Attending this year end retreat was a deeply affirming experience. It provided a sacred space to reconnect with my childhood—not to relive it, but to honor it. The focus wasn't on fixing, but on witnessing—honoring the full truth of my childhood memories, the sensitivities, the joys, and the strengths that were forged. The greatest gift was the serene atmosphere itself, which allowed a quiet confidence to emerge. I now move forward into 2026 feeling more integrated, peaceful, and powerfully aligned with all parts of my story.
