Group Retreat Experiences (2-250 people):
Uniquely designed retreats are always powerful experiences. Free to Be Wellness Retreats include time for learning, reflection and connection unlike shorter coaching sessions or workshops can offer.

Monthly pre-retreat planning calls with retreat organizer to design content and schedule. Emails communication between calls available as needed.
