The Glass Walk is not just a feat of courage, it’s a mirror to the soul. Each careful step across the shards becomes a reclamation of trust, presence, and power. It’s about walking barefoot through your own stories of pain, fear, and “I’m not enough” and realising you are more than capable of holding yourself with grace through it all.

Arrow Breaking

Christine Wright

There comes a moment, when your soul whispers “enough.”

 

Enough playing small, enough dragging that dusty old baggage behind you like it’s a designer handbag.

 

In honour of ancient Fijian rites of passage, you’ll be called to break an arrow, yes, a real arrow, not in violence, but in valour.

 

This isn’t just a physical act; it’s a symbolic rupture, a visceral moment of choice. What you shatter isn’t just the arrow. it’s the illusion that you are anything less than powerful, divine, and destined for more.

 

The moment you break that arrow, you’re breaking through the old stories, the shoulds, and the shame, and stepping straight into your next level of sacred badassery. Prior to this, we drop into a beautiful intention setting ritual, where your heart gets to speak, your soul gets to lead, and your desires get to land. Through sacred breath, you’ll cast your intention witnessed, celebrated, and amplified by your sisters. We’ll close the circle with deep reverence, held in the arms of a powerful feminine collective who’ve stood with you, seen you, and sung you home. This isn’t just ceremony, this is initiation. This is legacy. This is you rising. And I’m here to guide you through this transformation. I can not wait to welcome you and start you on your path of the goddess within coming home.
