Rewriting Power: Claiming Your Quiet Authority A 7-Day Retreat for Midlife Women in Freelance Medical Writing and CME

Rewriting Power: Claiming Your Quiet Authority is a 7-day restorative, body-led retreat designed for midlife freelance medical and science writers who are ready to reconnect with their wisdom, reclaim their value, and lead without hustle. This experience offers a spacious blend of yoga, somatic practices, guided journaling, and business clarity sessions that help you slow down, regulate your nervous system, and realign your work with your voice, boundaries, and vision. Rooted in reflection, connection, and gentle transformation, the retreat creates room to release burnout, untangle scope creep, dissolve self-doubt, and remember the authority you already hold. Participants will enjoy daily movement and meditation, community coaching, creative exploration, and excursions that spark inspiration—all within a supportive circle of women navigating the same season of transition. The intention is simple yet powerful: to help you step back from the noise, restore your energy, and craft a writing business—and a way of leading—that feels sustainable, nourishing, and deeply aligned with who you are.
