Soul's Palette
'A Creative Journey Within'
Embark on a creative odyssey!
Let's play, let's create, let's be in joyous rapture, honouring and celebrating the truth of who we are!!!
Creativity is much more than generating art and new ideas; it's a vibrant manifestation of our inner light and beauty! When we cultivate our creative essence, we're nurturing an essential aspect of our being and allowing ourselves to SHINE!
Join me for a unique retreat, an unparalleled odyssey into the heart of creativity, offering a profound journey of personal and artistic transformation through the inner corridors of creation!
Nestled in the serene Byron Bay Hinterland, the sacred space of Soul's Palette Studios becomes a temple for deep self-exploration and creative liberation. Over four months, we will embark on eight one-day retreats, each day dedicated to a different artistic medium. This experience culminates in an exhibition of artworks created, symbolising our individual and group collective power.
Our time together will be guided by a structure that honours freedom and fluidity, allowing for a dynamic and mysterious path. With activities ranging from breathwork and meditation to writing, sculpture, painting, mosaics, beading, etc... each day is an open invitation to connect with your innermost self and the creative spirit that moves you.

ENDORSEMENTS
Hi! I had the privilege of signing up for Australia's very first Souls Palette 'A Creative Journey Within' workshop that Jen carefully and thoughtfully curated many moons ago. I journeyed alongside my fellow participants, who, in their individual ways, explored and revealed their vulnerabilities in a safe and caring space.
Through this process of joy, creativity, and guidance, I found a truly meaningful connection with myself. I was able to let go of what no longer served me and explore what I truly wanted out of life. I can say it has been life-changing. It opened doors to so many magical opportunities. Reflecting on the past couple of years, I have implemented many changes, both big and small. As a result, I am proud of my level of decision-making.
The choices I've made have led me to live my best life. Not only do I really enjoy my own company, but I’ve also invested in my friendships by truly showing up with clarity far beyond what I was capable of prior to this remarkable course.
I am grateful.

I completed Souls Palette 'A Creative Journey Within' workshop with my favourite art teacher, Jennifer. It was an exquisitely curated experience that seamlessly integrated healing techniques within a supportive group of caring women. Jennifer's thoughtful approach created a safe and nurturing environment that allowed us to explore our vulnerabilities and foster genuine connections.
This deeply nourishing experience ignited my creative spirit and awakened my artistic expression in ways I never imagined possible. The blend of creativity and healing was transformative, enabling me to tap into new depths of self-discovery and personal growth.
I am profoundly grateful for this journey and the incredible women I shared it with.
