calling all widows & divorced Christian women
GO FROM GRIEF TO GLORY-BECOME GOLDEN
I KNOW WHAT IT'S LIKE!
I KNOW THE THOUGHTS RUNNING THROUGH YOUR MIND LIKE...
Loss of Identity- “Who am I now that I’m no longer a wife?”
Loneliness & Isolation- “No one understands what I’m going through.” “I feel invisible in church and in life.”
Shame or Guilt- “Was this my fault?” “Am I broken beyond repair?” “I should be over this by now.”
Disconnection from God- “Where was God in this?” “I pray, but I feel nothing.” “Is He still for me?”
Grief Over a Lost Future- “We had plans, hopes and dreams.” “Will I ever feel joy or be loved again?”
Exhaustion from Surviving- “I’m tired of pretending I’m okay.” “I carry it all alone.”
Fear of Starting Over- “What if I fail again?” “what if he dies?” “I’m too old / too damaged / too far gone.”
Judgment or Mistrust from the Church -“I feel like a second-class woman.” “People don’t know how to handle my story.”
It's in these thoughts, the enemy can take you down...
trying to do it alone leaves you vulnerable, and things get much worse.
Hi! Im Nathalie Benson!
A widow, visionary, prophetic strategist, and fierce champion for women who’ve walked through fire and refuse to let that be the end of their story.
After losing my husband and navigating the heartbreak that nearly swallowed me whole, I discovered a powerful truth: God doesn’t just heal what’s broken—He makes it glorious. That’s the heart behind The Kintsugi Experience.
As the founder of Recreating Life and The Order of Widows, I’ve spent years equipping women to rise out of grief, reclaim their God-given identity, and walk boldly into their next assignment. Through prophetic coaching, community, and Kingdom strategies, I help women rebuild—not as they were, but stronger, anointed, and golden.
This retreat is a holy ground encounter for women ready to stop surviving and start rising. If you're here, it's not by accident.
I’m here to walk with you, speak life into you, and remind you: God’s not done. You’re not done. The next chapter will be your most radiant yet.

THIS COULD BE YOU...
"My life is changed forever!” Those were my words when I returned home from Nathalie’s widows retreat last year. I went sort of kicking and screaming (inside of course!) thinking, “I really don’t want to spend a whole weekend with a bunch of grieving widows!” Oh, but of course… I guess I was one of them! After three full days of participating in various activations to help us ‘let go’ of what was and look forward to grasping the life ahead of us, I had a new mindset, a healed heart, and a willingness to truly move forward with my life! I have to say I had many major pivotal moments.Nathalie IS so filled with wisdom – not just from the Lord, but also from her own personal experiences. She knows how the widows think & feel and resonates with their pain, questions, and fears. I will be forever grateful for her obedience to the Lord in helping other widows. My transformation was and is beautiful fruit from that obedience. And the lifetime friendships I made there are also a lifetime treasure for me."

"I am going to be really honest here, I was not interested in any group of widows especially from a woman who did not look like me. I had come across @Nathalie Doss Benson offer a day after I had changed my FB status to widow. What drew me to her was this glow on her face. She seemed joyful. I was not joyful at all. I was hurt, disappointed, angry and despondent. I wanted joy, hope again but I didn’t know where to start. I joined her 3 day challenge and was blessed to become apart of her offer. She guided us through being vulnerable, honest and opened to Gods will, love and mercy. We were able to connect through zoom calls once a week to a 3 day retreat with other women who are so much more than friends. They are my family. We encountered the presence of God in a very real way. This was my first trip alone that was just for me. Not my kids or grandkids. I chose life after walking through the valley of the shadow of death and was reborn a widow warrior. I am indebted to this group of warrior widows until my last breath!"

"What a gift I received when I discovered the virtual event led by Nathalie Benson. The friendships formed and the weekly sessions helped me process walking through life without my husband. Even during major holidays, we would gather on a Zoom call so we could connect and encourage one another. At the end of the year, we were able to have a retreat held at Nathalie's home in Southern California, that impacted each of us. Once again, I was able to laugh. She helped us to close one chapter in our lives, and move on to the next. Meeting these ladies in person and spending three days with them was a gift I will treasure forever. Thank you, Nathalie, for the memories."

What Happens When You Say Yes to The Kintsugi Experience
This isn’t just a retreat. It’s a divine reset.
Women come in grieving, guarded, and uncertain.
They leave radiant, recommissioned, and whole.
Because of this experience, women have:
💥 Found their voice again after years of silence
💔 Released shame from divorce and grief they never told anyone about
🙌 Encountered God’s presence in a way they haven’t since their loss
🌱 Discovered their new identity—not as "used-to-be" wives, but as crowned daughters
💡 Gotten clarity on their next assignment, business, ministry, or purpose
👑 Felt seen, safe, and supported in sisterhood—not pitied
🔥 Reclaimed their authority and learned to dream again without guilt
😭 Wept through healing, danced in freedom, and left golden!
This is where grief meets glory.
Where trauma becomes testimony.
Where broken women rise golden—and never look back.
