Embodied Radiance is a four week feminine embodiment container designed to help you reconnect with your body, build self trust, expand your pleasure capacity, and get to know the truth of who you are.
Embodied Radiance is a space for women to unwind emotional experiences and unintegrated trauma that may be blocking (protecting) them from moving through the world in a more true and authentic way.
In this four week
container, we will explore:
Reclaiming the parts of yourself that you have denied or exiled
in order to belong.
Your own unique expression in the world and what is holding you
back from that.
What it means to be a woman in the modern age.
Letting go of performance, masking or contorting ourselves for the male gaze.
Witnessing and being witnessed in the fullness of who you are.
Digest the undigested emotional experiences living in your body and psyche.
Opening yourself up to the eros and aliveness that lives within you.
Supporting nervous system regulation and self expression.
Intuitive, free flowing movement.
Reconnecting with your body, sensuality and pleasure capacity.

This tropical retreat in Playa Marsella,
Nicaragua is lovingly curated by Brenna Bote and Cheryl Kish to
help you reconnect with rest—not just as a concept, but as a vital
practice. Through daily yin, somatic, and meditation practices,
surrounded by the jungle and steps from the ocean, we’ll explore
how to detoxify our bodies, minds, and spirits and restore our
nervous systems to a harmonious state of connection.
This retreat is for you if:
- You crave a deeper connection with a community of like-minded women
- You experience states of overwhelm, burn out, or are stretched too thin—at work, at home, or simply within
- You're a parent, coach, teacher, health professional, business owner, or caregiver that is constantly filling others’ cups and find it hard to take a break
- You’ve been running on empty and you need a
break
In a world that glorifies productivity,
this retreat offers a reset—to shift away from falsehoods around
our wellbeing, embrace deep rest, and replenish our inner reserves.
Are you ready to release the pressures of the to-do list and
surrender to the presence of being?
