A One-Day Retreat for Women Location: Yoga Loft, Palo Alto, CA August 8th, 2026 There is a form of authority that does not push, prove, or perform. It is born of experience—lived, reflected upon, and integrated. It arises quietly, from having lived fully, loved deeply, lost honestly, and allowing life to shape wisdom.  As the years of active caretaking and outer striving soften, many women find themselves at a threshold. Roles fall away. Time opens. A deeper question emerges: How do I now stand in my life? This retreat invites women to consciously inhabit the quiet authority of experience—the natural authority that emerges as wisdom, discernment, compassion, and presence. Exploration/Movement/Breathwork/Revelation  What We Will Explore • Experience as a source of authority and trust • The difference between knowledge and embodied wisdom • Mentoring as offering rather than instruction • Guiding without fixing, rescuing, or self-erasure • Compassion grounded in discernment and self-respect • Vitality as Presence and Aliveness Full day retreat / Lunch included
