The Path to Enchantress Retreat, Ireland May 29, 2023 - June 2, 2023
The Path to Enchantress is based on Celtic lore with a modern-day twist. Here’s the backstory. Sitting in a glorious garden with brightly colored blooms greeting our every word. It was a celabatory day, my 50th birthday. A friend of mine got up, looked me square in the eye, and said, "Fifty is milestone birthday, you are now a crone, an old woman, your time is done." The comment felt gut-wrenching, fear, anger, and confusion overcame me, and I was left speechless. I felt like the cursed storybook princess I read as a child had come to life. It was in that moment that I new the life of a crone was not for me, and my enchantress started calling me. Beatrice (Baya) Rouzoul, founder of the Enchantress program, and one of the event facilitators.
Removing Old Ways to Meet the Enchantress You Truly Are
How many of you have been told you are too old by a friend, or family member who went on to recite a list of ridiculous things you can't do or be? Yes, your younger years are behind you, maybe motherhood is behind you, and you're now facing a monumental life change. The intention behind the retreat is to re-see these challenging times as new pathways to become the Enchantress you were meant to be.
“The Path to Enchantress is a breakthrough of banal patriarchal spells that teach women that we are no longer of value and that our time has come and gone when reaching a certain age ⏤ this is a false belief, one we will dispel during the retreat.” Carrie Kaufman, retreat facilitator.
