A Transformational Journey for People Who Want to

Communicate with Confidence and Compassion

We're Elizabeth and Ro, and we're so glad you're here. If you've found your way to this page, you're likely seeking a way to navigate the tough conversations that come up in your relationships—conversations that can feel intimidating, vulnerable, or even downright scary. We want you to know that you’re not alone in this.

Our Purpose: Equipping You with Tools for Connection

This retreat is designed to give you the tools you need to approach difficult conversations with confidence, compassion, and clarity. Whether you're navigating the unique dynamics of non-monogamy or just looking to improve communication in any relationship, this experience will help you express your needs, set healthy boundaries, and deepen your connections.

A Safe, Supportive, and Nurturing Environment

We know that diving into this kind of work can feel daunting, especially if you've been hurt in the past or if you're still finding your voice. That’s why we’ve created a space where you can feel completely supported as you grow. We approach everything with a trauma-informed perspective, honoring where you are right now. You’ll be welcomed into a community that values safety, understanding, and respect above all.

What to Expect: A Transformative 14-Day Journey

From October 1st to 14th, 2024, we’ll guide you through a transformative journey that combines live sessions, video materials, and community support. Each day, you'll have opportunities to learn, reflect, and practice the skills that will help you communicate more effectively in your relationships. You'll also have access to a loving and understanding community where you can share your experiences and grow together.

Ro is a fantastic communicator. The way Ro is able to ask exactly the right questions and show genuine care will leave you feeling like you’re getting to know yourself better and growing as a person. She’s given me tools I can rely on, that make me feel like I can face life’s challenges. People could learn a lot from her about what it means to really listen to a person - really, really listen - without judgment.

Ro has a way of making complicated things make sense. She is insightful, empathic and an excellent active listener who is skilled at speaking from an honest and compassionate place. She creates a warm and inviting space to explore challenges in a way that feels safe and productive. I honestly think everyone could benefit from spending time with Ro, and I’m so glad I took the step to invest in myself with her help.

~ Jay, educator, Germany

Elizabeth has a special way of making you feel truly seen. She radiates positivity, and operates from a place of LOVE and radical acceptance. She is welcoming of all people and has a real gift for helping others find the things in life that will bring them joy. I have left every interaction with her feeling more energized and optimistic.

- Erin Allan, MA, RYT 500

Ro’s voice has consistently cut through the crowd. Her work is unapologetic and unrelenting. Her words are as choice as they are necessary. Her commitment to understanding the topics she discusses is unparalleled, and her depth is a breath of fresh air. The importance of such a voice in today’s world, a world where everyone is speaking loudly rather than thinking loudly, cannot be overstated. And that’s precisely what Ro does—she thinks loudly. She thinks out loud the things the world needs to hear.

~ Joe Duncan, author of “The Science of Sex”, editor of “Sexography”, USA

I have known Elizabeth for several years now and have had the pleasure to work with her and get to know her. She is an outstanding and motivated person. She has a commitment to excellence and making a difference in the world few can rival. Every time I speak to her in any capacity I learn something new and I discover something about myself. She is a bright light in this world who I love knowing and having the privilege to work with and relate to.

Meet your instructors!

Hi! I'm Elizabeth or E. It has been my absolute pleasure to be helping people in their relationships since 2011. I received my degrees in Political Science and Gender & Sexuality in 2011. After graduating I helped create programs, trainings and lead talks at a local Domestic Violence Center for 3 years. I determined to switch my focus from helping people out of unhealthy relationships and teach them how to get into healthy ones and started on the path of transformational coaching in 2015. I started coaching people in polyamory in 2017. I received my coaching certification in the Erotic Blueprints and Accelerated Evolution Transformational Life Coaching. I primarily serve people who are polyamorous, non monogamous and/or people in the LGBTQIA communities. My mission is to help people be their authentic selves, create the relationships that truly work for them and their partner/s and to have a ton of fun doing it.

Hello! I'm Ro Moëd, and I’m a writer, coach, and trainee therapist. I share my insights on conscious connection, polyamory, relationship anarchy, and personal growth across my social media platforms. In my coaching practice, I specialise in supporting my clients to embrace their authenticity and autonomy, crafting a life that aligns with their personal values. I work with people to develop a deeper understanding of their own and other people’s processes (how this affects our thoughts, feelings, and behaviours) so they can communicate compassionately, create healthy relationships, and get what they really want - ethically! Currently, I'm studying Transactional Analysis Psychotherapy and previously trained at the Animas Centre for Coaching. Prior to this, I spent nearly a decade in adult education, where I discovered my passion for empowering individuals with knowledge, as well as creating a safe learning environment.

Does it matter what time zone I’m in?

No. You can join from any time zone.

We will do lives at various times during the day and week to accommodate for multiple time zones.

Ro is in British Summer Time (Southern United Kingdom).

All lives will be published to the Instagram feed for the retreat so you can watch them whenever it works for you. All course materials are self-guided and can be worked on at your leisure.

We do one module every two days so you have ample time to interact with the lives and community conversations. 

Will I be able to access the course afterwards?

Yes. All course materials (videos and workbook) will be available to you ongoingly or until the internet breaks, which we can’t control. 🙂

Will I be able to purchase the course after the retreat is over on the 14th?

No. If you want to be able to have the course and course materials you will need to purchase it before October 14th to have access. Even if you can't make the retreat you can still access the course and materials.

What if my partner isn’t interested in participating?

When one partner participates in this type of learning and coaching, we often find that the other partner begins to pick up the tools and techniques simply by mirroring what is working, even without participating. 

How much time do I need to commit during the retreat?

Like most things, the more you put in, the more you will get out. 

Suggestions for how you could interact:

- Check in with comments made by community members when inspiration calls (5 minutes a day?)

Is this retreat suitable for beginners in non-monogamy?

Absolutely. This material is designed to meet you exactly where you are at. No prior knowledge or experience is required to gain what you need for yourself in this course. 

This course was created by polyamorous coaches with polyamorous people in mind, but it is not about polyamory.  

Can I take this course even if I’m not non-monogamous or polyamorous?

Yes! Please do. This course is about relationships and healthy communication, not about non-monogamy. 

How much does it cost?

The investment for the Soulful Sharing Sanctuary Virtual Retreat and How to Have Difficult Conversations Course is $100USD, or roughly £76/€90 at the time of answering this question (22nd of August, 2024 - for the most up to date exchange rates consult Google).

Will I be able to sign up later?

No. If you want to be able to buy and keep all materials, purchases need to be made by October 14th.

You need to buy earlier if you want to participate in the Soulful Sharing Sanctuary Retreat experience, which will be from October 1st - October 14th, so we recommend signing up before the start date to get the full package.
