Here’s what our participants from previous years had to say.
What I liked best about our Fall Camp retreat:
WHAT I LIKED BEST ABOUT FALL CAMP:
"Giving myself permission to do something for me."
“I’m inspired To be more open to new things and to continue building my connections with amazing women.”
“The balance of creative time and informal time between to connect with people.”
“Connection and… cheese!”
"The open mindedness & learning mindset of the participants."
“I loved making the facial/body scrubs - so many choices! I also loved the journal even if it was a bit difficult for me. It will be something I will continue to use for a long time. The closing ceremony was also very nice.”
"Having the opportunity to get away and just relax, while at the same time, making deep connections with old friends and new. Creating, laughing and learning together was a very powerful thing. I honestly didn't know what to expect and it was phenomenal!"
"Meeting a group of wonderful people and connecting in a non-judgmental environment that fostered my creativity. I loved everything about it."
"The profound sense of openness and authenticity of the attendees."
