REFLECT 2025 Sunset Retreat
for coaches and healers
Thursday 9/11/25 - Sunday 9/14/25
Mears, MI

  • REFLECT

    Take stock of the last year. The shifts! The struggles! Where have you given yourself credit, and where have you not? Reflect on the patterns, blocks, growth, and how far you’ve come on this journey - as a coach, practitioner, and human.

  • RECONNECT

    Reconnect with self… with other coaches you already know and love, and meet new friends. Develop kinship with Lake Michigan’s unique energy and the uncountable grains of sand on 700’ of private beach a short walk away. We will be at the edge of land meeting unsalted water stretching to the horizon. As we reconnect, what starts to fall away that is no longer serving?

  • REALIGN

    This is an opportunity for deep work. To build awareness and acceptance, to transform blocks, and align toward who YOU are today and where your next steps are leading.
    Sunset is our golden hour where we bring in gratitude for today, and welcome in rest and the gift of a new day.
