SUMMARY:When Women Write
DESCRIPTION:\n\n\n\nWhen Women Write\nA Weekend of Sacred Truths and Spiritual Memoir\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThere are stories within you that are waiting to be spoken.\nStories shaped by love, grief, survival, awakening, and transformation. Stories that hold the wisdom of who you’ve been—and the truth of who you are becoming.\nThis autumn, we invite you to step away from the noise of everyday life and enter a sacred space for reflection, healing, and soulful storytelling.\nWhen Women Write is a deeply nourishing weekend retreat where women gather to reconnect with themselves through spiritual memoir, guided writing, sacred reflection, and compassionate community.\nAs the season turns and the world softens into gold and crimson, fall reminds us that release is sacred. That transformation begins when we allow ourselves to pause, listen inward, and tell the truth.\nTogether, we will explore the stories we carry, the healing we seek, and the voice within us longing to be heard.\nThis is not about writing perfectly.\nIt is about writing honestly.\nYou do not need to be a writer to attend.\nYou only need a willingness to arrive fully as yourself.\n \nDuring This Weekend, You’ll Experience:\n\nGuided memoir and reflective writing practices\nSacred storytelling circles in a compassionate community of women\nMeditation and mindful movement\nQuiet moments for rest, reflection, and renewal\nOpportunities to reconnect with your voice, spirit, and inner wisdom\nSpace to release what no longer serves you and reclaim what has been waiting to emerge\n\nRegistration Includes:\n\nThree nights of lodging\nThree nourishing meals daily, including Organic, Halal, and Kosher options\nAll retreat materials\nOne-on-one sessions with Dr. Sabrina N’Diaye\nGuided workshops, storytelling circles, and spiritual reflection practices\n\nThis Retreat Is For Women Who:\n\nLong to explore their spiritual journey through writing\nDesire healing, clarity, and deeper self-understanding\nAre navigating transition, grief, awakening, or personal transformation\nCrave meaningful connection and sacred community\nWish to reconnect with their voice, creativity, and truth\n\nYour Story Matters\nSome truths can only be discovered once they are written.\nThis autumn, give yourself the gift of space, stillness, and sacred expression.\nCome write what your spirit has been longing to say.\n\n\n\nAbout Your Guide\nDr. Sabrina N’Diaye is a thought leader in integrating spirituality with psychotherapy. As a therapist, storyteller, and peacebuilder, she blends ancient spiritual practices with the latest scientific research and wisdom to guide others on their healing journeys.\nSabrina holds a PhD in Mind-Body Medicine from Saybrook University, where her research focused on the use of guided imagery as a healing tool for African-American women with chronic STIs. She is also the founder of The Heart Nest Center for Peace and Healing, where she lovingly serves women, couples, and small groups.\nA passionate storyteller, Dr. Sabrina is a strong advocate for the power of narrative in the healing process. She has supported countless seekers in shaping their spiritual memoirs into unique works of art.\nSome of her forgiveness journey, and those of her clients, are woven into her first book, Big Mama Speaks: Love Lessons from a Harlem River Swan.\n
