Each gathering is a portal into a world where pleasure, community, and transformation blend seamlessly.

This isn’t a productivity bootcamp. It’s not a self-help summit. And it’s definitely not your average “wellness retreat.” Symposium is something else. It’s a multinight immersive experience for the soul-curious; designed to help you reconnect with your own inner compass through ritual, rest, movement, and myth.

A retreat from the world to return to yourself

What is Symposium?

It’s a gathering. It’s a ceremony.
It’s a choose-your-own-adventure for your spirit; a retreat built like a story, where you become the main character.

Held deep in the redwoods of Northern California, Symposium is a retreat where presence is the priority.
Where the sacred shows up in conversation, creativity, stillness, laughter, and story.

You’ll be guided through a series of symbolic, soul-tugging invitations;
each one crafted to help you see your life through a new lens.
You might find a handwritten note on your pillow.
You might cry at the exact right moment.
You might remember something you didn’t even know you’d forgotten.

This is a space where we don’t fix.
We remember.

If you’ve followed me for a while, you know I’ve spent the last decade designing retreats, workshops, and experiences that help people meet themselves with more clarity, depth, and truth.

Symposium is the most immersive, intentional, and creatively-designed container I’ve ever built.

It’s not just a retreat, it’s a living story. A myth you get to walk. A sacred world with its own lore, rituals, symbols, and arc.

Every guest becomes the main character of their own journey. You’ll be invited into a narrative structure that mirrors the shape of real transformation; complete with archetypes to explore, side quests to follow, and symbolic thresholds to cross.

This isn’t passive. This is participatory. You’re not here to watch someone else’s show. You’re here to step into your own becoming.

There are clues to uncover. Moments to unravel. And a version of you waiting to be remembered.

At Symposium, you don’t need to perform or prove anything. You get to be exactly who you are; sacred, messy, brilliant, becoming.
This isn’t a place to be fixed. It’s a place to return to yourself.

This isn’t a vacation. It’s a portal.
And you’re the one holding the key.
