Willows Locket

LOVE watching how everyone makes Willows’s their own! How adorable is this little flower bar?!? 💐🌻🌷

I’m so excited to introduce you to the new owner of Willow’s Locket—Jennifer Ferry of Enchanted Events St. Louis 🤍

This transition feels beautifully serendipitous. Jen was our very first client and has been hosting events here ever since. Over time, she shared her dream of owning a venue of her own—and I truly couldn’t imagine a more passionate, creative, and ambitious person to pass the baton to.

As she was feeling called to expand, I was feeling called to soften after decades of hustle. Neither of us expected this timing… but here we are. Fully trusting God’s plan ✨

So what’s next for me?
I’m easing into a gentler chapter—mentoring Jen during her first year as a venue owner, spending more time at the lake, soaking up moments with my granddaughters, and slowly returning to the work that has always lived at the core of who I am.

Before Willow’s Locket, many of you knew me as a yoga instructor and wellness coach. I owned two yoga studios, a spa, and a café for many years—until Covid shifted everything. Now, at 50, my heart is craving deeper connections and far less management of things.

For the past few months, I’ve been quietly creating something called Back to Barefoot. It was originally going to be a branch of Willow’s Locket—but now we are free to wander. 🙌

We’ll be hosting gatherings, classes, retreats, and experiences here, throughout St. Louis, and beyond (think Costa Rica!).

Nothing new really… just a return.
A remembering.
A coming home.

✨ Back to Barefoot ✨
A grounded community of women choosing soft power over hustle, honesty over performance, and friendship over competition. A nomadic hearth for classes, retreats, adult play dates, travel—and of course, Barefoot Brunches. Shoes optional. 🤍

I would love for you to be one of our founding sisters.
