Unfrayed: Women's Leadership Reset in Scottsdale - What Is Yours to Carry?

For women who carry a lot: a half-day reset with real conversation and reflection, closing with a private crystal-bowl sound immersion.
About this Event

You're the person people count on. At work. At home. In your circle. You make the decisions, hold the details, and keep everything moving - even when your own capacity is running on empty.

Unfrayed is a focused half-day reset for women leaders, executives, entrepreneurs, and high-performing professionals who are functional but frayed - still delivering, still dependable, and quietly depleted.

What Is Yours to Carry? is our signature session - the only one this weekend that closes with a private crystal-bowl sound immersion led by Kristie of Soul Vibes. Words have carried you this far. Sound goes where words cannot: through vibration, the body is invited to release the tension it has learned to hold, even after the talking ends.

This is not a conference. It is not a networking event where you have to make small talk or prove your value. It is a small-group experience for 8-10 women at a private North Scottsdale estate, built around one outcome: you leave with more clarity and capacity than you came with.

Come exactly as you are. You do not need to be "on."

What this half-day gives you

• Room to step out of the mental swirl and think clearly again, without making small talk or managing anyone else's experience
• A real conversation with women who understand the weight of being the dependable one
• Guided reflection to name what is draining your capacity and what needs to change
• Space to clear your head, reconnect with your own voice, and leave with one meaningful next step
• A memorable Scottsdale close: a crystal-bowl sound immersion - the only session that includes it

The setting

Gather at a private North Scottsdale estate designed for slowing down—shaded patios, quiet corners, desert light, and room to simply breathe. The exact address will be shared with registered guests.

Good to know

• Please arrive 15 minutes early so you can settle in before we begin.
• Wear whatever helps you feel comfortable. Bring water and a light layer for the indoor/outdoor setting.
• Rideshare is encouraged; driveway parking is limited.
• You are never required to share. Participate in the way that feels right for you.
• Unfrayed is a facilitated personal and professional development experience. It is not therapy, medical care, or a substitute for either.

You'll leave with more than a nice afternoon

• A nervous-system reset practice you can use in the moment, the next time work follows you home
• Words for what you have been carrying - named on paper, so it stops running the background
• One meaningful next step you chose, not one someone assigned you
• A journal with your own thinking in it - yours to keep
• A 20-minute private integration call within two weeks of your session, to help the reset stick
