UNLEASHED

UNLEASHED is a movement of immersive experiences for women and women-aligned people ready to give themselves permission to:

  • Reconnect with their bodies
  • Explore desire and self-expression
  • Release what's been held back

All within a safe, intentional container.

Guided by a curated lineup of women facilitators trained in psychology, somatics and movement, coaching, and trauma-informed care.

Move, connect, and explore together.

Choose the depth and path that's calling you.

This is not passive listening.

This is a lived, embodied experience.

Location

Studio 205 — 1821 W. Hubbard, Chicago, IL

Join us in the heart of Chicago for an intimate, carefully held evening. The space is curated to support presence, safety, and a fully immersive sensory experience.

Why UNLEASHED

You don’t need more information.
You need space to feel, move, choose, and reconnect.

UNLEASHED is designed for women who are doing the inner work and are ready to embody it — not alone, not rushed, and not pushed beyond their capacity.

Here, safety comes first.
Choice is honored.
Community is built through shared experience and supportive, open-hearted humans.

The Retreat

What makes UNLEASHED different

UNLEASHED is not a one-size-fits-all retreat. It’s a carefully held container that offers structure and choice, guidance and permission, depth and regulation. Come for the facilitators. Stay for the movement. Choose the depth that’s calling you.

The Experience

A container for connection — built to last.

UNLEASHED is an immersive experience designed to help women move beyond internal limits and into embodied self-trust. Rather than offering a fleeting retreat high, it creates space for depth, connection, and honest exploration. Participants leave with experiences, language, and insight meant to integrate into real life — long after each event ends.

Who it's for

Who UNLEASHED welcomes.

UNLEASHED welcomes women 21+, including trans women and non-binary or gender-nonconforming individuals who feel connected to womanhood. This experience is for those at any stage of their journey — whether exploring desire for the first time, deepening embodiment, or seeking meaningful connection. Curiosity, openness, and a willingness to be present are the only prerequisites.

Supportive group setting

The Container

Trauma-informed. Consent-forward. Held with care.

UNLEASHED is intentionally designed as a trauma-informed, consent-forward space. Emotional safety, autonomy, and respect are non-negotiable. Mental health providers will be on-site for grounding and support, and discrimination, boundary violations, or harmful behavior of any kind will result in immediate removal.
