A group of seekers, visionaries, and heart-centered leaders gathered at the Spirit in the Desert Retreat Center in Carefree, Arizona. Over five sacred days, what began as a circle of individuals transformed into a beloved community—rooted in intention, reflection, and creative expression.

This transformative gathering—A Time to Deepen: Reimagine, Redefine, and Realign—became a living field of resonance, where song met silence, story met soul, and spirit met embodied leadership.

As both a presenter and participant, I experienced something beyond ordinary connection. I sensed—at a profound level—that we had co-created a healing vibration powerful enough to ripple far beyond the retreat. A vibration that whispers to our country and our world:

✨ Unity is not a dream—it is a direction.

We were honored to walk beside and learn from a circle of gifted facilitators and sacred witnesses:

🕊️ Dr. Charles Geddes, our convener and visionary guide, held the spiritual container with humility, brilliance, and boundless grace.

🎵 Marcy Baruch and Loren Hooker, whose soul-stirring music invited every heart into sacred alignment.

🌌 John Harold Moore, who introduced the profound modality of Family Constellations, helping us trace, witness, and transform inherited patterns.

🌀 Edward Miller, founder of SoulTranSync, who led a transformative session on Ho‘oponopono and an inner child healing workshop.

🌿 Dr. Lemuel W. Watson, whose session, Letting Go: Kissed by God, invited us to sit with uncertainty, examine our assumptions, and let go of what no longer serves. His question remains with us: “What is mine to do?”

Together, we practiced deep listening. We created sacred touchstones. We sang and cried and danced and laughed. We honored the Ancestors and imagined a future rooted in reciprocity, justice, and joy.

As we look ahead, we are thrilled to announce that we intend to reconvene from March 28–April 2, 2026, once again at the Spirit in the Desert Retreat Center. The work continues—not as repetition, but as return. A return to self. A return to purpose. A return to the collective sacred.

With deep gratitude and reverence,
