THE TRANSFORMATION
Reawakening to Pleasure
You've built a great life. It's time to start enjoying it.
Dissolve the Barriers
You'll receive three masterclasses (scroll down for details) to ensure that before you even arrive in Lisbon, you'll know exactly where you're stuck and what you need to make the shift.
On our first few days, we'll somatically release the shame and old agreements are robbing you of joy.
Embrace your Body
Rekindle your childlike wonder and find joy and ease within your body.
You'll be guided to a new level of freedom and flow within your body.
Build the community connections that will support you through the process of returning to yourself.
Enhance your Transformation
We'll conclude with group and individual integration processes to help you decide how to carry this transformation forward into your life.
Even after you return, you'll have a post-retreat workbook and online community to support you as you implement your next level into your daily life.
THE DETAILS
Location and Sample Schedule
The House
Smell the bougainvillea, breathe the salt air, walk along the beach, and soak up the Portuguese sun. This location delights the senses while giving you space to reflect quietly or join in group discussion on the lanai.
All meals are prepared on site, using local ingredients and flavor combinations designed to inspire and improve your health. All activities (with the exception of beach excursions) are on the grounds, in the privacy of the main room or in the ample fenced yard.
The site is deliberately intimate, as is this retreat. We're doing deep work, and creating a safe container for transformation.

A UNIQUE EXPERIENCE
Why This Retreat?
Lasting Transformation
The in-person retreat is a 6-day experience, but the pre-retreat masterclasses start in April (replays available) and the post-retreat workbook and group chat continue the transformation long after you've landed at home.
Transformational Modalities
Your hosts are not only movement teachers. Dr. Jesse Glaze is trained in somatic healing, UnShaming, process work, and hypnosis. These modalities create rapid, lasting transformations by bypassing the conscious mind and rewiring behavior at the source.
Community Building
After the retreat, you will receive ongoing support from the community we create together. Women rise when we release shame and connect from our truest selves. Maintaining these connections after the retreat will carry the magic we create into your daily life.

Jesse's wealth of knowledge is amazing! I would recommend her to anyone who has gone through any type of trauma. She creates such a safe space. I would not hesitate to join another of her groups!

IMPORTANT DETAILS
Sensual Satisfaction is NOT
A sexual experience - all activities are clothed. We will move, eat, play, and make art together, but none of the group activities or workshops involve sexual activity.
A relaxing vacation--this is a transformational experience. If you're just looking to kick back, this experience is not for you.
A first step in trauma healing - if you're new to healing your trauma, I highly recommend booking a 1:1 prior to signing up for this retreat. This space will be trauma informed, and we will dissolve old beliefs and agreements left by the trauma of patriarchal systems and purity culture. But individual work should absolutely precede diving in to this level of group transformation.

LAYING THE FOUNDATION
Sensual Satisfaction Masterclass Series
Workbook included
Live Q&A (w/ anonymous option)
Keep replays forever
Included in retreat price
Let's lay the groundwork for your most satisfying year yet. Because satisfied, connected women are ungovernable.
This masterclass series is the pre-game for the retreat--it lays the foundation for the transformation we're creating.
Each masterclass is also an amazing stand-alone, information-packed experiences to completely shift your experience with libido, pleasure, and self-love.
Attend one, two, or all three. Retreat attendees will be gifted the whole series (or refunded the series on their retreat tuition).
Why "pre-game"? Because the retreat is a somatic experience. It is embodied, present, active, artistic, and fully alive. The education you receive there will not be information, it will be experiential.
Dancing in the moonlight. Swimming in the sea. Making art. Moving through grief and into forgiveness. Returning to your the miracle of your body.
So we're covering the essential information before you even get to Lisbon.
Sensual Satisfaction Masterclass Series
Each of these three 90-minute live masterclasses will lay the foundation for more pleasure. Half educational, half practical, each webinar will demystify an aspect of your body's pleasure and give you tools you can start using right away (and keep using forever).
