What couples are saying
"Broke through patterns that had been 26 years old in our couplehood."
Couples Intensive Participant
"It was an eye-opening experience of growth and connection, with my spouse and others. I would definitely recommend and look forward to continuing this journey. The setting was wonderful, the food was yummy and the experience surpassed expectations."
Couples Intensive Participant
"Before arriving at the couples retreat, I was a bit nervous about being vulnerable in front of the group. Once we all plunged into the work together, with the skilled facilitators holding us and guiding us, I felt like we were all in it together, growing and learning together and from each other. This was a safe place to go inwards, and to deepen my connection to my spouse and to others in the group. The bonus was that it was such a beautiful spot — glorious — and we had a lot of fun!"
Couples Intensive Participant
"My truth was reflected back to me in many ways, opening my eyes when I least expected it. I gained many practical tools to help me work on both our relationship and myself."
Couples Intensive Participant
"This was the reset our relationship longed for. We learned new things about ourselves and each other and we got playful and moved through feelings that had us stuck in old patterns. The retreat center was so beautiful, and we loved the amenities like the sauna, cold plunge and hot tub. We were nervous about the unknown, but we are filled with gratitude that we shared something so deeply personal and magical with this amazing group of people and each other."
Couples Intensive Participant
"What I found especially impactful was the way everyone's work became my work."
