Magnetic: A Women-Only Immersive Experience

In just 2 days, you will bring back your magnetic energy, build an unshakable foundation of self-worth, and properly process years of suppressed pain.

No woman is broken. Most are just unmothered. And sometimes, even the women who seem to have it all: success, intelligence, ambition... find themselves face to face with an invisible wall.

They’ve read the books, gone to therapy, attended the retreats... But something is still missing. What's missing is YOU. Not the woman who is holding it all together because no one else will. Not the woman who’s high-achieving, high-functioning, but is profoundly neglected. Not the woman who holds space for everyone else but feels unseen.

The real you. The one who knew how to rest without guilt, laugh without filtering, and cry without apologizing. The one who was radiant without trying, before she believed she had to earn love by shrinking. The one who knows her worth.

It's time to bring her back.

"What toxic beauty culture does is it creates things that women should be afraid of. Because as soon as they get a woman afraid, she'll buy something and that's a multi-trillion dollar system. Skinny trend, big butts trend, boobs trend, thick eyebrows trend... So our bodies are a trend? That's why you feel like no matter how much you do, you are literally never pretty enough or skinny enough. It is overwhelming and it is the life of an average woman." — Dr. Amanda Hanson
