Traverse City Michigan Women's Winter Retreat- SOLD OUT!!  

February 2nd-4th

Reset and Recharge, Play and laugh....   Located on Traverse City's gorgeous west bay, this spacious, cozy home is out of the hustle and bustle but situated nicely between downtown Traverse City and Suttons Bay.  We will have a chance to relax, play, adventure and work on our own personal growth journey.  This will include fat tire biking, snowshoeing and hiking at an "all levels welcome and no drop" pace.  All activities, equipment rentals and meals are included (with extra touches to make your stay fun and special) but you are free to pick and choose what makes your heart and soul happy.

 Friday

Early availability on Friday any time after 4:00pm.  Upon arrival to our winter wonderland, you will be greeted by Julie and be able to get settled into your room of retreat.  A healthy meal awaits your arrival and so does adventure. We will be heading out to be fitted for our fat tire bikes and biking to a local favorite spot for refreshments and warm up!  This is all levels with path options for beginners to intermediate, side by side.  After playing in the snow, we will return and an evening walk through the woods or out on a frozen lake or bonfire chats are always possible.  We will conclude with time for retreat to rest and reflect.  

  Early start- sunrise intentions, walk and/or stretch. A warm, healthy breakfast is offered at the cottage with morning discussion. Following breakfast there will be an educational session on mindfulness, then an appointment with adventure! 

  We will meet with our tour guide and be fitted for snow shoes!  This tour will take us through the heart of wine country.  The pace is set by you and there are plenty of options for length of trails.  We will be resting and refreshing at the local wineries as needed and lunch provided to us on the adventure as well!

  The late afternoon will include another activity for all to enjoy and opportunities for growth and humility abound! It’s so fun to learn something new and connect in the nature that provides us those lessons. There will be time to get a little break from our activities to explore, shop  (individuals will cover the costs of their own shopping indulgences ;-)for this outing.  We will have dinner, relaxation and meaningful dialogue as we return to our lake house.

 Early start-sunrise intentions, walk and/or stretch. A healthy and hearty breakfast at the cabin will be offered and then packing and gathering belongings to commence following breakfast to make our 11am checkout. Feedback and emails are welcome along with the opportunity for continued accountability and training. 

We will set out for a last adventure as a group prior to the drive home to stretch and engage the legs and have our parting thoughts in nature or on water.  A healthy lunch will be offered to take on your journey home, along with a weekend of unforgettable memories, friendships and incredible personal leaps forward.
