I grew up in Orillia. Chances are, if you did too - we may have met. Or maybe you know some of my family. We moved around a lot as kids. I went to nearly every Elementary School as well as both Twin Lakes and Park Street for High School.
I was a young mom. I moved to Barrie right after high school where I had my son before we moved to London. Like so many other women, motherhood stirred up my childhood trauma. The stuff we all deal with to some degree, but not everyone talks about.
4 years later, I had my daughter and once again, it all came up... but this time I couldn't ignore it!
I found myself repeating the same cycles I had experienced as a child... the ones that I was so ANGRY that I had to experience myself... and then of course came the guilt and shame for the way I was showing up for my own children!
I saw a Psychiatrist, a Fitness Coach and a Psychic Medium all around the same time.
My healing journey / Spiritual Awakening, whatever you want to call it began...
In hindsight I can see that I was addressing the 3 parts of me: Mind - Body - Soul.
The past 13 years I have spent navigating my own journey. There have been so many readings, healing sessions, rituals, ceremonies, plant medicine journeys, etc. Each helping to alchemizing my pain, my challenges and my struggles into lessons and helping others along the way.
A few years into my journey, I realized this is my PURPOSE!
I have now been a space holder for the past 10 years - and well before that for all of my family and friends. Today, I work as a Spiritual Life & Business Mentor, Retreat Host and Shamanic Healer.
I have worked with over 1000 women all over North America (and a couple overseas). I have hosted Group Retreats in BC, Alberta and Sedona, AZ and Private Retreats at my home in the Okanagan, BC.
I have had many requests to host a retreat in Orillia, and I always knew that I would. I believe in Divine Timing more than anything else, and now certainly feels like the time!
December can be CHAOS!!
We often put ourselves on the back burner trying to make memories and traditions with our family...
Family... the greatest source of Love and also the greatest source of Pain!
Everyone ends up with this triggered, burnt out, overstimulated version of us... Rather than creating happy memories, we're forcing photos, constantly frustrated and reactive.
Queue the guilt and shame!
Then of course, there are many of us who have painful memories associated with the holidays! A traumatic childhood, grieving lost loved ones who can't be here to celebrate with us, etc.
Come...
Let me hold space for you
Join me for this 4 hour Women's Retreat where we will take the time for ourselves, not to DO MORE, but to just to BE.
Taking the time to drop into our Divine Feminine Energy. Receiving, Nurturing, Healing!
December especially can be go, go, go, do, do, do... which is that masculine energy - the result being that we stifle our own intuition and our own self healing... our divine feminine energy!
During our time together, we will go through many Shamanic energy practices that you can take with you in the day to day to help you find calm in the Christmas Chaos!
"I have worked and studied in the spiritual realm for many years and now have met many amazing mentors, but Jennie has really made a big impression on me. It's clear that she truly cares for each and every one of her clients, investing and believing in their success.
To me, a true mentor is one that is never complacent in their own spiritual journey and the most inspiring aspect of Jennie is how she remains raw, real and ever evolving."
"I am so freaking grateful for this last week, for the people I've met, the reminders, the shadow work, my gifts, beautiful grandmother jaguar, my powerful dragon and lion animal guides, and my amazing team of 6 spirit guides.
Thank you Jennie for letting me remember who I am. I am love, I am light, and I release what no longer serves me. I am on the journey of alignment, and have a long way to go, but I've remembered who I've always been this week and I was surrounded by beautiful, loving women on the same path. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
"My favourite part of the retreat was the opening of the deepest part of me I have held closed for so long... How comfortable I felt with sharing after connecting to such amazing women.
All the workshops played a key part to empowering me and providing me the confidence to open up, share and release some of my deepest inner pain I carried alone all these years."
