This 4-day retreat is for women who are in the midst of menopause or on the other side of it—and are ready to release the physical and emotional strain they quietly recognize is limiting their lives.
This stage of life is often seen as a defining transition—but for many women, it is only a surface expression of something deeper. Beneath it, there is a desire for renewal, clarity, and a more intentional way of living.
They are no longer satisfied with simply managing symptoms—they are ready to create the life they truly want.
Introducing
Inner Wise Woman
Retreat
A retreat for the mature woman who wants to move beyond the feelings of loss and anxiety that can come with an empty nest and
reinvent herself and her life.
A Women's Retreat for Personal & Uplifting Evolution
... from the inside out.
In this retreat, you will learn how to befriend yourself and move through this life transition in a state of contentment, instead of worrying when your grown child doesn’t answer your phone calls or tells you they have run out of their monthly allowance at college. You will find peace when reflecting how far you have come as a parent without lingering over guilt where you may have fallen short; you will release the feeling of being overwhelmed when pondering what’s next for you and gain clarity on what you want for this new chapter in your life.
Does this sound familiar?
Your child is graduating soon from high school, already in college, or has recently stepped into their next chapter. This morning, you opened the fridge and noticed something different—no familiar drinks, no signs of their daily presence. Part of you appreciates the simplicity… and part of you feels an unexpected quiet.
It’s not just about them moving forward. It’s about the space it creates within you.
A space that can feel unfamiliar, even empty at times—but also one that holds the potential for something entirely new.
There are fewer dishes to load in the dishwasher, which is one less chore for you to do… but at the same time, you feel empty-handed.
You pass by their silent bedrooms, gazing at their trophies stacked on the shelves, and your stomach sinks.
Fewer laundry baskets overstuffed with their sports gear, and there is no sign of shoe traffic in the hallway…great! Well, that’s not really the way it feels inside.
Being the family taxi driver got old over the years, but now when you drive by the baseball field where they practiced, you miss it.
Meanwhile…are they ok? You are uncertain about your teenager’s roommates, not knowing who their new friends are.
You worry if they get enough sleep, brush their teeth, eat healthy, and take their medication regularly. What if they get sick and you are so far away?
Are they struggling with their classwork…do they even show up for all of the classes you paid for?
Has this swirl of grief and anxiety left you overwhelmed and lost as to what should be your next personal chapter?
You have made them your priority for 18 years, but what is your priority now that they are gone? Should you go back to school? Start a business? Pursue a hobby? Get more involved in community service? Or should you lose those 20 pounds you often think about?
You are feeling guilty by putting yourself first and thinking you are a bad person if you prioritize yourself first.
You're Not Alone
All these feelings and thoughts are natural, and most moms experience them.
Do you remember when they were little, and their life depended on your presence?
Do you recall the joy of cheering them on as they took their first steps, scored their first soccer goal, camped with their friends, or played their trumpet solo for the entire school?
You loved every success, big or small, each step of their growth to their future independence.
And all of a sudden, they graduate from high school, and they are gone!
Even in a moment when your heart is full of parental pride, it can be challenging to navigate the unanticipated pressure you feel on two fronts–confronting the sudden void inside and trying to figure out your purpose in the world beyond being a mom.
Until now...
I am thrilled to introduce you to:
Inner Wise Woman
This is a 4-day immersive retreat for women who are navigating a profound life transition—whether stepping into or moving beyond menopause, redefining their identity after years of caregiving, or simply feeling called to evolve into a new chapter of life.
It is designed for the woman who is ready to move beyond lingering feelings of anxiety, loss, or uncertainty, and consciously reinvent herself with clarity, vitality, and purpose.
It’s a retreat that will help you understand why your particular worries creep up and overwhelm you, and learn how to ditch the way these worries show up for good.
You will be able to stop questioning your past performance as a parent. You will have the tools to create the best version of yourself as a mom of adult children, one that you will love. You will discover that it’s possible to move beyond your current sense of inner void that the empty nest can bring. In contrast to being stuck, you will be able to create new feelings of aliveness, expansion, motivation, and joy that will open up a gateway for you to reinvent yourself, create the life you want, and thrive on a higher level.
You will discover how to access and embody your Inner Wise Woman—the deepest, most grounded, intuitive part of yourself—and from that place, create the life you truly desire and step into the most aligned, expansive stage of your life.
What is the "Inner Wise Women" stage of life? It becomes clear when you look at the first two stages most people move through. The first stage is about embracing education, growth, and youthful exploration—discovering the world and your place in it. The second stage is about building—career, family, responsibilities, and creating a life on the outside.
But then something shifts.
The Inner Wise Woman stage is not about achieving more—it is about returning to yourself.
The Inner Wise Woman Stage of Life is about embodying wisdom, living in deep self-alignment, and allowing your life to become a meaningful expression of who you truly are—naturally creating a legacy that reflects truth, depth, and integrity.
I have created this retreat because I am a successful businesswoman and an empty-nester myself. I have two grown-up sons who left for college. I, too, was overwhelmed by feelings of loss and anxiety as they left home, lived their college life, served their missions overseas, got married as students, and kept anxiously waiting for green cards for their spouses.
Olga's Personal Journey
As someone who is a transformation coach, and studied and practiced yoga for over 35 years, I should be a chill empty-nester, right?
I'd be all set if yoga and meditation were all it took.
I value yoga practices along with the foundational lifestyle elements of nourishing food, plenty of water, and prioritizing quality sleep.
But…if these practices were all it took, I would have been the most chill empty-nester EVER. There’s more to living with true emotional health than what we do on our yoga mats, have on our plates, and when we go to bed. I suspect you know this, too, and have likely tried all of the above. Do they help? Of course. Is there more we can do to transform anxiety and the feeling of being overwhelmed? Absolutely…
I now live with a solid sense of who I am, trusting in my own potential and knowing what I want for myself. It’s taken some practice, showing up for myself, and making many small changes and commitments along the way.
And here’s what I know: this is possible for you, too. If you’ve had never-ending thoughts of what might go wrong with your adult children, wrestled with those feelings of nagging guilt that you “haven’t done enough,” and spent sleepless nights tossing and turning, wondering how to move on from being just another empty-nester to becoming a woman awake to life and living your full potential, then this course is absolutely for you.
The promise of a life without uncomfortable emotions? Not possible. But, they can be figured out.
I’m so glad you’re here.
Inner Wise Woman Retreat will help you tap into:
What Inner Wise Woman is NOT:
Each woman is unique and so is her source of inner emptiness and feelings of being overwhelmed. The retreat isn’t just another attempt to fix these two from the outside.
The retreat is extraordinary and revolutionary in its unique way to teach you about the art of self-mastery over your daily mood.
You will understand and handle inner emptiness from a lighter place and without fear or dread. However, the retreat is more than that. It is about creating a crystal-clear vision of what you want at this stage of your life and how to get it.
It’s about finding a skip in your step that you have missed for some time.
It will introduce you to the tools to ignite motivation, excitement, and confidence to rediscover yourself.
It’s a retreat of personal and uplifting evolution from the inside out.
Why is the retreat a great choice for a woman-leader who has become an empty-nester? Because I will use three extraordinary skills that I have mastered and practiced over the past 35 years combined as a transformation coach and a yoga therapist. I will use these unique skills to help you process any feelings of emptiness and move on in your dream life.

YOUR RETREAT HOME: WHAT TO EXPECT
Nestled in a serene, nature-filled retreat center just 1 hour and 10 minutes from Baltimore, this space offers the perfect environment to unplug, unwind, and reconnect with yourself. Imagine beautiful autumn colors, gorgeous nature paths, cozy sofas, and big windows!

LOCATION & SURROUNDINGS
––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––
Nestled in the quiet countryside of Knoxville, Maryland, this retreat is held at the base of the Blue Ridge Mountains, where forest, open sky, and the nearby Potomac River create a landscape that naturally slows you down and brings you back to yourself.
This is not a luxury resort—and it is not meant to be.
The retreat center is a lovingly restored family ranch, passed down and transformed into a space for meaningful gathering. From the outside, it is simple. Unpretentious. Real.
And the moment you walk in, you feel the difference.
Large windows open the space to nature. The rooms are comfortable and cozy. The energy is warm, grounded, and deeply human. You are welcomed not as a guest—but as part of the home.
You will be nourished with fresh, homemade meals. You will have space to breathe, to reflect, and to step away from the noise of everyday life. Nothing here is excessive—everything here is intentional.
Because this environment serves a purpose:
It allows you to soften.
It allows you to listen.
It allows your Inner Wise Woman to emerge.
Surrounded by miles of forest, mountain stillness, and expansive skies, you will find yourself naturally dropping beneath the surface—into clarity, truth, and a deeper connection with who you are becoming.
Come not for luxury.
Come for transformation.
