ABOUT:
You don’t need another escape.
You need a reset from the inside out.
This isn’t a retreat for women who want to “take a break.”
It’s for the woman who’s silently spiralling behind the scenes—high-functioning, burned out, and tired of doing everything right but still feeling off.
You’re outwardly capable but inwardly overwhelmed.
You’re emotionally exhausted, over-functioning in every area of your life, and relying on just-one-more-glass-of-wine or the next getaway to numb the noise.
You don’t need more mindfulness tips.
You need a space to unravel—and remember who you are underneath the pressure.
This isn’t about “just doing the work”
It’s about releasing what no longer fits and making space for the life you actually want.
Throughout the day, we’ll use a powerful combination of practices to help you release emotional buildup, reconnect with your body, and restore your nervous system. You’ll walk away feeling clearer, more grounded, and back in your power.
Modalities included on The Release & regulate Retreat
The Release & Regulate Retreat includes a powerful combination of modalities that can provide deep release, healing, clarity, insight and shifts within. These include meditation, breathwork, intuition development exercises, group mediumship sessions, inner child work, embodiment + co-creation.
Intuitive coaching
Laurie channels personalized messages to help you break the cycles keeping you stuck. These sessions are raw, real, and often exactly what you didn’t know you needed to hear.
Somatic release practices
To move the emotional backlog you’ve been carrying and finally exhale. Think: sacred rage release, guided breath journeys, and embodied release that don’t require words—just your presence.
Inner Child & Shadow Work
You’ve done the therapy. This helps you integrate it. We’ll explore the parts of you still operating from outdated stories—and give them space to shift.
This retreat is for you if:
You're the one who holds it all together
You’re tired of being “the strong one” and silently unraveling behind the scenes.
You've mastered the art of overthinking...
You want to stop spiraling in your head and start feeling grounded in your body.
You're done waiting until "when this happens"
You’re done outsourcing your peace to wine, work, or the next trip.
WHAT YOU’LL WALK AWAY WITH:
- A nervous system that feels more regulated—so you can breathe again.
- Emotional release that doesn’t require talking it to death.
- Greater clarity on what’s next and the groundedness to pursue it.
- Insight into the patterns keeping you stuck—and how to finally shift them.
- The feeling of being held—for real.
- Boosting of self-esteem, confidence & feelings of empowerment

WHAT TO EXPECT
About the Day:
This retreat is a guided reset for the woman who’s tired of holding it all together.
It’s a space to stop over-functioning, overthinking, and over-performing—and finally drop into what your body and soul have been trying to tell you.
You’ll be led through the exact modalities that helped Laurie break cycles of burnout, emotional suppression, and self-abandonment. But there’s no expectation to share or show up in a certain way. You’re in control of your own depth. You can stay quiet, go inward, or fully participate—whatever feels safest for you.
Every emotion is welcome here. Whether you’re carrying grief, anger, confusion, or nothing you can quite name, you won’t be asked to make it make sense. This space is built to hold the parts of you you usually hide—the ones that are tired of being managed.
If you’re done living for everyone but yourself, and you’re ready to reconnect with your own truth—this day is for you.

Laurie Oakes
Her journey to find answers about spirituality and life outside of the physical body began at a young age. She found herself questioning her soul’s purpose, following her intuition, and receiving messages and “inner knowings” as young as she can remember.
Today, she shares her wisdom through various platforms, including workshops, retreats, and online courses. Her teachings empower individuals to awaken their spiritual potential, find inner peace, and live authentically.
Laurie gently guides her clients into letting go of the trauma and that which no longer serves them and empowers them with channelled guidance on their journey of personal growth and spiritual exploration.
She believes in the inherent divinity within each person and strives to help others discover their own inner truth and connection to their Creator.
