27: Hosting a Retreat

Nine months ago I got the idea to gather like-minded business women in a house in the mountains, talking business, balance, and growth. Never could I have predicted how this experience would challenge me, uncover my gifts, and fortify deeply meaningful relationships.
On the heels of my first retreat — the Back to Business Retreat — I sat down and hit record to reflect on what it’s like to host a retreat and how it’s changed me and my business forever.
While I pride myself on always telling it like it is, I’ve never before shared in such a tell-all way as I am in this episode.
On this episode I’m sharing:
-
Why I was called to host a retreat for female business owners;
-
Partnering, planning, and launching the retreat;
-
What attendees were looking for and the deep, unexpected lessons they came away with;
-
What it meant for me to be pushed over the edge of my comfort zone; and
-
10 tips for anyone considering hosting a retreat.
