Watch out for this lady, her team and her retreats coming up! "

Amanda Walker (Deep river ON)

We had little gift bags on our beds and ate the most delicious food, while having the most amazing experiences. We had many laughs & cries while sharing so much joy. I worked through some anxiety issues I have dealt with my whole life and look forward to going back.

"From the moment I arrived I felt at home. I had this amazing peaceful energy come over me the instant I met Tasha and her husband Shane."

Dawn F (Ottawa ON)

Tasha & Shane have created a space that’s serene yet engaging - it’s there just encouraging you to explore! I dare you not to fall in love with those horses!! I can't wait to get there again!

"If there’s another place in Ontario that’s as peaceful as this property, I haven’t found it yet. " 

Caroline (Ottawa, ON)

Stocked with books, healing crystals, and fresh towels. The beds were extremely comfortable and everything was clean. Our hosts, Tasha and Shane were so friendly and welcoming and made sure we had everything we needed at all times. They took us boating on the Ottawa River where we spent the day soaking up the sun on the beach and had lots of laughs. The entire experience was so peaceful and rejuvenating, we can not wait to go back!

"My girls weekend at the Sunkissed Retreat was unforgettable! The A Frame accommodation was decorated beautifully making an incredibly comfortable and peaceful atmosphere."

Jennifer S (Pembroke ON)

Sleeping quarters are all newly renovated. Between the beautiful sunsets and fires on the beach to spending time with the horses we weren't disappointed. Tasha always has something to teach and share. I learn something from her every time we are together!

"If you are looking for a rare and special place to unwind and feed your soul, you need to check out Sunkissed Healing Co's 3-day retreat. Beautiful, breathtaking views of the Ottawa River. Acres and acres of land to roam on."

Danika V (Ottawa ON)

The A-frame style cabin is a unique stay and feels so cozy. Our hosts Tasha and Shane ensured we enjoyed every minute of our stay and showed us the best time. I can’t say enough good things about this little slice of heaven. If you’re in need of a healing and transformative weekend, this is the spot!

"My weekend at Sunkissed Healing Co. was nothing short of magical. We spent the weekend in the sun, the fresh air, the water, and by the fire. The accommodations were stunningly furnished and incredibly clean."

Holly Allard (Petawawa ON)

Our stay in the A frame was simply beautiful in every way. It had everything we needed and very comfortable. The hosts Tasha and Shane made us feel so welcomed and helped guide us to our inner peace. I’ve never felt so alive and happy during my stay and I highly recommend this retreat for anyone! I already can’t wait to go back!

"The Awaken what’s Possible retreat was exactly what I needed to connect with myself again."

danielle smith (cobden ON)

The afternoons spent on the river and beach are so relaxing, and the sunsets overlooking the hills are outstanding. The night is capped with a bonfire, where countless laughs and stories are exchanged.

Accommodations are beautiful and clean, and you can tell thought has been put into all the little details to make your experience even more special. I highly recommend unplugging and unwinding at their little slice of paradise, you will leave feeling recharged.

"Tasha and Shane are wonderful hosts who go above and beyond to make you feel relaxed and cared for. There is nothing more calming than having a coffee with the horses in the morning and just hearing the sounds of them munching hay."

PROMISE

Welcome, love!

i'm tasha!

I believe healing and transformation are best paired with laughter, nature, and a dash of adventure.

MEET THE HOST

For much of my life I carried painful childhood memories with me. So after my 14 year old daughter's tragic passing in 2018 and after fighting cancer for 9 years, I was determined to turn my pain into purpose.

Before I was catapulted into the world of energy therapy, I designed my own personal development toolbox for creating space where others can kick up their feet and transition into their true being.

I have poured my heart and soul into creating a relaxing, life-changing retreat that is perfectly balanced with good food, beautiful sunsets and fun. I'm excited to welcome you here! 



I’m an Integrated Energy Practitioner with a flair for creating unforgettable experiences.

Join us for a transformative journey!

XO, TASHA

We will not be serving alcohol. You’re more than welcome to bring your own, as you’ll have a fridge in the A-frame cabin. Remember that we get up at sunrise so you do you! As for technology, we encourage you to disconnect. There is wifi available for you- although country living makes it unstable at times!

Nature is calling.
Are you in?

We strongly recommend that you follow the itinerary in order to get the best results from the retreats. However, it’s also about following your own inner guidance/intuition and if you need to do your thing, in your own time, we respect that.

Surrender to the beauty and healing culture of Awaken What Possible Retreat, nestled on 14 acres in the breathtaking Whitewater Region. Escape to nature’s paradise and unwind, reconnect, and rejuvenate.

Welcome

I've been where you are. For a long time I felt called to heal my heart and didn’t know where to start. I often felt confused and empty with no energy left - not for myself or my family.  

It took a lot of soul-searching to realize that life doesn’t have to be that way.
