For Women of Purpose
By purpose I mean women who are willing to use their leadership, gifts, energy, vision, and dreams to evolve our planet and expand into their limitless selves.
Sometimes I call Women of Purpose by other names such as leaders, mother trees or queens. Not because we are better than anybody else, but because our energy and work has a huge impact on the planet–even we are “just” resting or meditating.
REGISTER NOWWhy I’m Hosting This Retreat
Just a few days ago I had a vision of a circle of women holding hands inside a ring of trees under the moonlight. Our hearts emanated white-blue light and each one of us had a unique frequency that harmonized and made us strong.
That’s it! I thought. That’s what I need to do next! Create a space where I and we can strengthen each other and stay in our hearts as we do our purpose.
But this vision is not how I started…
A couple of years ago I slowed down my very successful racial justice training and consultancy practice. I got the message that the trees in my backyard wanted to adopt me. I was shocked, embarrassed and wondered if I was going “crazy.” But little by little I began to relate to the trees in my yard and throughout the neighborhood. I used journaling as a way to communicate and even got a tent so I wouldn’t feel so exposed and weird communing with trees. I heard beautiful messages of love; how to deal with past trauma; how to stop overworking and overgiving, and more.
I got the courage to take a sabbatical and experiment with applying their advice. Now I walk around the land that I share with the trees (aka my yard) and I feel like part of a loving family. These trees have helped me transform guilt from mistakes I’ve made in my work and family into acceptance; I feel light and safe when leaning up against mamma maple; I feel the magnetism of the red maple Ancestor Tree; and my worries about cash flow disappear. I no longer feel gripped by fear about my children’s safety. I trust my decision when I say “No” or “Not now.” I trust me. I am enough. I have what I need. The wisdom is simple and powerful. I just had to slow down and open up my senses to perceive the love vibrating 24-7!
This Spring Equinox Virtual Retreat
is for you if you want to:
- Connect with nature in you and with nature as part of you
- Feel the strength and support of other women from different generations and races/ethnicities
- Hear your voice and see your contribution to evolution as sacred and necessary.
You're not alone, friend, you just have to step into the circle.
- If you have a business, project, dream, or land idea that feels a little scary
- Self-Doubt and Self Criticism
- Exhaustion from doing social justice out of guilt
- Loneliness
- Disconnected from nature and with yourself as part of nature
Grounded in Love...
I feel held and grounded in love... A beautiful commitment among us to practice unconditional self-acceptance so that our work together and in the world flows through with more ease and less effort.

Although it's only five days, we will expand time so that you feel deeply nourished, rested and connected to an energy source far larger than your single body.
You will emerge with a clear focus on next steps for your dream, project, business, land, etc. and new friends who support you.
Who is
Aminata Sol Plant Walker Fire Woman
Also known as Dr. Amanda Kemp, Aminata is the founder and leader of Racial Justice from the Heart and the author of the Amazon best-seller Stop Being Afraid: 5 Steps to Transform your Conversations about Racism. She had a spiritual awakening in 2021 when she received the message to stop everything and that the trees on her land wanted to adopt her.
Over the course of a two-year learning journey, she has been working with deeper truths underneath social justice, journeying with plants and fungi, and subsequently received her new names from an ancestor. She has since integrated the wisdom from trees into her podcast and community Mother Tree Network and continues her deep apprenticeship to the Earth and the feminine divine.
HOW DOES YOUR VIRTUAL RETREAT WORK?
The virtual retreat is FLEXIBLE so that you can participate from wherever you live and to whatever extent you can. We want you to do what works for you in this season of life. We welcome women who are caring for children and elders or who have health limitations that might prevent you from spending whole days and nights away from home.
All you need is a telephone or wifi connection; a journal, and the willingness to take a break from social media and commit to at least one suggested activity from the Retreat Guide each day!
We use high frequency poetry and music as medicine throughout the retreat and will provide you with downloads so you can access them again and again.
A small group of Women of Purpose will be with Aminata Sol on Spirit's Knob, land lovingly and respectfully treated in former Cherokee Territory. They will be holding the energetic center and spreading love for the virtual community which will include women from all over the globe.

Daily Themes & Schedule
We start each morning with a group call at 9-10am eastern when we do a guided meditation, gentle movement, and weave poetry and music into a brief discussion of the day's theme. You will also have the option to check-in with a small group.
After the call, you choose a Guided Activity that will help you connect more deeply with the theme and nature within you as a friend and guide. We will provide gentle step by step guidance for connecting with nature or you may simply follow your intuition.
We return each afternoon at 4pm eastern for a teaching about Astrology and your Life Purpose, Messages from the Trees about how to shift from winter to spring, release the past, and more. You will also have the opportunity to check in with a small group.
We recommend you watch sunrise or the sunset each day.
Day One: Planets, Preparation, and Intention Setting
This is a day for clearing your retreat space mentally and physically. You will create an indoor and/or outdoor altar that will hold your deepest intentions and possibilities for the retreat and your vision. Your Equinox Guide Book provides guidance on altar making. Our afternoon teaching will be on the energetic possibilities of the equinox and of the new planetary alignments in March.
Day Two: Water, Grieving, and Releasing the Past
A mostly silent day, you will be invited to visit and connect with a body of water such as a creek, ocean, brook, or lake near to you. You will have the opportunity to release mistakes, pain, and suffering related to your past.
Day Three: Woods & Stretching Outward
This is a day to connect with trees, forests, or woodsy places close to home. You may also choose to take part in an afternoon discussion of your astrological birth chart and life purpose.
Day Four: Activating our Energy The Equinox
On this day we will have a special evening session to celebrate the equinox and let our dreams, visions, businesses and Deepest Desires be seen and supported. We will step through the portal and commit to inspired action.
Day Five: Integration & Gratitude
On our final morning call, we will acknowledge the ground we have covered and create a field of gratitude and protection for our purposeful work going forward.
Even More Courage to Speak with Love...
Confidence, even more courage, to speak with love my truth and my truth is as it always was, but I'm not angry about it anymore...I believe through love and real effort we can really blossom into who we should be as a society, a community, as a world.

HOW DOES VIRTUAL RETREAT WORK?
You can do this retreat a zillion ways. You can stay home or take yourself to away to an air bnb near some woods or while you camp out in a tent.
You can do it alone or you can sign up with a woman of purpose friend.
You can spend the entire 5 days removed from others in your life or you can simply integrate ONE or more of the suggested activities into your daily life. We do ask that you refrain from social media and “news” as you calibrate your energy to attune to nature.
All you need is a wifi connection, a journal, and a willingness to meet yourself and nature. Do what works for you in this season of life. Children or eldercare or health issues are part of life. But commit to blocks of time for you!
Your retreat combines solo time, small group time, and whole group time.
Sample Daily Schedule
We start each morning with a group call at 9-10am eastern when we do a guided meditation, movement, and intention setting for the day together.
After the call, you choose ONE or more activities that will help you connect more deeply with nature in you and to nature as a friend and guide. We will provide gentle step by step guidance for connecting with nature but you always get to choose.
We gather again at 4-5:30pm eastern with a group call where you check-in and get to share your process, questions, and openings. You may also participate in a guided SisterMind where you take turns sharing and getting ideas about a challenge in your business, dream, project, or land vision. We will break to watch the sunset.
After dinner you may choose an activity or choose to connect with your someone from your small group.
