Don't let life just happen to you. Live intentionally with purpose and meaning.
Every choice – big and small – led you to where you are now. Take the time to reflect on how you want to be and what you want to do in your one life as you discover who you are at your best.
Identify the thoughts and limiting beliefs that hold you back and learn tools to tap into your wise self that will have you moving forward with ease.
Leave the weekend with one of your goals clearly mapped out and get the guidance and accountability you need with our post retreat coaching call.
This Vermont Mountain Escape is the perfect time and place to quiet your mind and relax your body as you develop a plan to reach your meaningful goals.
Three days. No obligations or distractions.
A quiet spot in the mountains of Vermont, chef-prepared meals, and a Thrive Program to give you clarity on your purpose and direction.
And most special of all - the deep connection and community where like-minded women hold space for one another.
You’ll go home with a clear mind, full heart, and a plan in place to get you where you want to go.
