A taste of adventure.

The Carson River Women’s Wellness Retreat is a beginner-friendly women’s wellness retreat featuring rustic accomodations, gentle rafting, overnight camping, and healing hot springs—no experience required, just a willingness to slow down and connect.

We blend guided moments, open exploration, and space to reflect—so the experience feels both focused and fluid.

❋ Intentional Structure and Fun

Connection is a core part of the fun. You’ll learn just as much from the group as from the content itself.

❋ Collaborative Energy

Led by experienced guides who know how to hold space, encourage participation, and keep things moving with purpose.

❋ Therapist Led

Our events prioritize respect, safety, and inclusivity—so you can slow down, reconnect, and return to yourself.

❋ A Supportive Space

If you’ve ever thought, “I’d love to do that, but I don’t know how…” this retreat is for you.

Rebecca Truitt

Rebecca lives in Tucson, Arizona, where she works as a surface water quality environmental scientist. Her adventurous spirit was nurtured from a young age by her mother, a science teacher, who instilled in her the principles of environmental stewardship and reciprocity. Some of Rebecca's most cherished memories involve getting her hands dirty while conducting stream surveys, attending science camps, and volunteering for ecological restoration projects. These experiences taught her the value of creative, hands-on community engagement as a powerful tool for environmental education. Today, she is passionate about ecology and finds joy in hiking desert landscapes, identifying native plants, and gardening.
