for the woman asking, Who am I now?
HARRAH
I thought I'd lost everything.
I didn't realize I was finding myself.
I'm Rachael. I've been there. I'm still in it. And I've learned enough along the way to know that what feels like falling apart might actually be falling away. You don't have to do this alone.
This is a space for women in the middle of it - the unraveling, the unknown, the quiet feeling that the life you've been living just wasn't quite yours.

Most of us spend our lives becoming who everyone else needs us to be. And somewhere along the way - gradually, quietly, without us even really deciding - we lose the thread of ourselves.
The Woman Within is a 90-minute guided self-discovery experience that helps you find you again. Through a gentle framework, reflective writing, and a guided visualization, you'll meet three versions of yourself - the one who was shaped by others, the one who learned to survive, and the one who has been quietly waiting underneath it all. Your truest self. Your woman within. You'll leave with more clarity about who you actually are, a deeper connection to your own intuition, and a felt sense of what becomes possible when you stop abandoning yourself.
"Rachael has a true gift as a facilitator. She creates a space that feels safe, trusting, and quietly powerful from the very beginning."
A kind of environment where deep inner work unfolds naturally, with ease and calm. This workshop is a beautiful place to begin the journey back to yourself.
"Rachael was insightful, honest, and an absolute pleasure to learn from."
Her presence made the experience even more meaningful.
"Rachael has a rare, grounded presence that immediately puts people at ease."
She creates environments where women feel safe to open up, reflect, and reconnect with themselves. She's a space-holder in the truest sense.
"The amount of self realization and healing I gained from a single workshop with Rachael was incredible."
It's an overwhelming task to guide someone through their past, present, and future selves in an hour or less - but Rachael was able to make space for all of us to be present and vulnerable enough to make the journey.

Learn more about Estia
Five days in a private home overlooking the Aegean - with self-discovery work, somatic practice, slow shared meals, and the kind of space that lets something long-quiet finally speak.
Estia was inspired by Hestia, the Greek goddess of the hearth - a symbol of homecoming, inner fire, sacred stillness, and the warmth of gathering. It's not about becoming someone new. It is about returning to the woman who has been there all along.
Rachael is the cohost and cofounder of Estia - a transformational bi-annual retreat on the Greek island of Syros for women ready to step into the life that's meant for them.

For months, I barely left my bed. I was sick in a way that scared me - some days I could hardly breathe. I would lie there and stare out the window and ask myself the same question on a loop. How is this my real life?
One morning, too nauseous to move, I found myself watching the walnut tree in our garden. It was windy that day. And I noticed the tree wasn't fighting the wind. It wasn't bracing against it. It was just letting itself be moved.
I had been doing the opposite. Bracing against a life I didn't choose and couldn't control.
So I made a decision, right there in that bed. To stop resisting. To soften. To let it all belong.
Nothing changed overnight. I was still sick. Still heartbroken. Still afraid. But something in me had turned. I stopped asking why this was happening to me - and started asking what it might be here to show me.
I thought I had lost everything. I didn't realize I was finding myself.
In the span of a few months, I lost my health, my marriage, my career, and my sense of who I was.
All at once. At 40. In a country that wasn't mine.
Her workshop, The Woman Within, has guided women across Europe through a process of radical self-discovery - helping them reconnect with who they really are beneath all the roles, the losses, and the life they thought they were supposed to have. Women leave feeling more like themselves than they have in years.
Her work isn't surface level. It's a remembering. And she guides it the way only someone who has made the journey herself can - with warmth, honesty, and a deep knowing that the woman you're looking for is already in there.
With twenty years of experience in identity and self-expression - as a brand strategist, creative director and founder - Rachael brings both professional depth and hard-won personal wisdom to her work.
Her work has been featured in Vogue, Elle Canada, NPR, the Los Angeles Times, and Mother Magazine. She's the author of the upcoming How to Feel Better, and she's working on a memoir.
Rachael lives in Belgium with her two children.

YES, I WANT THE GUIDE
After losing my health, my marriage and my sense of self all at once, I learned some very important things about how to find myself again. Not as someone who has it all figured out - but as someone who has lived it, and who genuinely believes that the life that's meant for you will always find you.
Just the truest things I know, offered to you with love. x Rachael
When my life unraveled, I couldn't find what I needed. So I wrote it down.
I HAD TO LIVE TO LEARN
