From Loss to Light
Retreat
Honouring Loss - Embracing Light
Have you had a loss and are you grieving?
Do you wish to lean into the pain and struggles within the company of supportive, understanding women.
Loss takes many forms — not only death and divorce but also the loss of identity, safety, autonomy, dreams, expectations, or the changes brought by life transitions.​
A wise friend once said, "Our bodies do not distinguish one loss from another. No matter the loss's form, one goes through a grief process".
Join Jo Anne & Eight Women on this

Transformative Journey
February 1st to 7th in Mazatlán, Mexico at
This is your sacred pause in the "space between" sorrow and joy - an opportunity to discover your purpose while being heard, witnessed, and validated among understanding women. Drawing from my experiences, I hold a safe container where each person can navigate her unique journey through compassionate listening and holistic practices. Come be held in a luxurious, peaceful private home while you do the work.
This retreat is an invitation to slow down, reconnect, and restore—mind, body, heart, and spirit. Below, you’ll find everything you need to know about what’s included, what to expect, and how Jo Anne will continue to support you well beyond your time together.
