概要

 Meg Sylvester leads retreats that don’t rely on hype, hierarchy, or spiritual performance. Instead, she creates what she calls the “retreat bubble”—a contained, intentional space where people feel safe enough to slow down, create, and reconnect with themselves without judgment.In this episode, Meg breaks down the two very different types of retreats she runs, how she balances structure with intuition, and why true facilitation isn’t about having answers—it’s about creating the conditions for others to find their own. She also shares how health challenges, creativity, and lived experience shaped her work, and why environment, pacing, and psychological safety matter more than buzzwords.Episode ThemesThe “retreat bubble” and why containment creates safetyTwo retreat models: inner work vs. curated group travelStructure vs. intuition — why both matterCircular leadership and facilitation without hierarchyCreativity as a tool for healing, clarity, and confidenceJudgment-free spaces and avoiding “spiritual gaslighting”Why slow mornings, free time, and pacing matterHosting retreats that feel grounded, not performativeChapters00:00 — Welcome + what this show is about00:40 — Meg’s background and retreat philosophy01:55 — Two types of retreats: inner work vs. group travel04:25 — Defining the “retreat bubble”06:10 — Structure, intuition, and earning participant trust07:55 — Tools Meg uses: writing, yoga, breathwork, creativity09:35 — Why slow mornings and free time matter11:40 — Judgment-free facilitation and psychological safety14:45 — Masculine / feminine energy and inclusivity16:10 — Men in retreat spaces and authenticity in marketing18:45 — Health, creativity, and lived experience as teachers23:00 — Group travel retreats and third-party planners25:00 — Where to find Meg and closing thoughtsAbout the Guest – Meg SylvesterMeg Sylvester is a published author, speaker, and retreat facilitator known for her playful, soulful storytelling and grounded facilitation style. She leads two retreat experiences: an “inner work” retreat bubble focused on creativity, mental health, and self-trust — and a curated group travel format designed for mindful travelers who want connection and adventure without the heavy, all-day processing.Meg’s work blends gateless creative writing, breathwork, Kundalini-inspired practices, sound healing, music-led embodiment, and creative play — with a clear agenda and structure, plus intuitive flow inside the container. She’s built a large audience through honest sharing around health and personal growth, including the food–mood connection, Lyme disease, grief, and hormonal health in midlife.Website: www.megsylvester.comBook: The Body Positivity Journal: Inspirational Prompts and Practices to Boost Self-Love and AcceptanceSocial Media: Instagram | YouTubeAbout the Assemble PodcastWelcome to the Assemble Podcast.
