Wild& Sacred
Four nights on the cliffs between Cambria and Big Sur.
The Pacific. The ceremony. The women. The land.
Come home
to your wild self.
The woman beneath the roles.
Beneath the responsibility.
Beneath everything you've carried.
Some gatherings are called into being
The Pacific. The untamed beauty of one of the most iconic stretches of coastline in the world.
And a closing circle on Moonstone Beach you'll carry with you for life.
Welcome to Soul Essence: Wild & Sacred.
Fully alive.
Fully yourself.
The spark has always been in you. This is where it gets a feminine fire, ceremony circle, the open sky, and five days to come all the way home.
Dramatic cliffs. Cathedral Pines. Infinite Beauty.
This coast has a way of bringing you back to yourself. Spacious. Reverent. Joyous. Not an escape from who you are. A return to it.
"Michelle has this way of not only holding sacred space but also being fully immersed, a dualistic bridge that opens up other dimensions that wouldn't otherwise be accessible."

A place where
the veil thins.
Where the mountains meet the sea. Where the pines hold silence. Where the ocean carries energy medicine of its own.
Fire under pristine November skies. The cliffs where the continent ends. And on our final morning, Moonstone Beach, white dresses, barefoot, in circle, the ocean bearing witness.
Four nights. One remembering.
The Opening Fire
A welcome dinner as the sun sets over the Pacific. A fire ceremony on the cliffs. The container opens.
Into the Wild
Embodiment practice as the day wakes. The coast north to Ragged Point for lunch at the edge of the continent. A Sacred Journey that evening only women in true safety can enter.
The Deep Work
Sacred rest. Spacious integration. A ceremonial dinner as the sun goes down.
The Devotion Ceremony
White dresses. Moonstone Beach. Something you can't prepare for and won't forget.
Carry It Home
One last breakfast. Long hugs. You leave different than you arrived.
* Schedule honors the highest joy and most aligned flow of the group.
Held with presence, discernment, and love.

Dr. Cheri · 3x Soul Essence ParticipantMichelle holds a level of grounded presence that opens things I couldn't access alone. Through her guidance, I launched the work I've been carrying for years.
Corinna H.I signed up without knowing a single soul, simply following what felt like a gentle nudge from God saying, ‘This is for you.’ Michelle created such a loving, safe, intentional container. Every moment felt meaningful and sacred. I’m walking away feeling changed. So grateful.

This is holy work.
Because it's real.
When a woman remembers who she is, everything shifts.
Not because she became something new. Because she stopped pretending to be something less.
Wild & Sacred exists for that moment. For the exhale. For the version of you that's been waiting for permission to come all the way home.
And when you do, really do, the people around you feel it. The work you're here to do becomes clearer. The life you're meant to live gets closer.
This isn't about becoming more. It's about returning to what's already true.
With all my heart,
Michelle
The California coast
is waiting.
What it's calling you back to is yourself.
Ten seats. November 2026.
If you feel it, that's enough.
