Breakout Sessions:
-
Yoga, Meditation, Breathwork, Zumba, and possibly an outdoor walk (weather depending) by experts in their fields. Don't worry, you won't be getting your sweat on for this session. It is more about the benefits of stillness, gentle movement, and play than it is about fitness.
-
Therapeutic Journaling and Facilitated Roundtable Discussions by a certified therapist. We will not ask you to bare your soul to others unless you want to. No need to share if you don't feel comfortable. We support you at whatever level you feel comfortable. Remember, this is a safe, non-judgmental zone. And you might just find that you hear others say, "Thank you for sharing that. I thought it was just me."
-
Retail Therapy - Shopping at our vendor show, curated especially for us ladies!

Frequently Asked Questions:
While some of our speakers may share insights from their personal spiritual journeys, there's no religious focus here. Also, be prepared - there may be a few colorful words dropped along the way!
Nope!
We are not going to ask you to bare your soul. You can be a silent spectator all day if you wish. You share and socialize at your own comfort level! Just know that you are not alone and you might find the support you need by being willing to be vulnerable and hear other women say, "Thank you for sharing that, I thought it was just me!"
Absolutely not!
This retreat is all about YOU, so you are free to do as little or as much as you'd like. There will be no expectations or judgements from us. We support you at whatever level you are at.
No
No one will be getting their sweat on for this retreat! We will be doing some gentle movement that will be more about stillness and being present that it will be about fitness. We will also be doing a little moving that will be more about play than exercise. This retreat is a no workout zone!
No!
We will end around 9:00pm on Saturday night, so unless you live in Miles City, you will want to get rooms for you and your group. Enjoy spending the night, sleep in, go to breakfast, and enjoy a slow Sunday morning with your friends! Sunday is about taking the day off to connect and relax!
Probably so.
Please remember this is a space for women to come take care of themselves CHILD FREE. However, I understand that sometimes you need to nurse or care for infants (I've been there), so I will leave that to your discretion.
Use your best discretion.
You should either wear or bring comfortable clothes and shoes. We will be doing some gentle movement as part of our wellness activities.
Comfortable clothing and shoes.
We really believe you will miss out if you miss any part of the day, but we would rather have you for part of the event than none of it! However, there are no half day tickets available, so you will still have to pay the full price.
Yes, but we hope you can make the whole day.
No ticket refunds will be issued. You may gift your ticket to another person, though. Please let me know if there is a change of names on the ticket.
No
Each person will receive a SWAG bag (goody bag) upon arrival, so you will have all the supplies you need. (Unless you are like me and have a favorite pen that is a requirement at all times!)
Just you and your comfy clothes and shoes.
Lunch will be provided for you on site. Dinner will be on your own. Go get some cocktails and enjoy some fun conversation with your girlfriends!
Lunch will be provided, dinner is on your own.
Feel free to come solo - you'll be welcomed with open arms! This retreat is all about building new connections, meeting amazing women, and enjoying a fun, relaxing experience together. Whether you come alone or with others, you'll leave feeling refreshed and inspired!
Personal story. I recently attended a weekend retreat by myself. I was really nervous about it, but I am so grateful that I did. Without a group to lean on, I was forced to step out of my comfort zone and talk to other people I wouldn't normally talk to. I was inspired, touched, and enlightened by the stories these women told. I made new connections and got to know women I wouldn't normally have taken the time to talk to. It was a very positive experience. So if you are nervous about coming alone, I just want to encourage you to go for it!
Absolutely not!
