Mary Magdalene Luxury Retreat
Awaken Your Sacred Sexual Priestess and Activate Your Ancient Wisdom
September 29-October 5
Provence, France
Hey Gorgeous
If you landed here, then chances are you are as obsessed with Mary Magdalene as I am.
You have felt a pull, you have heard a call to dive in deeper to a relationship with Mary Magdalene
You consider yourself a Priestess, a Witch, a Shaman, a Healer and the Sacred Feminine is at the core of the work that you are meant to do in the world, and you know that you are here for some big things.
You are also a woman who enjoys luxury, you want to travel in style and know that being spiritual does not mean that you have to be an underpaid martyr.
There is no denying that Mary Magdalene is having a moment! When I first studying about her a decade ago there was barely any information out there, and now there are countless books - which I have no doubt you have read them all - so many women are being called to her work, her energy, her path.
She shows us what it means to find the sacredness IN our humanity instead of trying to transcend our humanity to try and find sacredness.
If you are reading this specific page then I know that you have a love/obsession with Mary Magdalene and you want to explore her role as a Sacred Sexual Priestess, and you want to merge a pilgrimage with a luxury retreat - no staying at $10 hostels to prove that we need to sacrifice to be spiritual.
This is much more than a retreat - this is an initiation.
This is an INITIATION into YOUR body of work, how YOU will bring the codes of Mary Magdalene forward.
This is not a space where I will teach you a framework for you to replicate and follow,
this is about YOUR MEDICINE, YOUR MAGIC, YOUR SACRED FEMININE WISDOM coming through you.
I know that you have been reading every Mary Magdalene thing that you can get your hands on to prove what you already know to be true inside of yourself. You keep searching for someone who is doing what you want to do in the world to give you permission to fully own your power and work.
But this initiation is the space where you can deeply drop in and connect to Mary Magdalene to bring forth your truth, to shed the belief that something or someone outside of you knows more, or better.
Let HER awaken you, let being on the land where she spent 30 years transform you, let this experience expand you.
I grew up Catholic, I went through 10 years of Catholic school and even though the Catholic Church changed their stance on Mary Magdalene in the 1960’s, I was STILL taught that she was a prostitute, the sinner, that she was a woman to NEVER emulate.
After high school I went through a phase of not believing in anything - I knew religion was not for me, and I didn’t know of anything else, and to be honest I didn’t think too much about spirituality until my dad died, and I desperately wanted something spiritual to hold onto.
When I found my way to Mama Gena’s School of Womanly Arts and heard her say that a woman’s power is found in her connection to her Pussy, I was shocked, freaked out, and intrigued all at once. This opened me up to a TRUTH that my body recognized but my mind was terrified to admit - that pleasure, sensuality, and sexuality were the path to my power, that this was in fact a spiritual path and that this was the most SACRED work that I could do in my life.
Over the past decade I have been obsessed with the Sacred Feminine and learning about when humanity worshipped the Goddess, then I learned about Mary Magdalene and her true position as the Apostle of the Apostles……and that she was…… a Sacred Sexual Priestess.
I was hooked! Because not only was this woman that I learned had been the biggest sinner actually the top Apostle she lived in a way that sexuality was SACRED. To me that reclamation of pleasure as not just good, but SACRED was so healing.
In 2019, I attended a retreat where we were lead on a shamanic meditation journey. And the woman leading it prompted us to see our guide - and this is when Mary Magdalene appeared to me for the first time.
She told me that my role is to help leaders with sacred sexuality work.
I then spent years looking for a retreat to her Cave, to Southern France that felt well luxurious. That combined the pilgrimage elements with the kind of travel that I love…..you know where you drink champagne, flirt with hot men, stay in beautiful places, and I never found one that felt like what I wanted.
So I have finally created it!!
The Mary Magdalene Luxury Retreat!
The emphasis here being on the luxury!
One thing that always seems to be missing for me from much of the Sacred Feminine space is…..Pleasure, the connection to Pussy AND a sense of luxury and sensuality.
Mary Magdalene was Jesus’ benefactor aka his sugar mama……she was bankrolling his ministry because she was wealthy in her own right.
It is time that we not only have the sacred initiation at her cave, but that we do it in style, steeped in the luxury vibe, mixed with pleasure, sensuality and beauty.
The retreat kicks off Sunday October 1st with a cocktail hour and opening ceremony, at the 5 star hotel we will be enjoying all week.
We will spend Monday - Thursday together in retreat, pilgrimage, and ceremony.
