join us in byron bay

You are warmly invited to gather in the heart of Ewingsdale for a retreat dedicated to women in every stage of life. Whether you walk as Maiden, Mother, Maga, or Crone, this is a space where you will be honoured, seen, and embraced.

For two days and one night, we will journey together on sacred land surrounded by 2.5 acres of beauty, a place with its own mini rainforest, a shimmering pool with a slide to awaken your inner child, and healing waters in the sauna, ice bath, and spa.

Within this sanctuary, you’ll be held in women’s circles, guided through meditation and yoga, soothed by sound healing, nourished in cacao ceremony, and invited into womb healing and personal readings. Every offering is woven with love to help you reconnect with yourself, with nature, and with the wisdom of sisterhood.

This retreat is not about doing, but about softening, allowing yourself to be replenished, to rest, to be celebrated as the wise woman you are. Whether you choose a private room or shared space, you will leave carrying the medicine of connection, belonging, and deep nourishment.

Dunja and Meaghan, are honoured to hold this sacred space for you. Together, we welcome you to step into the circle, lay down what no longer serves, and remember the joy of walking this path together as women.

All women, of all ages and stages, are welcome.

Come as you are. Leave with your heart full.

The wise women story

Wise Women Circles & Retreats are sacred gatherings where women of all ages and stages of life come together to be seen, heard, and honoured. Rooted in the ancient tradition of women gathering in circle, these offerings create a sanctuary where you can soften, replenish, and reconnect to your inner wisdom.

Whether for a few hours in circle or over days of retreat, you will be held in practices that weave ceremony, meditation, movement, sound, and soulful conversation. These spaces invite you to release what no longer serves, awaken to your innate power, and remember the beauty of walking this path in sisterhood.

Each gathering is lovingly guided by Dunja and Meaghan, both devoted space holders and ceremonial guides. Together they create nurturing environments where women can honour their stories, embrace their wholeness, and fill their cups on every level of being.

Wise Women Circles & Retreats are an invitation to remember who you are, to celebrate the cycles of womanhood, and to return home to yourself, surrounded by the love and wisdom of women walking beside you.

What I have learned about Sisterhood by Nikita Gill

"Fill your life with women that empower you,

who help you believe in your magic

and help them to believe in their own exceptional power

and their incredible magic too.

Women who believe in each other can survive anything.

Women who believe in each other create armies

that will win kingdoms and wars.

Remember always,

the only people who can save us are each other,

the only people who can love us are ourselves."

about the property

Set on 2.5 acres of lush hinterland just minutes from the heart of Byron Bay, Glenbrook Estate is a private sanctuary designed for rest, connection and renewal. With its own pocket of rainforest with over 200 unique native trees, mature gardens, and open green spaces, the estate offers the perfect container for our Wise Women Retreat.

Here, you’ll find a resort-style pool with a slide (to awaken your playful inner child), an infrared sauna, ice bath, and hot tub for deep rejuvenation, and quiet walking paths through the trees where you can slow down and reconnect with nature. The property has been lovingly designed to feel both expansive and intimate, a place where you can be in circle together but also retreat into stillness when you need it.

Accommodation options include both private rooms (for those desiring solitude and reflection) and shared rooms (for those wishing to connect in sisterhood). All spaces are comfortable, light-filled, and surrounded by the calming energy of the land.

Whether you are resting on the deck by the pool, breathing deeply in the rainforest grove, or soaking under the stars at night, Glenbrook Estate holds you in beauty. It is more than a venue, it is part of the retreat itself, creating a safe and nurturing environment for ceremony, yoga, sound healing, womb work, and the simple joy of gathering as women.

what to expect

From the moment you arrive at Glenbrook Estate, you will be welcomed into a sanctuary designed for women to reconnect, replenish, and be held. Over two days and one night, the Wise Women Retreat offers a rhythm that weaves together ceremony, movement, rest, and joyful connection.

You can expect grounding practices such as yoga, meditation, and breathwork to gently guide you back into your body. You’ll be invited into women’s circles where stories are shared, wisdom is honoured, and each woman is seen and celebrated. Sacred ceremonies, including cacao, womb healing, and sound journeys, open the heart and invite you to release what no longer serves, while awakening deeper layers of your feminine power.

Between guided sessions, you’ll have spacious time to rest and play. Whether you feel called to wander the mini rainforest, journal by the gardens, soak in the hot tub, brave the ice bath, or simply float in the pool, you will find balance between stillness and joy. Wholesome, nourishing meals will be shared in community, bringing comfort and connection to body and soul.

This retreat is not about doing more, it is about softening, listening, and returning to yourself. It is a space to be with women of all ages and stages of life, to honour your journey, and to leave with your cup full, your heart open, and your spirit deeply renewed.
