Clarity Retreat

Do you have a growth mindset?

Do you like figuring out how to make life better?

Do you crave more connection in your life?

Do you enjoy exploring what’s possible?

Do you like laughter and eating food? (C'mon, I hope I got a yes here!)

Yes?! Then come out for a fun day of discovery and coaching at the October Clarity Retreat!

Bring yourself and anything you’ve been working on in your life.

Maybe you’re trying to improve your health or relationships.

Or you’re embarking on a new chapter of life or you're at a career crossroads.

Maybe you’re facing a tricky business or creative problem.

Or you’re just wondering how to have a better day-to-day experience of life.

Maybe you're feeling overwhelmed and discouraged by the world.

Or perhaps you need a new dust buster and aren’t sure which one to get. (Let’s talk about it!)

You may have been working on this problem for years, getting stuck and going around in circles (like that Roomba you've been considering buying).

Or you might just generally want to improve your life. And you’re feeling overwhelmed and unsure where to start.

Wherever you’re at and whatever you’ve got going on is welcome. (Spoiler - it’s all going around!)

Spend a day connecting with yourself, community, and nature through facilitated coaching exercises and watch how the experience catalyzes new insights and progress.

By attending a Clarity Retreat you’ll:

• Give your nervous system a safe place to land
• Take a break from daily life and current events
• Harness the positive energy of a supportive community
• Feel more engaged, clear, hopeful, and empowered about your own life
• Find new perspectives that crack open the problems you’ve been working on
• Connect meaningfully with others about our shared human experience
• Experience compassion, encouragement, and, if I’m on my game, some good laughs

The October Clarity Retreat theme is Busting Limits.

What if more was possible for you? More health, more love, more abundance, more peace, more creativity, or more rest?We all have default settings around what we’re comfortable experiencing that are often arbitrary and out of alignment with the actual range of life we can experience.We’ll be picking one area of life where you’re feeling limited or wanting more to consciously explore. We’ll be looking at the limits you've been living in, ways to test if these limits are false, and practical steps for allowing more into your life.By getting out of your day-to-day life in a fun, supportive environment you’ll be able to more clearly see what’s happening in your life as well as what’s possible.

You’ll walk away with a fuller cup, fresh insights, and the knowledge that you can plug back into this group over time to deepen your connection with yourself and others.

Clarity Retreats are set up as regularly held events to provides a built-in community aspect. (Mark your calendar for our next Clarity Retreat January 9th!)

You'll experience a safe, accepting, high connection container where it feels normal and comfortable to both share what’s up for you and hear what’s going on for other people. This is the part that will help you connect to and process what you're feeling naturally and at your own pace.

While there will be plenty to do during the field trip, there will also be a segment of free time for any sort of rest you’re needing. Listening to your body and making choices based on that knowledge will be highly encouraged. This will give you access to rest, in whatever form you need.

We’ll also be walking (about 2.5 miles throughout the course of the day at an easy pace), engaging with fun coaching and activity exercises, eating good food, spending time together in kindness and laughter, and generally making life better together over time.

Give yourself a Friday off to pay attention to your life and intentionally create it. (Bonus! You’ll still have your entire weekend to do as you please.)
