This is no ordinary retreat. It’s a pilgrimage to your becoming.
A 5-night transformational experience in Ireland — May 15–20, 2026 — for the leaders, healers, mothers and visionary women who are ready to awaken their deepest life force, devotion, pleasure, and creative power.
Here is the iconic landscape and luxury venue that will hold us at The Cliffs of Moher
You’re not here by accident.
It’s easy to move through life carrying more than anyone sees.
To be the one who holds it together —
the family, the work, the business, the vision, the emotional field. To be the steady presence others lean on while rarely being held yourself.
You are the medicine.
You are the wisdom.
But wisdom requires tending.
Magic happens when you finally put it all down
and allow yourself to be held.
This is for the woman who is ready to release the invisible burdens — the quiet self-sacrifice, the subtle self-betrayal, the habit of prioritizing everyone else at the cost of herself.
This is an initiation into a version of you
who no longer abandons her body, her truth, or her desire in order to be needed, liked, or “good.”
You were never meant to shrink.
You were always meant to rise.
We don’t design vacations.
We design initiations.
Amara Muse experiences are not meant to be a simple reset.
They’re designed to change you on a cellular level — igniting your vital life force, re-patterning your nervous system for capacity, reconnecting you with your pleasure and power and activating your destiny.
This week is for the woman who:
• Wants more life force, not just rest
• Craves deep connection that only in-person experience can create
• Is ready to release ancestral and personal wounding
• Is done accommodating herself to the world
A Journey From Release → Rebirth
This retreat includes a curated blend of experiences designed to open every layer of your being:
• Opening & closing ceremonies that anchor transformation
• Daily movement + somatic work that rewires your nervous system
• Emotional alchemy rituals for grief, rage, and joy
• Yoga & embodiment classes with panoramic ocean views
• Sacred visit to St. Brigid’s Well with ceremony
• A night of dancing with a live Irish band
• Daily nourishing brunch + dinners with community meals
• Hot tub, ocean-view sauna, herbal steam room & quiet reflection spaces
• One day outing to explore historic villages
This is more than change —
it’s a rebirth that ripples into every area of your life.
What our Muses have to say…
“I attended the Amara Muse retreat last May. These ladies and their magic! Their energy and knowledge calm me. They are food for my soul. I have practiced yoga for thirty years but never felt truly at peace until I attended their retreat. Since their retreat, I have transformed my life.”
-Denise
I thought I was going away for a weekend to relax and unwind from everyday life, with some yoga and self-reflection sprinkled in. I was slightly nervous for the unknown of it all. Let me tell you, what actually transpired this weekend was nothing short of magic. Fucking MAGIC! This was one of the best experiences of my life and I can't wait to sign up for the next one!
-Brynn
This experience cracked me open to embrace pleasure not as an indulgence but as a powerful path to wholeness. For anyone seeking to reclaim her radiance, I can't recommend this retreat enough. It's an investment in your deepest, most vibrant self.
-Julia
Why This Retreat Creates Lasting Change
This week isn’t about inspiration — it’s about embodiment.
• The land shapes you — Ireland’s ancestral feminine landscape holds deep medicine.
• In-person ceremony bypasses avoidance and accelerates transformation.
• Somatic and emotional alchemy work with the nervous system, not around it.
• Joy, pleasure, laughter, and tearful release all rewire the body’s default patterns.
This is deep work that ripples out forever.
Meet Your Guides
Held by Women Who are Devoted to the Work
The Wise Woman Retreat is guided by Lauren Lammly and Samantha Jo — long-time collaborators, initiators, and space holders who have been walking female leaders through embodied transformation for over a decade.
Their work weaves yoga, somatic wisdom, ceremony, ritual, movement, emotional alchemy, and devotional presence into experiences that are both exquisitely curated and profoundly potent. Women don’t come to be fixed — they come to remember who they are and unlock even more of their power.
Lauren and Samantha Jo are known for their rare ability to hold deep, multi-layered space:
where grief and joy can coexist,
where power softens into presence,
and where strangers become sisters with astonishing speed.
In their care, women feel safe enough to put it all down — the roles, the responsibilities, the invisible labor —
and brave enough to rise into the next expression of themselves.
This is leadership rooted in lived experience.
Wisdom earned through devotion.
And a field that invites you to soften, open, and expand.
Amara Muse is the devotional body of work through which Lauren and Samantha Jo create transformational retreats, ceremonies, and initiations for women ready to live with more pleasure, presence, and sovereignty.
Each experience is intentionally designed to ripple far beyond the container — into your relationships, your leadership, your creativity, and the way you tend to your life.
This retreat is not a moment.
It is a threshold.
This is for Women who:
• Feel called to something deeper than strategy
• Are ready to heal the witch wound and turn up their magic
• Have done the work and feel ready for the next layer
• Want more embodied aliveness, pleasure, and connection
• Know they’re at the edge of their next expansion
And because of the depth, it’s not for everyone —
It’s for the woman feels the call and decides to make it happen.

Lauren and Samantha Jo are the most generous retreat hosts and spiritual guides. In less than 48 hours they transformed a group of strangers into a group of sisters! Because of their vision and curated programming, we all felt equally seen, supported, connected and powerful. Their unique abilities to create a multi- dimensional experience and hold space for multiple women at once is a gift that not only has a profound impact on the women at the retreat, but no doubt goes on to influence each woman's families, friends, and communities - Lauren and Samantha Jo are catalysts for real, lasting change.
-Lindsey
“Return of The Muse found me when I really needed to find myself again. The experience challenged me to get out of my comfort zone, join a shared experience in a supportive space and re-ignite powerful connections with others. The community aspect of women gathering is magical. The integration of yoga movement every day helped shift focus into my body in a spiritual way. Samantha and Lauren are so present in their teachings and shared so much wisdom and inspiration with their work. I would recommend this retreat to any woman who is looking to dive deeper within and outwards and uncover new layers of themselves to live more freely.”
