RETREAT RENEWAL OVERVIEW
Our first collaboration was excitingly highlighted in Entrepreneur and Due in an April 2025 article, “Why Prioritizing Wellness is a Smart Financial Strategy for Women.” This is a perfect reminder to focus on ourselves, and we are inviting you to take time to turn inward and focus on ‘receiving’ before the holiday season where you will inevitably focus on ‘giving’!
We’ll move our bodies, expand our minds, build connections with a vibrant, like-minded community, laugh, and yes, celebrate life by saying, “cheers” with our favorite beverage!
- Learn how to connect or reconnect to your inner warrior
- Dive deep into the experience of four or five nights focused just on you to reconnect to your inner light through yoga and your outer glow through holistic skincare
- Seasons of a Woman’s Life discussion
- Be inspired through the joy of movement, mantras, breathwork, and journaling
- Take time for self-care that will nourish your soul in this new cycle
Know that by saying yes, you are on the path to cultivating radiance
THOUGHTFULLY-DESIGNED ITINERARY
During times of transition, it is important to tap into our inner fire and to identify what it is that we are releasing this season. Each major transition in life involves “bridging.” As we move from one stage to another, there is an in-between time that represents the transition. This is the magical space between the in breath and out breath. We will identify what it is we are moving away from, journal any feelings that come up, share what feels right to share with the group, and then offer what no longer serves to the fire of transformation.
