We hear all the time about the importance of self-care and even self-love, but how can we begin any of that if we struggle to show ourselves even the smallest amount of kindness and grace?

Self-judgment, shame, perfectionism, all-or-nothing thinking, these are all examples of a life deficient in self-grace.

When you have self-grace you're gentle and patient with yourself. You give ourselves the benefit of the doubt and you know, deep inside, that you are enough and utterly deserving of your own love, respect and admiration.

During this self-grace retreat we'll dive deep into new ways of approaching self-judgement and you'll learn simple practices to start showing yourself more kindness every single day!

Join us and give yourself the gift of grace! xo

Love from the 2023 retreat guests...

“I enjoyed the camaraderie and meeting my new sisterhood. I feel like I have a whole new support system rooting for me. I also really enjoyed the meditations, led by Sara.

The food was nutritious and yummy!

I'm so glad I came. It's been inspiring and like a kick-start for me!” - Joan Carter

“What I enjoyed most about the retreat was how, even though we were all at different places on our journey, we were all connected. No one was there to judge or ridicule when we were most vulnerable. The love in the air was almost palpable.

Every single one of us learned something about ourselves and it was a beautiful thing to see and experience. ” - Samantha Reeves

“I was happy I came because it allowed me to detach and get into a place of feeling Zen. I needed that, along with the work that we did and reflections that were needed. I’m still feeling Zen today even though I’m back at home!” - Diana Havers

“I was extremely happy that I came to the retreat, it was a perfect opportunity to meet Sara and other like minded ladies in person and to share and learn together. It was hard to leave on Sunday; I just wanted it to continue longer!!” - Pat O’Brien

A sense of peace, clarity and certainty about who you are and what your purpose is now;
An understanding of who you want to be in the next chapter of your life, and how to create consistent rituals, routines and boundaries to make that a reality;
To be an inspiration to your family - not an obligation;
A feeling of happiness and confidence with yourself and your body - embracing the beautiful gifts of wisdom and aging;
To feel aligned with and supported by your own intuition as well as the natural elements of Mother Nature, the moon cycle and the Divine Feminine acting as guides along the way;
To be part of a sisterhood of like-minded women, all at a similar stage of life, where you can be seen and heard, and with whom you can share, connect and find daily inspiration and motivation.

LIVE DISCUSSION CIRCLES DAYS & TIMES

I'll host Live Discussion Circles via Zoom every Tuesday. Times will alternate between 2pm and 7pm.

You absolutely do NOT need to attend every discussion circle. They’ll all be recorded. Just come to the ones that work for you!

LET’S HEAR FROM SOME PAST PARTICIPANTS

“I found the best pieces of me through this program. I feel more confident and more connected to my core values. Chapter YOU helped me see that these have always been there, they were just muddied by the idea that I was not enough.

It’s a safe place to laugh or cry because there is always someone in the group that can relate. It’s a place to be heard. A place to feel free to express yourself. A place to feel valued.”

- Kathy Smith

“Since doing the Chapter YOU program I’m so much more mindful in all of my choices.

I’m less anxious and I have more confidence.”

- Lorie Webster

“Chapter YOU is a wonderful program that has enhanced so many aspects of my life. All my actions, behaviors and decisions, whether around food, or anything else, are so much more intentional and less mindless now. I would highly recommend this for anyone!”

- Pat O’Brien

“I decided to join Chapter YOU because I was looking for more purpose in my life. Since completing the 12 week program I’ve become more present and I’ve let things go that were no longer serving me. What a change!"

- Karen Smith

“I joined Chapter YOU because I wanted to explore new views, values and ideas about what this next stage of my life looks like. Thanks to the program, I now feel ready and willing to take up space in my own life. It confirmed some of my choices and also showed me where I could shift my ideas. I loved the peer discussions and support as well as learning new ideas and different ways to think.”

- Christine Hemens
