You feel the stir - the voice inside that you're here for More.
You know something must change.
You yearn to feel ALIVE, whole, free.
Being stuck is no longer an option.
You won't let fear and unworthiness win.

You're no longer willing to accept crumbs.
You hear the call for a higher purpose.
For joy. For playfulness. For sensuality.
You're ready to step into your leadership.

Welcome to W, The New Way to WOMAN.
The WOMAN Way of the Fierce Feminine
Where Pleasure, Play, Purpose, and Power meet to live an extraordinary life.

Sister, you were born for this moment.
Join us for the 5 month journey to owning youR life as a queen.

JOIN W!

The old way to “WOMAN” isn’t working. do you:


-Worry about what others think and let it stop you.
-Exhaust yourself by saying “yes” and then have no space for you.
-Stay silent about what you want then rage like a bitch
-Doubt your intuition and abilities
-Berate yourself. Beat yourself up. Call yourself names
-Wait until it’s "perfect" before you launch your dream.
-Do the "shoulds" more than the "wants"
-Blame others... and/or Blame Yourself
-Believe you aren’t worthy.
-Hustle, force, try to “make” it work,
-Feel like you have to PROVE yourself.
-Hide in fear and shame, and let trauma hold you back.

-Constantly try to please everyone else first.

It's EXHAUSTING AND OVERWHELMING.

You end up depleted, lacking boundaries, faking it, putting yourself last, stuck in fear, and feeling resentful.

Frankly, you’re too awesome to live that way anymore.
But Sister – there’s a better way:

"Being part of the W program was a transformative experience.

The way Carin holds space for women is magical. Carin creates an atmosphere where we feel safe and inspired to be our most authentic selves, to be seen at our most vulnerable, and to be supported by and able to support other women.

The exercises and tools we were given are invaluable. It was a privilege for me to witness other women’s transformations, while subtly experiencing my own."

- Susan S.

"Working with Carina is magical! She is incredible at creating a safe container, and the women she attracts into her community are amazing. Carina supports you, really sees you and your essence, and will lovingly call you on your BS that holds you back. The Way of Woman has been life-changing, and the women I have met have become some of my closest friends. You will not be the same woman at the end of your journey with her- she is transformational."

Why w?
you can't do life powerfully alone

It's exhausting to be a WOMAN.

The world tells you you aren't good enough. Makes you feel stupid for your big dreams. Wants you to play small.

Who you surround yourself with matters. Surround yourself with like hearted women who believe in WOMAN power, who want to see you thrive and shine, who are dedicated to living an extraordinary life!


W is the Sisterhood that changes the world TOGETHER.
These are the TOOLS of WOMAN.


Life can be hard. The world is falling apart.
We all have shit – and
your ability to turn that shit into fertilizer will make the difference in whether you live a magical, extraordinary life – or not.

"I loved being in community and having women witness me. I love being seen and heard in a safe container. I loved my one on one time with Carina. I loved my small group poddess, the new friendships and connections I made. I gained more clarity around my purpose with teaching children and working with families. I learned new tools to use. I had a lot of fun playing with my feminine. Starting my day in my feminine.


I have gained more confidence in myself as a feminine being. I have more self validation and self approval. W is a community for me to cry and recover my true self. I leaned that I can retell my story and find the gifts in the pain. I have had the space to celebrate myself and be big and take up space. I have also been able to meet other women and watch them grow.


I would encourage all women to join W if they are looking to connect to their inner confidence as a woman. W is a place where women find true friends and sisters. It’s a community where women learn about themselves in a safe container. W has been a place for me to be seen and heard. I have connected to the parts of my feminine that needed to attention."

- Michelle A. 

"I have been pondering how to express my transformation into a new Woman through the W program. I learned a joyous and healthy way to get through this "thing called life". I learned to love myself. I learned a new way to think. I learned new tools that make all the ups and downs and feelings and messiness of life fucking miraculous. I remembered how my soul danced and swayed with the tides of my body and my life experiences. I remembered to rise in my divine power by reclaiming the perfection of me. How do you explain all of this?


I no longer feel lonely. I no longer feel less-than...
My body has done battle and it shows. I had not looked at myself in a full length mirror in over a decade due to self loathing. I squinted looking at photos of myself to distort my vision. With the support of my sisters, I looked into that mirror. It was terrifying! And.... I am beautiful. And whole. And holy.


I met a group of women. We were strangers in November. Now they are among my dearest friends. Even better, I am drawing new like-minded women to me in my hometown. We were meant for sisterhood, not the catty things we are taught. I walk the world in the new way to Woman. It is glorious!"

- Jennifer VanKerckvoorde

Hi, I'm carin,
(But you can call me Carina!)

My clients call me “The Women’s Whisperer”. I've inspired tens of thousands of women as a women's empowerment coach for 12 years, podcaster of a top 30 ranked show in Self-Help, and a speaker for companies like Amazon.

As the founder of the Institute of WOMAN, and the world’s leading expert on Women’s Happiness, I free visionary women to lead the world with purpose, power, pleasure and play. I'm committed to women speaking their voices, creating their legacies, feeling turned on and sexy, living fully alive, joyful lives - and doing it together in Sisterhood. Our radiance will smash the patriarchy.

I'm here to reclaim the word "WOMAN" as the most powerful force on the planet. I have my master's degree in positive psychology from an Ivy League university, where I've been an adjunct professor, I speak at companies like LinkedIn and Victoria's Secret and I've led more than 20 women's empowerment events for thousands of women. As the author of “Wonderful YOU”, and the host of The PurposeGirl Podcast, with 600,000+ downloads, I've trained tens of thousands of women to pursue their purpose with pleasure, power and passion and am ready to serve you, Sister.

I live outside of Philly with my hubby, who is also my business partner, and our 3 year old son, who is a miracle, as I gave birth at 45. He's still a gift daily.

What is it like to work with Carina?

"(Carina) Has such a gift. She has the ability to see, honor, celebrate and encourage & inspire each of us uniquely and all of us collectively. I felt witnessed, cherished, celebrated, encouraged, accepted, & loved from Day 1. And after working together, it feels like a connection that will last and last. The bonds and love forged are real and deep."

- Jaime L.

“I don't really have words for working with Carina. She really is the woman whisperer, and though she might sometimes push you to the edges, she does it lovingly and while having your

back. Working with her is edgy at times, but doing the exercises full out and staying with it and through through it liberated me and gave me empowerment."If you're considering working with Carina, do it. I mean seriously, do it!"

- Venla

"I am incredibly grateful for having found you…your impact on me, my life is not to be described with words…"

- Marjolein V

"I am afloat because of the things you have taught me. I actually want to do more with you. Thank you for what you have added to my life, you are AMAZING!!!! Joining your program was one of the best decisions of my whole life!"

- Wendy

"Working with Carina has been truly life changing, in a way that nothing else has. She opened my eyes to a whole new way of thinking, feeling and perceiving my life and this world that I am part of.

Carina’s incredible mix of talents –including an expertise in positive psychology, a deeply intuitive nature, a strong focus on purpose, a love for coaching others, and a natural charisma – position her uniquely to make a profound impact in the lives of those who choose to work with her.

My fulfillment, relationships, emotions and confidence have all improved dramatically since working with Carin.

I’m deeply grateful to her for sharing her gifts with me, and I’d recommend her services to any woman who wants a more fulfilling life!"

- Jessica

"Working with Carina has been life altering.

When I first met Carin I was at a crossroads in my life— I was at an impasse in my career and personal relationships, my inner critic wasn't particularly kind, and I felt anxious and lost.

Carina truly works magic. She completely altered my perception of my place in the world in a positive way, and she gave me the tools I needed to be a more confident and authentic version of myself.

I (feel) grounded and energized. Since working with Carina, I am more open, I smile and laugh more, and I see the world as a place full of mystery and wonder."

- Libby

FAQ

How big is the group?
There will be about 20 women in this group.


Will I get focused attention?
Yes, you'll get lots of focused time and attention from me, Carina.


Will I like the other women?
If you're like me and most women, you have some wounding around women. From mean girls at school or on the PTA, your mom, sister, etc. That's normal. The healing will change your life, and the lives of your daughters, nieces, and all you touch. Only women can heal this wound when together, so I take my job of creating safety as the utmost importance.
This is a safe and sacred space to bring all of you and be LOVED for YOU. Obviously, we can't guarantee how you'll feel about the other women, but I've facilitated many online programs and retreats, and women have consistently LOVED each other! Many become friends for life. I genuinely believe I attract the best women on the planet.


Can I get a refund?
Because of the nature of coaching and retreats, please understand that refunds are not possible.


Will my photo be taken at the retreat and used for promotion?
We will take photos throughout the retreats for ourselves, and appropriate pictures will be shared online for other women to see the experience of retreats with me so that they can have the same experience. If you don't want your photo to be used online, that's perfect too. Just let me, Carina, know in advance and we'll make sure it is not!


What is included in the retreat?
Travel to the retreat is not included, but all coaching and activities are.
