A special community connection: The excitement doesn't stop with the music! We're proud to share that one of the band members, Jen Deraspe, spent over two decades as the beloved founder and owner of Nurture through Nature eco-retreat center in Denmark, Maine. As co-owner of Highland Lake Resort, I've had the privilege of following Jen's rich journey in bringing a message of wholeness, healing, reverence and joy to our region. Although she has since moved to the Portland area, she remains deeply committed to her work, leading spiritual, nature-based retreats, and facilitating Qi Gong and drumming circles. In addition, she has created the Women's School for Spiritual Warriors which creates a safe, transformative space for women's empowerment and leadership. FMI: https://www.spiralsofwellbeing.com/
