How my retreat evolved into something even better
I want to start by thanking those of you who expressed your interest in my Ease + Enchantment Retreat at Ojo Santa Fe Spa and Resort.
And to those of you who took the time to fill out my survey and share your beautiful vision of what your dream retreat is like: thank you so much!
After receiving your feedback, I dove in head first - into [color-coded!] budget spreadsheets, communication with the venue, designing an inviting sales page, and researching all of the logistics.
I was so excited about sharing this magical place with you that it became a real labor of love.
And then...
A little, very persistent voice inside of me was certain that something wasn't right.
I was getting all tangled up in the logistical components of the retreat. Analysis paralysis, anyone?
I started to feel sad that I couldn’t offer this retreat to you in the way I had hoped.
And I began to make this mean all sorts of judgy things about me.
I felt like the girl who cried "retreat!"
Being new to leading group retreats, it felt like there was soooooooo much I didn’t know.
One thing I DO know: I can't force it.
Especially when it's called the "Ease + Enchantment" Retreat!
It was then that I realized - in order to help more women experience ease and enchantment in their lives, the only way for me to create this offer was to embody both of these qualities myself!
Especially while designing the experience.
So I revisited them and why they matter.
Ease: “absence of difficulty or effort.”
Enchantment: “a feeling of great pleasure.”
I pondered on how I could start really small and share this place I love with amazing women like you.
And after a lot of reflection, I’ve come up with something even more easeful and enchanting.
I'm offering three 1:1 days with amazing women who are craving more ease and expansion and want to tap into it in Santa Fe, New Mexico.
I’d be in Santa Fe from November 9-12, 2023 and you'd choose one of the following 3 dates:
Thursday, November 9th
Friday, November 10th
Saturday, November 11th
And you and I would have a full day together focused on you in this magical place.
Allow yourself to fully surrender to the tranquil, spring-fed waters at Ojo Santa Fe.
It would be like a "VIP Day!"
Even though I think the term "VIP" is ridiculous because I believe that everyone is important, so we won't call it that.
We'll call it the Ease + Enchantment Day.
Whaddya say?
Do you want to meet me HERE and devote a full day to allowing more ease and enchantment into your life?
Here's how it would work...
☎️ We'll design your Ease + Enchantment Day on a 1-hour call one month before we go to Santa Fe.
🔮 What’s getting in the way of you experiencing ease and enchantment in your daily life? Maybe you need to set stronger boundaries, give yourself more permission to have fun, or ask for help. We'll design a customized agenda just for you that has space for both focused coaching and free time for you to follow your own intuition. That might include: taking a solo dip in the hot springs, reading a book from a cozy hammock, or exploring one of the high desert hiking trails in Ojo Santa Fe’s majestic 77 acres.
🗺️ I'll give you all of the information that you'll need to book your travel (I'm happy to give you the contact info of a travel agent friend of mine if you'd prefer to hand it all off!).
✈️ You'll send me your travel information.
☎️ One week before we meet up, we'll have a 30-minute call to talk through what you're excited about, what you're nervous about, and how we want to tweak our agenda so it best suits exactly what you're needing and wanting now.
🫐 The morning of your Ease + Enchantment Day, you’ll meet me for breakfast at Ojo Santa Fe Spa and Resort's on-site restaurant - The Blue Heron - for Blue Corn Piñon Pancakes and a Lavender Latte (or whatever you want!) and we'll begin our day together in an easy, spacious way.
🦋 Your Ease + Enchantment Day will give you access to deep ease and enchantment felt in your body, mind, and soul. And you'll learn how to tap into these qualities even after you leave.
☎️ One week after our day together, we’ll do another 1-hour call to digest and debrief the ripple effect of choosing you for one full day.
💌 You’ll also receive one month of email and voice note support from me to help you integrate what you learned in your Ease + Enchantment Day into your daily life back at home.
I'm offering this because so many of us high-achieving, nurturing women have waaaaay more practice taking the hard route by ourselves [and then feeling resentful about how depleted and burned out we are].
This force is so strong that I had to stop and reroute even in the process of creating this retreat!
I’m excited to invite you into a beautiful, transformative experience far away from the demands of your daily life that’s fully dedicated to you!
I'm a big believer in the growth, expansion, and previously unseen possibilities that are created with a change of scenery.
And I want that for you.
I wonder…
Where are you making it hard?
Where can you bring more ease and enchantment into your life?
What might be possible then?
Does this idea give you goosebumps too?
Or spark a little ✨ glimmer of magic somewhere in your body?
Let me know if you're interested by replying to this email and we'll begin to co-create a beautiful experience customized just for you.
Oh my goodness. I'm beaming about the possibility of soaking in the warm spring-fed thermal pools in the high desert with you.
Sending you warm wishes for a restorative weekend,
Stacy
