Rest Shouldn’t Be Earned.
It Should Feel Safe.

You’re the woman people rely on. Capable. Self-led. Thoughtful. The glue in every room you walk into.

You handle so much — quietly, competently, consistently.

But even the strongest women need a moment where they don’t have to be the steady one.

Where they can:
• put everything down
• exhale fully
• stop performing
• stop holding it all
• stop being “the one”

And finally feel safe enough to rest.

This weekend was created for you. The woman who rarely asks for anything, but always deserves the very best.

I’m Choosing Myself

Imagine this…

Soft mountain light wakes you.
No alarm. No inbox. No expectations.


You walk downstairs wrapped in a robe, the scent of cedar and quiet greeting you.
Fire crackling. Warm mugs. Women who feel instantly familiar: grounded, kind, intentional. Women like you.


Dr. Briana Botsford is there too — centered, warm, unhurried.
She guides you through gentle breathwork and nervous-system practices that feel like your whole body remembering itself.


You step outside and feel the cool alpine air on your face. Your shoulders relax without you even noticing. You haven’t felt this safe, this calm, this you in a long time.


By dinner, you’re laughing easily. Not because you’re trying but because you finally feel spacious again. This is the moment your nervous system whispers, “Thank you.”

Who You Become Here

This retreat isn’t about escape. It’s about reconnecting with the woman you’ve been too busy to hear.

You’ll leave:

  • grounded instead of rushed

  • regulated instead of overstimulated

  • clear instead of scattered

  • soft instead of braced

  • connected instead of carrying everything alone

  • choosing yourself without apology

  • leading from intention, not urgency

This is the version of you that’s been whispering for attention.

This weekend gives her the space to rise.

Yes, I’m Ready for My Reset

Why This Retreat Is Different

  • Calm Luxury

    Warm textures, soft robes, slow meals, quiet corners, mountain air.
    Luxury that regulates your nervous system, not overstimulates it.

  • A Curated, Intentional Circle (Not a Crowd)

    Depth over drama. Presence over performance. Women who are emotionally intelligent, grounded, self-led. Women you’ll want to stay connected to.

  • Science-Backed. Trauma-Aware. Heart-Led.

    Dr. Botsford blends evidence-based nervous system care with a grounded presence that makes women feel instantly safe.

  • Integration > Overwhelm

    No jam-packed schedule. No bouncing from session to session.
    Just space, breath, movement and warm conversation.

SIGNATURE EXPERIENCES

SIGNATURE EXPERIENCES

“Couldn’t I Just Book a Weekend Away Myself?”

You absolutely could.
But you won’t get the same transformation.

Because even on a solo weekend, you’re still carrying the mental load:

  • planning

  • deciding

  • managing

  • thinking

Here, the container is fully held for you.
Every detail is taken care of.
Your only job is to arrive and receive.

Women don’t join this retreat to get away.
They join because they’re ready to let go.

THIS
TRANSFORMATION
LASTS

This isn’t a retreat high that fades by Tuesday. It’s a nervous-system reset that stays with you for months.

You’ll leave with:

  • practical tools

  • a regulated baseline

  • clarity about what matters

  • friendships that feel like support, not obligation

  • confidence to set a new pace

  • a sense of safety your body hasn’t felt in years

This is long-term restoration — not temporary relief.

You’re in good hands

Dr. Briana Botsford isn’t leading a retreat.
She’s holding a container.

She’s the blend of science, steadiness and softness women rarely get access to.
Grounded. Wise. Trauma-aware.
Your nervous system trusts her instantly.

“You don’t need to escape your life.
You just need a space to reconnect with it.” — Dr. Botsford

Frequently
Asked Questions


A calm, clear place for everything your mind wants to know before your body says yes.

  • Yes. Most women arrive solo — and within the first hour, they feel like they’ve known each other for years. Homecoming attracts grounded, emotionally intelligent women who value deep connection, so you’ll feel held, not out of place.

  • You’ll be very comfortable here.

    This retreat honours spaciousness. You’ll never be put on the spot, expected to share, or asked to perform. You get to participate in a way that feels natural and supportive for your nervous system.

  • If you’re craving calm, connection and depth… yes.

    Homecoming is filled with thoughtful, self-aware women who are tired of surface-level everything. You’ll feel at home here.

  • Not at all. Movement is gentle, optional and adaptable. This is about grounding, not performance.

  • Expect warmth.
    Expect ease.
    Expect slow mornings, nourishing meals, meaningful conversations, and more quiet than you’re used to.
    Expect to feel cared for.
    Expect to feel like yourself again.

  • We’ll send you a simple, curated packing list before the retreat. Think cozy layers, comfortable clothing, a swimsuit for the spa, and anything that helps you feel grounded. No fancy outfits required — come as you are.

  • No. Homecoming is a luxury wellness experience guided by evidence-based nervous system support. There are no diagnoses, treatments or clinical services.

  • Because this is a retreat experience (not a medical appointment), insurance benefits don’t apply.

  • Not at all. Homecoming is intentionally spacious — more white space than structured time. You’ll never feel rushed or overstimulated. Everything is created with your nervous system in mind.

  • To honour the integrity and energy of this intimate experience — and to keep the container clear for everyone attending — all bookings are final. There are no refunds and no transfers.

    If you’d like extra peace of mind, we encourage you to purchase third-party travel insurance.

  • Yes. All guests will sign a simple participation and liability waiver before attending. It’s straightforward and designed to keep things clear and safe for everyone. If you have questions, we’re happy to walk you through it.

  • The resort offers alcohol, but the retreat itself is not centered around drinking. You’re welcome to choose what feels right for you, and the overall vibe remains calm and grounded.

  • Most women arrive Friday late afternoon/early evening and depart Sunday after lunch. You’ll receive a clear, easy-to-follow schedule after registering.

  • Because Homecoming is fully held, intimate and expertly guided — with luxury accommodations, nourishing meals, Nordic spa immersion and a carefully curated group of women.

    This isn’t just a weekend away. It’s an investment in how you show up for your life, your work, your relationships, and your own wellbeing.

  • That’s a very normal response for high-capacity women who aren’t used to choosing themselves.

    You’ll feel welcomed and supported from the moment you arrive. Most women feel their bodies soften within the first circle.
