Here's what women have to say...

"I haven’t laughed, lived or learned so much about myself and my new-found friends in such a short amount of time, it was worth every mile and every penny (and euro) it took to reach that place both physically and mentally.

I now have a new milestone aroud which to define myself...who I was before my THRIVE Retreat versus who I've become since.

I can’t wait until the next one!"

More details

THRIVE Retreats are for you if...

You like learning about yourself and ways to make your life the best it can be. An integral part of the retreat is exploring your strengths, challenging your limiting beliefs, and learning techniques to raise your positive emotions.
You like connecting with small groups of women. THRIVE Retreats are intimate by design. Group size is between 8-12 women.
You like traveling and exploring new areas. Getting outside of your typical environment, and experiencing new ways of doing things, help to shift your mindset and create the change you want in your life.

THRIVE Retreats are NOT for you if...

You are not interesting in learning about ways to think differently or exploring different ways of doing things.
You prefer traveling in large groups (think tour bus).
Traveling makes you cranky and you don't like stepping outside of your comfort zone.
