What is Muse?

Somewhere along the way, you got sensible.

The making, the playing, the singing in the kitchen, the writing for no reason, the part of you that was alive to the world, it went quiet. Not gone. Just waiting. Buried under being capable, being needed, being the one who holds it all together.

Muse is the day you dig it back up.

A one-day retreat and rite of passage for women ready to come alive again. Through storytelling, myth, movement and poetry, we'll explore new ways of listening, knowing, seeing and being, sacred gateways that lead us back to the heart.

Creativity is the heart of the day. Space to make, write, play. No experience required, and nothing to produce. This isn't about making good work. It's about restoring the aliveness that making brings. In love with life. In your own essence. Free from the inside.

The world awaits your magic.

The framework

Muse follows a rites of passage framework. A creative container, designed for transformation.

What is a rite of passage?

For thousands of years, rites of passage have guided people through critical transitions. They create space to drop beneath the noise and reconnect with what truly matters, space to be seen, heard, moved, cared for and encouraged. To celebrate your gifts and strengths. To transform and regenerate.

This is for you if:

• Your creative life has gone quiet
• You're curious about myth and poetry as practice
• You want to play again, without judgement
• You're ready to connect with your deep self, the parts that are original and true

What you'll experience

Rekindle your creative spark. The making, playing, imagining part of you, alive again.

Tap into your deep self. Beneath the noise, to what's original and true in you.

Laugh out loud. Real joy. Real play. The kind you forgot you were allowed.

Feel alive. In love with life. In your own essence and expression.

Belong. Find your people. A room full of women coming alive alongside you.
