Hosting my very first Live and Grow Retreat.
After years of dreaming and planning, one of my biggest aspirations finally came to life. Hosting my very first Live and Grow Retreat was everything I had envisioned and more. I am profoundly honored and grateful for the incredible women entrepreneurs who placed their trust in me and help make this dream a reality.
Our retreat unfolded in the stunning town of Breckenridge, nestled in the heart of the majestic Rocky Mountains. The serene and picturesque surroundings provided the perfect backdrop for growth, connection, and inspiration.
We began the retreat with a warm meet-and-greet, followed by fun icebreaker games that set the tone for meaningful connections.
Our morning kicked off with calming breathwork and yoga, beautifully guided by Aly of Song of the Soul Yoga. This grounding session helped us center ourselves before diving into the day’s activities. Afterward, we enjoyed a nourishing breakfast that fueled us for the intense business planning, brainstorming, and goal-setting sessions that followed.
During free time, we ventured into nature for a refreshing hike—a perfect opportunity to bond and soak in the beauty around us. When we returned, Aly had prepared a delicious meal waiting for us at the house. Despite the chilly weather outside, we embraced the cozy atmosphere indoors by indulging in some indoor s’mores.
The second day was filled with learning and laughter. Nina, our guest speaker from Productivity Guru, shared invaluable insights that left us inspired and ready to take action in our businesses.
Later, we shifted gears to headshots—a highlight of the day. What began as a professional photoshoot turned into an impromptu fashion show. We strutted down our imaginary catwalk, laughing and celebrating the moment together. This lighthearted activity was the perfect way to unwind after two days of intense learning and growth.
As the day wound down, we enjoyed another delicious dinner prepared by our amazing chef, Aly. We ended the retreat with a toast and awards, celebrating each participant’s unique contributions and achievements. It was the perfect way to close this transformative experience.

Live and Grow Retreat is about empowering women to thrive, transform, and lead with purpose. This experience was a testament to the power of connection, learning, and intentional growth.
I hope you enjoyed this peek into my very first Live and Grow Retreat.
