Transformational Retreats for Women: How Travel & Community Change You
Description
Transformational retreats for women are more than vacations—they’re immersive experiences that create healing, self-discovery, confidence, and clarity. In this episode of Shine In & Out, Samantha sits down with Anna Van Atmill, founder of Wandering Roots, to explore how intentional travel, community, and nervous system regulation accelerate personal growth and long-lasting transformation.
Anna shares her journey from a science career to leading transformational retreats for women, revealing why stepping outside your comfort zone and traveling with strangers can reset stress, reframe mindset, and rebuild identity. These retreats aren’t about escaping life—they’re about returning home more aligned, empowered, and whole.
