 This week I'm joined by my right-hand woman (well... technically my left-hand woman), Maggie Kitch, for a behind-the-scenes look at our very first Aligned Sanctuary women's retreat. Eight women, three days, and a home that was prepared with so much intention to hold them.

The retreat sold out in just three weeks, and the group ranged from moms in their 30s with young kids to a beautiful woman who had just celebrated her 80th birthday. We talk about how this whole idea bubbled up for me after nine busy months of book promotion, why I chose to host it in my own home, and the simple way I prepared my space before anyone walked through the door.

You'll also hear our favorite moments, a couple of hiccups we sailed through (including a last-minute presenter swap under a full moon), and one woman's powerful realization about the color of her bedroom and her sleep.

In this episode, you'll learn:

  • Why I scheduled slow, unhurried planning time every week leading up to the retreat, and why I'll do it for every event from now on
  • How I prepared my home to welcome guests: fresh air, a thorough space clearing, and setting an intention for every room
  • Easy ways to prepare your own space before hosting a holiday gathering, game night, or girls' weekend
  • What "flow time" is and why it became one of the most-loved parts of the weekend
  • How the color of a bedroom can quietly affect your sleep
  • What we learned, what we'd tweak, and what's coming next for spring 2027
