CACAO CEREMONY + DANCEHeart Beat is ceremony and celebration held in one space, at the same time. We open with cacao, traditional, grounded, heart-first and move into a live DJ set that turns the ceremony into a full-body experience.
If you're a retreat holder, festival organiser, or event host looking for something your people will actually talk about afterward, this is bookable for your event.
RETREAT BYRON BAYJoin us for a 3-night retreat designed to help you reclaim your magic, a sacred homecoming to your truth, your body, and your light. Together in sisterhood, we’ll journey through powerful rituals, cacao ceremonies, voice and womb activation, energy healing and deep soul connection. This is a space to let go, remember who you are, and rise into your radiant power. Over these days, you’ll soften, shed, and reawaken, leaving grounded, clear, and deeply reconnected to your essence.
Hi my love, I’m Cass!
It’s so beautiful to have you here.
I didn't go looking for this work. It found me through a friend, at the exact moment my world was splitting open. My mum was sick with cancer. I was pregnant with my first child.
I started sitting with cacao every day — just me and whatever was underneath. It was the only place I could actually cry, actually feel, instead of holding it together for everyone else. When she passed and my son was born weeks apart, cacao is what held me through it. Not poetically but physically. Like being mothered when my own mother was gone.
That's when I knew this wasn't a passing thing.
Now, my mission is to guide women back to their true selves through the same medicine that put me back together. We work with cacao in sacred ceremony, with the rhythm of the cycle you are in, with prayer and intention as a daily practice, not a special occasion.
My retreats are sanctuaries where women feel safe enough to tell the truth. Through ceremony, movement, and shared experience, we cultivate joy, grief, and everything in between because all of it belongs.
I don't do surface-level. If you're here, you're here to feel it all.
Every ceremony is a sacred journey to heal, connect, and thrive.
Welcome to your journey of reclaiming your magic.
Love Cass x

Ceremonial Space Holding for Retreats
For women to truly receive the depth of what your retreat offers, the space must feel safe, sacred, and energetically held.
This is the space I hold.
I weave potent ceremonial openings and closings that anchor your retreat in deep intention and spiritual support, ensuring the women feel grounded, open, and ready to drop fully into the journey.
I begin by opening the space with heart medicine cacao, attuning the group to love, presence, and connection. Through prayer, I call in the benevolent unseen beings of light, guides, and guardians of the land inviting their protection and guidance throughout the retreat. Each woman is gently cleansed with black tobacco smoke, a sacred plant ally that clears stagnant energy, opens the heart, and prepares her body and spirit to receive.
This isn’t a nice-to-have—it’s essential.
The ceremonial opening creates an energetic threshold that separates the sacred from the everyday. It marks the shift into retreat space, where healing, remembering, and transformation can truly unfold.
At the end of the retreat, I offer a closing ritual to integrate the journey, offer gratitude, and lovingly seal the container so each woman can return to her life with clarity, softness, and soul.
If you're holding deep space for women, this ceremonial container isn’t just supportive, it’s necessary.
Let’s co-create something sacred together. Get in touch discuss...
“My mission is to help women connect back with themselves”
My Healing Journey
I was born in Newcastle and raised in Brisbane. A stint in Dubai, twelve years in Sydney, and now the Northern Rivers is home. At 43, mumma to two boys, I feel more alive than ever, thriving well outside of society's timeline for how a woman my age is supposed to look and live.
I spent a decade in the corporate world hustling energy drinks, luxury liquor, flavoured water and it completely drained my life-force. Over a decade ago I transitioned into wellness. Bondi's fitness culture nearly broke me: the pressure to be lean, fit, permanently "on," the overtraining, the under-eating, the anxiety it created. I was navigating marriage and divorce on top of it, my nervous system barely holding.
The real turning point came when my mum was diagnosed with cancer. I took back control of my health — removed my implants after eleven years, started working with my cycle instead of against it. And I found real solace in cacao, which held me through the hardest chapter of my life: my mum's passing and my own pregnancy, happening at once.
What I carry now isn't a technique. It's a relationship with the elements, with nature, with the guides who walk with me in this work. Prayer and intention aren't a ceremony thing. They're every single day.
I love my daily rituals, meditation, movement, connecting with my guides, heart check-ins, sipping cacao in front of my altar. These keep me anchored.
I'm also stepping into music as a DJ bringing more joy into the world through epic beats and shared movement.
Now, through my retreats and ceremonies, I guide women back to themselves. I wear my heart on my sleeve, sharing my own raw experience so the connection is real, not performed.
WORDS FROM THE HEART
“I loved being held in such a contained and sacred space. I received beautiful connection to the elements and a remembering of who I am and where I have come from. It was such a special time after navigating a very challenging postpartum. Cass is an incredible ceremonialist and I feel very grateful to have received from her. I can't wait for my next one.” - Hollie
“I’ve learnt to turn to cacao when I want to quiet the world around me and drop into my heart for healing and answers. Ceremony with Cass takes me to a place where my intuition and needs are heard loud and clear. It’s a sacred space to experience joy, grief, calmness and connection.” - Monica
“Ceremony with Cass is such a gift! She so powerfully led me into my heart so that I was in full receivership of the present moment. I felt so grounded, nourished and connected to a higher wisdom. For me the journey was so unique, I loved all of it, the music, the Reiki, the way Cass brought through the indigenous wisdom of the medicine. Feel very lucky to have journeyed with her.” - Jessica
