🎨 What to Expect:

Hello,

Women tend to experience themselves through their daily actions as mothers, daughters, wives, professionals, or friends. We rarely, if ever, take the opportunity to give ourselves a sacred space to discover, experience, and fully appreciate our power and greatness as women.

Together with an amazing team, I have created a transformative creative experience to help women discover their true and exquisite power. You will be taken on an exciting journey to create a personal portrait that surprises, liberates, and delights you in ways you could only have imagined. You will free yourself from the constrictions of your critical voice, you’ll let go of the endless expectations of others and revel in the power, mystery, and beauty that is uniquely yours.

This is all about you. The experience of making art in a dreamy villa, the delicious home-cooked meals, the remarkable women you will meet, and the opportunity to see yourself fully for the first time while being witnessed by others will move you unlike anything else. You will remember the "before and after" of your Crown Quest Transformational Retreat in San Miguel de Allende as you remember seminal events such as your wedding day(s), childbirth, graduation, and business success.
