FLOW STATE: ACTIVATE
A women’s retreat for those ready to find flow within the hustle.
Still ambitious. Just smarter about it.
May 1–3, 2026 | Bend, Oregon
You juggle a lot and make it look normal.
A full life, real responsibility, constant momentum.
You’re not looking to escape your life.
You want to move through it differently.
You want to feel good while doing big things.
The Human Behind the Work
I live big. I dream big. I go after bold goals. I fall, I stumble, I learn, and I get back up. Over and over again. The way I live is the way I lead.
I believe radical responsibility changes everything. Especially when it comes to mindset. I’m deeply passionate about helping women level up in a real way. Not performative growth. Not surface-level mindset shifts. The kind of growth that asks you to show up honestly, take ownership, and choose differently when it matters most.
FLOW STATE: ACTIVATE is a full expression of who I am and how I work. It blends education, experience, movement, creativity, and reflection into something that can actually be felt, not just understood.
There is nothing I love more than creating spaces where women reconnect to themselves, remember what brings them into flow, and walk back into their lives with more clarity, confidence, and momentum.
Sharing this work, this energy, and this frequency is my deepest fulfillment.
Let’s floooooow!
