to refresh, reconnect with awe and reimagine your story.
Hi Friend,
I am thrilled to invite you into a journey to one of the most magical places I know. It’s an island that evokes wonder and offers simplicity. It’s a rare place that allows me to step away from the clutter of life and refresh my soul. For more than 30 years I have been sojourning to the island of Patmos. And it is my delight to share it with you and other incredible women.
If you are longing for more vistas and awe, consider joining us. If you desire a trip that allows space to breathe and think and enter in, consider joining us. If you are open to an opportunity to look with intention at what is etched into your narrative and shaping you this season of life, please consider joining us.
An 8-day curated journey awaits: with outdoor adventures, meaningful moments with inspiring and fearless women, and opportunities to remember and embrace your story. We know the power of a bonded community of women with purpose — and a sacred island that will speak to each of us. We’d love to share the week with you.
With great anticipation,

“The Island of Patmos is a place of power. It changes people. They come here for a brief summer visit and find themselves returning, year after year, for the rest of their lives. If you ask them why, they all give the same answer: they are responding to a force which they can recognize but not explain.
And which they find nowhere else.”
Experience an 8-day Journey to…

Reimagine your story
Your story matters. We believe it deeply.
Our stories invite us to find more meaning in the now and offer us clues for our path forward.
We will be delighting in our stories, being reminded of our gifts, and the power of being seen. We will approach our sessions with intention and levity, curiosity and creativity, reflection and laughter.
Reconnect with Awe
Patmos invites you into awe through the spectacular and the sacred.
The grand vistas and natural beauty can turn a simple walk into an encounter with wonder. We hope you reacquaint yourself with awe, quiet your soul, and find yourself seeing through new eyes.
Not only is the scenery epic, the history is holy. Patmos is a pilgrimage site for those desiring divine revelation, for it is here where John, the Apostle, wrote the book of Revelations.
Your curated Journey…
STARTS ON PATMOS…
Welcome! You are on the island! The trek to get here is an adventure! And we will be there when you step off the Blue Star Ferry. The magic begins!
EACH DAY HOLDS…
Waking up in your luxury villa overlooking enchanting Grikos Bay. We will gather each day in guided group sessions and adventures that allows the island to speak to you. Rest. Feast. Adventure.
THE JOURNEY IS YOURS…
You will have the opportunity to discover and inhabit the entire island of Patmos. You can choose the texture and pace of your days. While we offer optional group activities each day, there is plenty of space and time to choose what you need. We believe each day needs to breathe.
BRING YOUR WHOLE SELF WITH YOU…
We know you invest your energy, thoughts, and heart into others. That’s why we are dedicated to you being renewed - body, mind and spirit - during our time together.
We also hope you leave with ideas on how you can integrate your discoveries and rhythms of rest back into your non-island life.
National Geographic calls Grikos Bay of Patmos “one of the most beautiful bays in the world”.
Rest. Sleep. Renew…
Let’s talk accommodations.
Your home away from home will be the luxurious Theologos Houses Villas overlooking Grikos Bay. You will have your own bedroom in a shared villa. There are also a few private villas available for an additional cost.
Savor. Feast. Revel…
Let’s talk food.
You will begin each day with a 5-star breakfast buffet by the sea. We will gather as a group for our specially-curated Opening and Closing dinners. In addition, we will share group dinners throughout the week and recommend to you some of our favorite family-owned tavernas on the island.
Adventure. Motion. Stillness…
Let’s talk activities.
From a day sailing on the Aegean to walks through the cobblestone streets of Chora, to private alone time on a deserted beach, we hope you will be revived in both motion and stillness.
Step Into It!
Is this a good fit for you?
