About this Event
Description
You're the person people count on. At work. At home. In your circle. You handle the decisions, hold the details, and make it look easy - even when it isn't.
Unfrayed is a half-day reset for women leaders, executives, entrepreneurs, and high-performing professionals who need space to breathe, think clearly, and be cared for for once.
This is not a conference. It is not a networking event where you have to make small talk or prove your value. It is a thoughtfully hosted, small-group experience for 8-10 women in a beautiful private North Scottsdale estate.
Come exactly as you are. You do not need to be "on."
What this half-day gives you
- Permission to stop performing and settle in without having to make small talk or manage anyone else
- A real conversation with women who understand the weight of being the dependable one
- Guided reflection to name what’s draining you and what needs to change
- Space to clear your head, reconnect with your own voice, and leave with one meaningful next step
- A memorable Scottsdale-style close: golden hour, a crystal-bowl immersion, or tea on the patio, depending on your session

- A credit toward a future Root & Rise retreat or coaching experience, should you want to continue the work
The setting
Gather at a private North Scottsdale estate designed for slowing down—shaded patios, quiet corners, desert light, and room to simply breathe. The exact address will be shared with registered guests.
Good to know
- Please arrive 15 minutes early so you can settle in before we begin.
- Wear whatever helps you feel comfortable. Bring water and a light layer for the indoor/outdoor setting.
- Rideshare is encouraged; driveway parking is limited.
- You are never required to share. Participate in the way that feels right for you.
- Unfrayed is a facilitated personal and professional development experience. It is not therapy, medical care, or a substitute for either.
You'll leave with more than a nice afternoon
- A nervous-system reset practice you can use in the moment, the next time work follows you home
- Words for what you have been carrying - named on paper, so it stops running the background
- One meaningful next step you chose, not one someone assigned you
- A journal with your own thinking in it - yours to keep
- A 20-minute private integration call within two weeks of your session, to help the reset stick
