The Juggling Act
Retreat with
Dr. Terrlyn L. Curry Avery (Dr. TLC)
You are carrying a lot.
​
Not just your calendar — but the invisible weight of responsibility, care, decision-making, concern, and constant adjustment.
​
-
You are balancing work or business.
-
Family needs (e.g., spouse/partner, children, grandchildren)
-
Health changes.
-
Aging parents or other loved ones.
-
Financial responsibility.
The mental load that never seems to shut off.
And somewhere in the midst of it all… you have slipped to the bottom of the list.
This one-day retreat is an intentional pause —
a sacred interruption —
created for midlife women who are juggling two or more major life demands and know, deep down, that something has to shift.
​
Not by doing more.
But by returning to yourself.
​​
​
This Retreat Is for You If…
​​
-
You feel overwhelmed and stretched thin by life’s responsibilities
-
You know you need to take better care of yourself, but can’t seem to find the time or permission
-
You are navigating midlife changes, including honoring hormonal shifts
-
You are carrying the mental and emotional load for others
-
You long for space to breathe, reflect, and reconnect with your inner wisdom
-
You want something deeper than “self-care tips” — something meaningful, grounded, and restorative
​
This is not a retreat to fix you.
It’s a retreat to remember yourself.
What This Day Offers
Throughout the day, you will be gently guided through experiences that support both reflection and renewal, including:
​
-
Teaching and guided reflection on the juggling act of midlife

Practices for taking care of your sacred self without guilt

You will leave feeling:
​
-
More grounded
-
Clearer about what truly matters
-
Reconnected to yourself

Carrying both insight and practical ways to care for your inner life going forward​

What previous attendees have said about
Dr. TLC's retreat:
​​​
Terrlyn brings a combination of spirituality, power, and peace to her events.
They call you to stand up, claim who you are and walk in Spirit.
...opportunity to discuss personal trials as a group but flexible enough to address
our individual obstacles.
...allowed me to come out of my shell in a way that I never have before.
Connected with other women and identified with their stories.
Sisterhood, friendship, and healing was a gift.
Gave me a better look into who I am.
​​​​​​Who is your host?
I am Dr. Terrlyn L. Curry Avery, the creator of Pastology, the cutting edge field that focuses on the synergy between pastoring and psychology. I bring together spiritual wisdom and psychological insight in a way that is deeply compassionate, practical, and inclusive. My work honors the whole person — mind, body, and spirit — without dogma or pressure. I have over 30 years of experience helping individuals heal, grow, and manifest their greatness.
​
You will be held in a space that is both sacred and grounded, reflective and real.
I have a unique approach to working with you. I place the emphasis on your journey toward sacred intelligence: your ability to tap into your internal source in order to move toward intelligent choices. Those choices are intended to honor the Sacred and help you manifest your greatness, while simultaneously embracing the humanity of those around you.
This platform for change is designed to help you understand that all of your relationships – the Sacred, the Self-ish and Shared – overlap throughout your lifetime.
I believe that ‘relating’ on both a spiritual and human level is crucial to helping your life flow in a positive direction. The journey towards your sacred intelligence enlightens you, and as you nurture your relationships, allows you to live out your full potential.

An Invitation
If you’ve been telling yourself “I’ll take care of myself later,”
if you’ve been holding everyone else together while quietly running on empty —
this is your moment to pause.
You don’t have to earn rest.
You don’t have to justify care.
You don’t have to keep juggling without support.
This day is for you.
