Sovereignty: Mastermind Group for Women
For leaders, teachers, healers, creatives & small business owners
~Feb.- May 2023. In-person. ~
Downtown Brevard, NC
~SOLD OUT–WAITING LIST~
Are you in midst of major life/career transitions and asking, “What’s next?” Would you like to experience greater alignment in all that you do? Having a support system makes ALL the difference in how you experience the journey! With humor, wisdom, grace and power we’ll explore how to create a strong allegiance to self and show up 100% you in all situations. Enjoy compassionate mentoring, a powerful mastermind format, a community of like-minded women, nurturing support, personal empowerment and heartfelt connection.
This group will be experiential (as opposed to content driven) AND some of the topics we may explore as we unpack our “sovereignty” include:
When: Feb. 23rd, March 9th, March 23rd, April 6th, April 20th, May 4th, Closing: May 11th (you may miss 1-2 meetings but need to be at the first gathering). Thursdays, 6:30-8:30 p.m. Seven sessions. Downtown Brevard near the library.
**Includes pre-invites to other spontaneous nature-based outings and movement/song circles led by Renee.
Who is coming: Women leaders/teachers/healers/creatives and small business owners I have personally connected with who are soulful, alive, authentic, open, supportive and interested in having conversations that matter in a safe/confidential environment.
Women who are signing up are in transition and in the process of re-imagining, envisioning, and crafting a new life or work path. Through a guided mastermind format, we’ll explore resources for heightening self-awareness and befriending yourself. This is a completely safe, confidential, circle of trust and we’ll be entering in to clear agreements around sharing/privacy.
What you’ll experience: A guided, structured fun/lively Mastermind coaching format that will include: mentoring/support, small group and large group connection, meditation/stillness, journaling, body-centered practices to help you gain clarity/focus, connect to your feminine power, time in nature, solo reflection dates and sometimes meditation/gentle movement/song. I will follow my intuition and let the group experience guide me as to what you most need. Thanks for trusting me-I’ve been doing this for 30+ years.
Additional benefits: spontaneous invite-only nature-based events, Ebooks of both of my life balance books ($40), downloads/registration to the virtual Sovereignty Retreat and the Still, Dark & Quiet Deep Rest Winter Retreat ($120).
Location: A private home in downtown Brevard. We’ll always have tea and chocolates!
About Renee: As an internationally-recognized author/coach/speaker and retreat leader, I have mentored and supported thousands of women leaders in owning their power. I’ve been facilitating transformational experiences/groups/circles for women for 30 years and trained more than 450 therapists/coaches/leaders in 10 countries around the globe to lead women’s self-renewal circles. Knowing how to create potent, sacred group experiences that balance “being” and “doing” is one of my super powers! Additionally, I founded/managed Career Strategists, a national boutique career coaching firm for 18 years and have helped thousands of women successfully navigate life transitions, business launches and career changes.

I will not die an unlived life
I will not live in fear
of falling or catching fire.
I choose to inhabit my days,
to allow my living to open me,
to make me less afraid,
more accessible,
to loosen my heart
until it becomes a wing,
a torch, a promise.
I choose to risk my significance;
to live so that which came to me as seed
goes to the next as blossom
and that which came to me as blossom,
goes on as fruit. ~ Dawna Markova
Investment in yourself: This will be a very special, intimate group experience (I am limiting size). Investment is $599 for the experience including the benefits above. Since we live in a rural area, this is significantly discounted from what I typically charge for a women’s group. As a point of reference, my hourly coaching rate is $350/hour.
To reserve your spot: Check with Renee to see if there is room, demand has been very high. We currently have a waiting list.
Payment: PayPal is preferred or you may write a check made out to “Renee Trudeau,” mailed to 159 W. Main St. #2373, Brevard, NC. Make sure if you do PayPal you choose “send to a friend” and pay from your bank account—so they don’t take out additional fees. If you need to pay half now and half the first night of the program, we can arrange this with prior request. If you need to pay with a credit card on PayPal, please add 3%. This is a great gift to give/receive!
Refunds: There are no refunds for this intimate group experience (even if you have to miss meetings) given it is being offered at a significant discount. You also receive $160 in support resources/classes/books.
Preparation: You’ll receive an email from me with details on how to prepare two weeks prior.
If you have any questions at all, please reach out—I really want to ensure this is a fit. It’s ok if you have to miss a meeting or two, but I’d like all to attend the first meeting. I apologize if I don’t respond right away to your email questions—I travel/teach for work so my schedule is really full. This is an in-person experience and we do not have a Zoom option.
