The Yes of You

Next Retreat: Autumn 2026

A Women’s Threshold Retreat with cin salach and Emily Blank

Join our waiting list for our next retreat as we step into ourselves, into a community of women and nature, crossing the threshold from exhausted woman to nurtured visionary.

Through intuitive listening, healing, and writing, rest, joy, and nourishment in the sacred arms of nature, you will step through a doorway into radical knowing. Divine bliss. The truest true of you.

What is a Threshold Retreat?

A Threshold Retreat is a space where women’s voices are safe to be amplified.

It takes courage to stand on the cusp of past and future and just breathe. But when we let ourselves experience them wholly, we begin to realize that thresholds are more than doorways; they are pathways of connection—to ourselves, each other, Mother Earth, our ancestors, to every “yes” that lives deep in our bodies. 

Why you might need this:

  • You spend a lot of time taking care of others and want to begin taking care of YOU.

  • Your nest is newly empty, or about to be, and you’re anxious to welcome what’s next.

  • You are single and excited to chart out your next phase.

  • You are ready to take a career, business opportunity, or entrepreneurial leap.

  • You feel a calling to expand your purpose and live louder.

What you’ll walk away with:

  • A deep sense of being seen and heard.

  • A well-nourished mind, body, and spirit.

  • A powerful community of sisters and threshold soulmates. 

  • Intuitive tools to continue crossing thresholds

  • A soul poem that reflects the truest true of you.

  • An energized and expanded purpose.

Registration will open in January 2026. For more information about the retreat and to join the waitlist to be the first to register with special bonuses, enter your email below.

Wheel of Bliss 2025

Moments from our sanctuary in the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina.

Our safe container allows women to go deep. This deep process of transformation means we come home lighter than we can imagine, having danced across our thresholds with soul poems as new maps to find ourselves again and again.

Nestled among some of the oldest mountains in the world, ancient wisdom fills the very air we will be breathing throughout our retreat. Mother Nature shows off her most sacred self in the 63 acres of protected land that include lush forests, wild waterfalls, and serene freshwater streams.

What participants are saying…

  • The immersion with the group of women was unlike anything I have every experienced before. The thing that has carried through for me is a sense of peace that I tapped into while I was there. Getting in touch with your intuition and really feeling like your Yes is authentic. And the feeling of really tapping into what is my truth, my most authentic sense of being. I really brought that back with me.

  • For me, to have this opportunity to share this time, to create this time, to make these connections, to have the opportunity to be with a safe, caring group of women was something so memorable. Safety is big for me. Safety to express myself, think about thresholds, and think about what is important to me was a gift.

  • I was hesitant about the money at first, but I don’t know what I was thinking because I got so much more…what i got from every single segment of this, you couldn’t put a price on it.
