Reignite Your Inner Flame: Oceanside | From Surviving to Thriving

This is for you if you've invested in your growth and something still isn't quite hitting right. You don't need another framework. You need a day that trusts you to know yourself and actually makes it fun.

This day will feel like a mini retreat!

• Welcome bag curated specifically for this experience
• Beautiful ocean views
• Fun atmosphere with music and engagement with others
• Impactful conversations that bring you back to yourself
• Experiential conversations to provide tools you can integrate into life
• Local vendors with curated experiences and handcrafted products
• Coffee side chat with speakers
• Ample time to find your community, wander on the beach, unwind, interact with vendors
• Fun closing reception.

You will leave with permission to be exactly where you are, clarity on what your inner voice has been trying to tell you, and real next steps that come from you -- not from a checklist someone else built.

This year's keynote is Brian LaFontaine: actor, speaking coach, and creator of Speak Easy, with credits in Ozark, Stranger Things, and Outer Banks. His talk, Beyond the Spotlight: The Art of Personal Reinvention, is the kind of session people talk about for years.

A portion of every ticket supports Be Humanitarian, helping break the cycle of poverty in Guatemala through education, nutrition, and community support.

• "Heather's retreat experience was, hands down, one of the most uplifting and soul-filling experiences I've had in years. I arrived hoping for a little calm before the holiday chaos, but what I found was something far deeper -- true restoration. Dr. Heather Kidwell has a gift. The science-meets-soul balance she creates is rare, and it made the entire retreat feel both refreshing and trustworthy."
• "Heather is an exceptional coach who guided me with clarity, compassion, and deep insight. She introduced me to the powerful concepts of psychological safety and emotional intelligence, transforming the way I show up in both personal and professional settings."

I know what it looks like to have it together on the outside while something quieter is happening underneath.

I spent years in corporate America building high-performing teams, leading executive experiences, and weaving the human side into spaces that usually forgot it existed. My job was to hold the room together but for 2.5 years of that work I was totally burned out and could barely recognize myself.

This experience is what led to my doctorate and my mission to gain clinical recognition for the convergence of depletion types that lead to people feeling like they are quietly fading away while showing up for others.

Summits are the large-scale version of my work. I also work in intimate small-group and 1:1 with people to show up for them in a way that is deeply impactful.

Reignite exists because I needed it first. I hope to see you there!

Info: Real speakers, real stories, honest frameworks. Nothing you have to figure out how to apply later -- each session ends with two things you can actually use immediately.

Info: Step outside. Feel the sun. Talk to someone interesting. Wander through the vendor experiences. This is unscheduled time that ends up being some of the best time.

Info: More speakers, then a live panel where you can actually ask the questions you've been sitting with all day. This is usually where something clicks.

Info: Music, ocean, good people, and a glass of something. You earned this part.

Info: Seven speakers. Small tables. You rotate through all of them with direct access and focused time to apply what landed for you on Day 1. This is not a recap -- it's where Day 1 becomes yours.

Info: The full group comes together and you build your actual next steps -- not notes, not inspiration, a real plan you can follow starting Monday. Dr. Heather Kidwell guides the session so nothing stays vague.

Info: A grounding wellness experience to close the weekend, followed by a toast to the plan you built and the next chapter you're already walking into.
