What a week. HOEM Mendocino marked our second retreat and was filled with relaxation, deep conversation, new friendships, delicious food (including some local foraged mushrooms) movement and so much more. While we reflect on our time together, we wanted to share the deep gratitude for our attendees, vendors, community, staff and beautiful slice of Mother Earth where the redwoods meet the sea for making this experience so special. Until next time. 🌞

Meet Emme, founder of @articlesincommon — an outdoor gear marketplace using resale to fund climate action.

Through initiatives like The Resole Project [a circular initiative that unites climbing gyms, cobblers, and footwear brands to extend the life of climbing shoes using Emme’s experience in product development and manufacturing connections] and Wild for Climate [a media platform uniting women across the outdoor and climate sectors with environmentalists, activists, and creatives], Emme is redefining what it means to live and adventure responsibly — choosing used over new and planet over profit.

We’re thrilled to welcome Emme to join us at the HOEM Retreat, with a sponsored spot by @protectourwinters, in recognition of her incredible commitment to climate action and reshaping outdoor stewardship through creativity and purpose.

Alright ladies, we couldn’t wait any longer to share the official announcement that HOEM is headed to Mendocino, California October 21-24, 2025 at the beautiful @heartwood_mendocino!

THE PROPERTY // Heartwood Mendocino is a GORGEOUS property just minutes from Mendocino’s beaches, parks and sweet town, yet private and quiet as it is surrounded by 50,000 acre state forest with world class hiking and biking trails directly accessed from your cabin.

Around the giant redwoods and meadows they have sprinkled in the most amazing little cabins and deluxe bath house. In addition to beautiful handcrafted details throughout the property, you will also find the VIRAL redwood tree shower that you surely will fall in love with.

Not only is the property truly breathtaking, it’s also one that is near and dear to our hearts— and so are the amazing people behind it… which is why we are honored to announce this as our next HOEM!

THE EXPERIENCE // This time we have added an additional night to give ample time for education, yoga, retreat enhancements and relaxation. Our hope is to continue to create a community of female business owners, creatives, marketers and freelancers to uplift one another, have open conversations and leave feeling both rested and inspired.

Will we see you there?!

Last week we gathered beneath the trees, shared stories by the creek and returned to the creative roots that live in each of us all from the comfort of @constellationcreek.

To everyone who showed up fully — with your stories, your ideas and your openness — thank you. We created something truly special together. The retreat reminded us that slowing down makes space for what matters.

Thank you to the beautiful community of women that made this weekend unforgettable. Ready for the next one? We will be launching next week with more details coming soon.

That’s a wrap on HOEM’s inaugural sold out retreat in the Lost Sierra! We couldn’t have dreamt of better conversations, women, backdrop at @constellationcreek and weather. While we will dive deeper into a full recap, we wanted to share a few snapshots of moments throughout our time together. Big love to all the ladies who made this retreat so special, unforgettable and fun. Until next time. 🌞

That’s a wrap on HOEM’s inaugural sold out retreat in the Lost Sierra! We couldn’t have dreamt of better conversations, women, backdrop at @constellationcreek and weather. While we will dive deeper into a full recap, we wanted to share a few snapshots of moments throughout our time together. Big love to all the ladies who made this retreat so special, unforgettable and fun. Until next time. 🌞

We are over the moon to welcome our attendees for our FIRST @cominghoem in less than a week. The magic of @constellationcreek was in full force during last night’s walkthrough with the rushing creek, sunshine, blooming lilacs and sweet goats.

We can’t wake to make our first @cominghoem memories here with a great group of women gathering from near and far. 🌞

We’re so excited to expand HOEM beyond just business — because creativity, connection and growth all flourish when you step outside the usual hustle. The Lost Sierra retreat will include some truly special experiences:

• Plein Air Pines — an exclusive outdoor painting workshop led by Truckee-based artist Valerie Lanthier (@valeriestyle_art). Valerie is a Plein Air painter based in Truckee. Her work often depicts women in moments of quiet reflection. By painting outdoors, she practices the art of staying present in an increasingly noisy world.
You can find her work at @mountainartscollective in Downtown Truckee, or through her instagram @valeriestyle_art

She’ll guide us in practicing presence and creativity while surrounded by the beauty of the pines. No painting experience needed — just an open heart and a willingness to slow down.

• Outdoor Yoga Sessions with @theyogipoet — dynamic, soulful experiences crafted by Kellee Rich, E-RYT, YACEP, and founder of Wild Soul Events. Through mindfulness practices, gentle movement, and outdoor exploration, Kellee will help you reconnect with your body, your spirit, and the natural world — giving you the clarity and inspiration to fuel your next creative chapter.

• Sardine Lake + Sierra Buttes Excursion — we’ll close the retreat with an optional special send-off adventure to one of the most stunning places in the Lost Sierra. Crystal-clear waters, towering granite peaks, and that wild, soul-stirring feeling you only get deep in nature — the perfect place to soak in everything you’ve experienced before heading home.

HOEM is about more than business. It’s about building a life, business, and creative practice that feels full, vibrant, and true to you. We can’t wait to share it with you. 🌞

Spring reminds us of re-birth and new beginnings.

It’s a season of fresh energy—when everything starts to come alive again. A time to reflect, realign, and ask: What do I want to create in the months ahead?

Today, we plant the seeds that will become our garden tomorrow—and our harvest in the fall.

My best ideas always come when I allow myself time to just be. After all, we’re human beings, not human doings. Sometimes the most powerful thing you can do—for yourself and your work—is pause.

This retreat was created as an opportunity to reconnect with your purpose, find clarity, and lay the foundation for how you want to move into summer—those longer daylight hours and that naturally busier time.

With nature as our backdrop, we’ll tune in to the rhythm of the seasons and remember what it feels like to move in harmony with the earth. When we sync up with the natural flow of the planet, we come back to ourselves.

Let’s move, breathe, and set intentions together.
This is your season to begin again—with purpose.

Before tickets go live Friday at 9AM PST, we wanted to introduce the ladies behind HOEM.

Photo 2: Meet Holly Shankland— a Truckee-based photographer who captures moments of love and adventure.

With 17 years behind the lens, dating back to her darkroom days in high school, photography remains her greatest passion. When she’s not shooting, you’ll likely find her chasing snow, hanging with her dog Harper, listening to bluegrass, or planning her next big adventure.

Holly is also deeply passionate about helping creatives and entrepreneurs build authentic brands and show up confidently as themselves.

Photo 3: Meet Em Deane Kelley, a graphic designer and the proud female business owner of Locals Creative—a boutique creative agency. Raised in rural Maine, her deep appreciation for small towns and the outdoors eventually brought her to Truckee, California.

Outside of the office, she can often be found road-tripping with her dog and husband, mountain biking, enjoying bluegrass shows with friends, or relaxing by a campfire with family.

Through her work, Em uses her business as a platform to advocate for community causes, environmental protection, and human rights. With the outdoors engrained in her DNA, she strives to inspire those around her to speak up and protect the places they love most.

When finding a place for our first retreat, we knew we wanted it to be close to Truckee, among nature and in a place for guests to feel at HOEM to enable their creativity to thrive.

@constellationcreek is a serene, remote cabin resort located just 30 minutes away from Downtown Truckee. Nestled into the forest, the property is the perfect place to stargaze, unwind and connect with fellow female creatives and business owners around a campfire. As past guests, we guarantee the soothing sound of the creek will wash away your worries and that the Sierra Sunshine will recharge your creativity.

Tag a friend who you’d love to share one of these dreamy cabins with and follow @cominghoem for more updates.
