join us in byron bay
You are warmly invited to join us in the heart of Ewingsdale as we return for our second Wise Women Retreat deeper gathering created for women who are ready to step away from everyday life, reconnect with themselves and be held within the warmth of sisterhood. Whether you walk as Maiden, Mother, Maga or Crone, you are welcome here exactly as you are.
Over two nights, we will gather on 2.5 acres of beautiful land, surrounded by gardens, rainforest and open space. There will be time to swim, enjoy the waterslide, rest in the sauna and spa, experience the ice bath, wander the property or simply find a quiet place to breathe and be.
Throughout the retreat, you will be guided through women’s circles, yoga, meditation, sound healing, cacao ceremony, shamanic breathwork, womb-centred practices and meaningful creative experiences. You will also be nourished with wholesome vegetarian meals and given spacious time to reflect, connect and enjoy the retreat at your own pace.
This second gathering has been created with even more time to settle in, soften and receive. There is no pressure to be anything other than yourself. It is a chance to put down the roles you carry, listen to what your body and heart have been asking for, and remember how nourishing it can feel to be surrounded by women who are walking beside you.
Dunja and Meaghan are honoured to welcome you back into this growing circle. Together, we invite you to share in a retreat filled with connection, laughter, ritual, rest and the quiet magic that unfolds when women gather with intention.
All women, of all ages and stages, are welcome.
Come as you are. Leave feeling renewed, connected and deeply nourished.
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 the next two nights, 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.
