Soulful Travel for Women

A global sisterhood rooted in healing, connection, and transformative journeys.

At Honest Heart Journeys, we believe travel should do more than take you places — it should bring you home to yourself.

We are a growing a global circle of women who crave more than surface-level experiences. Women who are ready to journey deeper — and into the truth of who we are, as individuals and within community. Whether we’re walking the Camino side by side, sipping tea with women weavers in the Moroccan desert, or watching giraffes cross a setting sun in Kenya, our trips are built on three things: story, sisterhood, and spirit.

This isn’t only about checking places off a bucket list. This is about choosing trips with meaning.


Because when women travel with intention — together — something beautiful unfolds.

“I wasn’t just traveling — I was being seen. And seeing myself again.”

Travel with Intention: Inside the Honest Heart 

In a world full of curated getaways and surface-level retreats, Honest Heart Journeys offers something entirely different: transformational travel for women that nurtures the soul, opens the heart, and calls us back to what really matters. At the core of our journeys is not a destination or a checklist. It's connection—to self, to nature, to each other.

We are a global sisterhood of women drawn to meaningful experiences and soulful conversations. Our trips are an invitation to slow down, let go of roles and responsibilities, and step into something deeper: a sacred space where healing, reflection, and joy unfold naturally.

Nature & Culture as a Mirror: Where We Go Matters

Each journey begins with choosing a place that speaks to something within us. We seek out natural landscapes and cultures where the land itself and the people we meet become teacher and guide. From Vietnam’s now-thriving cities emerging from the scars of war to the wild silence of the Green River canyons in Utah, we walk into spaces that whisper truths we didn’t know we needed to hear.

These aren't just backdrops for pretty pictures. They are living metaphors.

  • In Vietnam, our theme of forgiveness unfolds as we immerse ourselves in a culture shaped by resilience and grace. The quiet strength of the people, the beauty of Buddhist mindfulness practices, and the vibrant natural surroundings invite reflection on what we need to release and what we are ready to receive.

  • On the Green River in Utah, our journey is shaped around the journey of grace. The canyon walls echo with silence, space, and stillness. Here, we rediscover flow—in the water, in our lives, and in our own sense of enoughness.

  • In Morocco, we step into a vibrant culture of generosity, where hospitality is a sacred act. We are welcomed into homes and hearts, and something ancient inside us remembers how to receive.

  • On the Camino de Santiago, the path itself teaches faith and presence. One step at a time, one day at a time, we learn to walk ourselves home, guided by The Work of Byron Katie within the trusted company of sisterhood.

The Inner Journey: A Shared Book, A Shared Question

For each trip, we choose a companion book that we read in the weeks leading up to our journey. These books are carefully selected to align with the healing themes we’ll be exploring and to open shared ground for honest dialogue. They stir our questions, validate our longings, and connect us through common threads of story and insight.

Books like Gift from the Sea by Anne Morrow Lindbergh, The Art of Forgiveness, Lovingkindness, and Peace by Jack Kornfield, When the Heat Waits by Sue Monk Kidd, The Red Tent by Anita Diamant, and I Need Your Love–Is That True? by Byron Katie are not just pre-reading. They are part of the journey itself. They give us language for the stirrings in our hearts and remind us that we are not alone in our seeking.

As we read, we journal. We begin reflecting before we even step onto a plane. Our pre-trip calls introduce us to one another—faces, voices, stories—and create a container of safety and belonging. This is not a group of strangers. It's the beginning of a circle.

Reflection, Celebration & Circle

During our trips, we create space for deep reflection and meaningful connection. Each day offers a rhythm of movement, conversation, quiet, and guided practices. There are no requirements. You are invited, never obligated.

We journal with intention, using prompts inspired by our shared book and the landscape around us. We gather to share what arises, knowing that having another hear our questions and revelations can be a healing gift. 

We speak from the heart, listen with compassion, and hold space without fixing, saving, or advising. These principles create a sacred circle where your story is safe, your voice is valued, and silence is honored.

And at the heart of every journey is celebration. We mark what matters. Birthdays, milestones, breakthroughs, the courage to show up—we honor it all. Women are invited to bring offerings: a poem, a song, a handmade gift, a shared ritual from their hearts. These Offerings are moments of magic, as women reveal something meaningful that they choose to give. Through these offerings, we meet each other in a deeper way. And often, women discover their own worth in the process.

A Community That Begins Before and Lasts Beyond

Our journeys begin long before the actual trip and continue long after the bags are unpacked. Pre-trip Zoom calls create a strong foundation. We get to know each other, learn more about the destination, and start the work of slowing down and tuning in.

Post-trip, we hold follow-up calls to reflect on what we experienced. What changed? What surprised us? What still lingers? These conversations offer integration and connection, a reminder that the journey continues.

And then, there is our Honest Heart Community online space. Here, trip sisters stay connected and new sisters join in. Guided by the same engagement practices we use on our trips, this digital hearth is a place of belonging for women around the world who are walking the same path of honest living and soulful growth.

In the Honest Heart Community, you can:

  • Join virtual gatherings and circles

  • Follow up on what resonates in our blog and podcast

  • Circle around the Hearth – our ongoing interactive discussions on universal themes

  • Share your questions, milestones, and insights

  • Be supported with accountability and listening by a sisterhood that sees and celebrates you

  • Connect 1:1 with women from around the world who are in this membership community

This is where sistering happens: women showing up for each other with love, presence, and the wisdom of shared experience.

Everything By Invitation, Nothing Required

In our everyday lives, we're held to expectations, roles, and shoulds. At Honest Heart Journeys, we offer something radical: freedom. Every part of the experience is an invitation.

You can journal or not. You can speak or listen. You can rise early or join late. There are no gold stars, no performance, no pressure.

What you will find is support: women who walk beside you, listen deeply, and reflect your truth back to you. You will find yourself asking different questions, uncovering quieter truths, and softening into a deeper knowing.

This isn’t just travel. This is a return to your honest heart.

Soulful Travel for Women Who Are Ready for More

If you are a woman who longs for meaningful connection — with yourself, with other women, with the world around you — Honest Heart Journeys is here to welcome you.

Whether you’re walking alongside ancient olive trees in Spain, paddling amongst playful sea lions in Baja, or sharing tea with new sisters in Morocco, you are stepping into something sacred. A circle. A sisterhood. A way of both inner and outer travel that changes everything.

Come for the journey. Stay for the connection.

And when you return home, carry it with you — in your heart, in your rhythms, and in the community that is always just a circle away.
