A Christ-centered retreat in a sacred garden in Carlsbad, California — for the woman who has been carrying too much, for too long.
Be still. Be known. Be loved.
You carry a lot — and you carry it well. But somewhere along the way, your own soul got quiet. Not because God left, but because life got loud.
You feel stretched thin — mentally, emotionally, or spiritually — and you're longing for something deeper than a weekend away.
You desire real, unhurried time with God, but life keeps filling the space before you ever get there.
You long for a peace that goes deeper than momentary relief — something that stays with you when you go back home.
You're ready to step away from the noise, breathe again, and reconnect with what — and Who — truly matters.
"You were never meant to carry this alone. There is a quiet place where God is waiting — and it has your name on it."
Matthew 11:28 — Come to me, and I will give you rest
These are real women who came carrying a lot — and left differently. Their words are the truest description of what awaits you.
"I came feeling overwhelmed, burdened, and far away from Christ. I left feeling like my heart and my soul had been refreshed, my relationship with Him strengthened — and it was one of the most beautiful experiences of my life."
This garden looks like what the Bible describes when God created the Garden of Eden — breathtaking and peaceful. All my anxieties left by the time I was done. When Janie prayed over me, something shifted. I left a different woman.
I received a revelation from the Lord during the lectio divina and spent my quiet time on the hillside simply absorbing what I heard. I left uplifted, encouraged, and more alive than I had felt in months.
I felt LOVE the moment I walked through the gates. The garden was breathtaking — so peaceful and welcoming. I came expectant, ready to go deep, and I was not disappointed. This is a place unlike any other.
This retreat is led with love, intention, and decades of wisdom. You will be in very good hands.
With a Master's in Theology and over forty years guiding women toward deeper intimacy with God, Janie leads each retreat with wisdom rooted in Scripture and shaped by beauty.
Kathy serves as host and facilitator — lovingly preparing every detail so you can simply arrive, rest, and be fully present. When you're here, you are held.
