Her newest project, the podact GOOD GRIEF: THE GAINS OF LOSS, explores mourning through Alex's distinctive and personal perspective.
An avid explorer of the human condition, Alex finds art in the everyday. She is a noted collector of vintage clothing and accessories, creating characters out of wardrobe, styling friends and clients out of her studio, Narnia. Her self- tended backyard garden is the inspiration for rustic, nourishing home-cooked meals. Her home, an eclectic, historic 1920's Mills Act-protected oasis, is the setting for elaborate Thanksgiving feasts of 50, black-tie cocktail soirees and casual karaoke nights. A legendary hostess, Alex can't wait to welcome you to a retreat that will reawaken your own passions and help bring creative vision to your own vision to life.

I’m a firm believer in changing your location to give your brain a boost when it comes to being involved in the creative world. Not everyone knows exactly what we want to do, or how to sharpen our skills in something we feel passionately about. I know first hand! When it comes to following pop culture and being a part of the conversation, sometimes you just need a few tips and tricks to feel good about the content you’re creating. Come join me and my great friend and actress Zina Wilde on this stunning, inspiring trip to Greece where we’ll spend time honing our skills. With daily workshops and a lot of fun in between, I can’t wait for us all to share this experience and come out feeling AMAZING!
Kelly Keegs is a dynamic media personality known for her passion for pop culture, relatable content and a love for wine and traveling. Starting with her own podcast and blog on the side while originally working in publishing, she quickly gained attention for her unique writing style and ability to connect with readers on a personal level.

As her online presence grew, Kelly ventured into other forms of media tackling a wide range of topics. Her quick wit and engaging conversations made her podcast a go-to source for entertainment and insightful discussions.
Back to Earth with
Katie and Zina
September 1–6, 2024
Katie Facada has taught Vinyasa yoga since 2016 (E-RYT 200 with advanced training in Biomechanics, Restorative, Pranayama, Prenatal and Reiki). In 2021, she started teaching The Class by Taryn Toomey, a cathartic workout experience that strengthens the body and mind, helps process emotion and fosters a deeper connection to self.
She is obsessed with intelligent sequencing, the power of a good playlist, and movement that brings us back to our breath, bodies, and the joy and aliveness that is always present in our hearts.
Katie moved to LA in 2022 and quickly became a regular at the city’s two most significant landmarks: the Venice Beach Dance Skate Plaza and Erewhon.
There is so much spaciousness to be found in utter simplicity. Sunsets. The calming rhythm of the sea. A daily movement practice. Healthy fats. Fresh fish. Deep, restful sleep. And of course, community.
Greece is the perfect place to connect back to the natural rhythms of the earth and our bodies. Join Katie and Zina in idyllic Halkidiki for six days to indulge in pristine, turquoise waters, charming villages and fresh, local food. We’ll get sweaty every day, nourish our bodies from the inside out, and return with a renewed sense of clarity and lightness of being.

Finding Freedom
May, 2023
Alchemy, tarot, eroticism, and meditation—an experience with Maria Soledad, shape shifter extraordinaire.
Practitioner of the evolutive tarot of Marsella restored by Alejandro Jodorowsky.
Trained by the Jodorowsky's in Metagenealogy, Pshycomagic and Evolutive tarot in the unique and once in a lifetime offered program, now that I did it for myself I can serve with this empowering and revealing tool of wisdom.
The purpose: break free and became the powerful true you and fulfill your unique and amazing mission. All seasoned by being a Mentor in manifestation meditation working with theta (brainwave) healing to upload new beliefs and manifest from that field of infinite Possibilities.
Fresh out the the oven trained in Tantra by Barbara Carrellas Training program.
Erotic Spirituality
A way of being based in seduction.
A day dive into your wildest erotism and feminine energy.
We have been conditioned with lots of restrictions. Feeling that we need to conform and fear our deepest desires for pleasure, abandonment to ecstasy and a freeing expression of our sexuality. These are the times to honor the primitive in us, the wilderness that longs for safety, for a space to be seen, fully received and fully enjoyed. And the way? The fierce feminine: only love, total surrender to be at service of pleasure and embracing it all from a place of spacious generosity. The ONLY way is vulnerability.
Its my truest crave to share with you technologies that will ignite and fire up your internal and natural magic, your ability to hold pleasure, to be present and available for ecstasy, orgasm and the electrifying joy that comes when you allow life, love, experiences, another and specially your body to take you there.
This day experience is for you to let go, dive deep, experience utter pleasure from your deepest core and emerge with the realization of how within you lies the most delicious, luscious self. All of this lies within so that you can be in a constant state of seduction with it all.
We will explore techniques through meditation, breath, movement, tantra technologies and channel specific archetypes of the Tarot to activate through psychomagic a total openness and surrender of the heart. Through pleasure we shed light! Through ecstasy we experience realization. Leaving you ready, in pure magnetism to receive and hold endless and conscious connection.
All of this richness will be enhanced with receiving your own personal tarot reading to focus also personally in your unique needs and how to arrive at your sexiest core for pure voluptuous joy!
