🌿 Samantha Joy — Inspired Joy

Meet Samantha Joy, founder of Inspired Joy and one of the deeply attuned providers joining us at the Rooted to Bloom Retreat this May.

For more than five years, Samantha has nurtured a practice centered on personal reclamation, nervous system safety, and embodied empowerment. Her work aligns beautifully with the heart of Rooted to Bloom — inviting women to renew, heal, and step into thriving resilience.

Certified in EFT, Reiki, Craniosacral Therapy, Myofascial Release, and offering ionic foot detox, Samantha blends energetic precision with grounded, practical support. Her sessions help women release what’s heavy, realign with what’s true, and reconnect with their own innate wisdom and power.

Her guiding belief remains at the center of all she does:
You are not meant to suffer — and your power is not negotiable.

We are so honored to have her with us.

🌸 Retreat Update

We now have just ONE Grain Bin lodging option remaining for our May 6–8 retreat at Gathered Oaks.
It can be booked solo or as a shared lodging option (shared lodging simply reduces the lodging portion for one guest).

If this retreat has been calling to you, this is the moment to step in. Direct message for this special opportunity that remains 💙

🌸 LIMITED TIME OFFERING 🌸

I’m so thrilled to open this experience to you. I’ve partnered with two extraordinary women to bring a one‑of‑a‑kind, high‑end retreat to life—an afternoon designed for beauty, renewal, and deep exhale.

Kate Kuepers, known nationally for her floral artistry, will guide you in creating a lush, expressive, premium arrangement that continues to bring beauty into your home long after our time together.

Private Chef Kara Super‑Peterson will craft an unforgettable, deeply nourishing meal—intentional, soulful, and plated with the kind of care that makes you pause. This is the kind of lunch you remember (and yes… photograph).

And throughout the day, I’ll be holding space and guiding you through restorative practices, including:
• Guided Sauna + Contrast Therapy
• Outdoor Nature Therapy
• Curated Rest + Restoration
• Self‑Care + Self‑Love Meditation

Join us for this half‑day retreat of creation, nourishment, and renewal in a beautiful private setting in Pequot Lakes. Space is intentionally limited, and I would love to welcome you in.

✨ Retreat Update — We Are Officially Sold Out of Our Farmhouse Lodging ✨

What an incredible 24 hours. Our registration window closed yesterday… and already the Farmhouse Room is fully booked along with all other farmhouse lodging options.

We now have just TWO Grain Bin lodging options remaining — these are the last available spaces for the Rooted to Bloom Retreat.

If this experience has been calling to you, this is truly the moment to step in. We’re extending our reservation window through Sunday, and once these final Grain Bins are claimed, the retreat will be completely full.

Each Grain Bin can be reserved individually or shared with someone you love, which also reduces the lodging portion for one guest — a meaningful way to experience the retreat together while still having the space you need to rest and renew.

If your heart has been nudging you, trust that.
These last two Grain Bins are the final doorway into this beautiful, grounding experience at Gathered Oaks (May 6-8, 2026).

Register for your grain bin:

✨ Retreat Update — A Few Grain Bins Left + Only 1 Farmhouse Room ✨

What a beautiful response since yesterday’s post. The excitement around this retreat is growing, and we’re now down to just a select few Grain Bins and only ONE Farmhouse Room remaining.

If you’ve been feeling that gentle nudge to join us — to step into a space designed for grounding, renewal, and connection — this is your moment to say yes.

Both our Grain Bins and our final Farmhouse Room offer the option to share lodging with someone you love, which also reduces the lodging portion for one guest. It’s a meaningful way to experience the retreat together while still having the personal space you need to rest and renew.

Whether you come alone or with someone, this retreat is for all women. We naturally become connected in the most supportive ways, yet everyone has room to breathe, settle, and return to themselves.

Registration closes soon, and these last spaces won’t last 🌸

If your heart is leaning in, follow it 💙

A retreat experience unlike anything else — and one last chance to claim it.

Our Grain Bin lodging option closes tomorrow, 2/5, and if you’ve been considering joining us for the Rooted to Bloom Retreat, this is the moment to step in.

This restored Grain Bin is one of the most unique and grounding places to stay — warm, spacious, and full of character. It sets the tone for the kind of experience we’re creating: restorative, intentional, and held with care from the moment you arrive.

And a gentle reminder: this retreat is truly for all women. Whether you come alone or with someone, you’ll find connection in the most natural, supportive ways — while still having the personal space you need to unwind, renew, and return to yourself.

Registration closes tomorrow so we can begin shaping the menu, content, and full experience with the intention it deserves. If you’ve been feeling the nudge, this is your moment to follow it.

Bungee Class is one of my favorite reminders that life gets a little sweeter when we let ourselves try something new.

It’s not about being perfect.
It’s not about “getting it right.”
It’s about laughing mid‑air, surprising yourself, and remembering what it feels like to just have fun in your own body.

Every jump, swing, and bounce is a tiny act of courage — a way of saying, “I’m willing to step outside my comfort zone and see what happens.”

❣️Our final provider highlight and…1 SPOT ONLY…Get your space before it is gone❣️

We’re honored to welcome Sarah, an Alexandria native with over two decades of yoga experience. She brings a grounded, heart‑centered approach to movement, blending breath‑led flow with strength, balance, and flexibility.

All of this is part of Rooted to Bloom — our 3‑Day Spring Women’s Retreat (May 6–8, Wed–Fri at Gathered Oaks in Alexandria, MN). This mid‑week experience is crafted with exceptional attention to detail:
• Cedar sauna + cold plunge

Yesterday’s half‑day Workplace Wellness Somatic Release Retreat was something truly special. This team showed up with openness, curiosity, and a willingness to care for their own body, mind, and spirit — and it transformed the room.

Through grounding practices, gentle movement, and intentional connection, they experienced what it feels like to pause, reset, and return to their work with clarity and steadiness.

Creating spaces like this for teams is one of my greatest joys. When people feel supported, they show up differently — for themselves and for each other.
