A little under a month ago we gathered on the banks of the Orange River at the beautiful @norotshama_river_resort for our last women’s retreat in Namibia for 2026.

Living the dream 🥹 I never thought it was possible for me. I always heard people saying “Choose a job you love, and you will never have to work a day in your life.” and I never quite understood what that meant, and if that was even possible until now. Doing “the work”; learning, growing, and EVOLVING alongside these incredible people who choose to show up to these experiences and retreats with open arms and vulnerable hearts. I feel genuinely grateful, blessed and proud that I have created this life for myself and get to help and guide others along their paths. 🌀🪶 taken in Norotshama River Resort - Aussenkehr by @lilpearly

There is something so deeply powerful about this land. The stillness, the vastness, the raw and untouched beauty. Namibia holds a magic that is difficult to put into words, but impossible not to feel.

Forever grateful to hold space for transformation here🤎

Just monkeying around 🐒 Funny story… when I was living with my family in Umdloti, Kwazulu Natal during the covid lockdown the monkeys were constantly in our house and were only afraid of the dogs or the men folk and not women which really pissed me off so i tried to chase one away and instead it ended up showing his fangs, scratching his blue balls lunged at me… and in fact scared me away calling out for my mom like a little girl… haha #pickledonions #namibia #orangeriver taken in Norotshama River Resort - Aussenkehr by @lilpearly

I don’t think there’s anything more overstimulating and positively annoying than little flies trying to crawl into every crevice on my face. It’s a no from me. Note: you will now only find me with my very attractive hat that has a net on it so I can keep my peace and composure 🤦🏻‍♀️ #namibia #hiking #hikingdogsofinstagram #nature #fuckfliesthough taken in Namibia by @lilpearly

When we were digging up the old date tree that wasn’t growing well we figure out why… the power cable for our house was running directly under it! So she’s being taken to the greenhouse for some TLC before planting her in the land with the other Medjool date palms 🌴 taken in Norotshama River Resort - Aussenkehr by @lilpearly

If we already get days that reach above 50 degrees C I’m not sure I want to know what this El Niño summer has in store for us here in Namibia… lots of Orange River swims for sure! taken in Norotshama River Resort - Aussenkehr by @lilpearly

There comes a moment in a woman's life when the answers are no longer found in doing more.

They are found in creating space.

Space to soften.
Space to listen.
Space to hear what has been whispering beneath the noise.

The wise woman knows that clarity is not something she must chase. It reveals itself when she slows down enough to receive it.

Held by ancient landscapes, open skies, and the rhythms of the natural world, we gather in Namibia to remember.

To tend to the inner fire.
To reconnect with what matters.
To honour what is ending.
To welcome what is ready to emerge.

Beyond the doing and the striving, there is presence.

And beneath the expectations, responsibilities, and stories we carry, there is a deeper knowing.

Given space, it always finds its way home.

Namibia calls... 🏜️

Wide open landscapes.
Endless skies.
Ancient silence.

A place where the noise softens, the nervous system exhales, and you can finally hear yourself again.

If you’ve been longing for space, perhaps this is your sign.
