Our Soul Sister Tribe.
The Light Within’s Soul Sister Tribe was born from a circle of women who had each lost the love of her life to suicide, and who each believed she was carrying something no one else could understand. They arrived feeling alone and misunderstood, and somewhere between the tears and the unexpected laughter they found sisters who knew their hearts without a word of explanation.
What began as a few women holding one another up has blossomed into a sisterhood devoted to healing after loss, where grief is honored, tenderness is given freely, and no woman has to walk this road by herself.
Healing does not end when a retreat does, and so the Tribe carries it home. We share the resources and rituals that have soothed us, mark the anniversaries and the small victories, and hold space for one another on the days when the weight returns. We gather online each month, and in between we stay close through our private Facebook group and our email circle, all lovingly tended by a dedicated community manager, so that a sister is always within reach.
How we heal together.
The Soul Sister Tribe is for members only, and it is reserved for women who have lost a spouse or partner to suicide. Every woman who joins us on retreat becomes part of the Tribe, from the moment she reserves her place and for as long as she wishes to stay. Keeping the circle private is what allows us to speak from the heart, knowing that every woman here understands.
A circle healed in trust.
Some bonds deserve more than a screen, and so we gather in person for reunion retreats created for the women who have already journeyed with us. These are a chance to return to the water, to see how far each woman has come, and to embrace the friends who have become family since the last time we stood on the sand together. Reunion dates are posted on our Retreats page, and they are reserved for sisters who have attended one of our retreats before.
