Details

Remembering Together: Embodying Joy is a one-day, in-person gathering by the ocean for leaders, visionaries, and spiritually awake humans who feel the call to live with greater ease, coherence, and truth. The ambiance is intimate, spacious, and grounded in nature. We gather in circle, walk the beach, share meals, sit in quiet presence, and allow honest conversations to unfold organically. The rhythm of the day is unscripted and intuitive, guided by the energy we hold together and anchored by Gaia’s steady presence. At the heart of this gathering is a simple remembering: Joy is a choice. A choice of love instead of fear. This is not about ignoring the world or living outside of it. That would be avoidance. Instead, we meet reality with our feet firmly planted on the ground... and still choose love. We practice speaking from love, listening with love, seeing with love, and breathing in love. Over time, love overflows into joy. Consistency creates the overflow. This gathering takes place on a potent threshold: the day Neptune and Saturn meet at 0° Aries - marking the beginning of a new collective cycle. Rather than analyzing this shift, we meet it together in the body, in the heart, and in community, allowing a new way of being to be felt and embodied. The intent of this day is not self-improvement or fixing. It is Remembering... Together. A remembering that softens the nervous system, steadies the inner world, and makes joy more accessible, even in uncertain times. You can expect to leave with: * A calmer, more regulated nervous system * A felt sense of coherence and inner steadiness * Greater trust in your own truth and choices * An embodied understanding of joy as a lived experience * Meaningful connection with others choosing love alongside you This is not a workshop or a program to consume. It is a human, embodied day of being together... a living practice of remembering and embodying joy.

Testimonials

info

When I first moved to Cincinnati, Viv welcomed me into her community of creatives, healers, and spiritual seekers. She creates space for all to grow at their own pace, while also gently encouraging us to push our own boundaries of comfort and exploration. Viv and the community that she has nurtured has been a powerful source of motivation and inspiration for me as I discover the depth of my potential on Earth in this lifetime.

Amanda, USA

When I started working with Viv, I wasn’t sure what to expect, but the experience has been eye-opening. Her support has helped me slow down, notice how my energy affects the way I move through my day, and make small shifts that feel natural instead of forced. After each session, I walk away feeling lighter and clearer - not in a dramatic way, but in a steady, grounded way that sticks with me. What stands out most about Viv is her intuition and genuine care. In both one-on-one sessions and her amazing retreats, she holds space with so much love, making every experience deeply meaningful.

Sally, USA

There's something quietly powerful about the way Vivienne holds space. I came into it guarded and unsure if I could open to this kind of process. But the depth of her presence created a safety that allowed old, buried patterns to rise - and gently fall away. What remains now is a steadiness I haven't felt before and for me, a surprising sense of belonging! This was the pathway into a deeper phase of my life.
