart and I could see the light again.

This retreat is so lovingly designed by Kim, it is a blessing to have participated in this. I cannot wait to see what is discovered within in the ones ahead.

This was my second time and it was an even better experience than the first. I enjoyed bonding with new people and healing in silence and contemplation.

I want to do it again!

—Marjorie, 2025 Participant

This is my second time and I cannot wait to make my reservation for the third.

The first time was life changing and this second time, I was able to go deeper within myself easier as the property, schedule, food, flow, was experienced before. There were no anxieties of unknown as far as physical or logistical.

It was the reset I needed to remind myself of what is available inside me at all times. It was a rediscovery and I am forever grateful for Kim’s thoughtful process and effort into providing an experience where this discovery is done with me, by me, and for the love of me.

—Anna, 2026 Participant

The setting and community was magical.

You are an incredible guide and resource as retreat leader. I loved the practices and tools you taught us plus appreciated having some unscripted like the afternoon of art.

Amazing experience. Thank you.
