Upcoming Events

February Winter Retreat

If you’re “fine”… but you’re also:

• carrying the mental load for everyone
• overthinking everything at 2:00 AM
• snapping at the people you love (then feeling guilty)
• stuck in the same stress loop no matter what you try
• hearing that quiet inner voice that says, “I’m not enough”…

You don’t need another pep talk.
You don’t need another book you won’t finish.
You don’t need “try harder.”

You need freedom.

We free people from stress and limiting beliefs with one habit and three words:
Pause. Breathe. Proceed.
One Habit. Three Words.
A new way of living with a new way of thinking.
A solution that sticks long after the series.

That’s exactly what this series is built to do.

3 Freedom Journeys (In-Person + Virtual Option)

In-Person | Pause Breathe Proceed Wellness Studio (Boyne City)
Sundays 10:00 AM – 12:00 PM
Feb 8, 15, 22
Limited spots (small group on purpose)

Can’t make a Sunday? You can join the Zoom that same week.

Virtual | Zoom
Wednesdays 6:00 PM – 8:00 PM
Feb 11, 18, 25

This is a pattern-interrupt… and a path forward.

You’ll learn how to use Pause Breathe Proceed to get out of survival mode, clear the mental noise, and start living with more peace, power, and purpose.

Why these three journeys (and how they match Pause Breathe Proceed)

Week 1 — PAUSE: Reconnect with Your Inner Child (Feb 8 / Feb 11)

A lot of our stress patterns start young.
We learn to people-please, overachieve, stay quiet, stay strong, stay in control.

This journey helps you reconnect with your younger self and understand where your stress response began—so you can Pause in real life and stop the pattern before it hijacks your day.

Week 2 — BREATHE: You Are Enough (Feb 15 / Feb 18)

This is where limiting beliefs loosen their grip—especially the big one: “I’m not enough.”

The breath reaches places talking can’t touch.
And this journey? It changed my life.

It helped set me free from my own “not enough” story… and gave me the courage to stop playing small and launch my business.
Not because life got perfect—because I stopped building my life on a lie.

Week 3 — PROCEED: Letting Go & Moving On (Feb 22 / Feb 25)

Freedom isn’t just release. It’s direction.

This final journey supports you in letting go of what you’re done carrying—old stories, old pain, old identities—and then Proceeding forward with clarity, strength, and intention.

The “between sessions” secret weapon: the Freedom Box

Breathwork opens the door.
But freedom is built in the everyday moments—when you’re triggered, overwhelmed, spiraling, or about to react.

That’s why the Freedom Box matters.
It gives you tools you can use between sessions and long after—so the changes don’t fade when you’re back in real life.

We’re not here to be “a cool event.”
We’re here for real change that lasts.

Letting Go & Moving On

A Retreat for the Wild, the Worn
and the Wondering

Wildwood Healing Ranch

Gaylord, MI

September 14th, 2025 - 9:00 - 3:00 PM

A pasture. A breath. A clear note—and the moment you finally let go.

Spend six powerful hours in nature releasing what no longer serves you—emotionally, mentally, and energetically. Through gentle, non-riding equine experiences, an immersive 9D Breathwork journey (“Letting Go & Moving On”), and a restorative sound healing session, you’ll regulate your nervous system, reconnect with your truth, and walk away lighter. We’ll integrate it all with a real-talk Bloom-in-sanity Chat (no fluff—just grounded badassery), then return to the herd to anchor lasting change. A nourishing lunch is included, and we’ve created a cozy space so you can fully relax into the work.

You’ll love this if you’re:

Stuck in overdrive and craving a real reset

Hungry for honest connection and community

Ready to trade autopilot for intention, peace, and purpose

Come as you are. Leave as more of who you are.

Space is limited—your transformation isn’t. Let’s do this.

If you’ve ever said “I’m fine” when you weren’t…

If you’re holding it all together on the outside

but feel like you’re falling apart inside…

If you're tired of self-help that doesn’t stick…


This is for you.
