A One-Day Hill Country Retreat for Women Ready to Choose Themselves

“The Mid Life Revival Retreat was just what I needed. I have been struggling with work stress, hormonal changes, and just life stress. I needed a break to reset. This was the pause I needed. Time to reflect, rest, and connect with other amazing women.”

“I wasn’t sure what to expect going into the retreat, but I felt completely taken care of from the moment I stepped into the house. The gift bags made me feel so appreciated and the food was amazing. The message that I could literally do whatever I wanted, ALL DAY, was amazing and freeing. “

- Mid Life Revival Retreat Participant

“Mid Life Revival Retreat was wonderful. Having time to reflect, relax, and have meaningful connection with other women is so needed. It felt nourishing in the best ways. Can’t wait for the next one!”

- Mid Life Revival Retreat Participant

“Entering a space with the intention to reflect and potentially be vulnerable and where you don't know anyone can be intimidating, but at the Mid Life Revival Retreat I felt safe right away. Not only were my experiences with the other participants positive, but the facilitators made me feel extremely welcome and valued. I felt highly considered and cared for.”
