What if you could try ON the woman you're becoming before you had to defend her to anyone back home?
Six days. Six women. All exploring One very magical question:
what is your soul asking you to embody with your whole being?
Symphony of the Seas May 2-May 8th 2027
Imagine you are excited about a new creative idea. You share with someone you love, and they say, “Well, that’s a lot of work, what’s the point?” and inside you feel the stories stir of what you used to believe, but you stay rooted in your knowing, and respond with a knowing smile and respond, “Because it’s where my nudge is leading me, and I’m looking forward to seeing what comes of it.” You say it with your head held high, and your body staying grounded the whole ride home. No constant replaying in your head, no guilt on deciding to try something new, just pure clarity and peace in your bones.
That’s what the $2,500 is for. The midnight pizza and Joy Cruise is how you get there. Why a cruise? Partially because I love them, and also because nobody knows you out there. You can be anybody. You get to try on the woman you're becoming before you have to explain or defend her to anyone back home. You get to embody her fully, surrounded by other powerhouse amazing women who see you fully and are here for it.
And there's something about the ocean that brings a deeper magic, the sheer depth and width of it, how genuinely enormous it is that rearranges a person. You stand at the rail and your problems find their actual size. You're surrounded by people from a hundred different places, speaking a hundred different languages, and not one of them needs anything from you, except to know if you want a salt rim on your mocktail.
So you get to relax, truly. You get to laugh, loudly. You get to take up space, and also wear the most ridiculously fabulous cruise clothes you’ve dreamed of because (as Mufasa would say) it is time.
You get to play, both with your life, your business, your dreams, your desires, and not just by yourself, or in your head or on a screen. In person, over breakfast, or while sitting in my suite looking over as water rushes past. Being adorned in henna and Finklepott’s Original Fairy Hair® and feeling like you.
And if you've ever been to a retreat where you got stuck in a bunk with someone you didn't click with, or the food was… a choice, that's not this. You get to choose your own adventure. You pay to cover your experience with me, and then you buy your cruise. This is full-on decadence, and my high-touch support in whatever is on your mind, and to live out your best cruise life side by side with me all 6 days.
Want your own suite? Fabulous, rock it out.
Want to split an interior cabin with another attendee? We’ll have a facebook group for ya’ll to sort it out.
You get to choose what indulgence for you looks like. Whether you want to go on extra excursions, or chill on the beach, or read the day away by the pool in the solarium.
You can even choose to pair this with your family vacation, and spend time with your family, and then come hang with us ladies for breakfast and half of each day, and get the best of both worlds!
You can choose to get the drink package or not; you don’t have to worry about whether it’s vegetarian meals, vegan, or steak, because there’s a buffet and sit-down meals, and EVERYONE gets exactly what they want.
It’s retreat magic without the retreat gamble.
What’s included
In the three months before we sail
Twice a month 60-minute private call with me. Just us. Before the trip, to cultivate the vibe you want to step into and claim, and energetically staple into this next adventure.
Group calls with the other women. We meet, we dream out loud, we get to know each other so nobody's a stranger at the gangway.
A private Facebook group and chat. For coordinating outfits, vibes, themes, "does anyone have a spare tiara," the whole thing. Half the joy is the anticipation and you know it.
On the ship
☕ Beautiful Breakfast — every single morning One hour. Same place. The Windjammer makes it easy with buffet. Every day. I'll be there. Come sit down, come dream, come talk about the day ahead or the night before. No agenda, no pressure, just a table that's always yours to come join in on.
Open invitation to join me where I am. In the morning, I’ll share what I’m planning to get up to during the day and invite you along, whether it’s a show, the piano parlor, or trivia. Come join me. This is the best part: DOING the cruise together. We get to laugh, eat, explore together. Sometimes it’ll just be me and you, or all seven of us, or four of us. Maybe two people go on an excursion, two others go to the spa, and three of us go to the top deck to vibe. This is not a you-don’t-know-what-to-do-with-yourself cruise; there is always an invitation from somewhere or something to join in! We'll talk about life, enjoy ourselves, and weave in conversation about business or your dreams. This is the flow of it all, of just, “Of course this gets to be my life!”
💎 Two hours of one-on-one time in my suite This is your time and you get to choose what it is. Energy work. Dreaming. Planning. Untangling the thing you've been circling for a year. Whatever support you need in that time, I’ve got you.
🍽️ Two group dinners All six of us, one table, one long delicious night. Twice.
🎒 A swag bag full of goodies Because arriving to presents is a love language, and you know joy mail is good, so imagine how good a joy swag bag will be!
🛁 Hot tub hangs, deck chats, and unstructured wandering Some of the best things happen at 10pm in a hot tub. Midnight Pizza is one of the highlights of the cruise, and we’ll get our pizza and go to the top deck, and eat and dream while endless ocean and stars watch us. Another evening is us cackling with face masks, and snacks and having just girl together time. We’ll have a group chat so you can be like “I’m headed to this show, who wants to join” and others can hop in, or meet up for lunch. The connection is always there, how much you want to do together is in your hands!
🥂 A family + guests lunch If you brought people, this is where everyone gathers. Partners, kids, your sister who came along for the ride. One big joyful table.
🌙 Breathing room This is deliberate. I’ve planned the big anchors, and I’ll be available throughout the cruise to hang out, dream, and talk. And full permission to take time during the cruise for your own explorations of excursions, shows, naps, reading, staring at water, mulling, soaking in, and thinking about what's actually possible now!
Up to 50 strands of Finklepott’s Original Fairy Hair®. You didn’t think you could leave less sparkly than you came, right? This is an elegant upleveling of claiming your full self, and you can choose your colors, whether festive and bright, or blending with your hair color, looking like you just walked out of one of your favorite fae books. ;-)
After
The Reveling and Reflecting. Both a 1:1 and a Community Call to share favorite moments, reflect, and double-stamp all of the goodness that happened.
Come be the extravagance, be the version of you that fills your cup and nourishes your soul.
Ready to put your toes in the sand?
It's a make-your-own-adventure, built out of joy and delight and long-overdue TLC.
It's you and five other women claiming the next depth of who they want to be:
Standing taller, anchoring into light and abundance and, joy. Just for the sheer rightness of it.
You could go on a cruise by yourself or your family. You absolutely could.
Or you could come with US.
Where you remember your magic, and hear the call of your soul, and claim every last bit of it.
"Therapy's all in my head. You get me in my body."
Three different women have said that to me, almost word-for-word.
I've spent fifteen years learning what happens when I’m holding space for someone at the same moment she finally says the hard thing she has been avoiding. Your body is learning that the hard thing and being absolutely delighted in are happening in the same hour. After that, you stop saving joy for once you've earned it, you stop apologizing for being able to listen to your nudge, and start making space for it to sing. You move faster, and breathe deeper.
On the ship you'll have two hours in my suite that belong fully to you and all your expansive awesomeness. You bring in the things you've been circling around for a year (or longer), and we don't talk about them, we work with them. Outside of that is deepening into the work you put in before we ever stepped on the ship, the soul care, the energy work, the cruise is where you walk the talk in your sparkly kaftan. Where you practice asking for what you need, and we dream bigger, and you sink fully into the you that you’ve been dreaming of for years.
There's a moment my women hit in a session of realizing their potency, and it sounds like this. "Oh, you mean I can have a relationship with my body that’s rooted in kindness? Oh, you mean I can actually shield? Oh, you mean I can talk to God on my fucking own?"
Yes ma'am, you can.
And because I'll know you and your energy by then, because we’ll have multiple calls beforehand, the cruise is less learning and more living it out and practicing in real time in calibration with me and my joy and practices.
You are not paying $2,500 to hang out with me. You're paying because I can see what's going on in your field and I know what to do about it.
Meet your guide
Hi, I’m Aj, the Joy Weaver
An Intuitive Soul Coach, henna artist, and glitter enthusiast who believes joy isn't selfish - it's essential fuel for showing up in this wild world. I'm also a hot chocolate connoisseur, military spouse in Mississippi with two pups and way too many houseplants, and the author of Red Thread: Weaving an Embodied Life of Joy.
I created this Joy Cruise because my first cruise CHANGED ME, I was like WHO IS THIS WOMAN who is just luxuriously reading by the pool, and strutting around in her favorite clothes without a care in the world. I felt like me at 110%, but in an easy, embodied, decadent way I didn’t know I could access like that. I left that cruise determined to bring cruise Aj back to my everyday land life.
This isn’t about you not being embodied enough or doing the work, if you are reading this, you’ve done the things, you’ve had support, you’ve been doing the mindset, this is about embodying your next level in a space outside your normal day-to-day to enable you to dream bigger and listen more deeply. This is about remembering that taking care of yourself, doing things that light you up, and choosing joy are the things your bones desire and crave. It’s about taking the vacation because you can, and not apologizing for it. It’s to quiet that voice in your head says you're too old, too young, too much, or not enough, because girl, that is so 1888 calling with that story.
Over the last 15 years of leading Red Tents, retreats, and workshops internationally, I've seen what happens when people give themselves permission to step into their full selves. The ripple effects are extraordinary.
So this week on the cruise is about soaking into you, future tripping, double stamping, twirling, laughing, buffets and leaning into it all together.
So much of our lives is online, this is real world, in person, hugs, sparkles, and memories.
We're going all out my friends. This is embodied joyful luxury indulgence for no other reason than you want it and you are ready and we aren’t apologizing for it, and I couldn't be more excited.
Come play mermaids with me,
Aj
The through line of it all
This adventure is about the liminal in-between of who you are and who you are becoming. This is about claiming and stepping into, and being a little (or a lot) bold; this is us laughing at karaoke and encouraging you to go belt a song; this is us double-stamping your dream and future-tripping.
This is about embodying your future you NOW, in the present, and being HER on the cruise, about calibrating to a new way of letting ease and possibilities anchor into your being while we lay anchor in Hondurous, or while you get a massage in Mexico and then come chat on the lounge chairs together about the next idea you have and how it can happen.
This is less logistics, and more possibilities. This is less doing, and more being. This is less stress, and more cackling. This is less proper, and more razzle dazzle. This is about letting play, joy, and your dreams coalesce for you to claim your whole ass self, and crank it to the max and having people say “Yes, please can we have some more.”
This is the space where your muchness is very much approved, and you are encouraged to shine.
