An invitation for women over 50 to embody their inner Queen—this journey rewires identity through strength, grace, and deep self-discovery beyond past roles.
As a participant in transformational work, you know that self-discovery is an ongoing process. The separation from our conditioned selves requires a sacred container, mirroring from others, and a long-term commitment to our freedom. There is no final destination where everything is figured out, and we can simply let life happen. Queen II has been created to guide you in deepening your integration of the Queen archetype, inviting you to step into a new level of empowerment and self-expression.
Sovereignty is a vital aspect of the Queen archetype. Bethany Webster, an advocate for healing the mother wound, describes sovereignty as claiming your inner authority, living from your inner truth, and being free from external influences. It means belonging to yourself, feeling strong and true, and embodying your integrity. Sovereignty is about breaking free from cultural and familial messages that have historically told women to be silent and small. It’s about overcoming fear and standing in your truth, regardless of the cost.
In today’s world, more than ever, we need the powerful, uncompromising voices of women. To achieve this, we must shed the inner shackles inherited from past generations that say our voices, bodies, and lives don’t matter.
This is the essence of QII: to identify and move through any fears that stand in the way of our full embodiment of the Queen, to feel strong and true, to listen more closely and trust the guidance of our bodies, and to shed any messaging that keeps us locked into our individual and collective conditioning.
We’ll use somatic techniques to connect with and learn to trust our bodies knowing, breathwork to unlock “frozen” places that block the free flow of necessary energy, and creative processes to invite in divine guidance and trust in the co-creation of our lives.
This is your invitation to step into your power, embody your sovereignty, continue your commitment to the unfolding of your being, and become the Queen you are meant to be. We look forward to welcoming you
I am still glowing from an incredible weekend of sisterhood and self-care. I so appreciate the gift of a space where it feels not only safe, but joyful to step beyond my usual boundaries and investigate the depths of my being. These spaces are all too rare in modern (American) life and your home, your embrace, is the rarest of gifts. I was able to access and “sit with” parts of myself I haven’t seen in quite some time. The love and healing I found inside myself are truly awesome, and this from someone who is no stranger to “doing the work”. I was particularly struck by the power of our somatic work in concert with our exploration of Sovereignty. Zanna really helped turn on the light in my soul. I can feel the power of my energy ball still today. Thank you for a gorgeous, deep, woo woo, once in a lifetime experience.
Returning to the farm a year after our first retreat was heartwarming, expanding, and strengthening. What a privilege to be with my Queen sisters again and with Leslie and Zanna, who guided our time and connection with skill, grace, and love. I cherished the time to connect more deeply with my Queen sisters and to reconnect with the Queen in myself.
I especially appreciated the exercises on somatic integration and breathwork, the relationship mapping, the guided meditations, and the soul cards to open new insights and knowing. I left feeling recentered and committed to living more fully as a Queen with sovereignty and in community. Thank you.
Once again, the farm (and Leslie’s thoughtful hosting) provided a peaceful, opening, and nurturing environment – with the welcome chance to be both inside and out. And again, food was A+!
Please let us know of your interest in participating, when we have 8 women, we’ll schedule at a time that works for everyone! The journey will begin at 2 p.m. on Friday and will conclude around 2 p.m. on Sunday, held at the Barn at Ogden Farm in Middletown VA.
Rewiring Together in the Shenandoah Valley in Virginia is dedicated to supporting humans in the full joyful expression of their essential selves in the second half of life.
