Wanderlust Chronicles is a best-selling anthology book series that features women’s powerful stories of transformation, transition, and self-discovery through travel and lived experience. Each edition brings together a curated group of women whose stories not only inspire readers, but also elevate the contributors as leaders, guides, and voices of authority in their fields.
The upcoming edition, Retreats & Renewals, is now open for contributors.
This book is an invitation for women who create, lead, or are deeply impacted by transformational retreats and sacred spaces—including retreat leaders, facilitators, entrepreneurs, guides, and guests whose lives were meaningfully changed through retreat experiences.
A quiet shift is happening
There is a quiet but unmistakable shift happening.
Across the globe, women are feeling the pull to gather others—to create spaces for healing, clarity, creativity, and transformation. Some are seasoned retreat leaders. Others are still holding the idea gently, shaping it in notebooks, conversations, and moments of intuition.
Retreats are no longer just events. They are places of reconnection, remembrance, and renewal—and the women who hold these spaces are stepping into deeper leadership.
Retreats & Renewals was created to honour these stories.
This book is for you if…
You are a retreat leader, facilitator, coach, or guide
You are building—or dreaming of building—transformational experiences
You have attended a retreat that profoundly impacted your life
You feel called to share a story of renewal, healing, or awakening
You believe sacred space can change lives
You want to grow your work with intention, integrity, and credibility
You are ready to be seen and taken seriously as an expert in your field
If you see yourself here, this project was created with you in mind.
About Retreats & Renewals
This upcoming Wanderlust Chronicles anthology explores sacred spaces, self-discovery, and the power of renewal through the voices of women who understand that retreats are catalysts — not just destinations.
Each chapter is a personal, reflective story that speaks to transformation through experience. Together, the book becomes a collective offering that reaches readers who are already seeking depth, meaning, and alignment.
Why contribute a chapter?
For many retreat leaders and facilitators, visibility is a quiet challenge. Social media is fleeting. Algorithms change. Posts disappear. A published chapter offers something different.
Contributing to Retreats & Renewals allows you to:
Reach aligned clients before they are actively searching for their next retreat
Share the deeper why behind your work—not just the logistics
Build trust through story rather than marketing language
Position yourself as a thought leader in the retreat and transformation space
This anthology becomes a long-form introduction to your work—one that continues opening doors long after a retreat ends.
You don’t need a finished retreat to tell your story
You do not need to have your retreat fully launched, sold out, or perfectly packaged to contribute.
Many powerful retreat leaders begin by:
Clarifying their message
Sharing their lived experience
Speaking honestly about why they are called to this work
Writing a chapter for Retreats & Renewals is about claiming your voice and leadership—even as your retreat continues to evolve.
It’s about stepping into visibility before everything feels finalized, while building your audience, growing your email list, and creating meaningful pathways for future clients to find you.
Guided by community and shared leadership
When women step into retreat leadership, they rarely do it alone. They are guided by mentors, peers, and community builders who understand both the vision and the practical realities of creating meaningful experiences.
For Retreats & Renewals, we are honoured to be working with Wendy Moore (Zendy Wendy)—founder of The Elevated Female Entrepreneur: Plan & Host Profitable Elite Retreats—as our official ambassador for this anthology.
As a long-time connector in the retreat and entrepreneurial space, Wendy supports women who are building retreats—whether they are already hosting experiences or still in the early planning stages. Her role is to help women explore whether contributing to Retreats & Renewals aligns with their vision, goals, and current stage of business.
A strategic opportunity for women entrepreneurs
For established retreat leaders and facilitators, contributing to Retreats & Renewals is both meaningful and strategic.
This anthology allows you to:
Share your philosophy and approach
Highlight the deeper purpose behind your retreats
Connect with a global, aligned audience
Promote your work organically through story
Rather than traditional marketing, this is relationship-based visibility—the kind that attracts the right people because they resonate with your values and lived experience.
