Awakening Woman
A Sacred Initiation of Embodied Wisdom - A Transformational Retreat For Women
November 5th-9th 2025
Sedona Mago Retreat center | sedona, Arizona
There comes a moment when something inside you begins to stir.
A knowing.
A longing.
A call to return to yourself in a deeper, more expansive way.
For some, it begins with the ache to shed old patterns - the fear, the anxiety, the ways you’ve learned to stay small or shape-shift.
For others, it begins with the desire to root even more deeply into the wisdom they’ve already uncovered.
To let go of the old scaffolding.
To expand their capacity.
To meet themselves in the next layer.
To allow for death and rebirth
This retreat is for both.
It’s for the woman who is awakening—and the woman who’s been walking this path and is ready to go deeper. It’s a space to be witnessed. To be seen. To breathe through what’s heavy and come home to what’s real.
Over the course of this ceremonial weekend, you’ll be held in a potent, heart-centered container where the breath becomes your guide, the body becomes your teacher, and every part of you - especially the ones that feel too much or too messy - is welcome.
Through the transformational practice of Shamanic Breathwork, circle, and ceremony, we’ll work with what’s ready to be released and reclaimed.
you’ll meet what’s been buried beneath codependency, perfectionism, and self-abandonment, and you’ll open to the wisdom that’s been waiting underneath it all.
COME HOME TO YOURSELF AND STEP INTO YOUR POWER
It’s not about fixing.
It’s about remembering and embodying who you are when you stop holding it all together for everyone else.
You’ll be supported in transforming fear, self-doubt, limiting beliefs and old patterns that no longer serve. You will anchor into your own knowing, and walk forward with clarity, softness, and strength.
This retreat is for the woman standing at the edge.
The woman who knows it’s time.
Whether you're navigating a major life transition, deepening your healing work, or simply feeling the sacred nudge to reconnect, you’ll be held here.

✧ MEET YOUR GUIDE ✧
Marisa La Fata is a trauma-informed healer, certified Shamanic Breathwork facilitator, and transformation guide devoted to helping women alchemize fear and self-abandonment so they can reclaim trust in themselves and their path.
She brings together ritual, ceremony, parts work, shamanic breathwork, and intuitive guidance to support deep emotional healing and personal empowerment. With 17 years of lived experience in recovery from addiction and codependency, Marisa’s path has been one of turning toward the shadows, meeting the truth of her story, and choosing healing again and again.
Here’s what she’s come to know:
You are not broken.
You don’t need to be fixed.
You just need to know you are capable of walking through the fires of transformation.
Marisa offers spaces that are honest, brave, and compassionate—where nothing needs to be hidden and everything is welcome.
No spiritual or emotional bypassing. No performing. Just breath, truth, and the courage to go deeper.
Her work is deeply rooted in the Toltec path as taught by the Ruiz family, the shamanic wisdom of Linda Star Wolf, and decades of recovery-based models of healing.
