Become a Wanderess
By joining us, are not just signing up for a retreat — you’re stepping into a new chapter of your life with ongoing resources, support, and sisterhood long after the retreat ends. Wanderess Retreats and our ongoing Wanderess Circle facilitate soul journeys into the archetypes that live within you. With our signature blend of creativity, therapy, performance, and spirituality, you’ll experience radical transformation in a sacred sisterhood of women.
Whether you’re called to a writing retreat in the UK, a spiritual retreat in Italy, or a sensual healing retreat in Bali — we’ll help you choose the path that’s right for you.
At Wanderess, we believe that archetypes are powerful keys to unlocking the deepest parts of ourselves. Rooted in Jungian philosophy, archetypes serve as universal patterns of energy that shape our inner worlds and influence the way we experience life. They connect us to timeless, collective wisdom, offering insight into who we are, who we’ve been, and who we can become.
By working with feminine archetypes, we gain access to hidden strengths, unexplored aspects of our personality, and untapped potentials that can catalyze profound transformation. Each archetype represents a different facet of our being—whether it’s the Warrioress with her courage, the Sovereigness with her leadership strength, or the Shamaness with her deep compassion and healing intuition. When we consciously embody these archetypes, we activate powerful energies that can help us navigate life with more clarity, purpose, and empowerment. Our retreats are designed to immerse you in these archetypal energies, giving you the space to reclaim and reframe your life, tapping into your truest, most expansive self.
Our method integrates these archetypes with tools like our Feminine Archetypes Card Deck, somatic healing, voice technique, energy/shadow work, and theatre practice to help you explore, understand, and ultimately transform. Shadow work—the process of confronting and integrating the unconscious aspects of our psyche—allows us to shift limiting beliefs and outdated narratives that have been holding us back. Archetypes work helps us to recognise the patterns and limiting beliefs we carry and the stories we tell about ourselves. Performance/arts, and voice and somatic work all enable us to then embody a new version of our “wanderful” selves.
Through this unique process of self-exploration, creativity, and healing, we guide you to embrace the full spectrum of who you are.
At Wanderess, we don’t just teach you about archetypes—we invite you to live them, so you can step into your most authentic and empowered life.
