BEING
IS
ENOUGH
The Sanctuary Experience stewards two sanctuaries, one in Washington State and one in Mexico. They exist for one purpose: so that women imagining and creating a better world can come to rest, return to themselves, and remember that they are more than they produce.
We prioritize BIPOC women, who are shifting culture through education, activism, policy change, and art while carrying the weight of systems never built for them to thrive. Their need for sanctuary is urgent and historically denied.
We live in a world that rarely pauses, where urgency is rewarded, stillness is suspect, and burnout is built into the system.
The Sanctuary Experience is not an escape, but a homecoming. A place for brave rest acknowledging you are already whole.
We believe that deep care is a quiet kind of power. It’s in every space and experience we design. When we are held by place and people, magic is both a feeling and a flow.
“Thank you for gifting me time and space. So that I may have perspective. So that I could wander and be alive again.” — 2025 Fellow
The Sanctuary Experience offerings are designed to care for the women who care for the world. We offer curated Fellowships and Journeys that are thoughtfully designed for those holding too much. Through unrestricted financial support, immersive experiences, and wrap-around care and community, we meet them where they are.
