3/21/26: MONTHLY WOMEN'S CIRCLE with Whitney Schrader & Kathleen of Bridget’s Flame
LOCATION: Columbia, MD
TIME: 2-4PM
LOCATION: Columbia, MD
TIME: 2-4PM
Held each month in sacred sisterhood, this cozy, heart-centered gathering is a space for women to reconnect, reflect, and simply be. The intention is to create a safe, welcoming atmosphere where you can come as you are, feel at home, and be nourished.
We begin with a warm, organic, home-cooked meal lovingly prepared by Whitney so you can settle in, relax, and receive from the moment you arrive.
Each circle flows organically with the energy of the group. We check in and share what’s truly going on in our lives. Sometimes that sharing is simply about being listened to. There is deep medicine in being seen, heard, and having space gently held for you — without fixing, without advice, just presence.
It’s also a natural and conscious way of connecting and networking. If you have gifts, offerings, or projects you’d like to share, there is space for that. Women are welcome to co-host a future circle, and occasionally we offer raffles featuring locally made, handcrafted items from our community.
Music is always woven into our time together. Through singing, drumming, guitar, humming, and voice activation, we use sound as a tool for healing, connection, and nervous system regulation. Sometimes a woman feels called to a specific song she needs in that moment — and we sing or play it together.
This is not about performing. Many of us were told we “can’t sing.” This space is about setting ourselves free — returning to childlike wonder, expressing our unique and beautiful voices, and allowing ourselves to be heard without judgment. That alone is deeply healing.
Some months we sing more. Some months we talk more. We truly go with the flow and the needs of the group, allowing the space to unfold naturally.
Each gathering also includes sound healing, energy healing, and activation attunements to support restoration and alignment.
The exchange is $35–$75 (sliding scale).
Hosted at Whitney’s home in Columbia, Maryland.

4/2/26: FULL MOON CEREMONY WITH WHITNEY
LOCATION: Haven Hdg
130 Market St
Havre de Grace, MD 21078
LOCATION: Haven Hdg
130 Market St
Havre de Grace, MD 21078
Join us at Haven for a community Full Moon ceremony — a night of grounding, celebration, connection, and deep release in a beautiful, held sanctuary space.
This is a space where we gather together as humans in community — to listen and be listened to, to hold space for one another, and to reconnect with Mother Earth’s steady, nourishing energy.
Expect a blend of heartfelt sharing, intentional ritual, and engaging activities that invite you out of your head and back into your body — supported by music, sound, creativity, and presence.
April 2nd is the “Pink Moon,” and astrologically this Full Moon is in Libra — an energy that calls us back into balance, harmony, boundaries, and right relationship: with ourselves, with each other, and with the Earth.
What we’ll do (Haven-style):
🌕 Opening + Earth Grounding — breath, intention-setting, and anchoring into the sanctuary as a shared container
🌿 Full Moon Release Ritual — a guided letting-go ceremony to clear emotional weight, old stories, and energetic residue you’re ready to lay down
🎨 Engaging Partner Activities — gentle partnered practices using art + storytelling to reflect, witness, and be witnessed (no art skills needed — just a willing heart)
🫶 Community Sharing + Holding Space — we do sit and listen to each other here, with reverence: presence, compassion, and real human connection
🎶 Sound Healing + Vocal Activation — bowls, voice, humming/toning to soothe the nervous system and open the heart
🕯️ Anointing + Blessing (optional) — intention-infused blessing for clarity, protection, and integration
💫 Integration + Closing — grounding, reflection prompts, and a closing prayer to seal the work
Leave feeling: lighter, clearer, more connected — to yourself, to community, and to Mother Earth… with practical tools you can carry into the weeks ahead.
Bring: a journal, water, something cozy, and any small sacred item for the altar (optional).
Energy Exchange: $35 ( Venmo Whitney- @WHIT-NEE )
Spots are limited so text Whitney at (443) 812-0764 to sign up!

Starlight & Stone: Root & Embody Your Divine Light- A Women’s Mount Shasta Retreat
september 8–12, 2027
Wednesday-Sunday | 5 Days / 4 Nights
Mount Shasta, California
Hello Beautiful Soul! It is an honor to be here with you at this time & share this lifechanging experience with you.
This sacred women’s immersion is designed to help you deepen your connection with the living intelligence of the Earth, root more fully into your body, awaken your cosmic embodiment, & integrate ancestral healing, lineage gifts, sacred play, galactic remembrance, New Earth stewardship, & soul transformation.
Held in the powerful Divine Feminine field of Mount Shasta, this retreat is for the woman who is ready to deepen her embodiment, rise into the next expression of her medicine, regulate her nervous system, activate her gifts, & integrate the light work, shadow work, & soul remembrance she has already done.
The deeper medicine of this retreat is embodiment - allowing what you have learned, healed, remembered, studied, practiced, & experienced to become rooted in your body & lived through your life.
This is where the Grounded Earth Goddess meets the Star Priestess - where remembrance moves into the body, where wisdom becomes lived, & where the woman who has been carrying so much returns to her joy, her purpose, her inner child, & the living wisdom of the Earth.
The Heart of This Retreat
This retreat is rooted in reverence & reciprocity - allowing ourselves to receive from Mount Shasta while honoring the sacredness of the land through presence, gratitude, & care.
Held within the sacred Divine Feminine field of Mount Shasta, we will journey with the mountain, waters, vortexes, forests, & trails as living parts of the retreat container.
At the foundation of this retreat is deep root chakra work, nervous system healing, & embodiment - within the individual body & in conscious connection with Mount Shasta as the root chakra of the Earth.
Together, we will acknowledge old survival patterns, ancestral memory, fear, instability, & the places within us that long to feel truly held - while activating a deeper sense of safety, belonging, embodied power, & rooted support.
This work also honors the gifts of our ancestors - the wisdom, medicine, & strength carried through our lineages - so we can embody those gifts now & offer that healing forward to the seven generations ahead.
This is where remembrance becomes embodiment.
It is a bridge between the Earth & the stars. As we work with the land, waters, & mountain, we will also open to the Lemurian & Pleiadian family of light as support for our embodiment here on Earth.
The Retreat Experience
Everything within this retreat will unfold at a sacred pace & in rhythm with the group. The retreat will move with spaciousness, intention, & care so each woman has room to receive, integrate, rest, explore, & be fully present.
The flow will be customized according to the group, the energy of the day, & what is most supportive.
Over 5 days & 4 nights, we will gather in sisterhood for:
- Ceremony, sound healing, meditation, & shamanic journeywork
- Sacred site journeys through Mount Shasta’s waterfalls, vortexes, forests, trails, portal spaces, & sacred entrance points connected to Telos
- Nervous system healing, vagus nerve activations, deep integration, & embodiment
- Light body alignment, DNA activation, nervous system upgrades, & Divine Masculine / Divine Feminine integration
- Soul mission, soul purpose, gifts, leadership, & authentic expression
- Ancestral healing, lineage gift activation, root chakra healing, sacral chakra embodiment, abundance attunements, & healing our relationship with receiving
- Cellular repatterning, cellular remembrance, cellular telepathy, & ancestral blood & bone ceremony
- Practices to help you feel safer in the unknown, the unfamiliar, & the next chapter your soul is asking you to step into
- Sacred play, inner child healing, intuitive art, yoga, tai chi, qigong, & ecstatic dance
- Specially curated workshops, energetic attunements, goddess channeling, Pleiadian channeling, Lemurian alchemy, & galactic connection under the stars
- Connection with the I AM Presence, Christ Consciousness, Lemurian & Pleiadian dragon energy, fairy consciousness, the elementals, & the elemental guardians of the land
- Light language activations, toning, voice healing, & supportive practices to help you open, trust, & express your own light language
Who This Retreat Is For
This retreat is for the soul-led woman who feels called to Mount Shasta, nature, sacred waters, healing, ancestral healing, cosmic remembrance, & deeper embodiment.
It is for the medicine woman, healer, creative, artist, lightworker, teacher, guide, practitioner, visionary, soul-led entrepreneur, & woman who knows she is here for something deeper.
It is for the woman who feels connected to Lemuria, the Pleiades, the stars, Mother Earth, the sacred feminine, & the living intelligence of the land.
It is for the woman who loves the Earth deeply & wants to root her spiritual gifts into her body, her purpose, her leadership, her creativity, & her everyday life.
It is for the woman who has been doing the inner work & is ready to take her authentic embodiment to the next level.
It is for the woman ready to return to balance - honoring both flow & structure, intuition & action, receiving & creating, softness & strength.
It is for the woman ready to bring her spiritual gifts into grounded expression & live from a deeper place of truth, joy, courage, & alignment.
Why Now? Why This Retreat?
Because this is a threshold moment.
So many women can feel it in their bones - the old ways of surviving, shrinking, over-giving, & carrying everything alone are no longer enough.
This retreat is a sacred invitation to root deeper, rise clearer, reclaim your joy, & embody the medicine your soul came here to live.

Cosmic Embodiment, Sacred Play & Lemurian Alchemy
So much of our spiritual work lives in our minds until the body feels safe enough to carry it.
This retreat is about bringing your wisdom all the way down into your bones - so the classes, ceremonies, initiations, relationships, lifetimes, lessons, & inner work you have already moved through can become something you actually live.
Cosmic embodiment is not about floating away from the human experience. It is about letting your soul remembrance, intuitive gifts, & higher wisdom move through your body, voice, creativity, work, relationships, & daily life.
Sacred play will help us return to the part of ourselves that remembers through joy, movement, curiosity, laughter, art, & wonder.
Lemurian alchemy is woven throughout this retreat as a remembrance of heart-centered living, Earth wisdom, crystalline consciousness, sound, water, unity, & the sacred bridge between the Earth & the stars.
This is the deeper integration of the retreat: information becoming wisdom, remembrance becoming embodiment, & spiritual connection becoming lived truth.
