Meet Your Creator & Retreat Host
Cortney Scott
Cortney Scott is the creator and host of Returning Home: Remembering Wonder & Joy. She is passionate about helping women reconnect with who they truly are and trust the beauty that already lives within them.
Cortney believes that beneath the expectations, responsibilities, and noise of everyday life, there is still a part of us that remembers wonder, joy, and freedom. Through playful, heart-centered experiences, she creates spaces where women can soften, reconnect with themselves, and rediscover the magic of simply being.
Her deepest intention is for each woman to feel seen, valued, and welcomed exactly as she is — and to remember that the beauty and joy she may be searching for has been within her all along.
Return Home was born from Cortney’s love of bringing women together in spaces of creativity, trust, laughter, and meaningful connection.
