Why Resonāre

Women have more information than ever about leadership, wellness and longevity.
But knowing what to do rarely translates into changing how we live.



Resonāre is designed to close that gap.


We integrate women’s health and longevity, behavior science, leadership development, and restoration to help women turn insight into practical priorities and sustainable change.


For accomplished women in midlife, roughly 40 to 60, navigating demanding careers, changing health needs, and questions about what they want the next chapter of their lives to look like.

Who It’s For

What to Expect

At this stage in life, so many things are tangled up — career and family, strength and exhaustion, who you are and who everyone needs you to be. This retreat is where you unwind it all. Give yourself the permission to relax and let go of anything that no longer serves you.

Your 3 Day Schedule

  • Before you arrive: You’ll take a self-assessment and watch one film that will change how you think about your health.

  • Friday evening: We’ll begin with dinner, values discovery and Stories of Self—moving beyond titles and résumés to connect around what matters most.

  • Saturday morning: We’ll dive into purpose and vision work followed by the longevity science that connects what's happening in your body to how you lead.

  • Saturday afternoon: We’ll have a hands-on AI session to help you in life and leadership, then it’s your choice for a wellbeing session — forest bathing, spa, or sound healing.

  • Saturday evening: We’ll have dinner, drinks, and a creative experience that will surprise you.

  • Sunday morning: We’ll explore Authentic Authority—how you want to show up and how others experience you—then translate the weekend into your 90-Day Resonance Plan. We’ll close with the Resonāre Water Ceremony, an experience of release, choice and renewal.
