Inner Sun
Step Out of Your Life, And Back Into Yourself
Hosted by Susan the Sage
A curated 8-day journey through Ecuador’s cloud forest and Andes designed to help you release, reconnect, and return fully aligned.
June 16 – 23, 2026 · Ecuador · 8 Days / 7 Nights
There comes a moment where you feel it,
something in your life is ready to shift.
Not forcefully. Not dramatically.
But deeply.
You can’t always explain it.
But you know it’s time.
This experience was created for that moment.

About Susan
Susan the Sage’s work is shaped by both depth of study and breadth of lived experience.
She has spent over 10 years studying yoga, healing, esoteric teachings, and shamanic practices. She is trained in Vinyasa, Kundalini, Yin, and trauma-informed yoga, with continued study in mindfulness, meditation, nervous system regulation, vibrational sound, Reiki, Access Bars, Theta Healing, Past Life Regression, and Life Coaching. Her work supports people in understanding their patterns, regulating their nervous systems, and reconnecting to themselves through practical, embodied tools.
Before stepping fully into this field, Susan built a career in marketing, communications, media production, and operations, working in high-responsibility, client-facing roles and managing teams, projects, and large-scale events. This experience informs the way she leads today, bringing clarity, structure, and a strong sense of presence into every space she creates.
In 2018, she founded The Sageuary, a Miami-based space for gatherings, workshops, and experiential group practices. Through The Sageuary, she has created and hosted events that bring people together in a way that feels natural, connected, and accessible.
Family and Systemic Constellations are a central part of her work.
Susan is a co-host of a 10 Module Family Constellations Facilitator Training, where she supports the development of practitioners and the expansion of this work into wider communities. Her approach integrates systemic awareness into how individuals understand relationships, patterns, and inherited dynamics.
She is also the host of The SageFull Living Podcast, where she explores spirituality, healing, conscious living, and real-life integration through thoughtful and accessible conversations.
What distinguishes Susan’s work is her ability to integrate multiple worlds. She understands the demands of a full, high-functioning life while also honoring the pull toward something deeper.
Awakening the Inner Sun reflects this integration. It is a carefully designed experience that brings together environment, practice, and guidance to support meaningful internal shifts.
Not to become someone new, but to return to yourself with greater clarity and connection.
