Where lasting change is embodied — not just understood.
She Rises, She Returns is a women’s Beltane retreat devoted to embodiment, initiation, and remembrance. Beltane is a fire festival — a time when life force, creativity, and desire rise from the earth — and this retreat honors that same movement within you. This is not about fixing yourself, but about reclaiming your aliveness, sensuality, power, and inner knowing in a way that is safe, grounded, and held in community.
This retreat is for women who feel the call to return to their bodies, intuition, and cyclical nature. Through a ceremonial container of breathwork, embodiment, ritual, and nervous-system safety, you are invited to rise without force and return without shame. The feminine does not emerge through pressure — she awakens through permission, presence, and remembrance.
Zanny is one of the most amazing, beautiful, and caring souls I’ve ever had the privilege of knowing. She helped me begin my healing journey three years ago, and I’ve been seeing her ever since. I’ve never been someone who sticks with a therapist long-term—I’ve always struggled to find the right fit—but with Zanny, I sincerely hope I never have to stop being her client.
She is nurturing, compassionate, insightful, and incredibly patient. The work we’ve done together to heal my inner child wounds is something I truly credit for the beautiful life I’m living today. She’s honestly a bit of a magician. Her wisdom is always thoughtful, grounded, and exactly what I need to hear. I recommend her to everyone I meet. She has truly changed my life for the better.
Zanny helps clients to heal their insecure attachment patterns and reconnect with and heal their inner child. She is a wonderfully supportive therapist. Highly recommend!
I’ve done a lot of breathwork, but Zanny’s session felt next level. The journaling, music, and her perfectly timed guidance helped me release deep emotions, feel tingling in my body, and experience a profound sense of worthiness. I witnessed this unraveling and then softening of ancestral beliefs about sacrifice. It was powerful, safe, and transformative. Will be back next month.
I’m still riding that high from your cozy breath work circle at the zen den.. that was seriously just what I needed to kick off this new year. Thank you for making everyone feel welcomed and safe. I feel like it was the perfect balance of connection and individual growth. It really makes me want to not only keep showing up for myself in that way, but also work with you 1on1. Huge mahalo for sharing your magic!
Your event yesterday was truly beautiful and inspiring. Thank you for creating such a safe place to be vulnerable and let all the feelings out. This was only my 2nd time doing breath work and I can’t wait to be back for more! I love getting to know you more.
Zanny is an powerful healer. She has helped me navigate relationship struggles in every single way. Her compassion and poignant questions always help me reflect on my inner direction and higher purpose. Her intuition is incredibly strong and I trust her implicitly. Zanny holds a powerful space of trust, support and love. In my Akashic Reading session, I was even able to clearly see the files of my lives and be drawn to exactly what I needed to know in that moment. Her energy is grounded and focused. She is incredibly wise and has guided me through the darkest parts of my relationship struggles and the darkest parts of my anxious attachment and abandonment wound. I have done all healing sessions that Zanny offers and all of them have been life changing!
Zanny has an extraordinary ability to make astrology feel both expansive and accessible. She breaks down cosmic patterns in a way that is clear, relatable, and easy to integrate into real life. Instead of feeling lost in complexity, you leave feeling oriented and empowered.
What I especially appreciate is how seamlessly she blends her therapeutic background into her astrological work. There is a groundedness and emotional attunement in the way she delivers insight. She holds space with care, weaving together mysticism and psychology in a way that feels balanced and deeply supportive.
If you’re looking for astrology that is insightful, compassionate, and rooted in both spiritual wisdom and real-world integration, Zanny offers a truly unique and thoughtful approach.
Zanny... Where do I even start. Her healing powers are unmatched not online in her powerful presents & intuitive spirit, but also, in her dedication towards practical educations consistently refining her tool kit practical methods. I have had the privilege of experiencing her Timeline Therapy rooted in hypnosis where only my subconscious had time answer. Unexpectedly it brought up powerful connections & memories from this life, past lives, and even from the womb as roots of several core emotions. She guided me through them in a space where I felt so safe to feel yet seamlessly brought back to the logical present day ever so smoothly. She is a highly intuitive and highly trained ANGEL, I highly reccomend.
Zanny creates a safe space to heal past traumas and begin healing. She helped me with insights to deep emotions and to release stuck patterns. I found my self esteem, self confidence, and self love by working with her.
