Her retreats are recognized for being exceptionally well-structured while still feeling natural and easeful,  a rare balance that allows participants to truly settle in.

Sayulita has become a second home for Lori,  a place where her heart feels alive and deeply aligned with her work. Returning to host ALIGN & EMPOWER here feels like a continuation of something sacred.

The Story

In June 2024, Lori launched her first international retreat in Sayulita, a dream years in the making. The response was immediate and affirming.

From there, the work expanded naturally, each experience confirmed the same truth: women are craving spaces that are intentional, nourishing, and real.

In May 2025, Lori brought the Sayulita retreat fully to life at Poco a Poco Ranch, a jungle sanctuary on the Pacific coast. The experience was deeply immersive, heart-opening, and grounding, solidifying her commitment to this work.

These retreats are not escapes from life: they are returns to yourself.

Spaces where healing happens quietly.
Where movement feels joyful again.
Where conversations go deeper.
Where you are witnessed without needing to explain.

ALIGN & EMPOWER 2 

This retreat is the next evolution.

Crafted with intention, experience, and heart, ALIGN & EMPOWER 2  is designed to support your joy, your strength, and your remembering.

From nourishing meals and embodied practices to sacred ceremony, laughter, and quiet reflection you will be held every step of the way.

If you’ve been waiting…
If you’ve been circling yes…
If something in you knows it’s time…

I would love to welcome you.

With love,
Lori
