Reconnect with the part of yourself that intuitively knows what is right for you – your ageless wisdom – and get to know which parts of you need more recognition and understanding. Our programs are rooted in the ancient tradition of women’s work and circles, where we gather to see, hear, and support each other. In this space, you can explore the answers that feel right for you. Our programs create a space for women to know themselves, find their authentic voice & be a force of change in the world.
Woman Within Weekend
The Woman Within Weekend® is a two-and-a half-day experience for women. It provides a safe environment to explore how your life could be different and to fully know and live the power of who you are. It’s an opportunity to look at the life you’ve created and to make choices about what you want to sustain, what you want to deepen, and what you want to release.
How much does it cost? How long does it take?
The Weekend price is set by each Region and includes accommodation, meals, and curriculum materials. The cost for the Woman Within Eastern Weekend is 750$. The Weekend begins Friday at 6pm and typically ends around Sunday at 4pm. We know that for many women, the cost is a challenge and therefore many regions offer partial Scholarships.

What happens on the Weekend?
The Weekend offers a series of experiential activities, guided meditations and focused individual and group exercises. These processes have been carefully designed to help women find and access their inner power to support themselves in their daily lives.
BEGINNING | Friday night: Register and settle in. Unplug from the everyday world by removing your watch, makeup and jewelry. Meet your group for the Weekend. Begin by reflecting on yourself and your life.
GOING DEEPER | Saturday morning: Feel your emotions and inner conflicts. Touch upon what has brought you to the Weekend.
TRANSFORMING | Saturday afternoon: Take an experiential challenge to embody your authentic self. For instance, you may choose to step into your strength, break through barriers or experience your untapped potential or wisdom.
FINDING NEWNESS | Saturday night: Illuminate a new part of yourself. Be welcomed into the circle of women.
RELEASING | Sunday morning: Feel losses from your life – and choose to forgive. Recognize your connection to nature, humanity and your innate ability to create what you want in life. See what it’s like to be affirmed as a woman. Express your joy.
CELEBRATING | Sunday afternoon: Take part in a feast of affirmation, laughter and community. Learn about options for continuing your journey. Connect, acknowledge – and return to your life.
Who leads the Weekend?
The Woman Within Weekend® is led by a team that includes a Weekend Leader, 6-8 Facilitators, 3 logistical leaders and anywhere from 20-30 staff members. The facilitation team goes through hands-on training that typically takes 7 to 15 years. Throughout their training, Facilitators go through a vigorous feedback process and are required to complete several leadership trainings. Woman Within Facilitation protocols are continuously improved based on feedback from women around the world. To create a circle of support, there are typically more staff members than participants – and all staff have attended the Weekend.
