Feminary founder, Joanne Frederick, is a human by birth and a therapist by training. She teaches meditation and yoga through a trauma-informed lens. While on a SHE RECOVERS® retreat with a group of fabulous women in Mexico in November 2022, she set an intention to create The Feminary®: a community for women recovering and practicing the art and science of mythical feminine connection. She is thrilled beyond words and deeply grateful for the opportunity to co-host these retreats with the co-founder of SHE RECOVERS®, Dawn Nickel.

A fantastic week with a wonderful group of women led by a remarkable set of women. The focus on self-acceptance and feminine energy was so fulfilling and much needed. I cherish the time and hope to attend another equally amazing retreat soon. Thank you!!!

What a wonderful retreat!! The location, the accommodations, the food and most of all the people - the deep, heartfelt connections that will last a lifetime. Jo and Dawn are the best facilitators and always ensure all participants are feeling taken care of and having a grand time. I highly recommend. 💕

The Feminary retreat was an amazing experience. Jo and Dawn held beautiful space throughout the week. Payton’s yoga and movement sessions were just what I needed. The food was delicious and the villa was well cared for. I can’t wait to return.

I had the most wonderful time on this retreat hosted by Joanne. The villa is gorgeous and roomy, and came with a staff that was caring and hard working. There was just the right amount of downtime and scheduled activities to allow for group gatherings, and solo time. I Everything was well executed, with even the weather cooperating with us. I 100% plan on returning again....to spend 7 glorious days with like minded women...Why the heck wouldn't I?!?!?
