Reclaim your power & embody your gifts
Friday 6 – Sunday 8 November 2026 · Glastonbury, UK · Non-residential
~ THE DARK GODDESS RETREAT ~
A 3-day immersion for women ready to meet what’s unresolved, let go of the conditioning that has kept them small, and step into their power and their medicine.
“Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life and you will call it fate.”
— Carl G. Jung
Why now
Humanity needs more women standing fully in their power, sharing their gifts. We need women who can model a different way of leading - one that has integrity, that supports life rather than depletes it.
If something in that lands, this is you.
Into the dark, for the light
We spend the first nine months of our lives in darkness. It’s where the seed gestates before it becomes anything at all. Darkness isn’t the opposite of growth - it’s often where growth begins.
The Dark Goddess – such as Kali, Cerridwyn, Persephone, Hecate, Hel, Medusa, Ereshkigal among her many faces - is the primordial feminine force of transformation. She can be blunt and she doesn’t do bypassing but everything she does, she does in service of the highest aspect of Love. Working with her is an initiation into the parts of yourself you’ve learned to avoid, and it’s precisely there that your power has been waiting.
The detailsThis is for you if
You’ve been called to embody your gifts and share your medicine, but keep meeting resistance
You’re ready to go deeper into your own healing, and your healing gifts
You want to strengthen your relationship with the more-than-human and unseen world
You know you’re powerful and want to learn to wield that consciously - for your good, and the highest good of all
You’ve tried plenty of modalities, and something is still not shifting
Your vision feels blocked and you’re unsure how to fully step into your gifts
You’re missing a sisterhood you’ve known before, and it’s time to find your way back to it
What this retreat will help you remember
Who you are, beneath the conditioning that shaped you
The wisdom and healing gifts that, not so long ago, cost women their lives
Your power and your life force, so you have something real to offer the world
Over the years, I’ve watched this work bring about genuine, lasting change in the women who do it. On the land of Avalon, we will:
Reconnect you with your innate wisdom and gifts
Clear the blocks that have kept you from fully embodying your essence and power
Welcome and heal your masculine energy so it can unite with the feminine — giving your wisdom form, and letting you actually act on it
What to expect
Ancestral and cultural healing
Deepening your relationship with Spirit (nature & animal spirits, ancestors, etc)
Greater trust in your inner knowing
Addressing and healing the witch wound
Moving beyond the fear of your own gifts
Shifting the persecution complex and imposter syndrome
Looking at outdated narratives that block your power and don’t serve nor honour you any longer
Shamanic journeying and elemental work
Time with Glastonbury’s sacred sites: Chalice Well, White Spring, the Abbey, the Tor - and with the land itself
A 1-hour integration call (Zoom), 10 days after you return home
What this retreat is not
Real, not performative.
This is not group therapy, and it is not spiritual entertainment.
Grounded, not escapist.
Everything here is meant to be practical and liveable once you’re back in daily life.
Work, not a tour.
This is not a sightseeing trip through Glastonbury’s sacred sites.
Before you sign up
This work will likely surface things you’ve avoided for good reason. Before you commit, make sure you have:
A support system in place for your return: a therapist, help with childcare, someone you trust to talk to, access to nature
At least one full day to land when you get home, free of work and other commitments. Staying an extra day in Glastonbury can help.
