Otherworld.
Five nights between mountain and sea. For the woman who knows there's more, and is ready to go and find it.
A lush space of your own, wedged between rainforest and sea.
Little sandy toes. A beach so secluded it feels like your own. Swims before breakfast, time in the villages, slow meals.
You're activated. You're rested. This is your dream becoming a reality.
Emptiness won't get you up and going. Ecstasy will.
This is for the woman done with domestication. The one asking, is this really it? Selling herself to the hustle, the chores, the art that doesn't even feel like hers anymore.
She wants to feel alive. Heat on her skin. Salt in her hair. Time to hear her own intuition again. Women around her with big dreams, who want a life to match.
Change her world, and she comes back alive.
Welcomed in, not looking on.
I've spent time building real relationships with the women here, slowly, with respect, over shared meals and many conversations. Because of that, you'll be welcomed in. You'll make pottery beside the women of the pottery village. And you'll step into the homes and intimate lives of village women I've built a bond with, for a live shoot held with their blessing, where emotional storytelling comes first and perfection gives way to truth.
You can't book this anywhere else. It exists because of trust, and you're being invited into it.
Between mountain and sea.
Born from my time living in Lombok and the relationship I've built with the community and village there. A villa by the sea, fifteen minutes from central Kuta, held between the mountains and lush rainforest, with waterfalls close by and secluded beaches that feel like your own private oasis.
- A morning ritual of breath, movement and mindfulness, every day, with ocean swims and creative writing
- Nourishing whole food. Breakfast every morning, three long dinners together and lunch in the village
- A sunset sail
- A live shoot, run by me, inside the homes and intimate lives of village women I'm close to. Emotional storytelling at the forefront: how we make art from our own vision, and trade perfection for truth.
- Workshop materials for creative expansion to take home, so it doesn't end when you leave
- A pottery workshop with the women of the village, using wild clay from the land
- Fire on the beach on our first night
- A sunset boogie. A DJ, dancing and dinner on the beach
- A daily rhythm and creative practices to rewire you
- Time in between to roam, surf, book a massage, nap or read
Our days move in a spiral.
Every morning returns to the same ritual of breath, movement and mindfulness, and each time you go a little deeper.
Five nights that belong to you.
Waking in your own room above the sea, with nowhere you need to be.
Swimming until your shoulders forget how to hold tension. Lying in the sun like you're nineteen again.
Words pouring out of you at sunrise, faster than your pen can catch them.
Sitting with the women of the village, laughing with people you share no language with, and understanding each other completely.
Standing in a world you were trusted to enter while a story unfolds through the lens, and feeling the way you used to see come rushing back. There it is.
The sail filling. The sky on fire. Then music on the sand, and your body moving before your mind can stop it.
This is the more you've been asking for.
You stop asking "is this it?" Because you know it isn't.
- Art made for no one but you, and the nerve to keep making it.
- Your intuition, loud again, and you trust it over everyone else's noise.
- A clear picture of the life and art you actually want, not the one you settled for.
- Women with big dreams on speed dial, who'll hold you to yours.
- Workshop materials for creative expansion, so the fire doesn't fade when the tan does.
“Another step closer on my journey home, back to myself, relearning what it means to trust my own intuition. It's going to get so good.”
Sasha, Rogue Artist community“I felt like I was meeting my creative twin. So many goosebump moments and deep conversations.”

Mentoring clientI'm Lauren. The Rogue Artist.
Artist, photographer, writer, business owner, mother. I've built businesses, raised children and lost touch with my own creative fire along the way.
I found it again at a ranch that brought me back to life. And in Lombok, where I lived alongside village women, immersed in a world that changed how I saw everything.
Those experiences changed me. Now I create immersive creative residencies for women ready to step outside the familiar and feel that kind of aliveness for themselves.
Through wild clay, emotional storytelling in photography, creative writing and the places we travel, I bring women together to make, explore, challenge their perspective and reconnect with the parts of themselves that everyday life can bury.
Extraordinary places. Wild creativity. Room to become more yourself.
I built the residencies I needed, and couldn't find.
