Prioritizing self-care is vital to enjoying mental health and creating a fulfilling career.
Experience has shown us that many high-performing female leaders lack the time to focus and prioritize themselves.
Through our Summits, we support our members throughout the year in delivering business growth, high-performing teams, and well-being at work and personally.
-
We know that self-care is essential for impact-driven women because it prevents physical and emotional breakdowns and allows us to support our loved ones and teams with energy, joy, and purpose.
-
That is why we strategically provide a safe space and structure that allows women to set aside time to focus and prioritize their self-care. Together, we intentionally restore, recharge, and replenish our energy in an empowering community of peers.
-
As an employer, sponsoring talented female employees to attend the summits shows them that you care about their performance and well-being at work.
Join us! And sponsor the extraordinary women in your organization to attend.
Restore Your Energy
Let go and reconnect with your physical, intellectual, spiritual, and intuitive energy sources. Get fired up to lead, and feel renewed and excited about doing things outside the box and getting creative.
Recharge Your Vision
Reflect and recharge with a clear focus on the things that matter most at work and in life. Communicate your vision and purpose. Renew your passion for the values you bring as a leader within an empowering community of women.
Replenish Your Resources

Key Benefits of Owning Your Self-Care
from the comfort of your home...

“The Women's Self-Care Summit is a great way to pause and reflect on us as individuals and our progress. It helps us slow down to see what we can improve, become more aware, and plan ahead. I will continue to pause, which is important to clear our minds, get ideas, and find new opportunities. The Summit is a great opportunity to meet new people, see things with a different lens, become more self-aware, and work more efficiently.” Lori E., Oct. 20, '23

“The Women's Self-Care Summit was a beautiful session to connect with other women on this journey, to share our path, and to reconnect with ourselves. The connection to the group was so positive. To listen to everyone and to receive their messages was so powerful. I will ensure I make time for the IGS (Internal Guidance System) practice and continue to replenish myself daily. This is now non-negotiable. The WSCS is valuable time spent with Dr. Ginny and a tribe of heartfelt women. You will get what you are personally looking for. Ginny’s purposefully scheduled event will give you the tools and the gift of sharing a moment with the goddess within yourself.”

Oct '23 - 6th retreat!
“I enjoyed connecting with the other goddesses during the Women's Self-Care Summit. It was a great reminder that we are not alone. I always feel inspired by the Summits. I enjoyed learning the new practices of “STOP,” affirmations, and awareness with Chakra alignment. The “STOP” practice will be a game-changer! Going forward, I will remember to “be where your feet are”- to be present in the moment. I will add more meditation to my self-care routine to help me focus and recharge. I would describe the summit as a collection of amazing women connecting, learning, and being inspired by one another.”
Best practice shows that wellness programs, mental health resources, and encouraging healthy habits contribute to a more productive and engaged workforce.
- Employees who care for their physical and mental health are generally happier, more productive, and more engaged in their work.
- They tend to have fewer absences due to illness or stress-related issues, which means greater productivity and lower healthcare costs for the company as a whole.
- A company that prioritizes self-care and brain health can attract and retain top talent by creating a positive and supportive work culture.
- Bring the virtual Women's Self-Care Summit to your company and create a branded experience. Let's connect!
Burnout Impacts All of Us
According to the McKinsey Health Institute (MHI), burnout is often correlated with anxiety and depression, and is characterized by extreme tiredness, difficulty concentrating, and difficulty with cognitive and emotional processes.
A growing body of evidence shows how burnout leads to costly organizational issues such as attrition, high levels of employee turnover, absenteeism, lower engagement, and decreased productivity.
Employees cite a lack of social support at work as one of the sources of burnout, in addition to a toxic culture and unrealistic work demands.
The Mind, Body & Spirit Connection
According to the McKinsey Health Institute (MHI), burnout is characterized and often correlated with anxiety and depression, extreme tiredness, difficulty concentrating, and difficulty with cognitive and emotional processes. The MHI recommends addressing mental health first to improve health holistically. They learned that mental health impacts physical, social, and spiritual health. This finding indicates that we can't have good overall health without good mental health.
At the three Women's Self-Care Summit retreats, we create the space to intentionally practice self-care habits weekly from home in an empowering community of female peers, providing essential social support that promotes excellent mental, physical, and spiritual health and well-being.
What Can We All Do About It?
Experts, such as Shekhar Saxena, MD(1), agree. It's timely to talk about mental health and be thoughtful about providing the type of ongoing support our people need, with an emphasis on prevention, protection, and promotion of mental health.
It's meaningful and beneficial to care for our own mental health and provide our employees with guidance for self-care and for helping others. Dr. Saxena indicates we need to look at how to support mental health in the workplace in an environment that does not stigmatize.

"Before attending my first self-care retreat, I felt stuck in a spiral of burning myself out in an effort to be the perfect employee, daughter, friend, etc. After attending the summit, I feel it is critical to step back and prioritize my own self-care so that I can then show up in every area of my life as my whole self. Thank you, Coach Ginny! You are honestly a blessing in my life. I am so glad to have joined the retreat today and am forever grateful to you and all that you do."

“Before attending the self-care retreat, I felt as if I was unraveling. I was unfocused, disorganized, overwhelmed, and anxious. I was feeling misguided, low energy, and down about myself. After attending Ginny’s self-care retreat, I feel renewed and centered. I’m happier and have a sense of lightness. I feel more in control of my emotions and actions. I am focused on my next steps, I’m clearer about my goals and what’s most important to me. I feel safe, accepted, supported, and loved!”

“When I arrived at the Summit, I was a little anxious and excited about what the day would be like. I wasn’t sure if I could commit to not multitasking. I loved the meditations, which allowed me to really relax. What surprised me was the connecting themes among all the women. I feel invigorated and have a sense of joy that I was able to experience today. I need more days where I focus on my self-care on this level.”
"Before attending my fourth self-care retreat, I felt stressed, burnt out, and overwhelmed by work. After attending Ginny's self-care retreat, I feel calm, safe, heard, and I am not alone. I feel filled with love, peace, joy, and gratitude for Dr. Ginny and the wonderful 'godesses' at the retreat. I learned so much from you all!"

“Before attending the Summit 2023, I felt scattered, exhausted, and overwhelmed. I wanted to do everything for everyone in every direction. Now, I feel Invigorated, inspired, and creative. I have new ideas and tools for giving myself the space to calm and center. I can see the direction that truly speaks to me.
