We aren’t meant to be living this disconnected-

from ourselves, from the natural world, from one another. Humans are tribal species, who thrive when able to rely on, learn from, and congregate with one another. It can be difficult to find true connection in our modern world. Ember and Solis was born out of authentic friendship and the innate longing to be in community with other women– off of the screen. When we say ‘women’, this includes trans and non binary women, and all folks outside of the gender binary. We believe in safe spaces for all.

Our offerings are dedicated to empowering women by providing transformative experiences to push you out of your comfort zone, foster personal growth, and ignite your adventurous spirit. We all feel an urge, deep down, to break free from the constraints of everyday life: a bucket list of places to visit, a new skill we’re dying to try, deep conversation with fresh faces. Our retreats offer a new route for women who share these dreams, who find themselves constantly waiting for others to have the time or resources to embark on new adventures. Life moves quickly! We’re ready to pack a bag and head off with you.

Through our carefully crafted itineraries, we take the pressure of planning off of you, and encourage women to unleash their true selves. You deserve to be cared for, just as you care for so many in your life. We take care of you, even down to the little details- such as a packing checklist! Think of these experiences as the supportive space where you can connect with your inner self and celebrate your individuality. The magic of each group changes and morphs based on who attends, and that’s the beauty of it! No two experiences are ever alike.

The hardest thing you have to do in this entire process….is show up. As an adult, one of the most difficult things to overcome is the fear of trying something new. We know it goes against everything in our nature to attend a trip with a group of humans who are complete strangers. It can take you back to holding your lunch tray on the first day of middle school, mustering up the courage to ask someone, ‘can I sit here?’

We’re here to encourage you to lean into this, be brave, and put yourself first! Once you make the decision, the experiences will create space for personal discovery and growth, self-confidence, and a sense of belonging in a world that often fails to prioritize women’s innate needs and aspirations. We are capable of doing this for one another!
