  • Which one are you?? ⬆️ Alternate caption: sho Which one are you?? ⬆️ Alternate caption: show me you went to theatre school without telling me you went to theatre school. 🎭😂 In all seriousness, the reasons everyone joins us at Nurture vary greatly, but all who cross the Nurture threshold share a common thread of finding more than what they were originally looking for, in ways that surprise and delight. It’s hard to explain unless you’ve been, so I’m having fun with it. 😁 If you see yourself reflected in any of these, know you’ll be in good company when you join us, May 12-14th! Come spend a weekend with me, my good cooking and all of my alter egos xo #springretreat #canadianretreat #entrepreneurretreat #motherhoodisajob #ontarioretreat

    If I am any kind of witch, it’s the witch that k If I am any kind of witch, it’s the witch that knows what you need to eat when you are doing the deep work. Yesterday, at a retreat called ‘Tended’ by the powerful @glass.full & @creatinglight.studio, the plates came back so clean I barely had to wash them. I think it’s because I get an inner confirmation when a dish is right. A feeling of correctness in my body. An intuitive whir that tells me: this food will sit well in the belly and the soul for this work, with these people, who are building towards this goal. The meal was simple and hearty, inspired by Spring (fennel! leeks! citrus!) yet grounding (sourdough, toasted nuts, dates) because the women eating it were on retreat to tend to tender parts of themselves and that kind of work requires thoughtful, but beautiful, fuel. Sharing a wee behind the scenes peek of the love that goes into each prep step. Excited to be dreaming up more menus and witchy ways to feed you this Spring!

    I'm going to put my cup down here and sit for a mo I'm going to put my cup down here and sit for a moment with you with my bowl of Nurture oatmeal. ⁠ ⁠ Hi. ⁠ ⁠ I have a question for you.⁠ ⁠ When I answered it myself staring out the car window yesterday, I turned my head so my partner wouldn't see the tears streaming down my face, so I'm curious what your response will be.⁠ ⁠ How is your spirit? ⁠ ⁠ Not 'how are you doing/feeling/surviving', etc. but HOW IS YOUR SPIRIT. ⁠ ⁠ I am DOING well, I'm up to interesting things with fascinating people, I have a trip to PEI I'm looking forward to coming up, Spring is around the corner, I'm going to the gym regularly, eating healthily. ⁠ ⁠ I am FEELING not so great lately, due to some old trauma showing up as pesky inflammation and hormonal issues wreaking havoc on my body. I'm uncomfortably bloated daily and waiting for some long-anticipated CT scan results. ⁠ ⁠ I am SURVIVING lately like it's my full time job. I'm cooking with scraps to save on grocery costs, tempering my nervous system with YouTube yoga nidra, spending time outside for vitamin D, sleeping with my phone in another room, avoiding too much news. ⁠ ⁠ My spirit though? When I finally asked how it's doing, all I could do is cry with the kind of tears you could easily season a dish with. So much salt. ⁠ ⁠ My spirit has answers I've been avoiding listening to; it has serendipities it wants to guide me towards; it yearns to remind me of the size of galaxies, of the freedom found in perspective, of the siren call of my own creativity that can only take place when I touch the dark with curiosity and creativity instead of shame. ⁠ ⁠ Eight years ago, I started a creative retreat called Nurture because I needed a safe space to meet my spirit. I wanted to be around others who were committed to the same kind of work (play) and I wanted to eat really good food while we were 'going there.' ⁠ ⁠ I'm looking forward to the sanctuary of Nurture this May more than ever. Perhaps you need this safe space to play, too? If so, we have 5 spots left. Don't worry, you and your spirit can share. ;)⁠ ⁠ 📷️: @creatinglight.studio⁠ ⁠ #ontarioretreat #springretreat #entrepreneurretreat #retreat2023
