Dare to Lead™ RetreatA 3-Day Immersive Experience for Courageous Leaders
Step away from the noise of everyday life and into a space designed for depth, connection, and growth. The Dare to Lead™ Retreat is a 3-day, small-group experience based on the groundbreaking research of Dr. Brené Brown. This intimate and casual retreat is intentionally designed to foster authentic conversation, personal reflection, and meaningful connection.
Whether you're leading a team, an organization, or simply striving to lead from your values in everyday life, this retreat offers a powerful opportunity to build the courage and clarity needed to lead with integrity. Together, we'll explore the heart of daring leadership: vulnerability, trust, values, and resilience—while holding space for honest dialogue and personal insight.
What to Expect:
- A relaxed, welcoming environment with a small group of like-minded leaders
- Guided conversations, reflective exercises, and transformative Dare to Lead™ content
- Time to slow down, reflect, and connect—both with yourself and others
- Practical tools you can take back to your personal and professional life
This isn’t just a leadership workshop—it’s an invitation to be seen, supported, and strengthened as the leader you are becoming.
Come as you are. Leave with renewed courage, clarity, and connection.

"The true value of in-person workshops and leadership development experiences is when the leader/facilitator fosters trust, contemplation and authenticity - and space for real human connection. Leah Brown, CDTLF, CDC® has done an incredible job facilitating the Dare to Lead content designed by Brené Brown - from the welcoming, inclusive environment to the pace at which she’s taking us through.
