We will stay at a retreat center with views of beautiful vineyards and redwood trees. Interactive learning flows naturally alongside self-care, and time for reflection.
Burnout among perinatal professionals isn't just a personal challenge—it's a community health issue. When birth workers are depleted, families receive less than optimal care. By investing in your own well-being, you're truly investing in the families you serve. I call this the ripple effect.
Soulwise Community gatherings provide a sustainable model for integrating wellness into your practice and creating the support networks that keep our work viable over the long term.
We'll be staying together in the Ranch House, a beautiful two-story, Spanish-style brick home built in 1930. The house offers plenty of room to gather with the group or slip away for some quiet time.
This stunning house features 15 bedrooms and 15 bathrooms (all bathrooms are en-suite), comfortably accommodating our group with no more than two people per bedroom. Each bedroom includes its own private bathroom with a shower, ensuring privacy and convenience for all guests.
The home's common areas include a living room with a stone fireplace, a sun room, a library, a formal dining room, and a full kitchen. Outside, a large courtyard with a fire pit provides a beautiful gathering space. A labyrinth and swimming pool are just steps away, and multiple hiking trails surround the property.
We will enjoy our meals together in the dining hall - a 1 minute walk from the house.
