Incredibly well conceived and lovingly executed in every detail. This is a powerful and very high integrity retreat that provides community, wellness and transformation potential. I absolutely loved it.

Honored to be a part of this sisterhood of women supporting other women in the process of transformation, healing and leading our very best lives. This is the work that will change our lives and eventually our world 

Today I am grateful for a weekend spent in fellowship with women who are enriching their lives by focusing on their personal, professional and spiritual growth. I facilitated a workshop on self-limiting beliefs and creating your power story. I feel so incredibly blessed to have shared a safe space with these women to dig deep and tap into the negative stories that are constraining them in some way from living the life they desire.

I am feeling so clear and optimistic after the retreat. Power and purpose is my new mantra!

The women facilitators were awesome! I got such a breadth of knowledge from nutritionists, healers, career coaches and my favorite was the storyteller. Dhaya gave us so many great tips for public speaking that I could use for the future.

I’m reflecting on the magic I was privy to witness at the Awaken Society women’s retreat.

When women come together in strength to allow one another to be vulnerable, the potential is limitless. The unique mix of yoga, breath, body awareness, boundary setting, forgiveness, productivity, and so much more, is a beautiful tapestry of offerings designed to awaken women to all that life is and can be.

Seeing the transformations during the weekend, and knowing I was fueling it through my culinary gifts , is the biggest compliment I could possible receive.

Just got back from my first ever Awaken Society retreat, I feel so invigorated and powerful to return to my life where I felt I had no control. Now, I feel more empowered, ready to take back my control, and the life I want to live. Thank you for allowing me to participate in your vision, soak up all the beautiful learnings, and gifts I’ve received.

The Awaken Retreat brought together some really amazing women with quality, well-balanced programming. As someone new to the Bay Area, I am incredibly grateful for this opportunity to meet like-minded, badass women who care about personal and spiritual development, and here to boost each other up with shared intentions of making the world a better place.

I got so much more than I expected at Awaken Society! The facilitators were well chosen and the women surrounding me were gracious, kind, and deeply emotionally intelligent. I instantly felt welcome and at ease in the container created by the organizers. I’m excited to build upon the lessons and tools I gained in my personal and professional relationships.

I am overwhelmed with gratitude for the energy, openness and support shown at the retreat last weekend. I feel honored to have taken this soul journey with 43 incredible women.

We are as strong as the people we surround ourselves with… I am feeling stronger than ever, the creative juices are flowing and I feel super-charged in my ambitions! I am thankful for the new self-awareness and am committed to following it with action. Self-development is a beautiful never-ending process.

I am blessed to have this network of empowered women in my life.

The retreat was just what I needed for such a long time! It was a great experience because of, beyond our gorgeous location, the quality of the women who were there, the spirit they brought into the experience and the quality of the workshops. I came back from it it in a beautiful state of mind! Looking forward to connecting again my new sisters!

I had the privilege of being able to take part in and teach yoga for the Awaken Society retreat and to be honest didn't know what to expect. I discovered the immense power of women supporting women by showing up fully for ourselves, having the courage to get real and vulnerable, asking for what we need and supporting each other in the process. Needless to say, I found my tribe. I feel refreshed, energized and ready to co-create some seriously amazing things with these sisters of my heart.

Thank you again for the empowerment weekend and deep loving connection. What matters most is how you spend your time and the people you surround yourself with. Strong women empower strong women. Honored to be part of this transformational sisterhood.

After coming home from my second Awaken Society Retreat I am glowing with love and inspiration. I am touched by the women who showed up for themselves, ready to be open, authentic, and vulnerable. The workshops helped me get in touch with a very important message inside of me, one that had me realize my unique gifts and power. I'm moving forward with more energy and confidence in myself and with a whole tribe of powerful women by my side.

I'm always impressed with the amount of preparation and thought that goes into Awaken Society Retreats. The Awaken Ahurani retreat was no exception. I really loved how the environment, workshops, and activities naturally built into a central theme over the course of the weekend.

I have been looking for a good women's group for a while, and with Awaken Society, I found it! The content helped me expand personally, set some powerful intentions, hone my business and leadership ability, take a breather in a beautiful setting and, most importantly, connect with a dynamic, kind, grounded group of women that I will continue to grow with. And dance with! Thank you! Looking forward to the next retreat!

This is the second Awaken Society I attended. This retreat touched me on a deeper level and there was a profound shift inside of me. I made deep connections with the other women and I am so excited for all of the possibilities from these connections. As a facilitator, it was a joy to work with the Awaken Society to team to help create and hold space for all of the attendees.

My first ever retreat left me feeling calm and with some much-needed clarity and support for this next chapter ahead. I did not really have any expectations I just knew that the timing was perfect. There is something magical about being in the Redwoods with a group of extraordinary women. Thank you again for a wonderful weekend! Awaken Society Retreat was a truly amazing experience - can't wait to keep building on these connections and looking forward to the next one!

I'm so grateful for this amazing experience. It's rare to connect at such a deep level with complete strangers, though most of all I connected with myself in a new way. I left feeling renewed, inspired, and with a sense of belonging like I've never experienced before.

Starting off the weekend with Jessica's session on mindset really grounded me for what was to come for the whole retreat. Looking at our true selves, seeing past the negative talk back and through to the incredible goodness and beauty we possess- this session alone was worth the trip. I have been writing out intentions for my best self almost every day since - "I am inspired!"

I was nervous walking into my FIRST retreat but embraced it with an open mind and heart. After, I was quite emotional and had a little trouble getting back into reality. Over the last week since my thoughts continue to look to my experiences during the weekend when making choices in my regular life. I am making more conscious decisions now when it comes to what I choose to eat, my use of plastic, how I interact with others, how I view my environment etc

I had a wonderful weekend filled with self care at the retreat. Close to 40 women participating in mindfulness practices, transformative workshops and inspiring one another.

I loved the diversity of the woman that came together. I was really inspired by all the facilitators and the guests. One of my favorite parts was getting to ask for needs in front of the group because I learned more about the women through that.

This retreat has left me feeling recharged, inspired, more confident, connected, and ready to give. The WOMEN, ALL INCREDIBLE. So much love, sharing and care. I love attending workshops of varying topics and practices that support my emotional, mental, and physical well being; I love eating healthy delicious and nourishing food; and I love connecting with people who empower themselves and others.

I found myself feeling more comfortable in my own skin than I've felt in a long time.

I was touched by the immediate and earnest generosity during the ask/offer session on the last day. It was clear that each of the women in that circle has the capacity to make a significant impact in their own way. Together, our power is more than the sum of our individual parts.

I have really appreciated this experience. Everything was good : people, the program, the location, the atmosphere, food. I felt relaxed, boosted, positive and more motivated regarding my goals.

I had an incredible time at the Awaken Aphrodite Retreat! Although I came to the retreat alone, without knowing any of the women prior, I left feeling loved, supported, and bonded with many! The spiritual, health and wellness, and artistic programs were especially healing and helpful to me. I've had a challenging couple of years and a major recent heartbreak, and have been craving this kind of soulful, free-spirited, genuinely feminine-centered community. Thank you so much to Awaken Society! I can't wait to see what's ahead.

So TOTALLY amped and inspired. I just can never thank you all enough. I look forward to contributing to the world (and many more magical moments) together.
