Deep Dive

Walk in Confidence

On our first evening, we will have some ice breaker activities to help everyone get to know one another. 

Most of us at this stage of our lives have suffered sorrow and had accomplishments.   

We often talk about the bad, rather than the good so let's change our mindset and celebrate our growth.  It's time to let go of the past and embrace your future.

And on the final day, we will discuss our  "Serenity Now"moments.

You will be surprised how close you can become with others in such a short time sharing your tears and laughter. 

Forest Bathing

(No, we don't mean you're going to have a bath in the forest.  But you can bring your swimsuit if you want to jump in the pool!)  

"Shinrin- yoku"  -  Japanese noun for forest bathing.

Being in nature is the most healing thing you can do.  It has the answers for those willing to listen.

During our hikes, we will show you how you can bathe in nature... allowing all of your senses to come alive, gaining a sense of peace & relaxation.  

Anytime you feel overwhelmed or unsure of your next steps, you can take a leisurely hike to gain clarity and gratitude.

Shed Labels

We will challenge the labels you have put on yourselves as well as those others have put on you.  

- Write your Death Sentence (again not literal)

- "Carry the Rock" Hiking challenge

- Top 5 Challenge

When done, you will have a better idea of who you want to be and lose the labels that don't serve you anymore, creating a path to become your best self!

Redefine Success

We will discuss "Love Languages" and you will be able to ask for what you need and deserve in your relationships.  

You will have an opportunity to journal and reflect with others on how you can change things in your life. 

Enjoy more Community and more Laughter with your new sisters.  You got this!

This transformative experience is crafted exclusively for the dynamic working woman who has overcome diversity in some form or fashion.

We believe that empowerment, rejuvenation, and adventure are essential fuels for the soul.

Our retreat is not just a break, but a rebirth; a chance to reinvigorate your spirit and rediscover your boundless potential out in nature.

Join us, and immerse yourself in an environment where sisterhood thrives, where every moment is an opportunity for growth, and where every woman shines brightly.

Your journey to revitalization and deeper connections begin here. 

MEET YOUR HOSTS

You'll be guided through nature and conversation by Gloria and Karen. We have been friends for over 20 years but lost contact due to relocations and marriage.

Thankfully, we stumbled upon each other on Facebook and realized we were both going through simliar challenges divorcing with young daughters.  We continue to support each other and look forward to this opportunity to get to know you!

Gloria is a single mom to three girls, two of whom have grown and moved on into adulthood. Her youngest, who is just 9, goes wherever Gloria goes as she works to inspire her daughter with strong relationships and values.

A strong foundation of powerful women who work to build each other up and support each other is an invaluable asset that Gloria can provide to her growing daughter. 

 

 

Karen: I am a strong single mom who doesn’t have to be perfect and can order pizza for dinner when I feel like it.  I am empathetic and honest with my friends & family.  I call BS when needed.  I am an independent thinker who is letting labels go that do not serve me anymore!  

I want to provide more adventures, opportunities for women in need.  We grow better together than apart. 

Let's help lift each other up!
