May 22-25, 2026
Join us on a private 90 acre oasis nestled in the Appalachian Mountains, just outside Burnsville, North Carolina.
Slow & Sacred
Hi friend – I am Samantha, your host and facilitator for the weekend. I humbly invite you to a three night escape to a container of deep healing and nourishment in the Appalachian mountains. This is my third womb wellness retreat – created with the intention to remind ourselves of the importance of slowing down and listening to our intuition. I aspire for each individual to leave feeling more connected to their-self, nature, and with one another.
My vision is to create a space where each sister can show up as her authentic self and feel safer, seen, and supported. Though there are many wellness activities planned throughout the weekend, there will also be lots of free time to paint, read, lay in the sun, or anything else you feel called to do.
I pray each sister leaves feeling nourished on a soul level.
Meet Your Supporters
Private Chef
Kearsley
I am so excited to welcome Kearsley back for the third year in a row to cultivate delicious and divine dinners. With a background in Ayurvedic and specialty as a postpartum chef, Kearsley brings a presence that is just as warm and loving as her food. Kearsley will create two nourishing dinners, along with a special dinner ritual.
Ayurvedic Workshop + Sound Healing
Talia
Talia is the owner of a local Yoga studio in Greensboro and I have had the honor of having her attend and lead our yoga sessions the previous two retreats. However, Talia is showing up this year in a different way – and I am so grateful to have her share some of her many other talents. Talia will be joining us one full day for a specially crafted Ayurvedic workshop, followed by a beautiful sound healing session later. She will also be offering a limited amount of private energy sessions (for an additional cost).
Pottery Workshop
Kam
I am so grateful to be welcoming Kam and her intentional pottery crafting into our retreat space. As a local Appalachian, Kam intertwines her gift of pottery with notes of copper and nature – where each piece has a unique story and intention. She will be visiting our cabin and leading a very special pottery class, where each of you will get to take home your art.
Drum Crafting
Shannon
Shannon is the beautiful craftor behind Spirit Weaver Designs where she hand-crafts woven earrings, frame drums, smudging fans, small paintings, and also creates beautiful photography. Shannon will be joining us for the entire weekend, and will lead an animal hide drum crafting class (the deer hides are sourced from a family-owned and operated native business in Washington state). The retreat price includes a 10″ deer drum, but the option to upgrade to a 12″, 14″, or 15″ drum is available as well (for an additional cost).
Our Space
A private house on 90 acres is where we will spend our weekend together. Slowness, community, connection, and nature will be our themes for the weekend. This is the perfect place to catch a sunrise (or sunset), explore the lands nature trails, relax by the South Toe River, or star gaze at night. You can expect to see deer, wild turkeys, and other animals enjoying the lands fruit trees.
