Step away from the appointments, timelines, and pressure of trying to conceive. Designed for just 19 women, this intimate retreat invites you to slow down, reconnect with your body, and prepare for motherhood through evidence-informed education, restorative healing, meaningful connection, and whole-person care.
April 4–9, 2027 • Verdesana, Costa Rica
There comes a point on many fertility journeys where you're no longer just physically tired—you're emotionally exhausted. You've followed the recommendations, kept the appointments, and learned a whole new language of hormones, tests, and timelines. Somewhere along the way, life can begin to revolve around trying to conceive. We created Fertile By Design Retreat because we believe healing asks for more than another appointment. It asks for space, clinical expertise, and a clear roadmap to becoming the Embodied Fertile Woman.
They've followed every recommendation, kept every appointment, tracked every cycle, and done everything they were told to do. Yet somehow, they still find themselves carrying the emotional weight of fertility almost entirely on their own—and no closer to holding their baby.
Not because they aren't supported, but because healing doesn't always happen inside a one-hour appointment.
Sometimes what we need isn't another test, another protocol, or another thing to check off the list. Sometimes we need the space to pause, tune into our bodies, and better understand what they need in this season. Space to build the awareness, capacity, and confidence to navigate the fertility journey with greater clarity, self-trust, and intention.
That's why we created our Fertile By Design Retreat.
This retreat is an invitation to step more deeply into your fertility journey—not by doing more, but by creating the space to reconnect with yourself and understand what your body needs to thrive. Through evidence-informed education, restorative healing, meaningful connection, and whole-person care, you'll deepen your understanding of fertility, learn how to support your body from within, and cultivate the internal conditions that help create the strongest possible foundation for growing your family. You'll leave feeling more connected to yourself, your body, your relationships, and your path forward.
Over the years, we've met hundreds of women on their fertility journeys. Their stories are all different, but one feeling comes up again and again: exhaustion.
Nestled within the Costa Rican rainforest, Verdesana offers an environment intentionally designed for restoration.
Imagine…
At Holistic Fertility Group, we believe fertility is about so much more than reproductive health. It's about your whole body, your nervous system, your hormones, your relationships, your emotional wellbeing, and the story you're living every day.
Inside our clinic, this work begins through personalized consultations and collaborative care. But healing doesn't always fit neatly into a one-hour appointment between work, responsibilities, and the demands of everyday life.
This retreat is an extension of that philosophy.
Over six uninterrupted days, you'll have the space to slow down, reconnect with yourself, and experience fertility care in a way that simply isn't possible in the pace of daily life. Through evidence-informed education, restorative healing, meaningful connection, and intentional rest, you'll be supported in creating stronger foundations for your health, your fertility, and your future.
This isn't about escaping your life. It's about returning to it with greater clarity, connection, and trust in yourself.

As a mother, Doctor of Chinese Medicine, and Co-founder of The Holistic Fertility Group, Nicole has spent the past decade walking alongside hundreds of couples as they grow their families.
Her work is rooted in seeing the bigger picture—recognizing what may be standing in the way, holding the vision when others can’t yet see it, and creating the structures that allow something new to emerge.
Through her own fertility journey, Nicole learned that this path isn’t only about navigating the medical system. It’s about learning to soften, lead, create new possibility when the old one crumbles, and remain connected through the uncertainty.
Motherhood has always been woven into Jeanine’s story. Long before becoming a mother herself, that pull shaped how she moved through the world—and how she showed up for others.
Over the years, she has supported hundreds of couples on their fertility journeys through nursing, acupuncture, doula care, hypnobirthing education, and holistic support. Her approach recognizes that fertility extends far beyond the physical body; it’s also about safety, connection, and the environment we create to welcome new life.
Motherhood deepened Jeanine’s empathy and intuition, reinforcing her belief that there is no one-size-fits-all path. Her work honours presence, honesty, the nervous system, and the sacred timing of life.
Courtney has a gift that can't be taught: she knows what a room needs before anyone says a word. She senses when a moment calls for quiet, when someone needs a hand on their shoulder, and when the group is ready to laugh. That intuition makes her the steady, compassionate presence at the heart of our retreats.
Her background in mental health and wellness shaped how deeply she understands what women carry on the path to motherhood. She has seen the healing power of holistic medicine in her own life and in the lives of others. Now she brings that lived understanding to every woman she supports, meeting each one with warmth, patience and no judgement.
