Hello, World!
Return to the
Womb of Creation
Seven days of sacred art, energetic awakening, and deep feminine remembering in the ancient landscape of Sicily
She has been waiting
for you to return
Somewhere beneath the ordinary — beneath the roles you play, the to-do lists, the noise — there is a place in you that is ancient. Fertile. Unbroken. This is the womb space: not simply a physical location, but a creative center. The place all life comes from.
Sicily is one of the oldest inhabited landscapes in the world. Its soil holds the memory of Persephone's descent and return, of Demeter's grief and the earth's renewal. Mount Etna still breathes. The temples to Aphrodite, Athena, and Demeter still stand at the sea's edge. This land has not forgotten.
We are going there to remember.
"This is not a vacation. It is a return — to the body, to the creative fire, to the part of you that knows exactly who she is."
Seven days across the
body of the goddess
Each location was chosen for its mythic resonance, its natural power, and its capacity to hold deep feminine work — woven with art, energy practice, spa restoration, and sacred ritual.
Two women.
One vision.
For over 20 years, Kim has guided women and organizations through life transitions using her EnergyWorks Method — a somatic, heart-centered approach to releasing emotional blocks and reconnecting with creative life force. Author of From Chaos to Creativity, she has led sacred journeys through the goddess landscapes of Malta and Sicily, and founded Moon EnergyWorks, a practice of aligning with lunar cycles for healing and renewal. On this retreat, Kim holds the energetic and spiritual container: daily circle facilitation, moon ceremonies, equinox ritual, and deep feminine activation.
Catherine is a Paris-based artist whose work moves between painting, storytelling, and the magic found in everyday beauty. Her mission is to awaken joy and creativity in the world — and she believes the studio can be anywhere: a volcanic slope, an ancient ruin, the luminous edge of the sea. On this retreat, Catherine leads all art workshops, bringing her lyrical, intuitive approach to mark-making, mixed media, and personal myth-making. No experience required. Only willingness to begin.
Luxury that belongs
to the land
Every hotel was chosen for its beauty, its spa, and its deep resonance with the landscape around it. These are not generic luxury properties — they are places with soul.
A former palmento (wine press) and rose-colored manor in fragrant citrus groves. Michelin-starred restaurant. Spa carved into volcanic rock. Infinity pool facing the volcano.
A grand Art Nouveau post office transformed into one of Sicily's finest hotels. Indoor saltwater pool, hammam, sauna. Every room with views over the Porto Piccolo and the sea.
A 15th-century Dominican monastery perched above the Ionian Sea. Infinity pool with Etna views. Michelin-starred dining. Full spa. The most iconic hotel in Sicily.
Everything that matters.
Nothing you don't need.
Not included: international flights, personal spa extras beyond group sessions, lunches, travel insurance.
A devotion to yourself.
Seven days of transformation, luxury, and creative awakening in one of the most ancient landscapes on earth.
