Imagine….
That you were given the opportunity to rewrite your past…
That you had an opportunity to initiate yourself into womanhood, alongside fellow sisters…
That you finally get to learn all of the things you should have learned when you started your period, but never did (and still haven’t!)...
Welcome to Initiation:
A Modern Woman's Rite of Passage Ritual
Join us for an intimate weekend nestled in a cozy red tent space, gathered in sisterhood, to gift yourself with the proper initiation into womanhood.
It is in this space that we come to heal and be healed. We come together in this way to bring a sense of sacredness and honoring to an important, yet overlooked time in one’s life.
Why a Rite of Passage?
Indigenous cultures across the globe have some form of a rite of a passage ritual to symbolize significant life events and changes. In the western world, we do not.
This can leave us feeling fragmented, disconnected, lost and confused because we are not symbolically recognizing the important transitions from one phase of life to the next
A rite of passage is defined as a ritual or experience that marks a major milestone or change in a person’s life. They remind us that we are constantly evolving and that life is a transformative journey.
Partaking in a rite of passage ritual puts us into sacred space. We enter into the non-verbal world of the heart. It is in this space that we communicate to the psyche that one phase of life has ended and another has begun.
Why Initiation?
Initiation was born from the need to integrate these ancient practices into our modern lives to bring a sense of integration and wholeness.
We will be recreating the rite of passage ritual that you were never given, calling forth all parts of yourself into the present moment.
It is an invitation to honor your transition from child to maiden and to properly initiate yourself into becoming a cyclical being, journeying through the seasons of womanhood.
We come together in community to support our fellow sisters. To witness and be witnessed. We are the change makers, here to heal ourselves for all of our past and future generations.
This ritual provides a way to connect with our past selves, healing the timeline of our personal story, to better equip us to pave the path forward. When we heal, the collective heals.

What’s the point in doing this if I’ve already been having a period for 10 years or more? Does it really make a difference now?We have the ability to heal and re-write any experience that we have had, or not had, in the past. Initiation is a powerful opportunity to do just that. Very few women have had a proper rite of passage experience into womanhood and it’s never too late to recreate your experience.
-
Can I still do this even if I don’t have a cycle due to menopause, hysterctomy, ammehnoreah, pregnancy, hormonal contraceptives, etc…"Yes! This weekend is designed to create a rite of passage experience that you would have had when you first started menstruating. Even if you aren’t actively having a period, you can still join us in rewriting your initiation into womanhood.

What if I don’t live in Utah or near Salt Lake City?You are welcome to book an Airbnb or hotel close by (we will give you the address). The Sole Nourish Sanctuary has space to accommodate 1-2 people. If this is of interest to you, contact me to discuss details. It would be in a shared space/kitchen.
-
What if I can’t attend the whole weekend?Due to the immersive nature of this workshop, it is most ideal if you can be present for the entire duration. If you feel that this is a full yes for you to attend, but there’s one part you can’t make, contact me and we will decide on a case by case basis.
