About this trip

An all-inclusive 6 night/7 day personal wellness and professional development retreat uniquely designed for femme leaders. Join  Steph Chee and Amie Heeter for a week of deep experience and learning, immersed in the eco-luxe oasis of Prana Del Mar in Baja, Mexico between the desert and ocean in this wildly beautiful nature. Find greater capacity, insight, and flow in relationship to the foundational elements of FIRE and WATER and the polarities at play in your inner and outer life.


Whether you are a female-identified founder, team or community leader, health and wellness professional, artist or entrepreneur – this retreat is designed exclusively for the fierce and the feminine – aiming to carve a new path of empowerment, connection, and leadership. 


What is the FIRE? The FIRE component relates to illuminating our passions, our aspirations, our growth, and how we nurture the flame that ignites all of this within and around us. We’ll access clarity and verve in relation to how we are showing up in our personal and professional lives (and for ourselves) as well as keeping our fire lit and radiant without burning out. 


What is the WATER? The WATER aspect invites us to be in relationship with how we flow as creatives and innovators, how we nourish ourselves through periods of high intensity, tending to our personal waters as a foundation of health, and allowing ourselves to be supported and held as we hold others. Water also has the ability to carry our desires, hopes and dreams.


TOPICS & SESSIONS:


Our daily sessions will include self-inquiry, group discussions, embodied practice, meditation, time in nature, and adventure. You'll have the opportunity to reflect, learn, and connect with like-minded women who share your passion for leadership and personal growth. 

  • The Alchemy of Fire & Water – how to balance passion and nurturing in your leadership journey.
  • Embracing Paradox –how to hold the tension and complexity of seemingly contradictory or oppositional elements, opening the space for creative outcomes.
  • Navigating Uncertainty – strategies for sustaining steadiness in turbulent times.
  • Inner Clarity – precision of vision and values for 2024.
  • Generative Mutuality – how to build connections that support and elevate us.
  • Rituals of Self-Care – practical tools and habits to sustain your fire without burning out.

DESERT/OCEAN TEACHINGS & EXCURSIONS:

  • Snorkeling/Whale watching
  • Hiking/Horseback riding
  • Nighttime Fire Ritual
  • Sunset Water Ritual

**BONUS GIFT: 1:1 BIZ DEV/LEGACY wisdom session with femme founder Laura Croft, Esq. Scheduling TBA on retreat.


All teachings and adventures (2x/daily) led by Amie and Steph.


Come away, ignite and inspire yourself in this wildly sunny and beautiful setting where we will have the entire resort to ourselves – YES! Together, in shared practice and experience, we will hold the intention to illuminate our capacity for greater vibrancy and connection, just before the darkness of winter descends.

Reviews

I met wonderful people. The sessions were incredibly thoughtful and I appreciated learning new things. The food was amazing and Chelsea was very kind. The support and camaraderie was impressive. The sleeping situation was not what I expected. I assumed from the description each person would have a med room with a private bathroom. I loved being in nature and the barn was perfect.

What an incredible retreat experience with Steph and Amie in Baja this past week! They both facilitated a very wonderful retreat for female leaders. It was a perfect mix of yoga, workshops, discussions, free time, and adventure activities. They were welcoming, friendly, and fun - making the whole experience wonderful. The location was incredible, the retreat center was top-notch on every level. The food was amazing, the rooms were spacious, the massages were incredible, the pool was lovely..and all of this was just steps away from the ocean with whale sightings every day! I highly recommend doing a retreat with Steph and Amie!
