OCEANS OF FEMININE MYSTERY TESTIMONIALS:


What a delicious, magical, fulfilling experience! I felt celebrated, seen, and honored in a deep way, and something inside me shifted. I am finally beginning to live the life I have always dreamed, to know myself as sacred and divine. I feel I am fully in my body now, in the delight of being alive. I will carry the memory of our co-created rituals and depthful sharing for the rest of my life. In my heart, I am still running on a beach, wearing the colors of Yemaya and laughing. Thank you, Francesca, and thank you to the other women who attended -- I hold you all in my heart. -

I had no idea what to expect at the retreat. Francesca is a very charismatic and engaging leader and brought a lot of soulful energy to our gathering. I can honestly say that this was the most feminine bonding I have done since sorority pledging in college. Prepare for intensely spiritual immersion in goddess tradition. The location is great and very relaxing. It was a stretch for this left brained individual but I am glad I came. - Ann Towey


I’ve seen Francesca Gentille be a fabulous conference host and presenter at the Lotus Workshop in Minneapolis.  Now, I’ve experienced her personhood and energy at a small women’s workshop by the ocean as well.  She is incredibly knowledgeable about sacred history and has a cross cultural awareness that can meet the needs of individuals interested in the many intellectual inquiries into sacred sexuality.  For those that want an experience of the heart, she is amazingly gifted at facilitating a group, sharing in intimacy and role-modeling heart opening love and connection to the mystery of the sacred.  A workshop with Francesca feels like an experience in being alive in joy.  In addition, she gives many practical tools and follow-up ideas to facilitate taking the lessons into our personal lives for the rest of our lives.  Trust your intuition if you feel called to meet and work with Francesca Gentille. – Susan Miranda


It was in the wonderful month of april that I journeyed to my home in the barrier islands on the coast of north Florida to spend a weekend learning, laughing, remembering, and growing with a very special group of women. The retreat was everything I had hoped for, and the women indeed became a sisterhood, as we studied the teachings of the wise women who lived long ago. Our mentor, Francesca Gentille, is a very wise woman and incredible teacher. She not only knows her history, but tells stories that give food for thought and great support. I could ramble on about the food, the walks, the ocean, the ancient goddesses. Instead I would tell anyone who reads this testimony, to join us in September, for a safe spiritual walk with yourself and others. -

When I signed up for Oceans of Feminine Mysteries, I didn't quite know what to expect. What I received was an opportunity to discover the ancient lineage of women, and return to a sense of power in my body. I feel so blessed to have met such wonderful women, spent several days in knowledge and relaxation, and to have come home to myself as a woman in a new way.
